We returned to Basalt for the second year in a row, booked the same condo by the Roaring Fork River. It's a 10 minute at most stroll to Midland Ave & Heather's restaurant. We always end up going there several times for lunch or dinner. The service is friendly & efficient. The food is superb. We've tried it all! The ambiance lends itself to beyond "pleasant experience", a lasting positive memorable meal. Thank you, Cindy & Keith. See you next June! read more

Heather’s Savory Pot Pies - Heather's is our favorite restaurant in the RFV. So glad that Snowmass Village will share the benefit & success! - Tapas Bars Near Me - Basalt, Colorado

Heather's is an amazing find! We were staying in Snowmass, but most of the places around us are closed during off-season and we are a little tired of the overly pretentious vibe of Aspen! So, we decided to check out Basalt. We were lucky to find Heather's. The place has a great cozy vibe. Our servers were very friendly and welcoming. The food was simply fantastic! We enjoyed everything we had. Starting with their delicious Wild Mushroom Soup, then a very fresh and tasty Garden Salad, next we split a Chicken Pot Pie and the Stuffed Pork Chop entrees! That stuffed pork chop had a wonderful mushroom risotto accompanying it and was stuffed with a delicious gruyere cheese and a nicely done asparagus. So good! I strongly recommend this wonderful establishment! read more

What a positive find, out and about just driving around admiring Colorado's beauty. Four of us, three chicken pot pies and one Cubano. WoW. Effing delicious. Sitting outside on a sunny day in the Fall. Felt very comfortable and well taken care of. Took desserts home. Bonus later that evening. The pie's were amazing too read more

This is one of my favorite places to eat in basalt. The food is consistently amazing, the service is excellent and friendly, and the beautiful old house that encapsulates the restaurant is charming and well maintained. The front porch is my favorite place to eat when I go because it has the best view of the musicians who play there every Thursday night through Sunday night. Oh! I almost forgot to mention the homemade desserts! I am a dedicated fan of the chocolate cake; so much so, I have been known to order it three times in a week! It is life affirming! read more

The food was fine. The service left much to be desired. We arrived at 6:30 and were finished with our meal and check paid before 7 o'clock. I had hoped for a nice casual dinner out, no such luck. We ordered three tapas dishes and literally 5 minutes later they all arrived at the same time. I know they had a lot of reservations coming in after us and so my sense is that the kitchen had nothing to do and kicked out our food as fast as they could. One of the items was a baked Brie that would've been nice to linger over as an appetizer before the other plates arrived. No such luck, and as such, we had to eat quickly to not let it all get cold. Not worth the money we spent. Won't make that mistake again. read more

Our most favorite dining experience! The food, the service, the live music was all so well done.

Excellent lunch. Wasn't sure how this was going to go at first because it took a minute to have someone take our order, but then it all fell into place and the meal was well worth it. I had the turkey, cranberry, and brie panini with cole slaw. Both were delicious. My guy had the jerk chicken quesadilla and he said it was delicious - nice and crisp with mango salsa. The coleslaw was probably the best I've had - I offered him a taste of mine and he went back for more!! If we are in town again would return!! read more

Heather’s Savory Pot Pies - Turkey & Brie Panini - Tapas Bars Near Me - Basalt, Colorado

Finally found a decent dinner at almost reasonable prices. The chicken pot pies were delicious. We also ordered their mushroom soup, which is puréed and very good.They included a salad and were quite filling even though the ramekin they were served in looked small. Next came the homemade pies which finished off a great dinner. Service was great. It takes 20 minutes to cook the pot pies. Just a plain Jane restaurant inside. They just opened another restaurant in Snowmass Village. read more

Heather’s Savory Pot Pies - All I can say is YUM!! Amazing - Tapas Bars Near Me - Basalt, Colorado

This is the best place I've eaten in a long time. We ordered: chicken empanada, stuffed mushrooms, chicken pot pie, house salad, and pistachio cake. Everything was amazing! The crusts were so good and the dressing on the salad was so fresh and zingy! And the cake.... I wish I would've bought an entire one to take home. They have a case of fresh desserts with too many options to count and everything looked amazing! The service was quick and straightforward. It was really a nice ambiance - perfect and intimate for a nice meal out while also feeling down to earth like a small mom/pop cafe. Upon leaving I felt so nourished - this place has true comfort food where you feel warm and cozy in your soul after! read more

Amazing food. Great staff and service, live music on some nights. Nice cozy atmosphere

One of my faves!!! Great food, great service, great music, great fun!!! And great blueberry pies!!! Eating out on the patio is so festive...just love it!!! read more

Excellent menu. Exceptional service. They managed to accommodate one more guest than the reservation was for on a very busy night.

