Watson Cafe

"Big disappointment. As a long-time Alta devotee I was shocked, shocked that Watson’s has gotten rid of all the favs: No more burgers; no grilled cheese, no fries; no pasta or Mac and cheese. only two soup selections—and those are mediocre. Price tag for bowl of meh chili & salad: $37…"

"•They are doing burritos again this season. Didn't have one, but looked tasty. •Fountain soft drinks, but not allowed refills - seems kinda rude when it's $6 for the standard cup. Maybe sometime they will change it where refills are like ¢50 or something. •Fries were hot and perfectly salted. Large was $14. *Update 02/12/25- restaurant states they don't do refills due to public health, but what public health concerns are there now when every restaurant in SLC that has fountains allows refills? Seems like an excuse rather than a real reason. Additionally when we went it was $6 for the cup we purchased not $5....*"

"Great place to grab lunch on the mountain. Build your own burrito, grain bowl or salad for $20. Huge portions with tons of different options; everything was super flavourful!"

"Love Watsons. Good food for on-mountain dining. Great location and nice outside space when it warms up a bit in March/April. They try to make it sustainable by paying attention to both ingredients and the utensils++. You may also want to try the upstairs fine dining experience. Not many places in US has this. Nice (on mountain) menu and beautiful views."

"Great food. They have a shop downstairs where the sell Alta merchendise. Everything is great, and I fact I'm writing this review in the lodge right now, where I'm watching the skiirs pass while sipping my hot chocolate."
