About this restaurant

  • Great for scenic views
  • Hot spot
  • Good for special occasions
Cloud Nine Alpine Bistro is a ski-in/ski-out, cozy European style cabin, a legendary restaurant on top of Aspen Highlands. With views of the iconic Maroon Bells, dining here is a bucket-list worthy experience.

Lunch service feels like a slice of Switzerland in the Rocky Mountains with layered helpings of fondue and raclette as well as steak tartare, caviar and delectable daily specials. The wine list includes an ever-changing array of international varieties and fine Champagne. For dessert: strudel, anyone?

At the top of the Cloud Nine Ski lift, we are a ski-in, ski-out restaurant.
Join us every Wednesday and Thursday night for our public open-snowcat dinners! Seating is limited to 40 guests, and has an 18 person minimum. To learn more please visit our website at https://www.aspensnowmass.com/our-mountains/aspen-highlands/dining/snowcat-dinners-at-cloud-nine

    They were kind enough to change our reservation from first seating to second seating, and told us they would put us in a closed room, which we were happy. We ended up in the middle of the place without knowing what was going to happen. Incredible experience, though our electric grill was brought to our table minutes before the first song. We were transferred outside after we just walked out. Would have appreciated experiencing the food more and told not to order what we did as they were not going to get it on time for us for the “tradition”. Hence, serving is too short for the party experience.

    * champagne 'rain' w/DJ party starts in the afternoon, w/ people standing/dancing on tables. if you want to stay 'dry', sit on the smaller back room side (but you'll still hear/see the party) * steak tartare, charcuterie and fondues--and champagne rule the day! * this place is on the Aspen Highlands mountain--great views, and you'll need to be at least an Intermediate-level skier to access

    The food was excellent! The atmosphere was lively and most of the staff was great. Some of the crowd seemed a bit pretentious... It was a nice break from the snow. Not your typical on the mountain restaurant.

    Great crazy experience that you would expect at the 2 pm seating at Cloud 9. It’s a great fun experience.
