I came with my flight crew (just a couple of pilots in addition) and we just sat at the bar. I had the kale rotisserie chicken salad. The peanut dressing does have soy sauce so it is not gluten free, so they brought me a champagne vinaigrette instead. It was delicious. I got this during the cyclospora outbreak, because I'm a wild person now lol but they assured me they only get quality ingredients and super clean all veggies and fruit coming in. My pilots got the meatballs, creamed corn, and deviled eggs and they LOVED them.

It has nice decor but its noisy as well and EXPENSIVE. $25 for a burger and $32 for a French Dip sandwich WITH NO SIDES? $7 more for a side of boring fries?! My wife ordered a diet coke and I a Shirley Temple. We were brought bottles (a tiny soda) to pour and mix our own drinks. And expensive. The QUALITY of the food was quite high and everything tasted fresh (except the boring fries). If you are a wealthy aspen socialite then maybe this place is for you...but if you are an average traveler....There has to be cheaper for similar quality. Maybe it's an Aspen thing...

I'm not sure what all the bad reviews are about! I visited Spring Cafe twice during my trip to…read moreAspen. They have plenty of vegan options, which was something I was concerned about finding compared to other restaurants in the area. Almost everything can be made vegan on the menu! The food is delicious and the ingredients are fresh. I ordered the vegan Chickpea Tuna Melt for lunch and the Blanca's Breakfast Sandwich with tofu eggs for breakfast. Both were so incredibly delicious! My husband ordered the Superhero Burrito for breakfast and he said it was good and filling. I did not have any issues with any of the staff that I encountered. Everyone was helpful and very kind. You order at the counter and choose your own seating with plenty of indoor and outdoor bistro style seating with beautiful views of the mountains from inside or outside! They bring your food directly to your table when ready. The only down side was the price, but that is to be expected in Aspen, especially with specialty ingredients to accommodate organic, fresh, and vegan. If you enjoy fresh and healthy food, i would suggest giving Spring Cafe a try!

The place has plenty of history and has been a social spot in Aspen for generations. The Old West vibe is still very much alive, which is rare in a city that has more hipster spots than anything else. My partner and I both enjoyed our cocktails. We sat at the bar, but there were plenty of tables too. Service was decent, if a little inconsistent. Our first server was fine but seemed somewhat checked out, while the second one randomly brought us bar snacks around our second drink (nuts, and they were delicious). Left me wondering why the first server didn't do the same. The cocktails are pricey, $20+ with a 22% gratuity automatically added to the check, but it IS Aspen after all. The local beers were fairly priced, which was a nice surprise.

Nothing specifically lacking as a restaurant but nothing really outstanding either. So when charged $15 for a small bowl of seaweed, $10 for a 3" long fried vegetable spring roll, and $48 for a small bowl rice with a sprinkle of steak (maybe 1-2 ounce) the enjoyment of the dining experience suffers greatly under the feeling of way overpaying. Based on other locations this meal might have been fairly priced at 50% less But it was Aspen and apparently the extreme pricing doesn't stop folks from attending. But value for quality should always be a strong guiding factor regardless of location.

Our experience at Meat & Cheese in Aspen was disappointing from beginning to end…read more To start with, the food was mediocre in every sense. The quality did not justify the prices, the flavors were forgettable, and nothing we ordered stood out. Unfortunately, what happened afterward was far worse. My wife accidentally left behind a shopping bag containing a brand new pair of sunglasses she had purchased earlier that day. When she returned to retrieve them, our interaction with a server named Carson was deeply disappointing. Instead of simply confirming ownership in a courteous and professional manner, Carson repeatedly questioned whether the sunglasses were actually hers. He kept emphasizing that they were brand new and worth around $600, making it clear that he found it difficult to believe they belonged to her. It was impossible not to feel that she was being judged based solely on her appearance. There is absolutely nothing wrong with verifying ownership of a valuable item. In fact, we appreciate businesses that take lost property seriously. What is unacceptable is allowing assumptions and stereotypes to influence how customers are treated. One lesson worth remembering is that genuine elegance and long established wealth rarely need to announce themselves. Those who have had the privilege of success across generations often feel no need to advertise it with designer logos or outward displays. True class is reflected in education, humility, confidence, and, above all, in the way people treat others. Ironically, Carson's assumptions said far more about his own judgment than they did about my wife. No customer should ever be made to feel that they need to "look wealthy" in order to be treated with respect. We hope management addresses this issue seriously. The mediocre food was forgettable. Being judged and treated with prejudice is not. Every guest deserves to be treated with courtesy, professionalism, and dignity, regardless of how they are dressed or what assumptions someone chooses to make about them.
