7 Restaurants To Try In Sun Valley Idaho

Hello Pretty ladies,

I hope you are having a great start to your March; it’s still snowy here in Utah. I am so ready for Spring. If you’ve been following me or reading my blog, you know our family loves Sun Valley, Idaho, and we take two ski trips there a year and have for over 16 years. Ben and I go for Ben’s birthday, and then we take the family every March around Hampton’s birthday, Which is usually always around Spring break. This year we all need sun and sand for spring break, and our switching the Annual Sun Valley trip for somewhere without snow. 

Today, I am sharing 7 Restaurants to try, In Sun Valley, Idaho, for you to try on your visit. These are some of our family’s favorites and repeaters for us. I hope you’ll love them as much as we do.

A Little About Sun Val ey

Sun Valley is a great little ski town, home to two significant ski areas and a sister resort to Snow Basin in Eden, Ut. (where we live)  It’s in Ketchum, Idaho, with fun little shops and excellent restaurants. We love to stay at The Sun Valley Lodge. You can’t go wrong dining at any of the restaurants on their property, but I have included three of our favorites: The Konditorei, Gretchen’s, and Dutchin’s Lounge.

Konditorei

Fireside coffee and hot cocoa. Fresh-baked European pastries. Casual dining for breakfast and lunch, with an Austrian twist. This is a daily stop for us, as w  love, their breakfast, and we like to stop by for an afternoon coffee and treat. This is not to be missed.

Gretchen’s

Adjacent to the Sun Valley Lodge lobby, Gretchen’s and The Duchin Lounge provide an exceptional dining experience. Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner are served daily At Gretchen’s.

Duchin Lounge

A cozy, welcoming bar and lounge serve handmade cocktails, craft beer, and tasty bites in the Sun Valley Lodge lobby.

View Restaurant in the Sun Valley Inn. The Duchin Loung serves unique cocktails & appetizers, “the brussel sprout appetizer is amazing” with a beautiful atmosphere and a nightly live piano player.

Restaurants in Sun Valley

Saw Tooth Brewery -The Sawtooth Club has been the gathering place for Ketchum locals and visitors since 1987. And for a good reason! Always warm, comfortable, and welcoming, intimate yet lively. Rustic elegance and sophistication without pretension. The Sawtooth Club is in downtown Ketchum. Happy Hour is from 4:30-6:00. You should arrive at 4:30 for a seat. Dinner reservations are highly recommended.

The Celler Pub– A locals hang out, Good strong drinks (I like their Moscow mule), and a great happy hour. We always meet fun people and have great conversations. 

Lefty’s – A local’s hang out, not a touristy spot. Very casual and affordable sports bar serving Grill and bar food. Families welcome, and they have a couple of arcade games for kids to be entertained. It gets very crowded, and you could wait a while for food if you get there at peak hours. 

 

The Roundhouse

They were serving up sky-high lunches and dinners with breathtaking views.

Perched atop the Roundhouse Express gondola at 7,700 feet of elevation on Bald Mountain, The Roundhouse has served memorable meals, soul-warming drinks, and stunning views since 1939. The Roundhouse is America’s original on-mountain dining experience and offers the authentic charm of America’s etched elegance for which Sun Valley is known. Reservations are highly recommended. The view is worth the prices, which are on the higher end.

View Restaurant

Ketchum Starbucks– If you’re a Starbucks lover, this is a must-stop! Fun architecture with exciting history, including a vault and Hemingway art, not to mention great photo opportunities.
