Chipotle Bacon Burger (with Chicken substituted for beef) + fries
Kim J.

My go to spot when in Ketchum visiting family, for sure. Whether the breakfast chocolate chip pancakes or the lunch burgers or pressed panini, I'm happy when I leave. Note that if it's peak breakfast or lunch time there will be a wait so order online if you can. There's indoor and outdoor seating. Some shaded areas if you're lucky. Definitely worth a visit!

Turkey with chili
Kelsy P.

Not much can beat post-snowshoe chili. Bigwood impressed with their variety of freshly baked loaves and both hot and cold sandwiches. If you're looking for a solid sandwich, salad, or soup, this is it. Lots of baked goodies, chocolate chip cookies are great! The inside feels small at peak lunch hour but they are good at cleaning off tables. Full parking lot but street parking is available.

Breakfast burrito
Cole D.

Value of $12 for a fully packed burrito and roasted potatoes is a great deal. The burrito is delicious, full of egg, served hot and ready. The potatoes were terrific too. Love this place's oatmeal raisin cookies. Great seating.

Hamburger lol

Ordered the Philly cheesesteak, was not good. Bread, cheese, peppers, and not Philly cheesesteak. But pieces of CUT UP HAMBURGER PATTY!?!? So that's what you try and pass off as a Philly cheesesteak Description was "thinly sliced sirloin". No it was straight up a patty y'all cut up and put there. It was not thinly sliced anything. French fries were cold, had to reheat. Peppers were the only thing worth mentioning that were good and the amount of cheese was good. Sooo much bread no flavor. For a cheeseburger with bell peppers it was decent just bland. Pastries were good tho

Philly cheesesteak
Anastazia V.

Came here for lunch with some coworkers. This place is cute!! I ordered the Philly cheesesteak and it was delicious! I love the vibe of this cafe and they had great options on the menu. I demolished my entire sandwich. This is a great lunch spot!

Real ciabatta - no imitations here!

The service was fast and friendly from the moment we walked in. Our food came out within about 15…read moreminutes of ordering, which was impressive considering how busy they were. The portions were very generous, and everything was incredibly filling. Everything was cooked perfectly, from the eggs and breakfast items to the sides, and even the coffee was surprisingly good. It's not often you find a breakfast spot where both the food and coffee stand out. There was plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, making it a great place for families, larger groups, or anyone looking to enjoy breakfast without feeling cramped. Despite the steady flow of customers, the staff stayed attentive, checked in on us regularly, and kept the tables turning over quickly without making anyone feel rushed. Overall, The Kneadery offers great food, efficient service, and a welcoming atmosphere. I'd definitely recommend stopping by if you're in Ketchum and looking for a hearty breakfast or brunch.

Ambiance is super cozy, cute, relaxed and familial. I come here about once a year and I think it…read moretakes me a year to remember why! I'm definitely here for the flash-gordon-fast and very kind service, the ease of the menue, the deco (I didn't know how much I love wooden bears!) The deco is with a lot of bears both taxidermy as as also wood engraved/sculpured. The walls are covered with vintage Sun Valley posters, Fish & bait illustrations and carved bear deco. The bar has a decorative roof with a taxidermied bobcat and skiing stuff, which makes the Kneadery even more cozy and specially unique as a venue. The loss of a star comes from the blandness of the egg scramble, even though they use high quality eggs; the weird taste of the wonderfully presented whipped butter in a cup -- I love when non-ice-cream looks like ice-cream somehow. Is that real butter? Not discernible by taste. My stomach sadly reacted to that detail. I might need a separate conversation with my stomach about this, but it stays that it tasted weird also to my husband! In past years I would order an omelette with cheese and it came with a bland plain egg omelette folded in half and stuffed with cheese. Maybe an eggadilla (Huevadilla?) would be more of a correct description. Not sure if this technique is an American classic (sorry for slamming it), but I'd recommend to add the cheese to the eggs *before* frying the mixture. The cheesy richness of the cheese enhances the eggs tenfold! My hb really enjoyed his half order of the two-two-two menu item (2 pancakes, 2 poached eggs, 2 slices of bacon), just the egg was overdone and not even a little runny. Why is it 4 stars and not 3? I really hope the cook figures out cooking eggs one of these days. In the past, I have had the breakfasts with other people, and they all loved their orders which were non-egg-related.

