Loaded nachos with Beyond "meat"
Brenna P.

I have visited Breck several times but had never stopped at Eric's before. We were looking for a place with good nachos and vegetarian options, so we decided to come here on a Tuesday evening after skiing. It was really easy to get a seat (around 5:30). I got the loaded nachos with Beyond "meat" and my wife had the falafel platter. The food came out quickly and the nachos were bomb. They come served with fresh salsa, guacamole and sour cream. I would love to try one of their pizzas sometime. There are several meatless options to choose from, including Beyond meat, soyrizo and chick'n. Eric's also has numerous TVs with all kinds of sports on, so it's a great place to watch games too. Service was good as well.

Salmon sandwich
Lianna B.

Such a cool spot and perfect for kids because there's an arcade outside the restaurant and lots of highchairs/boosters. The prices are really reasonable for Breckenridge and pizza was actually quite good. I really like the crust. The salmon sandwich was cooked perfectly and was better than half the salmon I have paid $50 for at upscale restaurants plus had a great sauce. Side salad is a $2 upgrade but massive, had lots of different veggies in it and comes with your choice of over 10 salad dressings. The carrot ginger one was yummy! It was my husbands birthday and they kindly brought a free dessert of our cookie with a candle. Street parking is $0.50 an hour. Highly recommend for a casual family dinner

Favorite sports bar in Breck! Visited years ago as a ski junkie and now back with Wife and Daughter! We were seated quickly with fast food service. Our waiter was friendly and tried to get to know us despite the place being packed on a Monday night. The wings were huge and flavorful. The potato skins left more to be desired as they were almost too loaded with cheese. The jalepeno poppers were straight out of the frier as I like them and there was a good kids menu with Mac and cheese for our daughter. The arcade outside the restaurant seating area is perfect for killing some time while you wait to be seated.

Garbage & Margarita Pizza

Perfect place for the family! We went twice on our week vacation to Breckenridge. Games for everyone & cool restaurant inside. Friendly staff with delicious food and drinks! A MUST try!

Oaxacan pizza on gluten free crust
Rachel S.

From my gluten-loving husband, Eric's has the BEST gluten free crust. And being gluten free for over 15 years, he's not far off. The crust is crunchy in just the right way, even on the bottom of the pizza, yet has that chew on the edges that it made me remember glutinous pizza. The Oaxacan pizza was a delight - very unique with great balance of spicy from jalapeños balanced with the creamy cheese and black beans. Eric's is a treasure, I remember running around the arcade 20 years ago and now it's a great place to watch any sports game. We came solely to watch an Ole Miss game and the staff was so kind and patient with our 3 hour lunch

Stopped by for a quick dinner while we were visiting Breck. The food was fantastic, and the service was great. Food came out fast, despite it being busy. There was a nice selection of deaft beers. Great place to unwind after a day on the slopes or walking around town. I'd definitely recommend a stop here if you're in the area!

Nachos with chicken
Bryanna J.

My partner and I stopped by here to grab a snack midday. It's downstairs with a family friendly arcade next door so it can be a little loud and busy when coming downstairs. It didn't bother us at all. We were seated and saw that there were so many tasty sounding items on the menu. We decided to order the nachos with chicken. The nachos were pretty yummy and came out fast. The chicken was a bit on the dry side for us but definitely still good overall. Our server was nice, friendly, and very attentive. We would definitely come back.

Greek pizza
Jessie Elizabeth J.

Cozy and lively tavern atmosphere with delicious food - the unique Thai pizza and spicy peanut wings are my favorite! Always the friendliest service too. Lots of arcade games! We eat here everytime we are in Breck.

Custom pizza with Kalmata olives and green chile on a wheat garlic crust.
Mark S.

