Moffat Station Restaurant and Bar

We were visiting from Chicago, late on a Thursday night, we had no choice but to eat here as it seemed the only place open in the area. Place was very odd. There was one person that was greeting, taking orders, bar tending and delivering food. Spent a lot of their time behind the bar putting orders in on the iPad. This person was pleasant when they came to table but got our order wrong so we had to wait even longer for our food. Food was not good and we only ate some if it because we were starving. An odd, negative and tense-​filled situation when a family of 8 people came-​in and there were unhappily told they couldn’t sit at one table together but had to sit at separate tables. The place was empty. Service was not good. If we lived here, we wouldn’t come back.

The porter tasted contaminated. The Christmas abbey and saison tasted like water. They were out of the IPA and stout. Didn’t finish our beers despite being thirsty and it being happy hour. Service was also slow. Weird atmosphere.

Slow service but polite (could just be that it is summer and raining outside). The food is way below average especially for the price. Fettuccini taste like it is from a jar and the chicken is totally bland.
My wife had the chilly which also tastes like it is from a large can and not a good one.
Kids had Mac and cheese. Tastes like it is a Kraft knockoff.
I only give this 2 stars because the staff was nice.

Food and service was terrible. Kids Mac n cheese was $ 7 which wouldn’t be horrible for a ski town if it weren’t Kraft Mac and cheese straight from the box, then under a heat lamp until top layer was totally dried out. Burger patties are straight from Sysco frozen food, totally over processed and not very good (dry and tasteless), not to mention the burnt bun it was served on. Portobello mushrooms where soaked in vinegar and inedible. My husband said in the 5 years we’ve been married, plus dating before that he’s never seen me send anything back, it was that bad. For $ 78 we could have picked a number of better eateries in WP and enjoyed our meal. My husband was served flat cloudy been from the bottom of keg. Only tasty item was the fried pickles.
I hardly ever write a review but this place is a total miss!

Food was great but the menu was limited. I wish they had more staff. The beer was pretty good too. I just wish they had more options since I stayed in their hotel. It was good for 1 – 2 meals at best/

With very few people in the place and very few options on the menu u would think they could provide food in a timely manner. Hour later! The wings were ok. The soup was horrible.

Well, they do have food… if you can put up with the service! We waited 45 minutes and finally had to be assertive and ask for menus, a server, drinks, utensils, and our check. Basically we served ourselves.
We were staying at the hotel the restaurant was in and the food and beer were really good. However, I have never received such poor service in my life! I would have complained to the Manager but she was one of the worst.
I guess this property has gone through 2
Management changes in the last year. I thought I was on an episode of Kitchen Nightmares or Bar Rescue. I would stay away from this place!!!

Must try some of their micro brews. Ipa was wonderful, the friend portabella strips were great, They did serve a side of mayonaise? Not sure what that is about

The Good: If you ever get served by Rogmaris, you’ll have fabulous service and great conversation. The cranberry chipotle sauce on the wings is also recommended. King beds are excellent for cuddling purposes.
The Bad: Apparently the hotel is under new management and horribly understaffed. Rogmaris was working the entire restaurant on her own. The brewer is MIA somewhere on Europe, so there were no house beers on tap.
The Ugly: Who enjoys a spa bath on their own? A spa bath, if advertised, should be able to accommodate parties larger than one.

We asked for the menu. They said they were creating one based on whatever they have left in the kitchen. Hmmmm.

Landed at the bar and were quickly greeted and got our drink orders in. Bartender and the waiters were all very friendly and courteous. Myself and 5 friends all ordered something different from the food menu. By the end of the night we had all agreed they were the best meals we’ve had while in Colorado. Will definitely be returning if I end up near Winter Park again.

Great atmosphere, really friendly service, great food! They also have a new brewer in house brewing craft beer — fantastic! Tried the new Belgian wheat and ESB, both were awesome! Definitely recommend!

