Been going her for years. Great pub with good food. It's lively and welcoming. My only complaint is the noise level. Crosses the line at times to very unpleasant. It's by design (or bad design) with the tin ceiling and all hard surfaces, nothing absorbs the sound when it's crowded. Too bad they don't take some steps to control the noise level. It's not difficult. So if yelling for the person across the table to hear you isn't your cup of tea, don't go when they're busy. read more

Mushroom and arugula pizza, black bean burger, and Philly cheesesteak was great! Service and price good too. Thank you!

Solid Basalt food and Beverage establishment. It's got a cool locals vibe. I really loved the Avery IPA served in a frosted schooner. I would go there just for the beer. The nachos might be the best I have ever had. It was a large portion with amazing toppings. All the flavors worked well together. Loved the fire roasted pizza. You can skip the calamari. read more

I was ignored by waitstaff for twenty minutes. I went up to the bar to order chicken tenders and they said they were out, and I just wasted my time. I've hardly had anything all day so now I'm starving and waiting to eat Kraft Mac n cheese, lame. I have to be up early too. I've never had a bad experience like that. read more

Basalt is a sweet little town, but does not have a lot of restaurants, so my expectations were low in regard to the food. My husband and I ordered take-out dinner from the Brick Pony Pub and I was pleasantly surprised. I am very much a carnivore; I especially like red meat. However, my husband ordered the Black Bean Burger and I usually end up wishing I had ordered whatever it was that he ordered, so I also ordered the Black Bean Burger. It was quite tasty and filling. I have never had a Black Bean Burger before; this is something that I would like to learn how to make at home. It was very good. read more

Really good food, comfy atmosphere. Pub steak was on point. Highly recommend the iceberg wedge!

Cowboy burger was fabulous! I usually travel alone and appreciated that I got the same attention here as couples/groups. Sometimes singles get ignored at restaurants - not here! read more

Stopped in the brick pony for a quick bite to eat. I ordered the kale salad and the tomato soup, my mistake thinking I needed both! The salad was huge. The food was incredible. I am still thinking about it!! read more

A group of my colleagues and I ate at the Brick Pony in Basalt last evening. Shortly after paying the bill, I was alerted by Visa that my credit card had been used without presenting my card. I took a look on-line at my card to find a charge from the following website: Premiertaxfree.com This is not a site that I was aware of until noting this charge. The charge was for a total of $65.29 Name of our Waitress: Samantha I believe that my card was skimmed while at the Brick Pony. I find it disgusting and concerning that we have people who prey on others. Stealing identities and credit cards to gain money without working for it. I have been in Contact with Visa, they have canceled my card and will be working through the fraud process. I would discourage your patronage at the Brick Pony in Basalt Colorado until they are able to get their problem under control. Sincerely, Chris Connin read more

We were greeted as regulars by Kim, our waitress and manager. I enjoyed a delicious Colorado fresh, cold beer and salads. I had the chicken chopped salad and my husband had the salmon Caesar salad. The side of onion straws was a wonderful appetizer! Thank you Kim ! read more

The Brick Pony Pub - Delicious! - American Near Me - Basalt, Colorado

We stopped here after hiking up to Crater Lake/Maroon Bells. Basalt is a super cute town! I ordered the nachos, and let me tell you, they make a seasoning that they sprinkle on the chips that is too die for. The waitress told us they make the mix in house. I wish I could replicate it or lived closer! Husband went with the shrimp tacos, said they were delicious. My daughter went with the chicken tenders, which were the kind that are thin cut with breading, "the best kind", according to her. Fries were also delicious. We ate outside, but the inside of the restaurant was nice. My husband saw a truck go by that had a caged black bear, apparently on its way to being relocated! If we lived locally, we would definitely be regulars at the The Brick Pony! read more

Great staff. Welcoming and kind. Bartender and his cowboy hat, yassss! Food was amazing as well as drinks. Good upscale pub in the adorable downtown Basalt! read more

See all

I had the mushroom truffle pizza and burrata salad and they're both insanely tasty. Bartender was friendly and fun. Definitely recommend

