Had their house specialty burger with a cup of beef stew. Both were very good. I was absolutely stuffed as the burger was huge. It had a very cool casual atmosphere. The sevice was excellent, only complaint was it was a little pricey, but that's Vail.

What can one say. Small but excellent menu. Everything is made fresh to order. Service is attentive. Every day there is a very affordable and tasty special that includes a menu item + a beer. Everything I ate was fantastic, but the fish tacos are the best. We ate elsewhere, too, but this was our favorite and we ended up... More

Great menu and great atmosphere. Ate here three times in a week as the menu is perfect for refuelling after a long day on the slopes. Wings, nachos, burgers - all very good! De not beer selection too!

Delicious food, once we received it. Our group arrived just before a group of 11 near us, and yet received our food after our neighbors had completed their meal. After mentioning our frustration to our server (absence between taking our order and delivering our check) she responded with 3 "I'm sorry" comments and proceeded to deliver her standard 18% gratuity....

Bully Bar – Vail, Co A restaurant hamburger is expensive- no way around that fact. Buy a burger in a restaurant & you pay a lot more then when purchased in a fast food joint. OK. The restaurant typically provides a wider choice of meat preparation, a few more amenities and the environment more conducive to eating. Most eateries in... More

This is a great place for a casual lunch or dinner. They have a good variety and all the dishes I tried wewre well prepared. I like the Southwestern stew for the meaty, zippy flavor.

Great place for burgers after a long day of skiing. Our food came promptly and was really yummy. It has a nice ranch western feel in it and does not feel stuffy. It is a little pricey, but seems comparable to other places in Vail.

Looking for great burgers, sandwiches, soups or salads, then this is the place for you. Tucked away in the Sonnenalp hotel Nice rustic setting can be noisy when very busy so arrive very early or very late to avoid a wait. Their huge burgers and other hearty sandwiches are excellent, and tasty, although pretty pricey. Service has always been reliable... More
