Not to be confused with the distillery located in Wanship, High West is easily one of the more popular hot-spots in town. Located just off Main Street on Park Avenue and at the bottom of Quittin' Time ski run, High West is the world's first and only ski-in gastro-distillery. Modeled after traditional Old West saloons and housed in a historic, Victorian home built in 1914, High West is the perfect place to grab a few cocktails made with High West's own whiskey or vodka and their savory appetizers. Local favorites include the pretzel and beer cheese, High West burger and the mac & cheese.

Purple Sage

The unique cuisine of Purple Sage focuses on the bold and rustic flavors of the American west, with a modern and sophisticated twist. House specialties include the award-winning meatloaf, sugar and chile cured duck, local free-range beef and fresh Utah trout. This small eatery offers up generous portions with that home-cooked feel from your childhood. You'll want to arrive early or make reservations, as Purple Sage has very limited seating and fills up quickly.
