Feast Like a Local: What to Order for the Family
Steep is famous for serving up hearty, hand-crafted comfort food that hit the spot after a full day in the cold. When you’re ordering for a hungry family, here are the absolute must-haves:
Signature Flatbread Pizzas: These are the crowd-pleasers. From the classic Three-Cheese and Pepperoni for the kids to creative specialty options loaded with premium toppings for the adults, Steep's flatbreads are baked to perfection and easy to share.
The Giant Soft Pretzel: You cannot do aprés-ski without a giant, warm, salted pretzel served with house-made beer cheese. It is the perfect shareable appetizer to keep everyone happy while you unbox the rest of the meal.
Hearty Sandwiches & Paninis: Need something seriously filling? Try the Hot Italian, Turkey Pesto, or the Spicy Caprese panini. Packed with flavor and served warm, they are the definition of mountain comfort food.
Kid-Friendly Classics: If you have pickier eaters in the group, the menu features simple, delicious options that kids love, including classic grilled cheese and easy shareables.
Don’t Forget the Craft Brews (and Beverages) for the Adults!
One of the biggest perks of choosing Steep Brewing & Coffee Co. for your takeout is their exceptional, locally brewed craft beer. While grabbing your food, the adults can add a 4-pack or a growler of Steep’s own locally brewed beers to the order. From hop-forward IPAs to rich, dark stouts and easy-drinking lagers, it is the perfect way to bring the Keystone brewery experience right to your living room. They also offer a fantastic selection of warm drinks, specialty coffees, and canned beverages to complete the meal.
