Sadly, there was nothing extraordinary about this place. Yes, many gf options, but overpriced and mediocre. Chicken bites- unseasoned and bland, birria tacos- tasted nothing like birria and bland, Banh mi- very light on the pickled veg and very fatty pork pieces, again just bland. We went for dessert and I would advise against the basque cheesecake. Tasted frozen and very hard. It was awful. This is a nice place to have an expensive drink and maybe an appetizer while enjoying the outdoor patio.

First I would like to thank everyone who took the time to write a review for Meat & Cheese Restaurant and Farm Shop. When a client suggested us eating lunch here I did my quick search to see what my risk might be. After reading other members’ reviews I agreed to eating at this establishment. Being celiac it is very difficult finding a restaurant where I can eat fear free. However after speaking to the staff here at Meat & Cheese, I would like to let others now how Celiac safe this establishment really is. Nothing goes into the fryer here that is not gluten free. Today I had fried chicken bites that ere absolutely delightful. I arrived at the restaurant too late to order the fried chicken sandwich hat comes on gluten free bread that is made in house. Bread that other reviewers have raves about in other reviews. The staff here at Meat & Cheese informed that the chef’s wife is celiac and the chef maintains a celiac safe kitchen just like he does at home. I hope while I’m here in Aspen on this trip I will get an opportunity to try the gluten free bread.; hopefully on a fried chicken sandwich. My mouth is watering just thinking about the fried chicken bites I had at lunch. I’m already looking forward to my next trip to Aspen to dine here once again.

My husband & I just had the best lunch at the Meat & Cheese restaurant. We ordered a cheese board for 2, mahi tacos, and the Italian sandwich on GF bread. Let me tell you, we both looked at each other and we’re SO impressed with the quality of the bread. We purchased a loaf to go. The staff was so friendly and knowledgeable. Her first response was “we are super gluten free friendly” and she was right about that. They take precautions to prevent cross contamination. Excellent little place with friendly staff and tasty food! Great prices for Aspen too.

While I’m not celiac my partner is and he says: “Excellent! Very knowledgeable staff who took great pride in their gluten free offerings. The toast tips were outstanding ( so good we bought an extra loaf to take on our travels).” Steak board was absolutely delicious too!

The staff accommodated our GF request with a meat and cheese platter that substituted GF crackers. About 50% of their menu can be made GF.
