The place is nice with beautiful view and good service. Burger was really good, Turkey sandwich (I didn't expect it to be fried in oil) and fries were very greasy. I guess it is not for people with sensitive stomach. read more

Rarely do I ever do 1 star reviews on here unless it's totally warranted. I ate here for lunch yesterday and this morning from 4 am on I'm throwing up and have tons of diarrhea. I'm also 8 months pregnant, so getting food poisoning at this late stage is pretty dangerous. Avoid their chicken tacos and their pathetic excuse for a "Greek salad". Beyond being overpriced and mediocre at best, I'm now dealing with this. Hours and hours later. I might have to go to the hospital before our flight to get extra fluids. This is unacceptable. I'll be definitely contacting their local health inspectors office and seeing what's really going on back there. It doesn't seem like the most clean, and if their lettuce or their tomatoes or feta have listeria, that's something that needs to be investigated. Beware! read more

Food was decent, definitely overpriced but kind of expected for the area. The service wasn't great to be honest. Between asking for the check and actually being able to leave.. I think we sat there in the cold for a solid 45 minutes. Hoping to try another spot next time we're in town. On the bright side, great tator tots read more

Kickapoo Tavern - Chicken and Brie sandwich with the montezuma salad - American Near Me - Keystone, Colorado

After skiing all day and working up a big appetite, this place hit the freaking spot. Conveniently located right in town and so good! The spiced apple pie drink was too good. Add a shot of Jamison to it-- you'll be glad you did. The food was all delicious. The French dip is big enough to split. Tater tots were super crunchy. The fries came out cold with one burger and our waiter brought us a fresh plate of them graciously. This place is busy--lots of people in and out. Service is fast and friendly so you can get back on the mountain quick. read more

Honestly, this was pretty much one of the few places opened after 4 pm in the River Run. Food: I got the green chili and half size nacho. Flavor was average but the amount of the food for the price was quite large. I got hot cocktails due to the cold weather. It was quite good too. Ambience: It was good. Can't say any bad thing about it. Everyone is having a good time skiing/boarding. Pretty friendly places. Service: generally most of staff members were friendly and providing good service. It seems to be getting busy especially before the night skiing/boarding. They clean up the table and make it available ASAP for customer. For the table service, my table was served by this girl, Savana. She brought food and drink as i requested. but her service wasn't really fair. There were two tables around me, both got a group of guys. I can tell the difference in her services. She made conversation with (guy) customers, and kept checking on other tables if they need anything else but she just drop the check without asking if I need more drinks (I was gonna get more cocktails). So I just had to give her a card to close the tab. I'm sure other people had a great experience and I'm sure I would also have a good service if I was a guy. read more

So I'm giving a five star review on this place not because of the food or because of the location but because of the service. We had a waitress by the name of Bethany. She was fantastic, engaging full of energy. We came in probably her last table for the night just drove up from Denver and we're starving and she didn't once say anything horrible or eye roll. Why are they sitting? She was excited to have us there. Food came out quickly great service. I wasn't really hungry so I had a house side salad. My partner got the buffalo chicken macaroni and cheese dish for $25. It's just was not healthy and it was filled with cheese. Was it delicious yes, would he get it again of course he would. It has buffalo chicken with cheese and bacon who else would say no to that. bartender made a delicious Tequila. Sour drop type drink. I don't remember the name of it, but it was very good. Do you know when you meet somebody in your life and u think oh my G have we met before. the story behind Bethany is just shocking of how much we had in common with her and her family. I won't go into details but I could've spent hours talking to her. when you go in ask for Bethany she's fantastic. read more

As I was about to finish my beer I noticed there's big chunks and shards of broken glass in the bottom of my glass. I just hope I didn't ingest any. No free beer can make up for this. Absolutely very dangerous. The service was good other than that. And I don't even know who to blame for this. Just praying for the best read more

Came here to eat after hitting the slopes around 1pm and it wasn't crowded at all; however thank god bc it got super crowded as soon as we got seated which was about 15minuted later so we came at the perfect time! They gave us the option of sitting inside or outside- we chose inside to keep warm. The waitress was very attentive to us. We ended up ordering the River run burger (which was one of their fan favorites) and a side of parmesan fries and the soup of the day (which was the chicken tortilla). The food came out at a moderate time, was kind of a wait but it was ok. The chicken tortilla was not my favorite at all.. it was kind of watery and not a lot of flavor to it. The river run burger on the other hand was pretty good in my opinion! it was very tasteful and cooked well. The guacamole, though, didn't seem as fresh but it was fine. I would definitely order it again. i ended up upgrading my regular fries that came with the burger to the parmesan fries. the fries were delightful! they were crispy and tasteful. i would def order it again! I would definitely come back again read more

Best service we have received in Keystone from our waitress Alexis. Our table of 7 guys got a variety of dishes and they were all great

