Eat with the Locals

To get an authentic taste of what Park City restaurants have to offer, follow the locals. For an unforgettable alpine dining excursion, Collies at the Notch is where Parkites go for downhome BBQ and a mountain escape. The beloved Hearth and Hill is known as one of our top brunch spots. However, we also love them for their delicious dinners and live music on the patio. The well-kept secret, Freshie’s Lobster, serves up Maine lobster rolls and picnic-style salads. Grab your order to-go, and enjoy lunch at one of our fantastic parks.

Indulge in High-End Cuisine

Some of Park City’s best restaurants are found lining our historic downtown district, Main St. Café Terigo boasts fine Italian cuisine, a spectacular patio, and excellent downtown views. Wahso takes classic Asian dishes and reimagines them with finesse and sophistication.  

While Main St. gets a lot of attention, you can also enjoy some stellar dishes away from bustling downtown. Nestled in the Wasatch Mountains, Blind Dog serves up classic East Coast seafood dishes with a Park City twist. 

Searching for lodging in the heart of Main St. to maximize your access to eateries? Stay at the Heart of Park City, a beautiful, brand new private home just a quick jaunt from downtown. Motherlode 3, a gorgeous townhome, is a mere block from Main St. Plus, it’s only two blocks from the Town Lift, giving you easy access to the mountain.

Imbibe with Local Libations

There’s nothing quite like a perfect wine pairing with delicious cuisine. Old Town Cellars makes exceptional, food-friendly vino at their high-elevation winery. Stop by their Main St. tasting room to enjoy some Park City food and wine, or take a bottle to-go and enjoy it back at your luxury rental. 

Know what pairs well with a locally made beverage? A stunning Park City rental with spectacular views. Town Pointe C201 and Snow Flower 20 both feature private decks, ideal for taking in the scenery before or after happy hour.

Make it a Family Affair

Park City is home to a variety of family-friendly joints that cook up note-worthy eats. Twisted Fern serves modern American fare, with a focus on local, seasonal ingredients. No matter what you order, it’s always fresh and inspired. Their kid’s menu is just as impressive. If your whole family are die-hard foodies, this is the place for you. Want to be a part of Park City dining fame? Cruise by the kid-friendly Sammy’s Bistro featured on Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives for their popular, imaginative meals. One can’t leave our town without trying No Name Saloon’s famous buffalo burger. While that local hot spot is 21+ only, their partner restaurant, Annex Burger Park City, is all ages.