Do not eat here. Breakfast service had trouble with basics like keeping the coffee pot and orange juice full. Dinner service served $ 10.50 nachos with soggy chips and gross cheese. The $ 13 burger was decent but under cooked and the fries were limp. Very disappointing.

New management, new chef, great food, fun place, great for groups and families. Try the 1pound Kobe burger!

NOT a brewery, do not be fooled by the sign/​name. We were staying at the resort across the street, and as craft beer lovers, were intrigued by what we thought was a mountain town brewery. After climbing through some muddy snow & crossing Hwy 40, we were disappointed. This place does not brew their own beer. We were told a story that a brewer friend had dropped out to start a brewery in Aspen, and they had not gotten around to taking down the giant BREWERY sign hanging on the front of the building.
Typical bar food, nothing special.

We had a great time here. The hotel, it’s staff, and its décor is typical mountain town slacker, but the restaurant and bar staff were excellent. The vibe of the bar is different, and really better than anything else in the building, with a lot of wood, exposed beams, and a cool setup with the brew tanks above the bar.
As Don B. exclaims in another review, the fried spinach is truly extra-​ordinary. It’s not oily, as you might imagine, and the light flakes of spinach melt in your mouth kinda like cotton candy. After trying this my thinking is «if you’re going to use oil for salad dressing, why not fry the spinach instead?» I have no idea how to calculate the calories on this dude, but I imagine it can’t be any worse than a typical salad with an oily vinaigrette. Very unique and something worth trying.
It was on the same level as our room so we stopped by for a quick drink before and after dinner each night. By far and away the best aspect of our visits was our friendly and enthusiastic bar tender Topher. He was very attentive, immediately recognized us, never left us thirsty, and was always visibly excited about doing his job.
I had an excellent manhattan, a delicious real-​fruit margarita and a couple of solid-​if-​not-​brilliant local beers over the course of our visits, but my wife’s highlight was Topher’s sweet pepper martini. It’s a vodka martini that uses a bell pepper as the sour/​bitter component. The result, with the sulphury flavors of the pepper balancing the sweet lemon of the vodka was truly clever and unique.
If you find yourself here, and I think that the little bar is worth a trip, be sure to ask Topher for one of his sweet pepper martinis. Tell him that Jon and April sent you.

Great food, Menu changes every week, nothing over $ 12 the Shandies are great and refreshing. Great Staff love the clean hotel rooms

I have nothing bad or good to say about the hotel that Moffat Station is housed in. I didn’t stay there. What I really came for, taking a time consuming drive over Berthoud Pass from I-70(even if it is 27 miles off of the interstate there are hair pin curves galore… it takes time to get to Winter Park), was to get beer. I am trying to hit as many breweries as possible. I was under the impression that the place would be open because I looked on their website to confirm. It had hours posted for bar and restaurant hours… completely failing to mention that these were hours for when the ski season started and NOT during the off season. A drive over to Winter Park for nothing, a wild goose chase.
Moffat Station is open during the off season but their hours are strange. Friday night, Saturday morning, Sunday evening… blah blah blah, are supposedly when they are open. Not a good experience.

The first reviewer must have caught the place on a very bad day. We have been here all week and the bartenders and staff have been great. The food may not be top tier gourmet but it was far from horrible. In fact it was quite good each time we ate there. (Pizza was surprisingly good!) They also catered a wedding party that we were attending in the resort and the food was excellent.
True, the place caters mostly to lodge guests but so what? No long lines waiting to eat that way.
Maybe not a five star location but a solid 3.5 — 4 in our opinion.

Avoid this place at all costs! This «brewery» had one in house beer, a very ordinary Scottish Ale. Despite being virtually empty the kitchen took forever to make a hamburger. The portabello wrap came complete with several very long hairs cooked in. The hamburger came out raw. Heck, even the fries were awful.
The bartender, who was clearly embarrassed to be working there, didn’t charge us and gave us directions to a couple very good places in town. He also filled us in that the brew master is terrible and that the only business the Moffat gets is those staying at the hotel.
If you are staying at the Winter Park Mountain Lodge, have a car or bring food!
