We randomly came across Miner's Cup while driving along Mt. Rushmore Road, and it ended up being…read moreone of those places we're really glad we stopped at. It's a tiny setup with only a few parking spots and a drive-through, but they make great use of the space. The menu is surprisingly extensive for such a small spot -- specialty coffee drinks, Lotus energy drinks, breakfast sandwiches, wraps, and plenty of quick meal options. We tried the cappuccino, caramel macchiato, and the Gold Digger sandwich with chicken, avocado, roasted tomatoes, and provolone on ciabatta. Everything tasted fresh and satisfying. What I liked most is that they don't try too hard to be trendy or overcomplicated -- it's simply well-made coffee and solid grab-and-go food. Service was great. Perfect stop if you're passing through and want something quick that still feels quality. Would absolutely come back again.

Highly recommended if you're looking for quality food, warm service, and a nostalgic atmosphere. Support local businesses like this, you won't be disappointed!

Service was great this year but I was disappointed with the food. I ordered a chicken Caesar salad ($13 salad + $6 for the chicken) and it was less than what I could've made at home. To charge $13 for the quality of the Caesar salad felt audacious. In the past, I remember enjoying my non-salad meal but still feel mixed about this spot.

Fresh oysters for breakfast...in South Dakota? Yes, please!…read more My wife and I stumbled upon this gem on a recent trip through the Black Hills. A note about the restaurant from their website: Erik and Camillia opened Hjem A.M. in 2022 with one goal in mind: bring amazing breakfast food to the Black Hills. The food's focus is seasonality and is inspired by Scandinavian/American flavors. "Hjem" means home in Danish. Camillia and Erik found their home in Custer and want to be your home in the morning. Everything was divine. We wanted to sample the menu so we ordered "The Bob" (pancakes with lemon cream and lingonberry), Lobster eggs Benedict which they were out of unfortunately so the gave us some oysters as an apology. Their quiche of the day was a Mexican inspired elote style with a flaky crust and delightful crema, topped with some pickled onions. Their hollandaise was likely the best I've ever had. The accompanying potatoes and hash browns were perfectly cooked and seasoned. Ashly ordered a sausage patty that included a few chili flakes to wake up the tastebuds. I'd mentioned Ashly's birthday and they brought out a birthday treat - rice pudding topped with dried apricots and granola. And a candle on the side. We certainly felt at home at this lovely place. It had a charming decor and the service was top notch. Be sure to stop by on your next trip to the Black Hills.

Frequently coming back to other tables to check if anything was needed, striking up conversation, mentioning the specials of the day (which i would've gotten if i had been offered them and hadn't heard after already ordering). We got none of that. As for the food, it's okay. Nothing to write home about for $50 dollars between a drink, an appetizer, and two mid size entrees. I'm assuming the issue is that my partner and I are both in our mid 20s and have the stereotype of not tipping, which is understandable. This dining experience we definitely did hold up the stereotype based on the complete lack of decent service. If you're anywhere below mid 30s, I'd take your money elsewhere. There's a Pizza Hut a block away that's tasty, friendly, and 1/5 of the price.

Fortunately it moved fairly quickly. Service was efficient and friendly. The decor is pleasant, kind of a purple Victorian farm house feel. I got a slice of the apple pie and the peanut butter pie to go. The apple pie was awesome! Redolent of cinnamon, the filling was fully cooked, full of soft apple-y goodness. The crust was flaky and sweet and might have have sugar and cinnamon baked in the top crust. Delicious! The peanut butter pie was also great. A soft, light peanut butter filling in a flaky crust. Yummy! The apple pie was the star of the show for me this visit. I can't speak to their ice cream or other offerings. But it looks like they offer lots of savory items as well as coffee drinks. The pie here is truly delicious! My friend did not steer me wrong!
