This is the best breakfast I have had in Steamboat! But it’s very busy so either get there early or be prepared to wait especially during ski season but it’s worth it. It’s a very small place so keep that in mind if you have a large party.

We are big fans of local places to get coffee. We are still trying out places in Steamboat that we would recommend. But, sometimes duty calls and you just want to pop in for Starbucks. Here it is, in the City Market and right near the condo!

A little of this, a little of that. These are fun places to stop into and end up taking a little bit of Steamboat home with you. Primarily local places with friendly staff.
I love this store! I try to go every time I'm in SB, it has Steamboat & mountain-themed shirts/tanks/onesies/dish towels/art and more. It is a great place to buy souvenirs that don't look like souvenirs.

Maybe Annie's is not so secret but it is worth pointing out. One of the most eclectic consignment shops I have been too with great quality stuff and always something new. I try to go every time I am in town because you never know what you will find. I have purchased quite a few items for our condo there. A big plus is Annie is a gem to talk to and so welcoming!