We visit Sun Valley several times a year and have driven past Sawtooth Brewery Public House more…read moretimes than I can count. There is almost always a large crowd gathered out front, which usually tells you everything you need to know--but we finally made a point to stop in for lunch on a beautiful sunny day. The Brews Since it's a public house, the beer list is extensive. I opted for their Pilsner and Lager. Both were exactly what you want on a warm afternoon: light, crisp, and incredibly refreshing. The Food We decided to put their "best in town" claims to the test, and they did not disappoint: * Fish and Chips: They advertise these as some of the best around, and I'm happy to report they aren't exaggerating. The breading was perfectly light--not greasy or heavy--and the fish itself was delicate, flaky, and cooked to perfection. * BLT with Grilled Halloumi: My wife went with this, and the addition of the halloumi was a game-changer. Served on a pretzel bun, it was a unique and delicious twist on a classic. * The Fries: You can't have a pub lunch without good fries. These are those "just right" beer pub fries--crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. Easily my favorite style. Verdict The atmosphere was great, the service handled the crowd well, and the food was fantastic. We will definitely be back for lunch on our next trip. If you're in Ketchum, don't just drive by--give it a try.

It's a pub! Come in, order, and find a seat! They offer both alcoholic and nonalcoholic tap drinks…read moreor cans. So there is something for everyone! From the mug club, it seems like this is a local staple. There's trivia on Tuesdays. TVs on the walls. Picnic tables outside, if you're so inclined. I think some pubs just order from Sysco, fry it up and serve. Five stars because they're not doing that! Their food was "pub" but the elk burger was handmade and fresh, the pot pie wasn't out of a can thought the veg maybe been frozen not fresh, and some of the store bought stuff like their pretzel seemed better than a defrosted ballpark.

Presidents Day Weekend is one of the (if not THE) busiest weekends in Sun Valley. My kids wanted to…read moreeat at their favorite restaurant in the village- Village Station. Unfortunately, there was a 1 hour 20 minute wait! We walked over to Gretchen's remembering we had a pretty good dinner there last spring. They told us they were at capacity, but to grab the couches when they became available and it was the same menu and service. It took us about 15 minutes to secure a table in the lounge, which wasn't too bad. Since I had 3 very hungry kids with me who had skied all day we were ready to order, but our waitress was nowhere in site. I asked a few other staff members if we could order and they said they'd send her over, but we waited and waited. Finally she showed up and we placed our order right away: ahi tuna nachos, tempura green beans and trout. For the amount of time we waited for our food we could have waited the hour and 20 min at Village Station. They teased us at one point by bringing out plates so we thought our food was coming, but no luck. Our waitress continued to ignore us, but i waved her over a few times and each time she told us our food would be out in a minute....and then another 20 minutes would go by. I asked if she could bring out a bread basket to at least get something in the stomachs of these hungry children (and my stomach too). She said she'd so right away, but nope. Finally after I waved down several more staff our food came out. I believe it was about 90 minutes after placing the order. The food itself was fine and I think the ahi tuna nachos were the winner. When the waitress walked by again I immediately asked for the check because had a feeling that would take another hour. At this point I nicely explained my disappointment with the meal, but she just smiled at me and walked away. And as we were walking up the bread basket we had asked for at least an hour beforehand showed up. You'd think it was freshly baked bread for the amount of time, but the bread was as hard as rocks. This entire experience was 1-2 stars, but since I've had good experiences in the past and it was a busy weekend we'll go with 3 stars, but I won't be running back there during future trips. And I'll definitely stay away during busy weekends!

It was off season and right next to the ice skating rink, which made for a fun setting. This is exactly the kind of place to order a martini (blue cheese stuffed olives, of course) and it did not disappoint. Hubby and I split the corn chowder, which was delicious, and the meatloaf entree, which I am still thinking about two days later. Our waiter Aleksa was an absolute delight. Even the bathrooms were gorgeous.
