    The Copper Mountain Resort Bar and Restaurant scene has been a challenge in the last two years (2020-21) with reduced tourism. This place has survived and seems to have a formula for success. That is, be personable, adaptable, and offer things you may not be able to get elsewhere. Personable: I sat at the bar and the two ladies took care of me, my questions, and just were talkative but not in a bothersome way. It was a slow weeknight so conversation among the patrons that were there was free and easy. Probably had me stay for another. Adaptable: They can handle big parties in a downstairs area, I believe do karaoke certain nights, have beer, wine, and mixed drinks. TVs for the game of interest for your crew. Or corner tables for something more quiet. Can meet your need. Things not available elsewhere: I started looking for a whiskey flight but the price and not finding a mix led me to just go a la carte for some whiskey (and I mixed in a beer). They can answer questions or do your own research online for local ones of which you are not familiar. I didn't try the food, the descriptions sounded good, not sure this is a place (given other nearby) to settle in for dinner, but there was food. The prices weren't what I would call friendly BUT again, given you're on the mountain and current prices are rising, was reasonable. I'll drop by here in the future for a whiskey or beer or the company.

    Positives first- this places has a seriously extensive whiskey list. So if that's your jam, this place would give you options. One of the two sandwiches we had was pretty good too, though the panini bread was too thin and not toasted enough Experience though. I'll stick with my other favorites. We had to pay for our drinks separately, and there was a significant wait time before the other waitress appeared to take our order. She said she would take it, but had to check if there was a cook downstairs. Um....ok? We ordered two sandwiches that came with kettle chips- when the sandwiches were ready, we were told they didn't have the chips, but they replaced them with tortilla chips. There was no discount either for the unwelcome substitution. Overall, I cannot recommend this place, especially given all of the other options around. Hopefully they can turn it around.

    Stand up if you're feelin right

    Best bar at Copper! Solid selection of whiskeys. Great whiskey sours and old fashioned's. Monica rocks! Great service, great atmosphere, even during COVID. Outdoor seating available. Can't wait to come back when it's fully open!

    Build your own old fashion?? Say no more. This place was lively enough to make it fun but not too loud. Great spot for a more relaxed environment (though the sign said free shots for LSU touchdowns so I imagine it can get rowdy ;)). We both did a build your own old fashion with some really creative and flavorful options. This made the list of our after ski bar stops.

    Amazing friendly service. Delicious and creative food and drink selections. This is hands down the best bar in summit county.

    Stopped in for some late night bites…read more Vibe: Comfy with lots of table, couch, and comfy chair options. Dim mood lighting. Board games and little free library inside. Good music. Overall a very good vibe and very inviting to hang out. Service: Friendly and fast Food: Menu is definitely a step above your classic bar food, I got a sandwich special and steak tips. The sandwich was a grilled cheese croissant that included smoked gouda and balsamic reduction and it was really good. The steak tips were okay, decent flavor, a little chewy, maybe because they were cut so small? Value: Total after tip was $30ish for a 'just right' portion so may a little over valued.

Also ordered the bread and butter appetizer, definitely recommend that. For the entree I did the salmon that came with a cucumber salad and potatoes. Hubby got that gnocchi and steak! We both liked our meals a lot! I totally wanted to try the peanut butter pie for dessert but they were all out so next time I'll have to get some for sure! Check this place out yall!

From the second we walked in, Kenny made us feel like we were at home. He was the kindest, most genuine, welcoming person we have ever met. It never felt like we were just customers stopping in for a tasting; it felt like we were guests in his home who they were genuinely excited to have there. We ended up wanting to stay forever! The wine was absolutely incredible, but what really sets this place apart is the experience. Kenny took the time to talk with us, get to know us, share stories, laugh with us, and make the entire visit feel so personal. You can tell how much heart he putz into what him and Anne do, and that warmth carries through the entire place. We visited other wineries while we were in town, and while we enjoyed them, nothing compared to this. There is something so authentic and special here that you simply cannot recreate at a bigger or more commercial winery. This was more than a wine tasting -- it became one of our favorite memories from the entire trip. If you are anywhere near the area, PLEASE make this a stop. Come for the wine, but I promise you'll leave remembering the people and the way they made you feel. Kenny and Anne, thank you for having a place that makes complete strangers feel like old friends. We will absolutely be back.

