Chimney Rock: bittersweet cocoa, full body. Blueberry scone pairs perfectly.

Prime Rib arrives hot and thick, the horseradish cutting through the smoke with a sharp snap. Pulled Pork is juicy and smoke-brined, tender enough to pull apart with a fork. Ribs offer a crackling bark and meat that slips clean from the bone. The room feels like a rustic cabin with a bar buzzing, perfect for a post-hike feast.
Skip the burger; get Prime Rib. For beer, order a local tap.
