    Supreme calzone
    Ally C.

    Tasty food and great service! We stopped in on the way to RMNP. There are a few tables inside and a robust back patio. Very baby friendly.

    Garlic Knots

    Really good. We had a big order and it didn't take too long. The workers were really nice. It wasn't too loud where we were eating. The pizza was really big, good for a big party. The garlic knots were really good.

    Super chill place to grab a beer or some food before or after visiting RMNP. Plenty of seating both inside and out. The staff was so friendly and the food and beer was great. Not many places have calzones so that was exciting and delicious.

    Mediterranean and cheese
    Matt S.

    Although I have been here a few times in the past for dinners and other events, have never really been able to sample their pizza until we were invited to a child's bday party over the weekend. They brought out a number of pies including a supreme, mediterranean, and a cheese and everything was delicious. All the pizzas were cooked well with all them having extra crispy thin crusts and delicious toppings. Their seltzer selection is also excellent with some local and smaller breweries being represented. Overall it's a great spot, but can get a little packed especially in the winter.

    We finished up late at RMNP and most restaurants in Estes Park closed at 8. We decided to drive a bit and find a hotel. We stumbled on this place. What a delight! The employees were wonderful. They made great suggestions and we enjoyed sitting outside where the kids had room to get their wiggles out. We ordered a slice of the special, a cheese pizza for the kids and a supreme calzone (as big as 2 heads). They were all great but that calzone was LEGIT! We hope to visit again in the future.

    Pizza slice and beer

    As we were heading to the airport after a delightful stay in Estes Park, we made an impromptu stop in the charming town of Lyons. Although we hadn't planned on dining, the inviting ambiance of MainStage Brewery drew us in, and we decided to stay a while. We indulged in drinks and a slice of pizza, both of which were absolutely phenomenal. However, what truly elevated our experience was the exceptional service we received. The staff was incredibly friendly, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere that made us feel right at home! Highly recommend!

    I was staying in Lyons and decided to grab a bite here after a long day of hiking in Rocky National Park. MainStage Brewing is located on the main road through Lyons. I am a big fan of trying the local beers of a new town that I am staying in. MainStage Brewing is all about community, music, good food and beer. They have a vibrant outdoor patio area. People looked like they were having a good time when I got here. I am an ale guy and got their Sawtooth Ale. They have a number of unique pizza creations here at MainStage Brewing. I was a little hesitant at first, but the bartender sold me on their Butternut Squash & Prosciutto pizza. I love those ingredients, but have never tried them all together on a pizza. I gotta say, that pizza was an excellent choice. The ingredients were high-quality and fresh. I enjoyed the friendly service that I got here too. It was fun to sit at the bar and watch the kitchen staff crank out these pizzas. It brought me back to the days when was a line cook.

    Elote pizza (no chorizo)
    Donna D.

    Yes yes yes! This beer and pizza are so good!! We had the elote pizza without the chorizo (vegetarian husband) and it was so flavorful! The Sun Puddle beer is my favorite! And our bartender was hilarious! He made us feel welcome and made me laugh several times. He's definitely in the right line of work! The only thing I'd say to improve is the dining room. Every table was dirty when we got there and we were swatting away the flies while we ate. Otherwise excellent experience!

    Service at the bar was great - super nice servers - beer and food were great! Lots of food and beer options!

    My husband and I tried a few good beers here while exploring Colorado! Main stage brewing is a super cute space with good beer and service. We had the lunch special, which was a slice of 4 cheese pizza! The slice was huge and delicious. They have other toppings for pizza and a full menu as well. Give it a try!

    Supreme
    Mike N.

    Lyons, Co. I was initially hesitant to order dinner from a beer bar, but it was convenient, and it wasn't festival food. They were not busy, I simply walked in and ordered a Supreme, 14 inch. We also got a salad that had sun-dried tomatoes in it. If you are hungry come here. The pizza was actually 16 inches and loaded. We ate half and took the remainder back to our lodgings and had it for lunch the next day. It was a delicious thin crust wheel that was delicious. The salad was fresh, tasty and HUGE, in spite of being a half order. Generous portions seem to be the rule here, awesome!

    MainStage Brewing is a good local brewery located in Lyons, Colorado. The drinks were delicious, as well as the food. Their QR Code ordering system is very fast and efficient. I had an overall good experience.