Mushroom burger with truffle butter is delish!!! Best burger I've had in a long time. Ice cold pints of draft beer and tater tots and great view sitting on the outside patio. So nice to also hear the river alongside. Friendly service. Will absolutely be back here next time we're in town! read more

Love Kickapoo! Went up earlier this week and had the best experience all around. Our server Zach was amazing, super attentive and genuinely a good guy. Zach recommended several items from the menu, so glad he did, we tried a couple of the burgers the River Run and Schoolmarm. Cooked perfectly and tots hit the spot. Definitely will be going back next time I'm up in Summit, looking forward to another great experience and the atmosphere was super chill and welcoming. read more

Be wary of this place. My server was terrible. I wish I could comment on the food, but I can't because he never put my order in. I had two glasses of wine while waiting but after 45 minutes and tables that came in after me getting their food I realized that my Greek salad was never coming. I flagged the guy down and said I was fine with only the wine. He clearly didn't remember that I'd ordered anything else. I stupidly gave him my credit card instead of waiting for the bill because I was hungry! When he bought it back I realized that he'd charged me $107! He credited me, but didn't offer any discount. I paid cash this time! Perhaps their food is good. I'll never know. CC read more

The worst restaurant experience! While we were having drinks and appetizers the manager came by and said we HAD TO LEAVE before the Super Bowl started. He said there was a 90-minute dining "rule." We were there 40 minutes and still wanted to order entrees. No luck, he was determined to make us leave before the game started. Why? There were six empty tables around us and no one was waiting to be seated. We paid our bill ($89 for drinks & apps) NEVER TO RETURN. read more

Upon arrival to Keystone the BF and I found ourselves hungry. So we made our way to Kickapoo Tavern to meet our friends for some cold brews and apps! LOCATION: Right by the base of the mountain in River Run Village. It's perfectly located to stop in for a mid-day break from the slopes, enjoy a refreshment or two, and head back up to finish your day. ATMOSPHERE: When it's busy - it's loud! That being said there's tvs scattered about to check-up on the game. The whole place has a mountain lodge type feel with rustic log and river rock throughout. LIBATIONS: Our group of four sipped on a variety of drinks. I chose Left Hand's Nitro Milk Stout. The perfect way to warm up in the winter. My friend had Granny's Hot Cocoa (it was of the spiked variety - of course). The boys had a couple other local brews. SUSTENANCE: There's a wide variety of meal options to be had at Kickapoo Tavern. My friends and I noshed on the full order of nachos with pulled pork, sour cream, and guacamole added. Super tasty! Plenty of toppings for the tortilla chips. We also shared the pretzel bites and queso. It was def enough for the four of us. SERVICE: The place was PACKED when we arrived. After checking in with the host we discovered there was a thirty minute wait. We left them our cell number and made our way back outside to wait. When we were seated our server was as attentive as she could be given how busy it was. I find myself in Keystone at least once a ski season; so I'm sure I'll make my way back to Kickapoo Tavern! read more

Super cold and drafty inside, don't sit near the windows. Decent food, but all the restaurants in the village are managed by the same restaurant group which means some menu items are shared between this place and Montezuma Roadhouse. Starts to feel like a slightly upscale college cafeteria once you realize this. read more

Great service and food. The server was very attentive to our party even though they were busy. Food was great!

Apres Night Skiing .... snow is coming down, River Run is in its fullest glory ... sadly everywhere it's packed with long lists and somehow we ended up here. The bar that serves food is just that. A bar that serves food and mediocre food at that. The Gyros our servers "favorite" were simply not good. Overdone gyro meat from Restaurant Depot on a stale pita with some store bought sauce .... I would be embarrassed to serve such a disgrace to the kitchen. The burger was ok per my offspring. Frankly this place leaves lots to be desired. From slow service to crappy food ..... I get it supply of tourists is somewhat endless but it's not a reason to serve mediocre food. I would kick this off your dining list in keystone. read more

Kickapoo Tavern - Santa Fe salad with blackened shrimp. Has a bit of a kick but it delicious! - American Near Me - Keystone, Colorado

Fun place for dinner after a day of skiing at the base of Keystone Mountain. Mountain lodge feel, casual dress. We had to wait about 20 minutes for a table which was fine (and the hostess quoted us 30 minutes). Great service. Our server Bethany was attentive and nice. Food was good. Pretzel bites are a must. We also had the River Run Burger and the Harvest Cobb Salad. The burger wasn't cooked medium rare as ordered but it was ok. 'Underwhelming' according to the hubs. The Cobb Salad has cranberries and apples and a yummy honey mustard dressing. The power bowls looked good at the table next to us so we'll be back to try those! read more

This restaurant was very underwhelming honestly. The best thing we got were the buffalo chicken ranch nachos but even the chicken was kind of weird in it. My friend and I split the burger and we both agreed it was very mid. The bun was dry and just kind of crusty overall. My drink was good, but everything was so expensive and that it really factored negatively into my overall experience. The location and interior ambiance is nice; it's a beautiful log cabin-esque structure that gives you the log cabin mountain vibes. I expected more out of this place but it wasn't the worst thing ever. read more

Good pub food and beer selection. We sat outside on the deck on a cold but sunny day so ambience was fresh air.Service was friendly.

