While not a big town, Chugwater is big enough to have beautiful rock outcrops near I-25 as you exit, and also the the oldest soda fountain in Wyoming and the Stampede Saloon and its bison burgers. We enjoyed a lunch of: - cheeseburger and fries - mushroom Swiss with a salad - the mushroom sauce is house-made with ranch and butter Great food! When you visit the Stampede Saloon you'll also learn how/why the town received its name. Thank you, Stampede Saloon & Eatery! ----- ----- -----

This quaint, historic little gem is just full of charm. So down home friendly, with delicious food.

I had talked this chef up to them because of his own self description. The grilled cheese 'special' (2) were flat, dry, barely grilled panini on a plate with nothing else, a plate so unappetizing it was shocking, as if the chef nor his server/wife did not have eyes to see it. I would ask them to look at this plate objectively. If You went to a restaurant and were served this- would you come back or Ever invite guests to come and be served THAT? So dry, one of my guests was dipping it in the balsamic on the table, the other didn't eat the crust. My husband who is just a regular guy with basic expectations-could not believe it. This was his brothers birthday and the sandwiches were so sad and pathetic, and our guests , one a hard outdoor worker, made excuses that they weren't really that hungry anyway. My husbands sausage bolognese 'special' ($17) looked out of a cafeteria. A bowl of spaghetti with mixed in meat sauce. Dull. No parmesan, no parsley, nothing. Came with a slice of Dry Bread! No garlic butter, not toasted- just dry bread. My grinder was fine. Same as all the sandwiches, on a white plate with nothing. My lady friend did not comment on her club sandwich. No one ordered dessert. The fact that many people see these plates go out and have the utter gall to serve them and not feel any sense of shame, nor say anything to this allegedly 'Italian trained' chef owner is Beyond shocking. This was not European, not Italian, not modern, just lackluster no effort. I was embarrassed for me, my guests having to pretend it was fine, and for the restaurant itself. I did not take pictures because I didn't want to make a scandal of it.

What a great place! We stopped in for dinner on the way home from a road trip, so happy we did…read more The staff was awesome! We were on the tail end of a dinner rush and they handled it great. They were friendly and courteous and checked on us frequently. I ordered the wedge salad and pretzel bites with beer cheese. The salad was great. It was fresh and the perfect size. The bleu cheese dressing was creamy and so delicious. The pretzel bits were as expected, and the cheese had good flavor, but was warm not hot. It was a little chunky, but I still ate it all. LOL! The in-laws ordered the nachos. They are not your traditional nachos. You get a choice of meat, brisket or pulled pork. They chose brisket. And you get to choose between fries or pork rinds and they chose pork rinds. They liked them. I didn't try them. They also liked the duck wontons. Hubby had the pulled pork sandwich and fries. It was pretty good. I loved the fries. I think they were hand cut, but I could be wrong. We had a great dinner!

The atmosphere inside is pretty cool. I just wanted to try one of their beers and then resume onwards to the north so I didn't get anything to eat here. I got some of their Prohibition Blonde Ale which was good. Flavor features with this was an essence of peach, sweetness, juicy and fruity. The beer was light bodied, exactly what I was desiring and enjoyed. I was eager to take a canned beer home with me but alas their machinery that did this particular task was broken so hopefully that gets resolved for those who want to take beer home with them.

I'm not sure if our meals sat before they were served, but both enchilada plates had barely any sauce and everything seemed dry. The flautas were soggy/oily in the center and everything needed salt.
