Ajax Tavern

Ajax Tavern is currently open. Located at the base of Aspen Mountain, Ajax Tavern's sun-drenched, mountainside patio is the idyllic place for lunch, apres ski and dinner —our restaurant comes to life at lunch and sizzles into the night year around.

Ajax Tavern offers some of the best dining in Aspen, crafting distinctive bistro fare inspired by Colorado's bounty of sustainably raised meats and locally-grown seasonal produce, so you are guaranteed only the freshest and best. 

Our chef's innovative dishes include and signature selections such as Poached Rabbit Tagliatelle, Softshell Crab "BLT," and the Ajax Double Cheeseburger and Truffle Fries. For lighter fare, try our Pristine Raw Bar selections which features fresh oysters, shrimp and crab. The executive chef is Matt O'Neill. 

Ski in for après ski or cocktail hour, and enjoy our abundant selection of fine wines and aperitifs, or our signature martinis and Colorado-based microbrews.
