Slopeside at Park City Mountain Resort, this place offers a wonderfully convenient location. Try the Southwestern burrito with eggs, pepper jack cheese, chorizo, and avocado for a spicy and filling start to the day.

Squatters

Perfect for those driving into Park City for the day in need of a big breakfast before hitting the slopes. Squatters’ huevos rancheros are a hit for locals and out-of-towners, loaded with black beans, jack cheese, and smothered in pork chili Colorado.
