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.

We frequented this place so much that we made 3 stops during our vacation! What a gem of a place to…read morehave in the city of Custer! Many times they were busy and they handled the rush so well... we were quite impressed! I enjoy stopping at various coffee shops to try them out and this one has been memorable for me. The flavoring is always on par + so smooth. Their customer service is great and timely. The look of their shop and option of drive-thru a plus! I feel like you can't go wrong with this place + they really are a standout coffee shop. I even purchased a tumbler from them to remember our times out in Custer with. Drinks ordered were an Irish cream latte, huckleberry latte, + English toffee latte. I'd recommend them all! There wasn't one that was a miss... all were great with flavor + not syrupy tasting/ smooth. Although I do have to recommend sipping on a huckleberry latte while hiking around lake sylvan! (; I also ordered an outlaw breakfast sandwich was to die for! So flavorful + tasty! Thanks so much, Miner's Cup!

The staff are absolutely lovely - so friendly and personable, and truly seem happy to help and serve! The decor is adorable and so unique - cozy fireplaces, outdoor patio seating, big beautiful windows to let natural light in. The food was amazing. The breakfast banana split, the breakfast sandwiches, yogurt bowls and the strawberry croissant were all so delicious! And the coffee was on point - beautifully crafted and delicious. They even offer free strawberry infused water and free apples, not to mention the giant chess game you can play inside. All around a 10/10! We will most certainly be back!

We were pleasantly greeted at the kiosk. You order food as there is no table service here. Food is somewhat limited, but service was fast. The restaurant was rather cold inside and many people were sitting fully cloaked and hooded/hats on to stay warm as the front door was wide open. We asked the manager if it was possible to close the door as the temperature inside was so cold and reading the room you could see we were not the only ones that felt this way! Without explanation, we were told no and that's how it had to be. We noticed on the way out that the thermostat was set at 54°! Brrrrr So, we did not stay very long. We ate our less than adequate food with plastic cutlery and left. Probably not a spot I would go out of my way again to visit and would check out other opportunities in the area.

There is only one bathroom which is all-gender. I was not the only visibly queer person there the day I went. Accessibility: all one level, small lip at doorway to enter, wide space to navigate between tables

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!

Coming from Wisconsin where we pride ourselves to having the best ice cream/custard, when a place…read moresays home made ice cream they better make it real good. This place outsources their ice cream. I think it's by kemps, but the ice cream we got looked and tasted old. Like it's been sitting there for a few weeks. I say this cause you can tell it's more ice, than cream. It has a weird sweetness to it. It doesn't taste like real dairy or at all fresh made like they advertised. The pie was ok. The crust was fine, but the filling seemed like store bought pudding with some coconut mixed into it. Not enough coconut. Not something I would come back for. Over all they say everything is home made. They're not.

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.
