Answer

For a post-wedding brunch in Lionshead Village, Vail, you’ll want a location that can comfortably accommodate 50–70 guests, offers a relaxed atmosphere, and keeps pricing reasonable. Lionshead has several restaurants and venues that work well for casual brunch gatherings, especially in June when the weather is pleasant and outdoor patios are an option.

Options to consider:

Westside Café & Market: A casual spot in Lionshead Village with flexible seating. They offer brunch menus with a mix of classic and local options. Their outdoor seating can accommodate larger groups if arranged in advance.
Blue Moose Pizza: While known for pizza, they also have brunch offerings and a laid-back vibe. Can handle larger groups and has experience with accommodating parties of 50+ if notified ahead.
La Tour Restaurant & Bar: More of a traditional brunch setting with an upstairs area that can be reserved for private or semi-private events. Slightly higher-end but still reasonable for a group brunch.

Additional considerations:

Contact the restaurant in advance to discuss group menus and potential private or semi-private space. Many places in Vail can create a buffet-style or family-style brunch menu to simplify service and cost.
Consider outdoor seating or patios; June weather in Vail is usually pleasant, and it allows for a more relaxed, scenic atmosphere.
Check for nearby event spaces in Lionshead Village or Vail Village if you prefer to cater from a local restaurant but rent space separately for a more private gathering.

Overall, plan early, confirm guest count, and discuss menu options with the venue. This ensures a smooth, enjoyable brunch without being overly formal or expensive, while keeping the Vail mountain ambiance.
