Free Range Kitchen is the creation of owners Steve & Robin Humble who have been immersed in the Roaring Fork Valley's restaurant scene for 30 years.

We strive to create a menu that offers seasonal, innovative comfort food. We use responsibly farmed, freshly harvested ingredients without hormones or antibiotics, supporting the local Colorado farming and ranching communities. We use local ingredients, whenever possible.

Our goal is to create a BEAUTIFUL, FUN, WELCOMING restaurant & bar with WARM, FRIENDLY service, & a GREAT VIBE alongside the river, in Historic Downtown Basalt. With boutique global wine offerings, hand selected by Steve and a wide selection of regional craft beers and specialty cocktails using artisanal spirits and house-made infusions.

Our food was very tasty but our dip had a piece of paper cooked into it. When we showed the waitress she just took it and said she was going to show the chef but never said anything else about it or gave any type of discount for it. Just kinda a weird experience and don’t think we will go back.

great location and ambience but service was extremely slow, took 30 minuets for drinks and another hour for our food. All 4 of us had 'stomach problems' afterwards. Ive tried this now 3 times and with the same experience. as nice as it appears, its just not up to proper food and service standards, I wont go back.
