With its floor-to-ceiling windows and an always-fun vibe, The Remedy Bar is the place to warm up during the lunch hour or linger on to watch alpenglow bathe the hills. At this hip lounge and dining area within the Four Seasons Resort and Residences Vail, you can snack, drink and dine to the sounds of live music three nights a week or unwind while watching snowflakes fall beyond the outdoor patio’s cozy fire pit. And all who gather here love choosing from a playful menu that embraces the theme of food and drink as remedies for whatever the day may hold.
The Remedy Bar is well known for its innovative beverage program, which makes it a not-to-miss destination for fresh food and drink pairings.
“We create all of our own juices and shrubs in house for a refreshing taste in our fruit-based drinks,” said bar manager Aaron Ritrovato.
A shrub in this context is a fruit-based cocktail ingredient that creates a pleasantly balanced taste rather than a sugary or syrupy sweetness. Try out this smooth-sipping addition in the colorful V, a vodka cocktail that includes the housemade blueberry and rosemary shrub, St-Germain, citrus, and the bubbly goodness of Veuve.
While the V is just one example of The Remedy Bar’s creative originals, new takes on classic cocktails are also done well here. Some unorthodox muddling and shaking—along with a Remedy select bourbon—makes the Remedy Old Fashioned an easy-drinking version that pales others in comparison.
Whether you’re snacking or dining at The Remedy Bar, options range from a steak frites entree to the Rocky Mountain elk red chili, complete with three types of beans, Hatch red chiles, sour cream, beehive cheddar and jalapeño cornbread. Settle in with a gourmet pizza or something to share, such as spinach and artichoke dip, which includes jumbo lump crab and oven-dried tomatoes in a creamy delight to be piled atop naan bread. the ten alarm chili bison burger is also a hit, with bacon, pepper jack cheese, chili compote, avocado, chili relleno and fries.
