We popped into the Base Camp a couple of weeks ago on a Thursday. They were busy, and you have to wait in line to place an order, but it goes pretty quick. The food is not just bar food, it's a cut above, and quite good. Naturally, Base Camp has a great selection of beers. The indoor seating is a noisy, and there was very little available, but this is summer in Grand Junction so we sat outside in their extensive patio area complete with stuff for kids. I think this will become a regular spot for us. read more

Base Camp provisions is a wonderful place to grab drink drinks or a meal. They have a good selection of craft beers, draft cocktails, handcrafted cocktails, and spirits. The menu is a bit overpriced, but it's versatile and solid elevated bar food served casually. You walk up order at the bar take a number seat yourself and bus your own table. Great indoor and outdoor space. There are a lot of lawn games and chairs. Perfect to hang out for hours if you'd like. The braised beef melt was a solid sandwich and my go to originally but it's no longer on the menu. The food menu is now very limited. I hope that they can focus on more sandwiches and bar food now that they seem to have added a lot of mussel and seafood options. read more

Mixed indoor and outdoor. Dog friendly outside. Bar is the focal point, but the food is excellent. Great service. Def recommend the smash burgers and the posole. Burgers are large and the bread is good. The posole is really good, spicy and tender. The beer selection is a total win. But good alternatives on cocktails. Worth stopping if you are in the area and well worth coming by from Junction. read more

Great to see this place up and running, has been eagerly awaited by most of us in Fruita. While they get used to being so busy, the menu is essentially bar food, which is well prepared. The fries are excellent, as is the calamari. Ordering is a pain, as you have to wait in a line at the bar, typically behind people who have been also in line for 10 minutes, then, at the head of the line, don't know what they want and have to find a menu. You'll get a number to take to your table, and a staffer will walk around for several minutes with your rapidly cooling food trying to find your table. I'm sure all of this will be improved with time! read more

Base Camp Provisions - Outside dining - Bars Near Me - Fruita, Colorado

Service: You order food at the counter, and someone delivers the food and drinks. A person did come by to clean up the dishes as well. Not full-service, but they do deliver the food and take the plates. Everyone was friendly. Ambiance: There were both indoor and outdoor seating. LArge windows that were open to the outdoors, so you still get a lot of fresh air. Outdoors, there were picnic tables in a large yard. Cornhole games, which were fun. Food and drink: Basic, but tasty. margaritas and beer were delish. read more

Started out loving this place because of its seemingly family friendly vibe and outdoor setting. I even included it in a guidebook I made for my Airbnb and brought out of town guests but there is one manager (not sure his title) that hates children. He's so rude and makes the vibe extremely hostile. He is always there. He came and told me that my child needed to be next to me at all times and stop running inside and screaming. She was doing neither. This is my 9 year old who is my best kid if he had told me either of my other two were causing problems I would have believed him. This girl never lies and he accused her of screaming and running inside which would have been extremely uncharacteristic. There were tons of kids so maybe he was confused but it's not really cool to falsely accuse a child and shame them in public. My daughter is also a perfectionist that takes everything to heart so no bueno. It messed her up. Just don't bring kids here if you come. Others that I come here with have had similar experiences. I don't plan on coming anymore. Basecamp GJ is way more chill and has much less bitchy vibes. Highlands is also a better choice if you have kids. read more

This place has the crispiest fish I've ever eaten and the tartar sauce was so flavorful. The burger was on the salty side but still good. Excellent outdoor patio areas (there are two) and ample indoor seating as well. They also have craft cocktails and local brews with fast service. It's family friendly and close to the park/downtown. Very clean. read more

If you aren't open have the door locked. After a 30 mile bike ride we walk in. 2:45 can we order a drink before the grill opens? Let me check, "he says No. " We get walked out the door. Strike 3 after many other encounters. read more

I had the banh mi, it was tasty but honestly didn't taste anything like a banh mi. It's just a good sandwich without true Vietnamese flavors. read more

Love this place. Love the vibe. It does get busy, so plan accordingly. One of the best burgers I've every had, and I have had it twice. Consistent and delicious. One of my favorite spots in Fruita. read more

This place used to be amazing. Fantastic food, great drinks, and wonderful atmosphere. For the last year it has had a very slow decline. We recently visited again after moving away and we were mortified at the quality of food and the general vibe of the place. Basecamp used to be the place however now all they serve is mediocrity. 1/5 star would recommend. Will not return. read more

We were lucky enough to be able to sit outside on a Saturday and enjoy a late lunch early dinner at Base Camp Provisions! Yum! We had stopped here previously to pick up a to go order and was thoroughly impressed by the food so we had to stop again. Per usual the staff were phenomenal! I indicated I had a dairy allergy and the bartender/hostess went to the back to ensure the items I ordered were dairy free (Banh Mi and Pozole). Thank you! When people take the extra step to check even, it gives me confidence that I won't get sick. Truly appreciated! We sat outside and enjoyed hot Chicken Wings, Banh Mi with Pork, Pozole, Fish N Chips, Beets and Cheese Salad, Saffron Aperol Spritz, and white wine. Absolutely delicious! Everything was incredibly fresh and full of flavor. The Saffron Aperol Spritz was awesome and so unique. The bartender also working the bar while we were ordering suggested it and said it was his favorite. I understand why! It was smooth, paired well with food, and was truly refreshing. Thank you for another great meal and great drinks! read more

