“Try the courtyard special, it’s way too delicious to pass up!”

Daylight Donuts

Daylight Donuts is a great choice for when the family needs to grab a quick-bite before hitting the slopes. The menu is simple, the table layout is very group friendly and their baked treats are out of this world! Here is what the VisitBreck team had to say about this local favorite:

“Eat breakfast and take donuts to go for your day of adventure, Daylight is located within walking distance of the gondola!”

“Daylight is a great spot if you want to grab a quick donut, pastry, or breakfast burrito to go OR if you are trying the sit down and have a delicious cooked breakfast. The staff is friendly, the food is delicious, and the atmosphere speaks to the local and down to earth feel of Breckenridge! It really says a lot when, on the busier days, the line is out the door and you can still find a ton of locals waiting for a great breakfast. Well worth the wait if there is one, get their early for the best selection, and don’t forget it’s cash only!”

Lunch & Dinner

Downstairs at Eric’s

Eric’s is frequently listed as the top family dining destination in Breckenridge for many obvious reasons. On top of their famed crafty and unique pizza creations, Eric’s has a full-fledged Arcade, photo booth, and HDTV’s galore. The Garbage Pizza is the local favorite. Grab the whole fam and head over to Eric’s for a meal and experience that will leave your entire crew cheesin’!

Sancho Tacos & Tequilas

The glowing reviews say it all—Sancho Tacos is a fantastic family dining option in Breckenridge. If tacos and margaritas are your bag, look no further. If some members of the family are not craving Mexican food, not to worry, kids are able to order from Empire Burger next door. Sancho’s is known for its great vibes, friendly staff and mouth-watering tacos.

“Our family loves Sancho’s…their queso is the best! My favorite taco is the Chicken Tinga.”

Soupz On

I’ll let this VisitBreck review speak for itself… check this place out! Located right next to City Market in Breckenridge. Soupz On is ideal for grabbing a quick, delicious lunch at a great price.

“The fact that you can eat here every day of the week and get a completely different soup, sandwich, or salad AND everything be delicious, speaks volumes to their well-crafted rotating menu. Taste a soup or two when you walk in the door before settling on the one you want; They are all so good! This is certainly a local’s favorite and is often overlooked by visitors, but it shouldn’t be! Vegetarian options every day for both soup and sandwiches is also a huge plus. The taco salad is incredible!”

Giampetro Pasta & Pizzeria

This cozy pizzeria is everything the whole family is looking for. Their genuine Italian creations have been filling the bellies of visiting families for decades. You can’t go wrong on any of their pizzas or main dish offerings. A big local tip is to get there early or be prepared to wait a little, Giampetro is a busy place year-round!

“Giampietro is a family fav! They have homemade pizza, calzones and other Italian dishes. Everything there is so good. Don’t order without getting Arancini, fried risotto & mozzarella." 

Kenosha Steakhouse

A longstanding VisitBreck favorite, Kenosha is a great place to refuel after a long day on the slopes or hiking trails. Their authentic, smoked BBQ options are easily paired with a beverage from their craft beer menu. Kid's options run in much of the same style: ribs, BBQ pork sandwiches and burgers. The whole family will be smiling after this one!

“Kenosha has a diverse menu, reasonable prices, seating capacity for large groups, and a great atmosphere. If you want to watch the game, head upstairs where there’s no such thing as a “bad view” of a TV. Or if the weather is nice, Kenosha has plenty of outdoor seating (in the summer) with great views of the resort, horseshoe pits, and a play area for children.”

Pure Kitchen

A perfect option for large groups, families and healthy food enthusiasts alike. Clean ingredients. Tasty dishes. Pure Kitchen is an upscale, healthy dining experience in Frisco, Colorado; from the food served to the warm atmosphere. You can taste the authenticity and uniqueness in every dish since they have carefully crafted our menu.