Excellent venue, location and food. Staff were very friendly. Chicken pot pie was delicious. We sat on the dog friendly patio.

Heather's Savory Pot Pies is a great restaurant with yummy food. I had their traditional chicken pot pie and was pleasantly surprised at how hearty the pie was. It was seasoned well and had all the vegetables and savory chicken you'd expect. It also came with a salad, which was nice too. I sat at the bar and enjoyed the service which made my experience enjoyable. It looked like they were setting up a corner area for some live music but left before they started playing. I'd say if you are into pot pies or even wanting to try them then this Is a great place to enjoy some savory food at a reasonable price. read more

Went to a lunch with 8. I ordered the Veggie Pot Pie and was very disappointed. I took 3-4 bites to explore the flavors and textures. It just was not worth eating. It was dry. Kind of like a scrambled egg inside. The "cheddar biscuit topping was a dry burnt blob. The other pies at the table looked equally unappealing. The server never came to check on us. At the end of the meal she asked if I would like it wrapped to go. I said "no thank you it wasn't very good". She had no response and bill was not adjusted. Side salad was good. The other salads at the table also looked good. Get your namesake right. I'm writing this review from a near by pizza shop. read more

Heather's Savory Pies and Tapas was one of the best experiences that I had here in Colorado. Everything from the food, the hospitality, the ambiance, and the drinks were top notch. Food: 5/5 We were not too hungry so we ordered one appetizer and one savory pie to share. For the appetizer, we got the stuff mushrooms. They super flavorful and plump. I just wished they had more than four of them. For the entree, we ordered the Shepards pie. It was my first time having it, but boy was it delicious. The mash potatoes were creamy and the lamb was mouthwatering. It paired so well with the cheesy bread that they gave us. Service: 5/5 If I could give this more than I five I would. All of the servers were so sweet and helpful. We had a seat at the bar and was quickly greeted by Nora. She is the best and truly made our experience. She shared so many of her stories and experiences and chatting to her made out night. Ambiance: 5/5 There was live music in this restaurant but it was not overpowering. It was mellow and smooth and we even recognized some of the songs they played. It brought out a wonderful lively crowd to this sleepy little town. I definitely recommend making a reservation because as the night went on, more and more people showed up and there eventually was a small wait. read more

Best pot pies in Colorado! Warm and home-like environment in a converted old house! The desserts are amazing and have the made-from-scratch homemade taste! read more

We arrived looking for a good meal after being at the river. The host called us 1 minute before our reservation to get details on our reservation, and was very kind and accommodating. Hopes were high. We got sat and were delivered water promptly after sitting. Our server approached our table around 5 minutes after seating, beverages were delivered timely, and then our server disappeared. Our server became almost too attentive as the rest of our party arrived, asking for drinks before we could open the menu. Our appetizers/"tapas" took quite some time to arrive. Before we could enjoy the course we were just delivered, we were instructed to order our entrees. We ordered a lot, in accordance to our servers timing. Entrees came, and a majority of our table's entrees were cold, far below anything we could ingest. The middle of our pies were cold, insinuating the dishes were prepared from frozen. The next time our table was interacted with was from a support staff member, far after we decided we were unhappy with our food. We understood the uncomfortability of this issue, but it almost seemed like we became abandoned. Our exact dishes were re-prepaired timely, but obviously the same dishes we were served, only this time, they were delivered visibly burnt and flakey. We felt bad for having to send our dishes back, but it was apparent the server became embarrassed for the food she had to serve. There was no accommodations delivered to us, not that that was ever an expectation, but it felt embarrassing for everyone involved. This place came highly recommending to us, and we were very optimistic, but left very disappointed. read more

We visited Heathers in Basalt and while the staff was genuinely welcoming and very sweet, the food just wasn't great. Parking is also tough since there's none nearby. We ordered the chicken pot pie, which was very tiny for the price, and it unfortunately had canned vegetables. We also ordered the pot roast, a salad, soup and stuffed mushrooms that were watery. Even the pies we tried were dry. For two people the bill was over $200, which made the quality even more disappointing. Overall, I'd give it a 4/10. Lovely people, but I wouldn't go back for the food. read more

I love this place. The service, ambience and decor make this a very comfortable setting to receive masterfully crafted down home cooking. The menu is diverse and filled with comfort food. The empanadas are a must! The star of the menu are the homemade pot pies. There are several iterations, and everyone is spot on. The pot roast with horseradish mashed potatoes is better than anything mom made! Under no circumstances should you forget to have dessert. The pistachio cake is unique and delicious. read more

Great local restaurant. We enjoy their menu and ambience go frequently to listen to live music, which is hard to find in the area.