Great service from start to finish. Daniel, his brother zach, and mark were all great. Fast food, faster drinks! Happy Thanksgiving!

The location of Kickapoo Tavern is nice, because you can walk right to it from the slopes. If there's an issue, it's just that it's the first restaurant you see, so plan on getting there for an earlier lunch unless you want to wait in a line. The service was solid, no complaints there. Our waitress made sure we had the drinks we wanted and enjoyed our food. The food was good, but wasn't anything that blew me away. I would eat here again certainly, but I think a major reason for that is due to the close proximity to the slopes where you can get something to eat and get back on the mountains. read more

Prices were good and portions large. I loved the food and atmosphere! Great service- quick food!

Fun fact for the day. Kickapoo is both a tribe and a place. It generally means "Stands here and there." Learning new things can work up an appetite so we should probably talk about the food. I got the Chicken & Brie sandwich, which has chicken breast, melted brie, apples, fig jam, mixed greens, and a brioche bun. Not a game changer but it did taste good and wasn't too heavy to get right back out there on the mountain. The one challenge we had here was getting a table. There's probably no great timing because people will be coming down for lunch throughout the day. It was hard to stand in a place that wasn't in the way. We did our best and only got a couple comments from the servers. All in all, not a bad place and not my favorite at the Keystone resort. read more

After a long day of snowboarding about any food is going to taste delicious because you're so hungry... but that wasn't the case here. I can't have dairy so I asked for dairy free options and the waitress was no help. I ended up getting the salmon which was basically liquid fish.. it would not stay on my fork. I sent it back (something I never do but it was $25). The waitress seemed very irritated and didn't apologize. I then ordered the thai peanut bowl which was very yummy and was a large portion. read more

We have been here numerous times for apps or lunch. Pro tip: go here before the lunch rush (11:30a and after on a weekend) to get a table otherwise it gets packed. Also imo, outdoor seating is prime especially when the sun is out. Last pro tip: order green chili with a side and chips to use as a shared dip for the table. read more

A great place for apres ski. We came here for a break during skiing and also afterwards for dinner and drinks. A warm, lively and BUSY sports restaurant right at the front of the Village. Very packed at all times but bar seating is first come first serve so look for that! We ended up sitting down at a table for dinner and the wait wasn't that bad. They said 45 minutes but it ended up being more like 25 minutes. Food was good, filling and delicious, I got the southwestern power bowl which I recommend. Prices are higher which is to be expected from a place at the ski lodge, my bowl cost me $20 but at least it tasted good! Would definitely come back. read more

We love this place. Some people say it's a little pricey - ummmmm it's right at the base of river run gondola. Ok. Kids menu is great. Adult menu is great. Drinks are spot on. We try to sit outside in the sun and it's just heaven. Our server today, Charles, was awesome. Super personable, professional, timely. Just awesome. We come here all the time. Love it. read more

Service was good for take out. Nice place. I have a dairy allergy, I was reassured there would be zero dairy including butter. My mouth broke out after immediately! I'm lucky my allergy isn't life threatening. Burger was over priced for $36. I wouldn't recommend. read more

This is the best spot to eat in River Run! They have a lot of seating that is spread out and is covid-friendly, and they also gave us our pick of indoor or outdoor seating. They've got a good selection of locally brewed beers and a big appetizer menu that is perfect for après-ski. read more

Says they close at 9. Doors locked at 8 with plenty of seating available. Not how I would run a business

Wow. Kickapoo. I see where you get the name from. First night at keystone. Hungry. Desperate. Sought out yelp for guidance and found this "kickapoo" place. We initially wanted to do take out, but that wasnt available until after 8pm. Thought we would discover another option. But that night we were too tired to take public transportation and for some reason didnt notice Montezuma restaurant. Anyway, we got there around 8pm. To pick up take out Picked up our steaming bag of .... foood. And brought it back to the condo. ~5 mins max. The french dip was OK /edible. And would probably been better if we ate there. The fries had gone full soggy mode and tasted like leather. We also got shephards pie. And that looked like a semi digested after a night out clubbing, bad decision making taco bell accident while passed out kinda deal. Tastewise, was too salty and the protein/meat was scant. It was essentially mashed potatoes with one or two green peas. Although this was take out. My experience was negative. read more

Good for group dinners and great location after a long day of skiing! I enjoyed my greek gyro. Heard great things about the chicken brie and enjoyed a bite of the el gordo burrito! With the resort prizes, I was able to enjoy a very filling dinner for about $15-20. Came here another time for happy hour and was able to enjoy a pitcher of blue moon for only $21 and get some yummy apps! They seem to not split meals here so make sure you're aware of that before getting just one bill. read more

Bartender and rest of staff were great. Highly recommend stopping in for a beer. Visited in July 2023.
