The Thirsty Squirrel - Solitude

A great place to unwind with friends and chat with the locals. Price per person: $10–20 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Great place for a lunch snack or apre-ski drink. Lively, great bar keeps.

The best big cottonwood canyon bar by far! They're actually reasonably priced, even up at a resort. The service is always good! And I love how they actually have a pool table. No mountain bars really do, it's a great addition. I ride Brighton, but I'd rather drive down to solitude after riding and hit the squirrel, rather than staying at Brighton for Molly Greens.

Drinks are weak but relatively cheap compared to 90% of most ski resorts. Great vibe. Super convenient to take a quick break for a hot drink and Rumple shot.

Staff need a major attitude adjustment. Did not advise that they were missing several ingredients advertised in their nachos. Refused to refund when order was not as advertised.
