"This spot was originally a gas station in the 1940s, but the current owners renovated the historic log cabin in the early ‘80s. Since then, it’s been one of the best places to eat meat and seafood in town—we’re talking about stuff like buffalo ribeye, jackalope sausages, baked oysters, and crab cakes. Inside, you’ll find elk heads, expired license plates, and silver-haired locals (known in the Vail Valley as “pioneers”) that make the whole space feel like a real-life Clint Eastwood movie set." - kim fuller