Was in a rush to get back on the road. They were extremely accommodating. Will be back soon

We were very happy with our first visit to Base Camp. The smashed burgers were simple but excellent. The frites weren't as crisp as we would have liked, however, the 2 house made dips that came with them were very good. The prices are very reasonable, we will be back!soon! read more

Four of us sat down to Poutine, mussels, and fish and chips with iced tea and ciders. We agreed the menu had lots of items that sounded delicious but each of us felt we had the very best meal! The staff was friendly, too! Have no doubt, you will be glad you chose to eat here! read more

Great burger and fries! Service was quick and place was very clean. We will return anytime we're in Fruita!

Best food and beer in Fruita, hands down. Love this place! Great vibe, huge patio, staff is also really accommodating of my family's food sensitivities. All of the "BC" in house beers are gluten reduced by default, which is really cool for gluten sensitive folks. Expertly crafted brews of every major variety. read more

Waited over 25 minutes for our food when our friends who ordered before us AND after us both got their meals. Rude staff when we checked on our meals. Food was cold. Felt prejudiced against because we had kids with us. Would not recommend nor support this business again. read more

Friendly service. I really enjoyed the Pork Banh Mi. Cocktails looked good but I had a long drive so I got an NA Mule and it was refreshing. Food didn't take very long, and nice tables outside. read more

Used to really love this place. Unfortunately, staff don't care and won't do anything about unsupervised children running and screaming, literally kicking dust into our food on the patio. l guests on the patio were angry with screaming children and not a single staff member bothered to address the issues, stating "poor reviews" was the only avenue to eliminate the issue. Gladly taking my business elsewhere. read more

Delicious brussels & adult mac. Pozole verde was less brothy and more sitting in thick salsa verde but still good flavor!

The beer and other spirit selection is good. The food is also decent with many choices to select. Service is friendly and the ambiance is a good vibe. The place is crowded when you would expect. Recommend giving it a try. read more

They are awesome - great food, great beer, super friendly. Excellent dog friendly outdoor patio.

They've just opened and they're working things out. The first visit we ordered two burgers to split and fries. The burgers arrived cooked to perfect temperature. The monument burger is the best I've had in a long time. First time in a long time that my restaurant food was hot enough to burn my mouth (not in a bad way). The Mesa melt was cooked to perfection, both bread and meat, a little dry for me. The fries are real potatoes with big ol kosher salt. Second trip we had wings, fries, and the monument burger. Again the monument burger was perfection. It's not just luck. Because you can see into the kitchen I knew it was cooked by different staff. Which means consistency to me. Fries were hot and delicious again. Wing were good and hot, but I don't like dirty fingers so not my type of food hahaha. The staff is friendly and the atmosphere is pleasant and comfortable. If you're a native Coloradan like me, you know this is in the old JD's location. Still the original bar. They've preserved the bathrooms with a tiny update. They ladies room actually has free products for us girls. The beer is good too. I guess I should have started with that. You can bring your dog but it can't be in the food service area (gotta keep 'em outside). Actually watched the staff ask a man with an adorable puppy to take it outside. That's what scored your fifth star. read more

We visited Base Camp Provisions for the grand opening. We were here to visit with friends and family and was told about the Opening. Wasn't sure what to expect in the town of Fruita. What a great surprise tucked into this beautiful town. Some key highlights from our amazing experience: * Not your usual bar food - the restaurant is run and managed by Chef Josh with food that you don't expect at a brewery (e.g. Cuban Pork sandwich, Poutines in various combinations, mussels with amazing sauces, pozole and on and on; top this with amazing locally crafted beers and you won't go wrong and you will come back; * Fantastic selection of tap beers (17 or more!) - and if you are in Grand Junction, be sure to visit another of their locations - Base Camp Beer Works; our next stop for sure; * Ryan, the lead mixologist, knows his mixed cocktails and makes them with top shelf ingredients; * Then there is the seating and environment - great outside seating and large space for kids to run around and super pet and bike friendly; saw a lot of dogs and bicycles leveraging the outside areas; * Beautiful inside decorum - even with the natural beauty of the outside setting, the inside is just as beautiful and inviting; * Amazing seating inside/outside through the large, shuttered windows so you can sit on both sides - allows groups to enjoy both areas at the same time particularly with dogs * And not to forget the amazing outside acoustics for the incredibly talented live band (Wave11) contributed to the final awesome atmosphere. Can't wait to hear the next talented group to play in this perfect venue; and, * And finally, the staff who were running around supporting the Grand Opening crowd of smiling warm people, were all friendly, efficient, and helped maintain that Colorado hospitality, we natives know well. Of course, the Opening was hugely anticipated so the food line was long, but everyone seemed to say it was well worth the wait. We are coming back! Get the word out year round! read more