The shop itself is cute, well-stocked, and opens early, which made it an easy stop during our day. They also have pet-friendly outdoor seating, which is always a bonus for us. I had a question about one of the wines, and while the younger employee helping me wasn't sure of the answer, he immediately went to ask someone else who was able to help. I always appreciate when staff take the time to find the right information instead of guessing. Plenty of parking as well! Overall, it's a charming local shop with unique products and friendly service. We'll definitely stop back next time--hopefully for a slice of cherry pie!

Google does…read morenot give the correct directions - when we followed them, we ended up in a random parking lot a block over. I recommend setting the GPS to the brewery rather than the truck. When we visited on Sunday after hiking at RMNP for the morning, there wasn't much of a crowd here. We ordered and the the food only took about 8 minutes to arrive. Meeker Margherita ($21) - Perfectly cooked crust in this pizza. The cornicione in particular is expertly risen and cooked, giving plenty of charred bubbles and the perfect chewiness. The undercarriage, while floppy, isn't soggy at all. It hold up very well to the ingredients on top. The crust is first slathered sparingly with tomato sauce. The sauce is reduced quite a bit and tastes almost like a concentrated tomato paste. They don't use a lot so it doesn't soak into the crust at all. On top, there's a couple of pieces of basil giving a very noticeably fresh aroma. There's plenty of melted mozzarella cheese, which seem to be of the pearl variety, mild tasting and stretchy. They apparently also drizzle some EVOO, although there's no particular peppery or fruity notes, or heck any real olive oil flavor at all. With how well all the other ingredients worked together, the olive oil is very disappointing. Still, it's a very well constructed pizza. (5/5) Panorama Peak ($23) - Again, this pizza has the perfect crust. Instead of tomato sauce, it's slathered with ricotta cheese, making the pizza very rich and creamy. More melted mozzarella on top of that for even more fatty richness, then pieces of proscuitto, chewy and salty. The meat isn't sliced that well so it's messy to eat. They then essentially cover the pizza with an arugula, tomato, and shaved parmesan salad. The arugula is super peppery and bitter, the tomatoes are fresh and sweet, and the parmesan adds more saltiness. The main sources of salt are the parmesan and the proscuitto. Neither are added in large enough quantities to make the pie overly salty. Mixed in the with the arugula are a couple of stems of cilantro for some reason. Nothing on the menu actually uses cilantro so I'm a bit confused where it comes from. It's essentially a salad on pizza dough so everything falls off the crust very easily making it messy to eat. (4/5) I'm very impressed with the food served at Mangia Mangia. I didn't expect to find such great pizza in a small touristy mountain town. I'll be back next time I'm in the area!

    The beer was so nice I ordered the same one twice!…read more I put in 20 miles hiking Rocky Mountain National Park in a day a half. I slept about 4 hours the night before to make it early for sunrise. To say that a few tasty beers were what the doctor ordered would be the understatement of the century! None of this matters, of course, to the good folks at Rocky Cut Brewing Company. This is off the main drag of Estes in an unassuming strip plaza. Humble vibes inside, a simple U-shaped bar top with seating all around, a few smaller tables, a community table, and a large patio with mostly picnic table seating. If you're lucky, snag a stool right along the Big Thompson River! Though, I recommend they fix the wooden placeholders for beers, they're leaning on the wrong side of history, we don't want any full glasses of beer reaching an unnecessary demise! Interference IPA * American IPA * 6.7% * 16oz ($7) From their website: "Climbing the Interference Boulder in Rocky Mountain National Park requires strength and power. This Colorado IPA showcases the power of hops with an intense blend forging citrus aromas with a pine forward finish. Featured ingredients: Cascade, El Dorado, Mosaic, Chinook, & Simcoe hops * Recommended adventure: hiking Black Lake, climbing the Twin Owls, skiing upper Hidden Valley." A perfectly apt description. I would summarize this beer just as they did, focusing on hops, citrus, and pine. Absolutely delicious, a memorable IPA in recent memory. I liked it so much I ordered it again and it tasted just as delicious the second time down! They also had a food truck outside, so safe to assume they do this often. Would love to try more of their beers during my next visit. Rock Cut, I see you!
