KC97 Restaurant Colorado Springs (The Airplane restaurant)

[bvs]

MarkS's B47 pic reminded me about a really nice restaurant we visited at Colorado Springs in 2018.
We drove down from the hills after a ride on the Cripple Creek and Victor narrow gauge steam railroad (lovely little place).
The Restaurant is a really impressive Homage to Aviation/Aircraft/Flyers and the food was delish



You could choose to eat up in the Fuselage,but we just had a quick visit upstairs and ate in the main restaurant which was chock full of aviation memorabilia.



















The Table Top was an Aviation Chart

The food looked as good as the K.C.!! Used to do Denny's 'Death by Chocolate'.

That looks impressive and worth visiting sometime. Up at Bruntingthorpe, I understand that the Guppy has a very uncertain future, maybe someone with deep pockets and a bit of imagination and once Covid has more or less gone, could step forward.

On a similar note, The Aviator at Staverton airport in between Gloucester and Cheltenham is pretty good

I've got a hunch it might be too late for the old Guppy?

Many thanks for the kind comments Gents.
Yes the food was brill - we were getting towards the end of 2 weeks of 'holiday' eating hence sharing the cheesecake rather than a slice each
Our main course was Fish'n'chips for the Boss and Chile con Carne in a giant taco for moi

I could happily live on Chili con Carne. Senior Management hates it!!!.
