We stopped in at Moe's after riding bikes for two hours around Vail Village - the barbecue sandwich and beer were an excellent meal after a long ride - customer service was great - would definitely return.

We arrived in Vail late and after checking in at Lionshead went looking for a drink and a quick bite to eat. Moes is nothing fancy but the burger and beer was good and hit the spot. The kitchen was busy doing a large takeaway order so took a while but gave us an extra dessert for waiting so it... More

All their sides are excellent, including the best baked beans ever. Prices are really reasonable for the neighborhood, this is my go to spot for food in... More

Excellent barbecue. The only hitch is that they only make so much, so you have to get your order in early. The space is not so nice, so it is best to bring it back to your condo and eat it there.

What more is there to say? If you are hungry and coming down the mountain in Lionshead this place is to the left and up the stairs on your way towards Lionshead hotel. We passed it every day last trip and didn't stop. Wish we had. It's not a fancy restaurant, just great BBQ at a good price with good... More

I loved this little place...Everything from the wood picnic tables outside and the Rastafarian music streaming through the music. And of course the food! It was reasonably priced with a good amount of food and FLAVORFUL! I didn't get to have any, but they seemed to have some good beer on tap too. Oh, and super customer service! Other stuff:... More

I am not a big fan of bbq but it must have been due to the fact that I haven't had any as good as this place. We ordered a variety of things and sides all of which were excellent: juicy, flavorful, and without those chewy, inedible bits I hate. They are fast but not to fast. What I mean... More
