Lunch at Deer valley is expensive , but well worth it. The lowest prices are in the creperie in the building behind Silver Lake Lodge. The cafeteria, at Snow Park, Silver Lake, and Empire Lodges, is not to be missed. This will change your mind about what can be done in a cafeteria. The highest in price ($27) and quality is the Skiers’ Buffet (all you can eat) at Stein Ericksen Lodge at the top of Viking Chair.
Our favorite is the Goldner Hirsch, behind and to the left of Silver Lake Lodge. There are full-service restaurants, all with good food, sorted by increasing prices: Pierre’s Bistro (the condo building at the intesection of Success and Last Chance), Bistro Toujours (near the creperie), Sai Sommet (Silver Link), McHenry’s Grill (Silver Lake Lodge), Goldner Hirsch, and Stein’s. The price range for burgers is from $8, at the cafeterias, to $17, at Stein’s.
