There’s a terrific list of dining options in Golden and in true Modern Traveller fashion, I’m only speaking to the ones that I’ve experienced. No silly AI garbage happening here.

Eagle’s Eye, previously mentioned and located at the top of the gondola route in the ski section, has good pub fare, vivacious views and how many other restaurants can you say you’ve dined at that are atop a mountain?

Ethos is a cute breakfast spot in town with fresh made sandwiches and a local hotspot. Sometimes there’s a lineup early in the morning of skiers on their way to the mountain but the line moves quickly.