I was slightly confused by the concept of this place based on the name but the patio was so cute that I decided to go. I am so glad I did. Had incredible watermelon gazpacho and a spinach salad, listening to live music. read more

The food was yummy and the service was good. We also enjoyed the live music on the patio. This is a great spot for a cozy and casual night out. read more

Heather’s Savory Pot Pies - Perfect Pot Roast Chicken Marsala - Tapas Bars Near Me - Basalt, Colorado

We stopped here for dinner before hiking West Maroon Pass the next day. It was conveniently located downtown and walking distance from where we stayed at Basalt Inn. Our party of four was sat outside, right near the live music which was lovely (and not too loud)! We started with a round of drinks - I got the blackberry smash which was way too boozy for me (one of the reasons I'm not giving a five star). Food - our table started with the Brie appetizer which was very tasty! Each couple got the pot roast and chicken pot pie to share. Our salad came early and was really tasty, I loved the light basil vinaigrette. The pot roast then came out before the pies (pies take 20 minutes to make once ordering) and it was delicious! We agreed one of the most tender roast we've ever had. I loved the underlying taste of rosemary. The carrots and onions were fall apart delicious. The service was OK - our server was obviously very busy but we didn't feel like a priority (lots of affluent older people at the restaurant were being catered to more). Overall, would come back! read more

Fantastic food and service. Highly recommended. Quaint dining room with a decent size bar.

We love this place and never come to Basalt without eating here. Their mushroom soup is out of this world. And the pies...unparalleled. Both the savory and dessert. Great salads, too. Super service, friendly and great to eat outside and hear live music! Highly recommend! read more

Yum, yum, yum!! If you want fresh cooked food go to Heather's!! They had really cute indoor and outdoor seating. Our waitress was attentive even though I think she was the only one. I had the Pulled Pork Tamale pie. It was delicious. It came with a house salad, I loved the dressing! My dad had the Chicken Pot Pie, and that is a must try. The flavors of everything blended perfectly. I just wanted more of the yummy crust! My mom had the tuna wrap and thought it was great. My boys were happy with their noodles with butter and cheese. I'd love to go back. read more

We've been coming to Aspen for years and never thought about driving to Basalt for dinner but we are happy we did! For starters we ordered baked Brie, stuffed mushrooms, and tuna tartar, which were fabulous! The house basil vinaigrette was excellent, but the star of the show was the chicken pot pie! We were so full we had to take dessert (coconut cake and strawberry and rhubarb pie) back to Aspen! Heathers is worth the drive but make sure to make reservations through the website! read more

We ate at Heather's on July 3rd. Started off with the stuffed mushroom appetizer & it was mediocre. Our daughter had the chicken pot pie & loved it. The chicken marsala was disappointing. The chicken was a wing & part of the thigh-overcooked & small portion. We have been to Heather's a few times for lunch & that was much better. Not sure if I would return, read more

There was a wait. Put name down and waited 40 min during dinner time - music: live music with a talented musician - food: pies were warm and satisfying read more

The atmosphere, the dessert selection, the service & the chicken pot pie was ALL outstanding!! This has a homemade, Sunday dinner at grandma's house vibe which is unmatched for comfort food here in the RFV. read more

It's like eating at home. Only, it's a nice place and you don't do the dishes. And you get to pick dinner. And the bar has a bigger selection. And you don't have to cook. Literally, this place was a house at one point, which kicks up the ambiance a ton! We sat at the bar, where the bartender was equal parts great server and great conversationalist. We went for an appetizer dinner, picking a few appetizers in leu of a main course. Not a bad choice, but their savory pies did look.. (wait for it), savory! If we were local, we'd be heading back for sure! Seriously a great place in a fun town, not pretentious like other places and very worth the stop! read more

Delicious pies, great service, nice cocktails. Do I need to say more?

Wonderful pot pies. So retro. So delicious. Pleasant spot in historic old town Basalt. Treat yourself to an enjoyable and delicious meal out. read more

Food was absolutely awesome. We had appetizers and 2 different pot pies - better than Mom's!

I liked the cozy vibe at this bistro and the waitress was working as fast as she could with a back server for the entire dining room. She might have been the bartender at some point. Food was ok. Stuffed mushroom was nothing special and duck breast was a little over cooked. The risotto was tasty and well seasoned. Key lime pie was a bit of a let down. It tasted home made, which was a plus, but it needed a little more flavor. read more
