Snowbasin Restaurants & Bars
With no village at Snowbasin, guests have a choice between the restaurants and bars inside Earl’s Lodge at the base area, or a trip to either Huntsville or Ogden.Typically open from 11am until 5pm, the Cinnabar Lounge is a popular option with skiers after a day on the slopes, offering a variety of wines, liquors and beers, while the bar is particularly lively on Fridays and Saturdays when live music runs on until 6pm.
For those wanting a bite to eat at Earl’s Lodge, the Earl’s Lodge Dining Room and the Huntington Bistro are both good options, open from 8am until 3pm and 10am until 3pm respectively. The restaurants are in close proximity to one another, with the latter the more formal of the two. The bathrooms aren’t bad at Earl’s Lodge either…
Aside from the offerings at the mountain, there are also a number of restaurants in the nearby towns of Huntsville and Ogden. The old railway town of Ogden boasts a good selection of restaurants and tends to be a popular spot for an evening meal. The Union Grill steak house serves some excellent meaty dishes, while the Roosters Brewing Company and Restaurant is also popular. It is also possible to grab a bite to eat in Huntsville, with the Shooting Star Saloon and the Texas Pride Barbeque two of the most central restaurants.

Snowbasin Apres-Ski
Apres-ski is not the name of the game at Snowbasin, which has relatively little to offer in the way of evening entertainment, though it is possible to have an enjoyable night out in nearby Ogden.
Slope side après-ski is non-existent at Snowbasin. Earl’s Lodge closes at 5pm on weekdays and 6pm at weekends, bringing an early end to proceedings at the base area, while up on the mountain, the Needles Lodge Dining Room closes at 4pm each day.
With Eden and Huntsville both known as fairly quiet towns, the closest available après-ski can be found either in Ogden or in Park City. With a youthful reputation for fun, Park City is the livelier of these two options, but is considerably further away. Ogden, meanwhile, offers a more refined après-ski, with visitors likely to spend their evening in one of Ogden’s many restaurants.
