Gold Hill Inn is worth the scenic drive for special occasion dining, listening to music and to just get out of town for a step back in time. Make reservations! We ordered the 3 course meal, though we were tempted to go with the 6 course. It was a lot of food and everyone left full. Bonus - if you have food allergies, make sure to tell the server and they’ll accommodate and/or recommend dishes for you.
We really enjoyed our visit to this rustic, one of a kind restaurant with family. It was a bit like visiting a friend's house, with very nice younger relatives carrying the plates. My 3 course meal was a tiny half avocado appetizer, standout stuffed trout and a chocolate torte dessert. It was just great as was my glass of pinot grigio. Everyone else loved their choices too.
A must visit! The most incredible food and service and extremely affordable. Very romantic too!
The food is killer and the staff is wonderful. A+
On Thanksgiving day l was part of a group at the restaurant. 2 people in the group were gluten and dairy free. Our server went above and beyond to make sure we were protected from gluten and dairy. The kitchen even made grape soup (which was very good) for us !! They had gluten- free stuffing!!Talked with Chris, who is the Chef, about the buffet entrees. All items, except the stuffing, were gluten-free. Such a great experience in spite of our food restrictions!!
The best restaurant I've been to in a while. I love the ambience, the greeting when you walk in, the menu presentation, the wait staff, the food. I could go on and on. I will be bringing my friends and family here.

We love the Gold Hill Inn! We are locals and have visited many times, for live music and for the food. The atmosphere can't be beat. It's the real thing -- wooden floor, ceiling beams, decor, and roaring fire -- but not stale, dusty, or smoky-smelling like some historic buildings can be. And we have really enjoyed the excellent lively bluegrass bands that play here.During the pandemic, our favorite ways to enjoy the Inn have been hanging out in the beer garden for live music and their delicious food, and ordering food to go. While their usual service is available, with 3- and 6-course meals in the indoor dining room and a la carte food in the bar area, we are more comfortable keeping our masks on while waiting for the food either in the less crowded bar area or outside, and taking it home. It's worth the wait. The highlight of the food at the Inn is the amazing selection of vegetables! They regularly serve three different vegetable dishes (and you get some of each!) Usually one is a really special pickled purple cabbage, one is mashed sweet potatoes, and one is a seasonal green vegetable. All are always delicious. They also regularly have one of the best gluten-free breads I've tried anywhere, with fresh homemade strawberry preserves. Their meat options are just ok. The best in our opinion are the bacon-wrapped beef tenderloin and the fish (lightly smoked trout with celery butter is a regular option, and the salmon is also nice, and available seasonally). We wouldn't recommend the lamb or the chicken, which tend to be bland to our taste, but they are not bad either. Finally, kudos to the Inn for using paper take-out containers! The take-out is lovely, but we can't wait to be back in person, especially for our wedding next summer...
ABSOLUTELY A favorite and we don't go often enough. A special thanks to the owner and all the staff for your friendly, and attentive hospitality!
Killer food outdoor at the beer garden. One of the few places worth the money in the mountains.
