Introduction
Bullwinkels Pizzeria and Sports Cafe
If your perfect evening looks like pizza, cold drinks, and the game on a big screen, you fit right in at Bullwinkels. The restaurant sits inside Top of the Beech Inn, which means you get easy parking and a quick walk to a warm room. You find a classic sports vibe. Jerseys on the wall, friendly servers who know the schedule, and a bar that keeps pints moving when the score gets close. Bring a group or slide into a two top after last chair. Either way, you get fed and you get a seat that sees the action.
The kitchen leans into hearthstone baked pizza with hand tossed dough. You taste a crisp edge and a soft center that holds up to toppings. Specialty combinations cover the bases, and the staff will build what you want if you prefer a custom pie. The rest of the menu reads like the greatest hits of a mountain town sports cafe. Wings come hot and crunchy. Pasta plates land with enough weight to warm you up on a cold night. Subs and salads round it out for people who want something lighter. Portions match a long day outside, so split a pizza if you want room for a nightcap.
The screens keep the room alive. Multiple televisions hang around the bar and dining area, and a large main screen anchors big game nights. You can talk without shouting, which helps when you bring kids or meet up with friends. This is the spot to watch your team while you compare notes from the slopes. Service stays steady through rushes, and the staff will steer you toward house favorites if you ask. The bar carries regional beer along with familiar standards, plus simple mixed drinks and wine. You do not need to know every brewery in the state to order well. Tell the bartender what you like and they point you to a pint you will finish.
Plan a visit that fits your day. If you want a quick meal before a night session on snow, call ahead and ask about wait times, then grab a booth near a screen with your game. If you want a longer hang, aim for a table in the lounge and order a round for the group with a couple of pies for the center. The location makes it easy to meet up. If your friends stay nearby at the inn, they can walk over. If you drive, you find parking out front. You leave full, you got to cheer, and you head back to your place without a long drive.
