Summer at Ajax Tavern means Aperol Spritzes on a sun-drenched patio while you watch the Silver Queen Gondola spin. The perfect spot to refuel for lunch or dinner after a day hiking or exploring the Aspen Valley, choose from a wide range of dishes and drinks to perfectly round out your day.

Located right next to the Silver Queen Gondola, Ajax Tavern is the hub for casual fine dining in an unbeatable atmosphere. The Tavern comes to life at lunch, and the party rolls on well into the night. If you go no further on the menu, try the truffle fries and Ajax double cheeseburger — they earned their reputation.
