About

Slope Room is the restaurant and bar inside Gravity Haus Vail, on Gore Creek at 352 East Meadow Drive. It calls itself an alpine bistro: a modern take on New American and steakhouse cooking, built around pasture-raised meat and produce from Rocky Mountain farms and ranches, in a room that nods to the Old West.

It is open to everyone, not only hotel guests, and works for an après drink that turns into dinner, a couple's night out or a family table. Mornings belong to Unravel Coffee, which serves coffee and breakfast in the same room before Slope Room opens for the evening.

Where the food comes from

The kitchen names its suppliers: Fitch Ranch for beef and lamb, White Marble Farms for pork, Red Bird for chicken, Haystack Mountain for goat cheese, Elevation for charcuterie and Stem Ciders for hard cider. Executive Chef Taylor Frankel leads the kitchen, and the menus run from dinner and drinks to a seasonal prix fixe and house-made desserts.

Après and cocktails

Dinner and après run together from 5 p.m. The bar pours cocktails and mocktails alongside wines and beers, and the hotel sums up the mood as sitting down with an espresso martini after a day outside. The walk to Gondola One crosses the creek and runs through the village, so it is an easy first stop on the way back.

Booking and private events

Dinner reservations are recommended; book on OpenTable or by phone. The room hosts New Year's Eve, wedding toasts and private parties, and the restaurant takes event requests through its website. Gravity Haus members get a standing discount here and at Unravel; the FAQ has the details.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Slope Room take reservations?
Yes, and they are recommended. Book on OpenTable through sloperoom.com, or by phone: the restaurant's main number is (970) 696-8856, and its reservations page lists (970) 476-6836 for phone bookings (both numbers are the restaurant's own, published on different official pages). Dinner is the reservation service; the daytime room is a walk-up counter with Unravel Coffee and takes no reservations. Slope Room is inside Gravity Haus Vail at 352 East Meadow Drive, in Vail Village on Gore Creek.
What kind of food does Slope Room serve, and what is it known for?
An alpine bistro take on the New American steakhouse, built on Rocky Mountain farms and ranches: Fitch Ranch beef and lamb, White Marble Farms pork, Red Bird chicken, Haystack Mountain goat cheese. Executive Chef Taylor Frankel leads the kitchen. The dishes reviewers and the seasonal menus converge on are the heirloom cornbread ($16), the hamachi crudo ($29), the Colorado lamb ragu over house-made pappardelle ($42), and the Niman Ranch beef short rib ($58), with the S'More Baked Alaska ($16) to finish. The bar pours cocktails ($15 to $19) alongside a full zero-proof list, so a mocktail answer is built in rather than improvised.
When is Slope Room open, and does it close in the off-season?
Dinner and après run daily from 5 to 9 p.m., and the same room serves Unravel Coffee from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. (breakfast to 11:30 a.m., lunch 11:30 a.m. to 3 p.m., walk-up, no reservations). Slope Room does **not** close between seasons: it stays open through the spring and fall shoulders, and what changes is the menu. In fall 2026 that means a Fall Celebration prix fixe, three courses for $68 per person (beef tartare, short rib, and S'More Baked Alaska carry small supplements), available for parties of up to six. Always confirm current hours on sloperoom.com before a shoulder-season trip, because the seasonal menu, not the hours, is what rotates.
What is on the Slope Room menu, and how much does dinner cost?
Starters run $16 to $32 (heirloom cornbread, hamachi crudo, Sunflower Caesar, Fitch Ranch beef tartare), entrées $38 to $58 (masa gnocchi, lamb ragu, Idaho rainbow trout, Jidori chicken, short rib), and the grill runs $52 to $87 (Fitch Ranch flatiron and filet, elk strip loin), with desserts at $12 to $16. That is why the web's labels split: OpenTable's "$50 and over" describes an entrée, Google's "$100+" a full evening; budget roughly $75 to $130 per person for two courses and a drink, before tax and tip. Two money details worth knowing before you go: the fall prix fixe (FAQ 3) is the value route in the shoulder season, and the menu discloses a 2% surcharge on credit card transactions (cash, checks, debit, and gift cards are exempt). The full menus are at sloperoom.com/menu. Online ordering for pickup also runs from the site's Order Online link (Toast).
What do reviews say about Slope Room?
As of October 2026, reviews are excellent, and the volume is the story: OpenTable rates Slope Room 4.9 out of 5 from 2,761 verified diner reviews (food 4.9, service 4.9, ambience 4.7, value 4.5), with "Best Food" and "Best Service" Loved For badges in the Mountains category, and the restaurant replies to its reviews. Google rates it 4.4 from 621 reviews. Diners praise the hamachi crudo, the cornbread, the short rib and lamb ragu, the candlelit room with its David Yarrow photography, and special-occasion service; the recurring criticism in the recent record is thin staffing on quiet off-season nights.
What is the dress code at Slope Room?
Smart casual. OpenTable lists the dress code as Smart Casual and the dining style as Casual Elegant; the official site sets no dress rule of its own, and OpenTable's own diner FAQ glosses it as polished but relaxed, with many guests dressing up a touch for anniversaries and special occasions. Après ski clothes are the room's early-evening normal; no jacket is required.
Does Slope Room have gluten-free or vegan options?
The dinner menu prints its own marking system, "GF = Gluten Free, DF = Dairy Free", and asks guests to tell staff about allergies (its allergen line covers milk, egg, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat, soy, and sesame). The plant-led entrée is the masa gnocchi ($38, cashew butter, peanut chili crunch), with the Sunflower Caesar, watermelon salad, cornbread, and vegetable sides around it; at breakfast and lunch in the same room, the Gravity Bowl is marked gluten-free and the coconut chia pudding carries a vegan option. That is more precise than OpenTable's bare "Gluten-free Options" and "Vegan" attributes, and it is the version to rely on; call (970) 696-8856 ahead if gluten is a hard constraint.
Do I have to stay at Gravity Haus to eat at Slope Room, and do members save anything?
No. Slope Room is Gravity Haus Vail's restaurant, but it describes itself as a place locals and travelers share, and anyone can book a table, walk in for après, or order online. Gravity Haus members do get a standing benefit: 20% off at Slope Room and Unravel Coffee (the membership program's fuller terms describe it as 20% off food and non-alcoholic drinks for up to 5 people; the restaurant's specials page states the headline figure). Hotel guests and members also share the building's spa, gym, and coworking, which are covered on the Gravity Haus Vail listing.
Can Slope Room host a private event or a group dinner?
Yes. The restaurant takes event requests through the form on sloperoom.com (or [email protected]), its reservations page carries a private events section, and the hotel's groups team offers full Slope Room buyouts for weddings, rehearsal dinners, cocktail receptions, and corporate dinners; OpenTable names a private party contact, Christine Carwell, at (303) 503-4762. The room's spaces are the main dining room with its circular booths, a back dining room overlooking Gore Creek, the bar, and outdoor seating. One boundary worth knowing: the seasonal prix fixe is limited to parties of up to six, so larger groups order from the regular menu or book an event.
Is Slope Room good for families, and is there a children's menu?
Families are welcome, and the honest version has two halves. There is no children's menu on any of the restaurant's menus, and dinner is a 5 to 9 p.m., smart-casual service. But families visibly dine here and return annually, and OpenTable's diner record has children and teens eating from the regular menu (the lamb ragu and short rib are the named favorites), with the daytime Unravel service in the same room as the easier, counter-service option for younger kids. An early seating is the comfortable way to do dinner with children.
