Snowmass, Colorado, renowned for its picturesque slopes and vibrant community, has recently welcomed several exciting additions to its dining scene, enriching the culinary experiences available to both residents and visitors.
New Culinary Ventures
Lift Line Tavern at Viceroy Snowmass
Earlier this year, Viceroy Snowmass introduced Lift Line, a slopeside tavern designed to redefine the après-ski experience. The 70-seat establishment features an expansive outdoor patio with fire pits, offering a cozy ambiance. The menu, curated by Chef Matt Zubrod, includes hearty options like line-caught fish and chips made with albacore tuna, Lift Line chili with cornbread, and a wagyu raclette steak sandwich. The interior’s warm timber and textured stone accents reflect the surrounding Rocky Mountain landscape, creating a seamless connection between the slopes and the dining experience.
Slope & Hatch Expands to Snowmass
In December 2025, the Roaring Fork Valley’s beloved eatery, Slope & Hatch, opened a new location inside The Collective in Snowmass’ Base Village. Known for its inventive, globally inspired comfort food, the menu features items like Jerk Chicken tacos, Chorizo Hash tacos, Classic Chicago Dog, and Lamb Curry Fries. Owner Gregg Lemkau emphasizes a focus on top-notch ingredients and bold flavors, catering to a diverse clientele, including vegans, vegetarians, and meat-eaters alike.
The Flower Shop: A Retro Ski Lodge Experience
Another notable addition is The Flower Shop, a lively bar and bistro decorated as a 1970s-inspired retro ski lodge. Serving contemporary Australian and American comfort food, the menu offers eclectic options such as salt and pepper prawns, scotch egg, double smash burger, and Korean short ribs. The bar provides classic cocktails, cold beer, a pool table, and fireplaces, making it an ideal spot for kicking off the evening or winding down after a day on the slopes.
