Aspen Tap / Aspen Brewing Co in Aspen

The food and drink were retty good, but the service was absolutely terrible. From the very beginning, we were treated as an inconvenience. When we were initially being seated, it would have been next to a crowded table full of people we didn't know, so I had concerns. I requested for the two of us to instead be seated at a four person table and was scoffed at. When I casually explained that I was just more comfortable sitting at a less congested table, the person seating us again looked massively inconvenienced. It would have been totally fine if they had just told us that they couldn't accommodate us, but instead they chose to and then chose to remind us during every interaction that we weren't wanted. I get it, you lose revenue by not maxing out a table and letting 2 people occupy a 4 person spot. They should have just turned us away and it would have been fine. Would not recommend this place and will not be returning.

Yeah yeah the wide selection of beers are really refreshing. Yeah yeah the views of the mountains while drinking outside this spot is a must. Yeah yeah the French manager and the German waitress were affable and attentive. I love this kind of diversity *wink* But...did I mention the Caesar salad with extra anchovies? Fuk, that was delectable. I'll be back.

Wow from the rude way we were greeted by PAUL.. who tried to get us to go somewhere else. Then when we told him to go ahead and put our name on wait list (30 min wait time, not a problem we understood they were busy and under staffed) Paul seemed irritated. We walked around and came back when we were alerted our table was ready. Paul sat us at a large table. They sat another couple at the end of our table (which was no prob). The prob was how Paul spoke to the nice couple when they asked if they could sit somewhere out of the sun. PAUL's RUDE response was an abrupt and loud "No!" He tossed their menus on the table and walked away. Especially when there were other open tables in the shade. Way to go PAUL. Unbelievable! Food looked good on menu.. if you don't mind $28 small pizzas. Cesar salad was large and the dressing was really good. We ordered the Aspenite and an Arugula and prosciutto pizza. Both very good. But it took forever to get our food. Which we understand bcuz of staff issues. The waiter (young kid brown hair and mustache, didn't get his name) was super friendly and apologetic. The waitress that brought our beer was also nice but messed whose beer was whose. Good thing we were with family bcuz all of us played musical beers to figure out which beer w...
