Food and drinks were fantastic, but the service was remarkable. We had a wedding welcome party in the upstairs area and received a rare level of care.

I already liked The Canteen but now hold them in a place of special regard. Plus...the jumbo pretzels.

We had leftovers and the next day someone in my family commented that the sourdough had gotten even more sour - it wasn't a bad thing, but more of an observation and a testimony to how legit the sourdough is! The Butcher's Block pizza is good and has a bit of a kick to it (possibly from the pepperoni). The Cheese was pretty standard and straightforward. Everything was tasty, but just not quite worth the price for me. Service felt a hair slow with getting seated and getting our orders placed, but it was fairly busy so perhaps they were a little short staffed. All in all, solid place for pizza if you're willing to pay for it

Very misleading tipping practice…read more We ordered from the Happy Hour menu, which was buy one, get one free. At checkout, the suggested tip showed 20% as about $12. I left a $10 tip, but after checking the receipt, I realized the suggested tips were calculated based on the full price before the Happy Hour discount, not the amount we actually paid. My $10 tip ended up being about 26% of the actual bill. The service was good, and I'm happy to tip for good service. But how much I tip should be my choice. If suggested tips are based on the pre-discount total, that should be clearly disclosed instead of presenting it in a way that can mislead customers. As for the food, everyone has different tastes. We personally found it average. Good service, but very disappointing lack of transparency.

Some of my favorites: -Peach burrata salad -Mezzaluna pasta dish -The branzino (unreal) -sides: eggplant dish, and the crispy potato. Service is friendly & attentive. Even when the restaurant was full, our table never felt rushed or dismissed. Dress code follows the overall Breckenridge feel of going to a restaurant looking and smelling nice. For parking I recommend checking out the lot directly behind the Riverwalk center. An easy 2 min walk that goes through the bridge and requires 0 crossing of streets. Wheelchair and stroller accessible through a nifty elevator found near the back. Will definitely be back with family and friends.

The entire area feels safe, inviting, and framed by gorgeous Mountain View's. What's more: This chic bistro/pure-kitchen concept offers both indoor and outdoor seating, which is phenomenal, and the variety of vegan options is a highlight. We ordered the Mediterranean Bowl, Pure Thai Bowl, and Summit Stir Fry Bowl, and we were very happy eaters. Their food bowls and tableware looked stylish, clean, and gorgeous, making the meal a treat to look at and to enjoy. Adding to the charm, we were especially lucky to have Ms. Lora as our server. She checked in on us periodically, made sure everything was perfect, and even offered to take pictures of us, what a kind gesture! Prices felt appropriate for the quality and freshness, and our food arrived in a timely manner.

She enjoyed it, but thought it was a little on the sweet side. I thought it was a lot on sweet side. I made my bowl not seem so sweet after all, which I took as a plus. Overall the food taste and quality was good and the service was friendly. I will base my rating on that. I do have one comment not having to do with the food or service. Stop reading here if you don't care. Pure Kitchen has a 4% "Competitive Wage Compensation" charge. I was surprised to see this charge on the bill and only later saw that it was in the fine print on the menu, with an "opt out" option (what brave soul is going to "opt out" and risk spittle in their food). Maybe it's my fault for not looking at the fine print on menu, but it's a food menu, not a used car contract. Just my personal opinion, but I believe if a restaurant wants to have "fair wages" for their employees, it is their responsibility, not mine. Raise food prices, lower profit margin, whatever, but please don't add another tax. It just doesn't seem right. I have never once complained about high food prices in any of my reviews because it is my choice to go out to eat. I could eat at home if I want to keep within my monthly budget. I have avoided going to other restaurants based solely on this type of "fair wages" charge and will likely not come here again for the same reason (no matter how badly I want to try their Lamb Burger). I am really VERY SORRY for getting on my soapbox. I don't typically rant, but there are certain things that I believe should be addressed. I'm probably not the only person who feels this way.
