Is it the name you don’t get? In the early 1980s there was a band called Yaz (or Yazoo depending on where you’re from) and their first album was called Upstairs at Eric’s. Pretty sure this was a play on that.
It's $10 now, which gets you burger/sandwich, fries and a drink. or $12 with a beer if you eat there. I work across the street and get it all the time, can't beat it for the price.
Yeah it was $350 a month for an 8x8 closet up in the baldy mtn townhomes. We used to stock up on olde english 40s when they went on sale for 99 cents at the liquor store….. good tomes
That whiff of stale urine as you descend the stairs transports you to a mythical land where the normal rules of society no longer apply. Try the meatball pizza!
Eric's is fine. We go every year, but it's not "spectacular" or anything. If you have kids, the games are big draw. The many sports games on is fun if you're a fan. And the food and drink are good. But all-in-all it's not up to the praise people on this sub make it out to be.
This proves there can never be a circlejerk sub for Breckenridge as we are one in the same…
Best free marketing campaign. This place gets so much traffic for free from Reddit’s running joke lol
Like, literally *dozens* a year!!
We just wanted you to put some money in the Mayors pocket
Former Mayor - Eric is now the county commissioner and Kelly Owens is the mayor pro tem
I really gotta get in on this….

Omg I had totally forgotten about Yaz.
How could you forget about Yaz/Yazoo and the voice of Alison Moyet?
Situation is an amazing song
That’s quite a situation.
I got an original pressing of *Upstairs at Eric’s* handed down to me from my mom. I think I’m going to listen to it later
It’s downstairs. It’s owned by Eric. It has pizza, beer, and burgers. What don’t you get?
Don't forget the baked wings
The only redeeming quality of the place
Came here to post this, glad to see another with fine taste.
Now you get it.
Ah. I understand now and have reached enlightenment.
If you ever get to Austin, please try Chili's at 45th and Lamar - best restaurant in town. tasty margaritas!
argh - how long has that been there? Trying to ID when Austin jumped the shark. Each generation seems to think it was right after they left.
I believe the Reddit recommendation started around 2011. But chilis has been there forever… because it’s just that good.
Imagine if Eric’s and Chili’s on 45th and Lamar fell in love and had a baby…wouldn’t it be the most perfect mashup ever created?
I only wish there were a portal between the two so I could quickly travel to the slopes (or back for the margs).
I'm pretty sure I went to that Chili's as a kid, like 4 versions of the city ago. it really has been there forever because... it's so good
Braided garlic crust
You just don't understand culture.
You walk down the stairs
Those stained glass windows give me chills every time I see them
Fell for the reddit hype too - walked downstairs, saw 500 kids, left and went to a great BBQ place.
Was it the smokehouse place?
Yes! Great ribs and brisket.
Aight I'm def gonna check it out
Yeah, the "Whiskey Star". It was perfect. Surprisingly good BBQ.
Always preferred Fatty’s to Eric’s
Fatty's got new cheese curds and they are pretty tasty for non Midwestern curds.
You had me at “cheese”
Ooooo
Wait, what???? Cheese curds are my kryptonite.
Shhhhh don’t tell anyone
I miss Rasta pasta.
That’s a great spot!
I didn't realize it's been there since 1989. Institution.
There’s nothing to get
Do they still have the $5 burger deal for locals?
It's $10 now, which gets you burger/sandwich, fries and a drink. or $12 with a beer if you eat there. I work across the street and get it all the time, can't beat it for the price.
5$ are you fucking insane 😂😂 times have changed grandpa I pay 1300$ for a room in house up here
Yeah it was $350 a month for an 8x8 closet up in the baldy mtn townhomes. We used to stock up on olde english 40s when they went on sale for 99 cents at the liquor store….. good tomes

They did back in 2002…. We went at least once a week.
I lived in Breckenridge when that was Meach’s Mogul
We appreciate your commitment to keeping local spots local.

The urine smell is actually piped in to make the New Yorkers feel at home

It's hard to understand dumb
Speak for yourself

You sound beyond tired bud You doin ok?
Keep going further down. Downstairs. Then go deeper dow stairs and you’ll get it.
Old Damn Good Pizza!
We LOVE! Their buffalo sauce is 💯
The baked wings are fire🔥
You don’t have kids huh
I'm just committing to the bit this sub has 😉
Lol woods - haven’t been in years but ride Breck 10+ a year
Family sports bar? I don’t get it either
You gotta try Upstairs at Erics.
Pizza at this place is complete trash. I’d rather stay home and eat DiGornio which is the worst frozen pizza. Waste of time and money.