This place was great. It is a total sports bar. We were able to watch and sport we wanted with ease. The place was clean and comfortable without being too noisy. The staff was very friendly and we were sat immediately. They have a wide selection of beer on tap and offered tasters to dial in what we were looking for. I really liked that they have beer from the local area. The food was fantastic. We ordered custom pizzas and had the Bavarian pretzels to start. Everything was flavorful and I ate way too much.

Double wide burger
Lauren A.

A Breckenridge Classic! I've been coming here for years, but recently tried the double wide burger and wow. So so good. Service is good, and the wait normally isn't as long as they quote. Food comes out fast and is delicious! Lively bar scene but family friendly as well.

Potato skins. So terrible- just look at it! Burnt to a crisp
Tiara Q.

The guy running the iPad to get you seated was awesome. He earned this place an extra star. Everything else was downhill from there. Our server didn't smile or have any personality. She might actually hate her job. We order 3 items and they all arrived nuclear hot where we couldn't touch the plates. The potato skins arrived sizzling like fajitas and continued to cook at the table for at least 5 minutes. Look at the potato skins. Are you proud of that?! They were inedible and I wouldn't spent 2 cents here again.

Entrance and menu
Joanna M.

This location is on Main Street with limited street parking, there is a hotel shuttle drop off stop in front or you could walk in. Once you do walk in, you head downstairs and will want to checkin for a table as larger groups may have a longer wait. You or your kids can spend the time playing arcade games while you wait for a table. We got lucky as a 2 person table and were able to be seated right away. We ordered the Caesar salad and it was really good. I enjoyed the dressing and the crunch of the lettuce. I was excited for my gluten free vegan cheese pizza and it did not disappoint. Every bite was yummy, the cheese melted well. It was nice there were a couple different sizes for the gluten free pizza as well in case you were part of a bigger group. The service was lovely and not rushed even though they were super busy. I thought the portion size was great for the price. I would definitely come back.

Angela K.

One of our favorite places we ate at during our weeklong trip. Every dish we got was absolutely solid. Huge positive note about this spot is they have many options for vegans/vegetarians, and it's really good. I got their pulled pork sandwich, and wow. Phenomenal. The bread was crispy and buttery, and the meat was tender. They loaded that sandwich up. It was served with a side of bbq sauce. The pizza was amazing. Nicely crusted and crispy and packed with flavor. Service was outstanding! The inside is dark, cool, and cozy.

Ask the Community - Downstairs At Eric’s

Do they take reservations?

Yes they do! Just call ahead.

Is the standalone bar, down main stairs to the right, open this season?

I am a local and visit Eric's about 3 times a week. Downstairs to the right is the game room and to the left is the restaurant and bar....so if there is or was a standalone bar somewhere on the right, it is not open.

Do they serve any wine?

Yes, but the list is limited compared to the beer options.

The food here is really old, which sounds like a bad thing but in this case it's actually really good because it's sourdough that's been aged for nine years (kinda like how cheese does that I think). They kinda incorporate it into every single part of the meal, which is really cool. I mean if you have a theme stick to it, you go girl! It also kinda feels like a mining company store in here, which is really silly. I don't remember our servers name, half of my party think it's Eric and the other half think it's Evan, but either way he was mega awesome sauce (I just asked and his name is Torin, we were really far off sorry). The deserts were heavenly, the Tiramisu was beautiful and you can tell they made it in house. DONT EVEN GET ME STARTED ON THE COOKIES!! Woah dude, they were crazy. I now can whole heartedly tell you I know what Kermit meant when he said "Wherever you find love, it feels like Christmas". Top 10 pizzas, beats NYC and puts Brooklyn in a head to head match. Even the guy on the bus from Chicago said it gave his local place back home a run for its money!

