Shooting Star Saloon

Star ale is very good. Friendly service. Great place for apres ski, but maybe don’t use the term «apres ski» here.

If you don’t get a Starburger, you are wrong.

This place is a must visit for all over the age of 21 with cash in your pocket. Julie, Debbie, and Amy make you feel like a regular. Burgers are great just follow the rules! Great jukebox and pool table for lots of fun. Beer is cold and burgers are made with LOVE!

CASH ONLY dive bar. Burgers and Beers. That’s all you can get here, but they definitely do it right. They have a Star Ale that is an Amber Ale that Wasatch brews for them and it’s delicious! They’re on the waiting list for a full liquor license, so maybe down the road you’ll be able to get more than just beer; however, I’m sure the burgers and potato chips menu will stay the same.
My husband and I ordered the bacon cheeseburger and star burger and then split them in half. He preferred the bacon cheeseburger and I preferred the star burger, but both were great. The star burger has sausage in the middle of the two patties. The potato chips they serve are your traditional plain Lays but they’re fresh and good. This is a great stop if you’re 21+ and in the area.

A $ 5 AMAZINGLY delicious juicy burger and a $ 3 beer in this quaint cute little town. The shooting star amber ale is nutty and yummy.
Order at the bar, no fries just burgers and potato chips. Juke box, pool, stuffed animal heads on the walls and dollar bills on the ceiling. Check it out if you’re in town.

Sadly not great! Just not good food:(as remote as the location is and with best of state awards on the wall I had high expectations. Did not like the pinkish chicken and tasteless salad. Cute atmosphere, but if you are hungry eat almost anywhere else.

As I’ve mentioned in previous reviews of eateries and bars, I don’t drink. Okay, that’s not entirely true as I do drink beer — as long as it comes from a root. Here, they serve that root beer with pie! Oh, heaven. You could say that I had a: pie and beer” day. Cash only establishment.

The best burger in Utah in my opinion. Have the star burger and a pint of the shooting star Amber ale. Also be sure to bring cash as it is a cash only place.

One of the greatest bars I’ve ever been in! Leslie greets you the moment you come in and the hospitality never stops. Anyone that knows me knows how much I love bars with character and this place does not disappoint. From the classic decorations on the wall to the signed dollar bills on the ceiling and the working cash register built back before 1901, there is so much to see and enjoy.
I won’t even go into how great the burgers are. I had the Shooting Star burger with a pint of the Shooting Star Amber Ale. That combo alone made it worth the drive out here.
If you’re a bar or burger enthusiast, you have to put the Shooting Star on your bucket list!!!

Fun place to check out
Good food, very limited menu. But that’s part of the charm.
Cash only and only have beer for your adult beverage
Staff was friendly.
Make it a point to go if On the area

Dive Bar no doubt. Simple menu. Perceived attitude based on signs are blunt and rude, but he ladies were very kind.
Had the Star Burger. Probably one of the best burgers I have ever had. Glad I came. Not sure if I would return.

There are 2 reasons to come to The Shooting Star Saloon; burgers and beer. If you want something else they you may be disappointed. The Star burger is famous for a reason. It’s two patties, polish knackwurst cheese and sautéed opinions of pure heaven. I have a theory the really old griddles have a seasoning you can’t replicate without decades of cooking and the Shooting Star has this in spades.

I was told by the resort I’m staying at that this place is a must see because of its historical value (oldest saloon in Utah). I walk through the door and said hello and wasn’t greeted back. (Maybe I’m not a local that’s why.) Overall the burger was big and ok.

I’m slightly disappointed by this establishment! We’ve been coming here for the last 4 years every ski trip and love it. However, since changing over w new owners they are quite rude. We went into the bar at 730pm grabbed a beer, waiting for a big party to leave to shoot some pool. While we’re trying to shoot pool, the waitress/​worker/​cook informed us they close at 9pm, dropped my pool table stick and walks away??? Oddly, there was still more than 10 ppl in the bar… and they were ordering burgers/​beers. I find it ironic that she didn’t inform these people that we’re ordering beers/​burgers at 8:45 that they close in 15 minutes.
I guess that’s what’s happens when you decide to give your establishment to a new owner comes new changes and unpleasant welcoming’s!
We will not be returning customers.

Ski, beer, and burgers. It doesn, t get any better than that.
If you are looking for fluff and creature comforts you are at the wrong place. A true local dive bar that features beer, burgers, and lots of down to earth locals. The star burger ROCKS and the atmosphere is unforgettable. Stop in and experience it at leat once. It will grow on you.

If this were actually a bar I might frequent the place as I can walk from house but I don’t.
Why?
1. Its not a bar. They serve near beer. no real beer, no wine, no spirits.
2. lack luster service. The grumpy old guy well was grumpy and a downer. The other staff are more friendly.
3. As many others have said. What you see if what you get. don’t ask for anything special.
sometimes my guests want to visit for historical reasons but no one ever wants to go back.

The epitome of a dive bar with LOTS of character. Cash only bar that serves beer and burgers. Don’t ask for anything else or to customize your order, because what you see on the menu is quite literally what you get. We asked for ketchup and the bartender gave us this crazy look and told us to get it from the kitchen.
Décor is delightfully wacky and tacky. Stuffed St Bernard head, stuffed rear-​wolf, old school jukebox, hundreds of bills tacked to the ceiling, and other miscellaneous stuff all over the walls including pictures, articles, pin collections, toilet seats, etc.
Definitely check out the oldest bar in Utah and the only bar in the valley! I’ve only been here at odd times so it’s usually pretty empty, but I hear it can get pretty busy on weekend nights.

Cheap beers, great décor, and one of the oldest bars in Utah. Started in the 1800’s. If your around Huntsville it is worth the history lesson to step in for a cheap beer and burger. Bummed they did not have liquor but I appreciate the simplicity of this old time bar. Wish Utah had more like it. P. s. Its the only bar in the valley.

The Shooting Star is rustic dive bar (a good thing) with good burgers and limited service. There is no wait staff so you decide what you want and go to the bar and order but this is spelled out at each table so it should not be a surprise. Why do you come here, the dive bar atmosphere, the old timey music on the juke box and the BURGERS.
The burgers are very straight forward and tasty. As mentioned the Star Burger comes with beef patties and a somewhat spicy knockwurst, not something you find everyday.

I love the shooting star. my father in law and I make a point each holiday to go up, have a couple of beers and enjoy the history.
All bars have personality. Some are good, some are bad. if you’re looking for a homogenized, hoity toity bar that serves mixed spritzers and a jukebox that plays lady gaga, this aint your place. You should know before you go.
Here’s what it is:
Its the oldest bar in Utah. hell, the barmaid claims that if you count continuously running, its the oldest bar in the west. I like the story, so I choose to believe it. Consider that its a tiny mormon town where a Mormon Prophet was born, and that it ran through prohibition… Its got the original bar… thats part of the charm of the 1879 founded Shooting star.
Walk inside and there is a stuffed st bernard, the world record holder for size at the time. There’s other stuffed irreverent things in there as well. To me, a non mormon in mormon utah, the place has style.
Add in that they serve guinness (a personal plus for me), and the Shooting star burger is awesome. Nope, not whole grain bun with hand picked lettuce and organic beef. Its just a damn good bar burger. With bratwurst on it.
For a local bar Ive found the waitresses to be what they should be: Be friendly, and they’ll fire friendliness right back at ya and even tell you some stories.
yeah, I love the shooting star. For bars, all things considered its a 5 star place for me.
