High West Distillery & Saloon - Park City, UT


I wasn’t a fan of whiskey… until last week. High West Distillery & Saloon is a newcomer to the Park City area and is simply awesome. Located a block off of Main Street, this old garage and house converted into a restaurant and distillery creates one of the coolest and unique spaces to dine and sip their homemade whiskey drinks in. Yes, they distill their own whiskey and vodka. Try to snag a seat in the living room before dinner to catch up with friends to discuss who had the nastiest spill on the slopes. I would recommend the Fancy Whiskey Cocktail to ease the bumps and bruises. For dinner head over to the main dining room in the garage (I suggest you make a reservation) and stick to the small plates so you can sample a variety of the amazing food, including the short ribs, tri-tip, duck breast, mac and cheese, the salads and the soups. On your way out the door grab a bottle of whiskey to go and make your reservation for next season.
