We’ve been coming to Vail for years, and Vintage is hands down our favorite place for breakfast—so much so, we went three times in four days this trip! The outdoor seating is perfect, with plenty of umbrellas to keep things comfortable whether it’s sunny or drizzling. What truly sets Vintage apart, though, is the incredible staff. From the moment you arrive, you’re treated like family. Tania is an exceptional host—warm, welcoming, and completely on top of everything. Lucija and Emma provided five-star service every time, going out of their way to make us feel special. We’ve come back to Vintage each of the last four years, and we’ll continue to return every time we visit Vail. It’s that rare combination of a beautiful setting, phenomenal food, and heartfelt hospitality that keeps drawing us back.

A Perfect Beginning to Our Weekend From the moment we arrived, this spot set the tone for a truly memorable start to our weekend. Atmosphere: Think classic cocktails with a clever twist, served in a space that blends modern elegance with cozy mountain charm. Food Highlights: • Squash Ravioli: Pillowy and rich, complemented by toasted hazelnuts, balsamic cream, arugamata, and wild arugula—absolutely divine. • Dandelion Salad: A fresh, crisp mix of dandelion greens and flowers, butter lettuce, cucumber, snap peas, all tied together with a honey vinaigrette and a dash of black pepper. • Desserts: The Blue Bird Crème Brûlée was both creative and comforting, while the warm peach cobbler à la mode was the perfect finish. Exceptional Service: The food and ambiance were top-notch, but it was the staff who truly elevated the evening. Jean, our server, was warm, attentive, and sincere. She and the manager were all smiles throughout the night and checked in often without being overbearing. When my mom raved about the sauce on the ravioli, the manager surprised us by bringing out the chef himself—who enthusiastically shared the story behind the dish. And just when we thought it couldn’t get any better, the three of them delivered our desserts with genuine joy. We rarely leave reviews, but this experience was too special not to share. Also worth noting—the current OpenTable menu doesn’t showcase the full spread, so we were delighted to find even more tempting options. The meal was affordable, family-friendly, and honestly, one of the highlights of my family member's week long trip to Colorado.