Ordered the chicken tacos. Menu said 3 chicken tacos and slaw for $15. The food was quite good but when I got the bill it said $15 and then an add on of $3.00. The server had her smart phone glued to her ear and would hardly talk to me but she said the $3 up charge was for the Chicken. I asked what would be in the tacos w/o chicken and she said not much. Good thing I didn't order a hamburger. Probably would have had a $5 up charge for meat between the empty buns. Was planning to recommend the place to friends but not now read more

The bartender was beyond rude. We asked if we could sit outside with our dog and were told specifically that the patio was closed at a certain time. We stood outside coordinating our plans and arranged for our friend to take the dog home before walking back inside. The bartender looked at me like, "Uh...can I help you?" I said we'd like to have some drinks inside and he said, "Well we're closed," though there were several other people drinking at the bar and it was quite early. I said, "You just said the patio was closed, but now you're closed inside as well?" He confirmed this curtly and not so much as an apology for the confusion was offered. It was pretty clear our business was not wanted. read more

One of very best restaurants and bars in Basalt! Long time in business, reasonable prices and varied fare

We went around 5:00 with our girls. It was a pleasant spot with good food and drinks. Pizzas were yummy! Salads were big!

We wanted a beer and something to eat after skiing and were not disappointed. Fried pickles with ranch dressing, and more pickles than you would expect. Then on to their club sandwich served on rosemary focaccia bread, served with a large side of sweet potato fries. Best club he's ever eaten, according to my husband. And I'll have to agree. All very reasonably priced. You have to try this place. read more

Not a lot of options in basalt for late night eating. So we picked up sliders from here twice. The sliders were good and it's a reasonably priced place. However, I'm giving them only 3 stars for the service. Even though we ordered take out, both times the server never returned with the change. After waiting for 10 minutes, I just gave up as I had 2 kids waiting. I hate places where they think it's ok to do that. It's up to the customer to decide how much tip to leave, never ok for employees to just take the balance! read more

This place has a nice ambiance, especially the back patio, but the food is really average. I'd give it three stars if not for what went down with dessert. You see, I'd decided to go here specifically because of the Hot Chocolate Bread Pudding with Marshmallow Ice Cream. Bread pudding is my favorite dessert in the world and theirs sounded amazing. What I received was a grave disappointment. It was not bread pudding. It was a piece of warm chocolate sheet cake with ice cream in a bowl. And the cake tasted like it was straight from a box. Needless to say, I only had a few bites before I abandoned it altogether. I wanted to punch that bowl until my fists bled. Because I care deeply about bread pudding, I wanted to defend its honor and let the restaurant know that they show probably rename that item or else get a recipe for the real stuff. I waited until after we paid our check so that the waiter wouldn't think I was trying to get it for free. I politely let him know about the problem while he just stood there looking at me with a blank expression. When I finished my brief explanation he said, "Alright," and then walked away. So, on top of the truly mediocre meal, I wasn't too pleased with our server. But, seriously, that bread pudding is a travesty. If there were a court of law that protected restaurant patrons against bogus claims of delicious bread pudding, I would have placed the entire kitchen under citizen's arrest. read more

My husband travels through the Western slope of Colorado once per month. Occasionally I tag along and each time I beg him to stop at The Brick Pony Pub for lunch. I've eaten here several times now and the experience has always been wonderful. The atmosphere is awesome. The drinks and beer selection are really good. The menu isn't the same old thing you see everywhere else. I've not yet tried a single food item that I didn't absolutely love. The service is perhaps a little slower than some other places but you're in Basalt - life moves a little more casually here. Slow down and enjoy your meal and beverage! read more

Great little place that I tried on a recommendation from a friend. There were 5 in our group and everything we got was excellent - the mussels, wings, sandwiches and the Brick Pony burger which I had. The burger was done as ordered - it's a shame that's even worth commenting on but these days it's rare. or, well, it's frequently not, which is the problem. If you're going to cook everything well -then tell me and I'll get something else. But I digress... Beers were huge. Service was excellent - helpful suggestions, attentive but not overdone. If you're looking for great food in a casual atmosphere without a fuss this is your place. read more

Great food ice cold huge beers in frosty mugs. I always run into someone I know here. Try the 911 burger if you like a little heat it's my fav. read more

