Family fun activities and dining options we really enjoyed in Park City, UT:
Olympic Park - We visited this in the summer but there are lots of fun winter activities too! In the summer I highly recommend the ropes courses and watching the pool activities was a thrill.
Pizza downtown at Red Banjo Pizza was really great! Laid back vibe, great service.
Park City Roadhouse Grill is a grill and bar we have been to twice and enjoyed the burgers and fries! Central location and easy access to parking. We couldn't get a reservation on the app but called ahead and opted for an early dinner (5:00 pm) to beat the rush.
On ski days, we splurged and ate lunch on the mountain at one of the lodges. It was a perfect time to warm up on cold days spent skiing.
Mid-Mountain Lodge was our favorite. There are blue runs to get there so we found it much less crowded than the other lodges. We could show up at 11:30/12 noon and there would be seats available (upstairs). Food options were more diverse at Mid-Mountain lodge too than the standard fare at the other lodges.
One great tasty find was Popie 1929 meat pies at The Corner Store. We discovered we loved their Chicken Pie and the Pizza Pie too. They were sold out when we visited but the staff were able to find more in the back for us. The Chicken Pie was a perfect pastry filled with chicken and mushrooms in a cream sauce. The Pizza Pie was a tangy beef and tomato pie that the boys loved. The Corner Store was super cute too and I found a few treasures to take home as souvenirs from a fun trip.
We ate most of our meals (breakfast and dinner) in the Airbnb. After a long day of skiing, my crew just wanted to relax on the warm couch by a fire.
Breakfast each morning in the Airbnb were: Sausage on buttermilk biscuits with scrambled eggs and hot chocolate or coffee.
Dinners at night in the Airbnb included: Spaghetti with meatballs and french bread, Baked Chicken thighs with garden salad, Turkey Tacos with salsa and chips.
Other winter activities and dining I learned about but they were booked so we will plan to do these next time with advance reservations. If you are planning a trip to go to Park City - book these now!
Mountain Coaster at Park City Main Mountain
AlpenGlobe - Igloo Dinner(super expensive but would be a unique experience)
The Viking Yurt - On Mountain lunch or dinner
Other tips and tricks for skiing at Park City Mountain!
Take screen shots of the map of the mountain to save in your photo reel. We experienced poor 4G and Wifi connections on mountain AND in the lodges.
Don't rely on the information on the EPIC app for lift wait times - they were not accurate from our experience.
What other tips, tricks and dining experiences would you add to this list?
