We stopped in for a quick bite. I had the Kimchi and Pork melt. Amazing! The atmosphere was awesome. They had live music last night. Very cool vibes. The service staff were also very friendly. Definitely a place to stop in.

Very cool atmosphere to have food and drinks. We were here a year ago and loved it and decided to go back. Today we had cheese garlic bread for an appetizer followed by the hot honey pizza. Everything was delicious and the price is reasonable for this area.

No idea how this place doesn’t have more reviews. It had outstanding service, food, and drinks. We had the pepperoni Sicilian style pizza, Cesar salad, Garlic cheesy bread, and Italian sandwich for dinner. All of it including drinks were great.

Stopped in for lunch. Place was not busy and the staff was friendly. Inside was dimly lit, so eyes had a bit to adjust. Menu was quaint, but they had good options. Cool ideas for recipes. The food came out wonderfully. Lots of flavor packed into each sandwich. Hit the spot after a day on the slopes. The drink options were vast, but I chose a beer with the sandwich. Not terrible for mountain food on price.

A Bar Above has the most delicious food and drinks in all of Colorado! For me it is hard to choose between the Spicy Mortadella sandwich and the Gunni Hot Honey pizza! Of course I’ve had them both many times. I also am a huge fan of the NA Pineapple Poblano Margarita! I literally swoon over this mocktail. Here is a shout out to the owners Dewey and Elliot for hiring the artisanal chefs- Ben and Fran , hosting local musicians and creating a rare and wonderful ambiance!!

Delicious food, cozy atmosphere and friendly service. The Oaxaca old fashioned Cocktail was delicious, as were the salad and pizza. The servers were helpful, and knowledgeable. We would love to return.
