This was my first time seeing this spot not sure if its new but I am so glad I found it. The…read morelocation is half way from the top of the main lift. There's lots of seating inside and outside and it did look like they are adding more to the area. I don't blame them because it is already a popular spot. They have bathrooms which for me they smelt so bad, there's a reason they tell you to close the seat covers to the toilets. Inside the main area you can order anything from beer, hard alcohol, water, food and snacks. The food was mainly burritos are wraps so nothing too crazy to fill someone up where they can't ride back down lol. The vibe here was amazing the music was all reggae so nothing but relaxing good vibes. The view above was something to experience seeing the lake from so high up while sipping beer what more can a snowboarder ask for. This is definitely a spot to stop by and just take in the views while relaxing a bit.

There's a "permanent food truck" out back providing grilled brats, dogs, chili, and a soup of the day as well as grab & go snacks, beers and airplane bottles of booze so you can do your Red Bull (or Powerade) & Vodka (https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/big-blue-view-bar-homewood-2?select=doaj7fLiSWdo0nNxdXgSNA). They do have a cocktail menu, if you want a fancier blend. Beer is all canned and ranges from PBR ($5) and Coors/Bud Light ($7) to $8 "craft beer" options of Guinness and a few Sierra Nevada and Pizza Port selections like Chronic Amber (https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/big-blue-view-bar-homewood-2?select=TRdTCvL0wVmVKabRaak39w) and Swami's IPA (https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/big-blue-view-bar-homewood-2?select=BoLkn5CWvCAcBmJotXie3A) The brats and dogs come on an untoasted bun with a generous pile of kettle chips (https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/big-blue-view-bar-homewood-2?select=FamVkpiQcRGD5u_72LoTiQ). Nothing fancy, but it hit the spot (https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/big-blue-view-bar-homewood-2?select=2Gw4HGbCHtTTmf5JWLQiew) and basically the only game in town for hot food, unless you want to go to the lodge. 3 stars for the food +1 star for the view (https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/kTs8yBvCoWBmCIwlSrDjqA?select=1mUTZfSUBie9asPpOkGDxA)

That actually doesn't sound like a bad idea the next time we come here...West Shore Cafe was pretty good. There were 5 of us so we all ordered a ton of food(see pics). Service was on point and food for the most part was good but there was one item lacking and that was the Truffle Fries. Normally one thing wouldn't bother us so much but a lot of of us are potato connoisseur and especially love Truffle. So the fact that the flavor was absent in the fries was a little of a let down. Easy fix though. I would just add more Truffle Oil or whatever Truffle ingredient you add to the fries. Aside from that, all of us had a really good time and definitely would come back.

The place is gorgeous right next to the lake, you can't get views that close just anywhere! The staff was friendly and attentive, the food was good, but nothing really gave it that wow factor enough to justify their high prices. There's plenty of parking with their own private lot, but my only other complaint is they don't have a lot of food options to choose from. They explained that it's because of the pandemic, but hopefully they figure things out soon so they can expand their menu a little bit more.

Shadyside is a better value than some of its local counterparts, but you give up thier excellent views of the lake.
