What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Zane's Tavern is praised as an unpretentious local gem offering classic bar food at affordable prices, a welcome contrast to Aspen's usual upscale dining. While many rave about the burgers, cheesesteaks, and wings, a few reviewers noted issues with service or specific menu items not meeting expectations.
"Great service, owners teen son helps out and seems like a solid young man, and the Philly was legitimately one of the best I’ve ever had. It’s not good “for Aspen” it’s just amazing overall. The fries were really good too. I want to try other menu items but the Philly is so good (I add jalapeños) it’s hard not to get it."
Michael Dill
"The wings are very very good! The tvs all were playing hockey game except one with baseball. Suggest playing a few more sports on the other tvs. Great atmosphere and my server was so smiley and nice!"

"Very solid sports bar - good vibes, good service, and chill atmosphere. Was totally caught off guard by the spectacular bacon cheeseburger I had. All the little stuff was done right - the double patties were both cooked perfectly, and the bacon tasted like it was actually freshly made to order, unlike most. Best burger I’ve had in a long time."

Those seeking an answer to the sudden loss of Little Annie’s Eating House might want to check out Zane’s Tavern, a hidden treasure of sorts (not so hidden to the sideburn-wearing locals) in terms of food quality and decent deals on suds.
