Dining & Nightlife

Like many things in Sun Valley, culinary endeavors are more a way of life than a mere activity.

Coffee and pastry shops to jump-start your morning or power up your afternoon. Sushi that rivals Tokyo's finest. Healthy or hearty portions. Heart-conscious or vacation-worthy decadence. Whether you're looking for a post-workout lunch, pre-theater dinner, or wee-hour nightcap, Sun Valley and Ketchum's more than 50 restaurants and spirited nightlife locales are sure to please.

From the Sun Valley Harvest Festival, to local products, to our beloved and internationally recognized restaurants, to taking a stroll through the Wood River Farmers' Market, to local brews and vineyards -- we can satisfy your palate while enriching your experience here on the banks of the Big Wood River. Don't forget to consider purchasing local products as gifts.
