Wildwood Express Cafe

Wildwood Express Cafe

Main Vail, Vail, CO

Crema's Take

“Wildwood Express is a mountain-top BBQ haven that doubles as a solid coffee stop, perfectly positioned at the top of Sundown Bowl for ski-in convenience and serious comfort food cravings. Their smoked meats—particularly the fall-apart tender pulled pork and ribs—are genuinely exceptional for on-mountain dining, and the chicken wild rice soup pairs perfectly with a warm cup between runs. With reasonable pricing, the Epic Pass discount, and outdoor seating to soak in the altitude and views, this spot strikes that rare balance between quick fuel-up and destination-worthy meal.”

What to expect

Classic coffee drinks done right. A quick-grab spot, outdoor seating. Light food on the menu.

BBQ Food and rest station spot on the top of Sundown bowl. Get the BBQ, then keep skiing.
