Like many Aspen nightlife destinations, however, the experience improves considerably after a drink or two elsewhere first. The atmosphere has potential, but the space itself feels oddly underutilized, lacking the intentional flow and layered ambiance that define truly memorable bars. Cocktails are priced ambitiously even by Aspen standards, occasionally crossing the line to difficult to justify. Still, despite its shortcomings, it manages to deliver what most people ultimately come for: a lively crowd, an attractive room, and an undeniably good time if expectations are kept in the right place.

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 usually a smashed burger guy, but every now and then a regular one blows me away, and this one did. It's the only burger outside Denver on my top burger list. The whiskey onions added an extra layer of flavor, the sharp American cheese is the best cheese on a burger (I will not be convinced otherwise), and the potato bun was soft and pillowy. The deviled eggs were perfect, and I am just a deviled egg guy. Last Thanksgiving I made 150 deviled eggs for a party of 5, so I do not say that lightly. The Pretzel Hot Pocket was fine, just not my favorite. Their cocktails were fantastic, and I loved the No, It's a Cardigan and the Alexander Hamilton. The tea service was my favorite, a cocktail for two that came on a tea carafe. It was like tea service but actually fun because it had whiskey. The room feels like a cozy lodge, which fits the name, and I wanted to spend hours and hours there. Everyone was so nice. Best for whiskey fans, burger people, and anyone who wants a cozy spot in Aspen. It has to be a mandatory stop when you're in town, and I cannot wait to go back.

While wandering the snowy streets (and fancy hotels) of Aspen one Saturday morning, we came across…read morethis gem located inside the Hyatt and made a pledge to return during operating hours. So glad we did. On our last night in town, we had reservations at a restaurant down the street and came here for a pre-meal beverage. Upon entering the Hyatt, a see-through fireplace to the left serves as your initial glimpse into the tasting room. Coming from the traditional mountain chic of the hotel, the Marble Bar's decor is strikingly different, with its HGTV clean lines / grey / white modern aesthetic. Yet it still manages to be wonderfully cozy with multiple small group sitting areas, complete with fur throws and the aforementioned wood burning fireplaces, as well as bar seating if that's more your thing. There is also an outdoor fire pit that looked tempting, but it was snowing pretty heavily, and we said another time. The place was quiet with only 2 other patrons when we first arrived, but after about 30 mins it was quite lively. The mixologist (not to sound pretentious, but 'bartender' just doesn't do her justice) was amazing. I'm so sorry I can't remember her name, but if I say Boston then it should be obvious who I'm referring to. She was a great conversationalist, excellent cocktail fabricator, and really helped get our evening off to a perfect start. We would have stayed longer if it weren't for those reservations. As for the most important piece, the beverages! We had 4 different whiskey based cocktails amongst the group, and all were absolutely fantastic - there was a lot of sharing. I had The Paragon and enjoyed it so much went home with a small bottle of the Moonlight EXpresso (not a typo) Reserve to try to recreate the magic. I was told it was one of the first liqueurs created by the owner, and the website has a recipe for cheesecake, which I certainly will be trying. The actual distillery is located in Carbondale (a road trip is clearly in order), but this tasting room outpost located in the Hyatt in downtown Aspen is very highly recommended.

The food was terrible, expensive and the staff seemed like doing their job was annoying to them. The gazpacho was so acidic I couldn't eat it. The baby lettuces that were supposed to have stone fruit, had a few pieces of fruit that looked like it came from a can. The rest of the ingredients were non existent and the chicken I added was a dry, tiny piece that was grilled, no flavor at all. My husbands pizza also looked terrible, I've seen better things come from a box. Our lunch cost is $100, we are always good tippers, we left 5%. If we weren't tired and hungry after a hike, we would have walked out to find better food.
