The Trailhead Restaurant can be entered from the gift shop. At the Trailhead you may enjoy breakfast, lunch or dinner and beverages, including regionally brewed and national brand beers, served from our Old West log bar. The experience of the Trailhead will be unforgettable as you dine surrounded by a panorama of towering mountains and the nearby seductive high peaks and forests of Rocky Mountain National Park.For those wanting a truly remarkable dining experience, try a meal on our expansive log and stone pillar open-air deck. From your table you will be treated to a magnificent view of mountains soaring above Fall River as it winds past forests, meadows and grazing wildlife. To the east you will see Fall River Valley bordered by mountains. To the west are majestic high peaks with a glimpse of Trail Ridge Road, leading to the Continental Divide and all that awaits you ahead in the Park, including the region’s highest mountain: Long’s Peak.While enjoying your meal or drink, have a park meal prepared, packed and ready-to-go when you are. Or, if a visit to our restaurant is not possible, you may simply want to take snacks, coffee, or other beverages and one of our packaged lunches with you. Don’t forget dessert!

We stopped for a late breakfast and very much enjoyed the food and the view. The pancakes are fluffy, and the syrup is yummy. The scrambled eggs are moist/buttery. We tried a cinnamon roll, and it was very fresh, again buttery/moist, with a delicious frosting. I enjoyed the bloody mary, 4 olives yay, but the celery stalk was only a celery top which was odd. The coffee was "okay". Our waiter was very nice. The view was spectacular. We would definitely come again for a meal, but also for just a drink and pastry to sit and relax.

Grabbed lunch here before hitting RMNP, had the Mountain Man Burger, which was good but tough and needed some fat mixed in with the wild game meat. Had a good sauce though. Decent beer selection with some local breweries and the typical national brands. The spinach and artichoke dip was good with a touch of heat to it. Kids seemed to enjoy the kids menu and the little outdoor play area for the kids was a nice touch. They have a small outdoor seating area with good views of the mountain side. There is a large gift shop inside with plenty of souvenirs as well.

Nice atmosphere and views, and the food I had was very good. I ordered the fettuccini Alfredo with chicken. Besides it's good flavor, the sauce was just right: not thick or runny or heavy.
