A view of the facade of Soupçon restaurant in Crested Butte on May 23, 2026. Soupçon in Crested Butte seems to defy the laws of restaurant economics. With just nine tables, barely 30 seats, and only two seatings per night, the French-inspired restaurant has remained a destination for half a century. It reopened Friday for the season. Housed in a former miner’s cabin, the kitchen is tight, the dining room is cozy, and the wine cellar is actually in the attic.