We were immediately greeted and shown to a table. Waitstaff was wonderful and joked with us as if we were old friends. That's always the best feeling. While they stayed professional we cracked up here and there! We started off with calamari. Both the red pepper marinara and spicy aioli hit the spot. Calamari was fresh out the fryer and brought to our table so quick! I ordered a lasagna Bolognese and that also came out fast and super fresh. I could only finish half of it and that was all that was needed to make the trek home. Keeping this place on the map. By the time we left it was nearly packed! The main drag has so many good options. This is certainly one of the spots to dine!

I wasn't too hungry so I got the bruschetta and we split the calamari too. Calamari app was good but would have liked some more variety vs just the rings, it seemed too Cisco-y for me. The dipping sauces that came with it were delish though--a nice roasted red pepper sauce and marina, you can't go wrong. My husbands lasagna portion was huge and came out piping hot, his was enough for a couple meals too so added bonus. Nice place and would definitely stop here again if I was craving Italian food in Frisco.

The winery is on one end of Main Street, and has patio seating (there was live music outside), as well as an interior tasting room. Right off the bat, we didn't think either of the people working were overly friendly, and didn't really make us feel overly welcome. We decided to do two flights of red wine - kind of insane to me that a flight was $40, thank god we had a 2 for 1 discount. The other people in my party also said they'd give the experience a 2 or 3 stars - price was unbelievably expensive (especially when you can go down the street at Carboy and do a flight for half the price). No one was impressed by the service either - for a flight, I'd expect a little more background and explanation of the wines, but the person came and dropped off beakers of all the wine with a quick explanation then left it up to us to pour our own wines. The wines themselves were nothing spectacular either, two from Colorado and two from California grapes (I think) - we liked the blend but that was about it. Unfortunately would not recommend this place to others or come back.

And to stumble upon this chic and inconspicuous cocktail bar in the busy downtown was something I wasn't expecting and became a treat after a nice stroll through the town after dinner in my hotel room. From the moment I stepped inside, I knew I was at the place where my heart was calling for. There were two gents at the bar and one of them warmly greeted me and said I could sit anywhere I would like. I hence picked one of the bar seats. Except one table that was occupied by a couple I was the only one. I appeared to have picked the right time; I had the whole bar to myself (eventually though, several different groups of people streamed in; only a few of them sat at the bar close to me. The bar was spacious enough to comfortably accommodate a little over 10 people.) Jeremy, who greeted me upon arrival, was a super host. As soon as I explained that wine is my usual got-to, he said he could mix and match reds and whites to create a "flight" based on what I had told him as to my likings. His extensive explanations as to what sorts of reds and whites the bar offers/serves was (of course) all in his memory. His eloquent speech with no filler words truly impressed me; he sure is a wine connoisseur. What he picked for me were... -2024 Pepiere "Les Gras Moutons" (Muscadet) -Kobal "Bajta", Hazole Belo (aka Orange Wine) -Sandlands "Red Table Wine (Lodi Red Blend) With his wealth of knowledge, after giving him only a hint of what I liked, what Jeremy selected for me to sample/sip was a superb choice. All of them were world-class excellence with elegance and beauty. I carefully and slowly sipped each one little by little to truly immerse myself in the art of wine. Yes, wine is a piece of art for sure. I think I said it correctly at the beginning of this review. This is a cocktail bar with variety of spirits which Jeremy could easily concoct just about anything from gin-based one to vodka-based one to tequila-based ones to whiskey-based one to name several. For those who don't drink, their zero-proof section also has something interesting to browse and choose. Not to mention, rotating pilsner or IPA on tap to name a few from the beer section as well. If you need a little bite to eat, their (changing) food menu has a good number of New American-style plates. The bar originally opened in a different building back in 2015 (I believe). They moved to the current location in 2019. They also offer various different classes so you can expand/extend your knowledge. So for your next foodie vacation in Vail, make sure to include Root & Flower in your list.
