We tried the other restaurants in the Old Faithful area, but they had long lines and felt very chaotic. Thsi place was busy but we did not have to wait. The food was diner style burgers fries and that kind of thing. Food was very good and the service was great. The non-Xanterra establishments have better quality and much better... More

This is a much better place to eat that the Geyser Grill in Snow Lodge. They wait on you at the table, and the hamburger and chicken burger we had were juicy and tasty. We had lunch there and it wasn't that busy, so no trouble getting a table.

This was our second visit to Yellowstone and both times we have stayed in the lodge cabins. The store has a nice diner style cafeteria with excellent service. We have found the breakfast excellent and well priced even with the remote location. Supper is also good and a vast improvement over the lodge cafeteria. The chilli is very good. The... More

Breakfast choices are limited in the Old Faithful area but this looked like the best value and was definitel;y better than any of the 'cafeteria' type breakfasts we had elsewhere in the park. Interesting building and friendly service.

After many hours of geyser-gazing, and many more to come, we needed to re-fuel ourselves so we stopped by for a late lunch from the grill in the Lower Hamilton Store. We sat at the counter on the tall stools and our friendly server took our order. We watched the young man make my husband's cheeseburger and my veggie burger... More

We really enjoyed our breakfast here! Service was fast and food was yummy. Pancakes were much better than others we had in the park. The servers were all nice, and three of them came over to answer some of our questions about the best places to go in the park. Highly recommended.

We had one dinner and one breakfast here. Basic food was inexpensive and good. Burgers and shakes for dinner were tasty and eggs and pancakes for breakfast were promptly served. Eating here gave us more time to explore the park.

We had dinner here with a family of 4 and enjoyed it very much.The thing that makes this place special is the exceptionally friendly way you are treated by the staff! Outstanding! The food was nothing special, but still tasty! But if you see how hard our waitress (unfortunately forgot her name) was working and how friendly she was, I... More

We were here in late June and I forgot to review this store. Our first afternoon, after checking into the Old Faithful Hotel, we stopped here for some ice cream. Nothing special but costly. The next day, we purchased ice cream at the snack shop opposite the gift shop in the Old Faithful Hotel. Superior in every way and actually... More

Now run by Delaware North, but this counter is one of our favorites. We eat at off times when possible, and enjoy a later - til 10:30 I believe- breakfast. One glitch with toast- taken care of immediately. Otherwise, we were very happy with our meals here. Didn't make it in for dinner this trip- but in the past were... More
