Dave's Deli - Olympic Valley

It's a unique dining experience, though it is a bit on the pricey side.

I've been coming here for 20 years, and my dad has been a regular for 40 years. This is my favorite spot to grab lunch during a ski day. You have to try the Fat Kid sandwich, which comes piled high with a whole avocado—just ask, and they'll customize it with turkey or ham if you prefer. Dave's Deli is an independently owned gem in Squaw Valley and has become a local icon. They prepare sandwiches fresh throughout the day, and they're always delicious, offering a genuine homemade feel. In addition to sandwiches, they have pastries, fruit, hot chocolate, Gatorade, iced tea, and more. If you're seeking a break from the typical mass-produced cafeteria food at ski lodges, this is the place to go.
