Food in Salida?
 

Staying in Salida to shred Monarch for 3 days at the end of the month (pls Lord let it snow...!!)

Amicas looks like a good spot to get a beer and pizza, but specifically looking for some good breakfast. Help? Otherwise I'll bring kit.

Oh there are a few places in Salida. I don't remember names, but you shouldn't have a problem. There is a decent Mexican food place on the east side of 50. Downtown Salida has a couple of nice sit down places. There is always McDonald's if you are desperate. Amica's is solid. The Monarch lodge has a decent breakfast from what I remember. You might just drive up and grab a bite there. Then it's a hop, skip, jump to the ski area.

Great little area down there actually.

thx man, I posted the same question on 14ers.com and got a ton of replies :thumbsup:

Pancake Patio looks pretty key for breakfast.

So I think the girlfriend and I may be heading down to Monarch for a few days in March, I was wondering if you guys had any suggestions on where to stay down there?

Thanks for any input.

there are several hotel/motels to choose from in salida, about 14 miles away. we are staying at the gateway inn for like $65/night, heading down tomorow.
