We went in to hear the music which was so great! We came from dinner where we had some beautiful wine and just wanted coffee and oh boy was that an excellent call! the Bartender made me a black coffee with natural coffee creama from the beautiful beans and my husband had a perfect cafe mocha...it's a pretty substantial coffee/expresso machine and they have a special coffee bean blend roasted just for them...outstanding! This was a great stop and we will be back!

Everything on the menu for dinner is pricey. Prices start at $14 for a salad and most dinners are $28-$48. I had a 10oz salmon with baked potato for $38.95, nothing special. So many other places in Crested Butt that have better food and prices. Cocktails were $6.50 and up.

Inside was noisy and claustrophobic so, while it was chilly outside, we sat by the river and enjoyed the view and people watching.

My wife, daughter, and 2 teenage grandchildren had lunch here, and we really enjoyed it. Food was great, service was good, had a great atmosphere inside with a little river flowing along side the restaurant with some outside creekside seating. They have some of the better Margaritas we have had--very strong! We were visiting here on vacation and my family want to go back for a second visit before we leave the area.

The food was OK. (2 smaller pizzas were fresh and hot, the big one came out cold and mediocre). We recommend the gluten free crust as it is a bit softer. If you want to sit for 2 hours, enjoying the atmosphere - it is nice. We just got antsy because everything took so long and they kept forgetting we had 6 people at the table- brought 5 of everything several times. We didn’t like the pear mule cocktail. While we're glad you enjoyed the atmosphere and some of your food, we're disappointed that our service and one of the pizzas just didn't hit the mark. We never want to keep you waiting and can assure you that we take your experience seriously. We'd love to have you back in for a much better time if you're willing to give us another try. We're sure we have plenty of other cocktails that will delight, and our service will be second to none.Best,Brick Oven Pizzeria and Pub

Start by sampling the rum, so you will understand what is going into your cocktail. We had a delicious rum-based old fashioned. My husband and I shared the Amalfi bowl and seared scallops. They were both wonderful. We had their rum truffles for dessert, just the perfect amount of sweet at the end of a meal. We would have gone an additional night because there were other dishes we wanted to try, but we ran out of nights. And the service was great.