After a full day roaming around Breckenridge, we ended up at Robbie's Tavern up at Peak 8, and…read morehonestly... this was exactly the kind of mountain lodge experience you hope for when you're in Colorado. First things first -- the views. Huge windows looking out toward the slopes and mountains make it feel like you're sitting inside a snow globe with a drink in hand. Cozy lodge vibes, warm lighting, and that perfect après-ski energy even if you didn't touch a pair of skis all day. I went straight for the beef stew, and it was exactly what the moment called for. Rich, hearty, slow-cooked flavor with tender beef, vegetables, and that deep savory broth that basically warms you from the inside out. If you're cold from the mountain air, this bowl fixes everything. The beverages were flowing, and the bar is a great place to park for a bit and soak up the scenery. Big shoutout to Alec the bartender -- awesome hospitality, friendly, attentive, and the kind of bartender who makes you feel like you've been coming there for years even if it's your first visit. If you're hanging around Peak 8 in Breckenridge, Robbie's Tavern is a great stop for comfort food, drinks, and some seriously great mountain views.

Our drinks came out rather quickly and we enjoyed a couple of hours of people watching. Great location. They have 2 tables with a fire pit on it but unfortunately all the seats were taken.

I've had plenty of bad service in my life. I've also had plenty of bad food in my life. But the…read morechaotic experience of dining at Sauce on the Maggie was truly a first. It began with check-in... the host appeared distressed and mumbled something about making sure her large party gets seated (not us) without properly acknowledging us. She left to go check on something and we kept waiting. When she came back, she was exasperated, but friendly and had us sat promptly. I wondered to my family if perhaps they were understaffed that night. Maybe? But there did seem to be plenty of staff running around and it seemed to be at 65% capacity. But when I say they were running, I mean RUNNING. It was almost comical and out of an SNL skit -- I kept asking my family facetiously what they were running FROM? But ironically, the service was glacial as many reviewers have pointed out. Appetizers and drinks went smoothly enough. The food was disappointing from the start... fried ravioli was chewy, bruschetta was soggy, and the caprese salad was nothing special. The standout of the entire night was the fried brussel sprouts, surprisingly tasty. Credit where credit is due!!! The main course is where things went further south. Penne a la vodka lacked the distinctive tangy flavor, rigatoni had a really one noted and heavy peppery kick, and the bolognese was unremarkable. The bus boy then only partially cleared our tables, took the plates but left the sauce covered silverware (never to be cleared, which was gross). We waited probably 15 minutes for server to return to get the check.. during which the food runner serving the table next to us dropped a family sized bowl of pasta onto the floor and my cream colored sneakers. It happens, no shade to the bus boy, but can't help but draw parallels to how fast the servers seemed to be rushing to and from the tables as if they were being chased...My family was in good spirits and laughing about all of this, by the way. Finally, our server returns, and insisted that we have an "on the house" dessert for the birthday girl (my sister was celebrating her 30th and engagement). We agreed, but decided we needed a second to look. She was gone for probably another 10 minutes, we ordered, and asked for the check. Another 10 or so minutes go by. The desserts arrive without any silverware. The food runner brings some, they're dirty. So the waitress ultimately bring some over that were clean enough. My fudge cake was yummy (again, being fair here), but all the others were not. We were most disappointed that the tiramisu, advertised as being made daily in house, lacked coffee flavor and coloring, and much too heavy on the cream. After finishing dessert we waited and waited. I decided to flag down the host as she weaved through the other servers like a 6 lane highway in Atlanta . "Excuse me, miss," I said, to which she responded by holding up a finger at me and saying something about her other table. "Oh," I exclaimed in surprise. She later looped back eventually and apologized, taking the check from us. Our initial server returns for the check a few minutes later, and I informed her that I'd given the check to the host/manager (?). \ Once she returned with the check, she said she "heard" about what happened and was so sorry. I jokingly said, "which part?" Which in hindsight I feel bad about. Sorry to that waitress. The restaurant ultimately comped 3 of the desserts, which was nice. Overall, the ambiance was frenetic, the food bad/mediocre, and the service slow. That said, my family got a great laugh out of the whole thing, and thus I give 2 stars instead of 1.
