Sundance Lunching

There are many different types of Sundancers. There are those who come to Park City to cruise Main Street, go to a show or two, and hopefully see some celebrities (aka, me in high school). There are those who live and work in Park City who hope to get to see a movie in between shifts, get into a show, and survive the festival while trying to enjoy it at the same time. Then there are those who come to town with a true passion for viewing the films. Whether it be for viewing pleasure or work, most of the time these specific visitors have schedules that are packed with back-to-back movies throughout the day, sometimes starting as early as 9-10 a.m. With the locations of the theaters being somewhat spread out, it can be daunting for a film viewer to know where to get a good lunch that is close. Here is our list of lunch spots located by each theater to make it easier for those of you who are out and about.
