“ Tuesday at Benderz is what's up! Liz made excellent recommendations and guided us along the way. The tequila discount and fajitas (with out the sizzle) were divine. 12/10 recommend. We'll see you next Tuesday! ”
“ This was a return trip for us to Benderz in Avon, as it is a good distance from Denver and a great stop on the way out/back from the mountains. A group of friends all ordered different burgers or sandwiches which were all delicious. We sat on the patio and service was so quick to bring us our food and refill our beverages. Since the weather was so nice there were lots of people seated outside but it is so tucked back in the corner that you felt like you’re in a secluded space. I got the patty melt and shared some large fries since the serving sizes are big. It is a great stop to energize for for an upcoming mountain trip. ”
“ Great stop, burgers were great. Several ways to have your fries. Truffle, Garlic, Parmesan. A perfect bar selection. Great for family or when you’re just coming down from the mountain. ”
“ My server was super nice and friendly. Made great recommendations. She suggested the burgers over the philly so I ordered a single with American and grilled onions with tots. Service was prompt and everything was super fresh and hot. Veg on the burger was peak of fresheners. You could tell the team in the kitchen cared about what was coming out. The burger to me tasted like a refined single from smash burger but the bun was perfectly soft and had great taste and texture. I wished I'd ordered the double! The tots were fresh from the fryer and crisp, not overcooked and most importantly not oversalted or some other house seasoning! They were also perfect. Food wise it was a great experience. For the atmosphere, I was fascinated by the size of the bar selection. Then they were playing reggae which I have no problem with, but it just felt off with the atmosphere. It wasn't unpleasant but it felt like someone was building out this big saloon style western theme with dark beautiful wood and clearly a culture palate for alcohol then said "let's jam some island tunes on the overheads nectar it reminds me of snorkeling in Jamaica man." It's incongruent. It wouldn't stop me from going back, but playing reggae music in a place like this just feels passe in my opinion. I don't know what I'd pick but it wouldn't be that. I'd probably pick classic rock with some country mixed in. Maybe the target demographic packs the place during the ski season? It's a cool place and I'd go back but be ready for some steel drums ”
“ Liz was so welcoming when we came in. The items she suggested on the menu were amazing. We will come back for incredible food and even better service. ”
“ My name is Nick Nell and I came out from Wisconsin to do some skiing. The food was excellent, but Liz was the real reason my buddy and I came out to the bar for 3 nights of our visit. She worked the bar with an aptitude of a surgeon when the bar was randomly extremely busy on 3/19. We were never forgotten and constantly asked if we needed anything. If your sole purpose is to visit this place for a drink, make sure Liz is working because she is spectacular! ”
“ We had really fast service. 5 minutes to get a chicken quesadilla to us and 10-12 minutes to get out burgers after ordering. The taste of the burgers are excellent just the way they come. The server was courteous and efficient. Give them a try. ”
“ The food is so good! We had burgers and the green chili mac and could not get enough. The truffle fries are also a solid choice. Very pleased with everything we tried. Portions are nice size and the atmosphere is great. ”