I wished like the food here better. Their menu is decent and the ambience is nice but when I get the food it falls a bit short, it seems each dish is missing something. read more

Great! Why?: Emily. Oh and the food was good, drinks, atmosphere....I'll be back. DT read more

Nice casual place. The buffalo meatloaf with mashed potatoes is damn delicious! Service was meh, but I feel that is to be expected in Basalt. read more

Not bad. Order wisely. No pizza, no fried chicken, and no fried pickles. Yes to Mac n cheese, Asian salad, burger, and sliders. I'm thinking they don't fry things well here. Large portions and the prices aren't bad. It's a neat bar restaurant and I like the ambiance. The food isn't great, but it'll do. It's okay. Okay is okay sometimes. read more

Great service. Great food, huge variety of food to keep everyone happy, great drinks. Super cute space inside. Love the location downtown, easy to walk to from the neighborhoods. read more

Have to say Kym is one of the best Bartender on the western slope. I will always come back if she working . Please give this lady a $50.00 gift card some where she is truly one of the best in the valley Thanks Kym Mark read more

The staff here is the best in Basalt! They all treat ya like family. The drinks are spectacular and the food never disappoints. I will be back! My favorite at the brick pony loaded nachos oh my gosh. My mouth is watering just thinking about them! read more

The food and fries were wonderful, & the drinks were honestly pretty damn amazing! The prices were rough! George Dickle offered, ordered and then she served it neat without asking and put a $2.00 up charge for getting a drink neat lol wtf. No thanks. Not ever again... read more

I love this place. I spend half of my time in Basalt and BBP is my go to place. Great muscles, tomato soup and chopped salad. Dinner menu is great. Jay Gottlieb Hollywood, FL/Basalt, CO read more

Food is good. Sometimes I do cringe at the price but honestly... for this area- they're pretty average. Staff are friendly enough. Vegetarian options are limited but they are there. Aside from the usual salad options, of course. read more

This place was our absolute favorite place to dine when we visited Basalt. We recently dined there and were so disappointed. My husband ordered fish & chips. In the past it was a good portion and very delicious. This time 2 small filets with the rest if the plate covered with French fries. We asked why the portion was so small and was told they changed it and now serve by weight. Ok we'll live with it. It's still tasty, right? No it was rubbery and the coating was falling off. We just asked to have it taken away. We didn't receive an alternative solution or a visit from the manager. Absolutely nothing. My husband ended up eating some of our son's macaroni and cheese. read more

If you are planning to order one of the brick ponies salads ,don't unless you don't mind paying for just greens. There were three of us and we all ordered a different salad off the menu only to find out that they only put a few of the ingredients in the salad that were listed. Goat cheese on two...no goat cheese, walnuts on one, no walnuts, pumpkin seeds and cranberry on one , nope! We told our wonderful server and he said he was sorry and there was no excuse for that then told us he'd take money off our bill... he took off 20%. Not sure if their scaling down their products but paying 15.00 for what was suppose to be a salad with multi ingredients and ending up with basically just greens was a dealbreaker. We won't be going back read more

Scooter. God among men. Master of masters. A gentleman to women..a bastion to men. If you don't love the Brick Pony and the staff your life is meaningless. Welcome to the best thing in Basalt.Greg is pretty good to! read more

Food was alright. Big portions and spicy. They did not have kid size pizzas just regular size.

Spicy pork sandwich was phenomenal! Bartender was attentive and friendly. Highly recommend.

I have been here three times and I cannot see giving this place more than one star. The last time I was here was the LAST time. I can excuse, to a certain extent, mediocre food and lackluster knowledge of the menu and beer (which is lackluster itself) from the staff, although, one lunch waitress did really try to get me the information I was interested to know. What I cannot excuse is the decibel level of the music making my party have to yell at each other to be heard over dinner the other night. Noise level can create an atmosphere and it can kill one, here they kill it after its already dead. This place is like a teenager screaming for attention but having nothing interesting to say. read more

Service food and atmosphere was excellent love this place. Great bar and beer on draft! Brought our kids and they treated them with great respect and always kept our glasses full. Highly recommend for everyone. read more
