5-stars for the fact that this place exists to serve food in the center of Yellowstone National Park, and has friendly service. The food is basic. But, let’s be honest, you don’t come here for a gourmet meal. You come because you want to stay in the Park enjoying the views and the experience. We enjoyed our burger and chicken sandwich. But they won’t be the best you’ve ever had, and I would never expect them too. Keep an eye on the hours as they can change depending on the season.
Best place to eat at Canyon Village. Food comes quickly and is good and hot. Mostly burgers and various appetizers, but good.
we really enjoyed this spot, the vibe is super cool and the service is fast and friendly. their limited menu is delicious and we loved that they give you sodas in to go cups and are generous with the refills. we all got either the cheeseburger or hamburger combo and were all pleased with it. a little overpriced but thats how it goes in YNP.
Food was good, better than the food in the old faithful area. It was crowded and the seating area had small spaces but then our server was great. We had a black bean burger and a bison burger. The food was good and the price was reasonable.
Many Basic breakfast options. About 10-15/ plate. Also ate dinner here twice. Drove up from lake Yellowstone area where they only had the formal dining room open. Tons of seating. Don't sleep on the m66 bar area which we missed. Great dining option for middle area of the park.
Signature dish : bison burger ! It completed our Yellowstone trip :) The friendly staff shared his wolf survival hiking story , kept a huge hook in our heart for revisiting .
Got hungry while exploring the park and stopped by via stranger suggestion. Jaime greeted us and got us seated very quickly. The food was better than I expected and hit the spot! I got the bison/elk burger with fries and enjoyed it. Our server, Doranny was very pleasant. Expect to spend minimum 15 for a burger and drink.
Delicious! Food was amazing. Had to wait about 10 mins for a party of 5 at 12pm. Highly recommend the bison burger and the grilled cheese. Probably one of my top 3 grilled cheeses in the world!! We also enjoyed the pulled pork. Service was incredibly fast! Small dining area, but cute little 50s diner feel. Would DEFINITELY come back
