The Vail Valley has a stable of staple restaurants — Pepi’s at Hotel Gasthof Gramshammer on Bridge Street, for instance, which opened in 1964; or the Coyote Cafe at Beaver Creek, serving ski patrol and others for over 30 years; or Gashouse in Edwards, a rustic restaurant in an old 1900s gas station building.
However, whether you’re a local, a regular weekend visitor or planning your return to the valley this winter or this summer — or next year — there’s usually a new place or two to try throughout the year.
The Know — Denver Post’s arts and entertainment section — recently featured two new restaurants to the valley on its list of “Five new restaurants to try in the mountains this winter.”
