Java Stop

Java Stop

7:30AM - 4:30PM (EVERY DAY)

Java Stop is located on the mid-level floor in the main lodge near the Gunbarrel Grill. We’ve partnered with Brown Dog Coffee to bring you the freshest, locally roasted coffee and espresso. Along with hot chocolate, hot tea, sandwiches, baked goods and lighter to-go fare make this a great, first morning stop for coffee and a breakfast sandwich, a quick mid-day stop for a power drink and sandwich, or an end of day stop to grab a java or hot chocolate for that drive home.

Sidewinder Saloon

Sidewinder Saloon

10:30AM - 5:30PM (EVERY DAY)

Considered one of the best restaurants in Ski Country, the Sidewinder Saloon features full-service sit-down dining, locally crafted beer and spirits, and a full menu. Try one of our juicy Angus Beef burgers and a specialty bloody mary, or share our famous nachos or bacon-wrapped jalapeno poppers with a friend. The Sidewinder Saloon is the perfect break spot for a relaxing lunch and to check up on the latest sports scores. The Sidewinder is busiest between 11:30 – 1:00, especially on weekends and holidays. Come in a little earlier or later on these days to avoid the lunch rush.

Elmo's Bar

Elmo’s Bar

9:00AM – 3:00PM (FRI-SUN+HOLIDAYS)

Elmo’s is the local’s secret watering hole conveniently located on the mid-level floor in the Pioneer Room. Here, we serve up tamales, stadium style nachos, cocktails, beer and, of course, our house-made bloody marys complete with bacon (if you want)! Swing by and take a load off with a refreshing beverage. (Elmo’s is named after Elmo Bevington who purchased Monarch in 1968 and is responsible for some of the early improvements on the mountain, such as the installation of the Breezeway and Garfield lifts, both which have been modified and updated in the years since then.)

Fly-By Burritos

Fly-By Burritos

10:00AM - 3:30PM (EVERY DAY)

You don’t even need to come inside for a hardy meal! Fly-By Burritos is our food truck parked right up to the deck off the main lodge. The colossal burritos or burrito bowls is all the fuel you need to recharge and get back out on the slopes. Beers and other beverages are also conveniently available. Enjoy a break on the deck or, if your pocket’s big enough, you can pack a burrito in your pocket to enjoy later.
