ALWAYS BE YOURSELF UNLESS YOU CAN
BE A VIKING, THEN
ALWAYS BE A VIKING

After 7 glorious years of that food truck life, The Buena Viking is making its way to a year-around, permanent, brick and mortar location! We’ve eddied out at 418 E. Main Street, Buena Vista, COLORADICAL, and we’re excited to have our very own home port. The Buena Viking aims to provide an elevated burger experience in a casual setting, perfect to compliment your Colorado adventure days. With the belief that every order matters, that every customer deserves an awesome experience, and a passion for excellence, we invite you to come see all The Buena Viking has to offer!

ABOUT US

Evan and Anna Winger opened The Buena Viking in 2017, in a used food truck bought off of Craigslist. Fast forward 8 years later, and we've built our final home on Main Street, Buena Vista. Pretty dreamy!  The Buena Viking aims to provide an elevated burger experience in a casual setting, perfect to compliment your Colorado adventure days. With the belief that every order matters, that every customer deserves an awesome experience, and a passion for excellence, we invite you to come see all The Buena Viking has to offer!
 

Owners Evan and Anna Winger made Buena Vista their home over 20 years ago. They both love their spot in this universe, their community, the Rocky Mountains, and the Arkansas River that provide peace and adventure when they’re not restauranter-ing!

 

Our new spot has a lot more room, and therefore a lot more room for options! We have mostly the same menu as the food truck, but with additions of more salads, vegetarian and gluten-free options, new and different melts and burgers, and soups for the winter season!

OUR CULTURE

Male Viking River Surfer

We believe in fueling our bodies to conquer (or at least have fun trying) all of the amazing things to do in and around our amazing town. At The Buena Viking, we have the most amazing team of managers, bartenders, servers, hosts, and cooks. We have fun together and believe in respect, accountability, and raising the bar on eating in Buena Vista.  Our full bar invites you to try some of the best signature cocktails out there, alongside an amazing draft system - with your local IPA and PBR.  Our local mug club changes every year, but there's a good chance there will be an awesome local sitting by you drinking out of a horned mug, regaling you with some sort of exaggerated story of their adventures.  
 
In our new building, you'll find a rooftop patio - available in the seasons without snow, and a lower patio that has fires going in the cold days.
 
The Buena Viking revolves around hard work and passion.
We hope to be a place you don't want to miss!

We threw a little lodge on top of our restaurant, aptly named The Even Keel Lodge. Check it out and stay with us on your next visit. We like to have the tagline: a short walk home, but with our drinks, it could be a short stumble home….
