Theres plenty of seating inside, and its bright and open. Marvin was extremely friendly and provided excellent service for my family. He chatted with us about the area, his background,and food. My husband really enjoyed talking to him. Our food came out hot, and quick. The fries were seasoned very well. It reminded me of a ranch/dill flavor. My daughter loved her burger.

I had just finished lunch, so I wasn't in the mood to try a hot dog, but a flavored soda was right up my alley. There's a drive through and a walk-up window. I opted for the walk-up window so we could also check out this bus situation. The menu has a good assortment of drinks with silly names and a variety of flavor add-ins. My son got some bright green Mountain Dew drink and I chose a sparkling water with some fruit add ins. After our drinks were ready, we wanted to check out the bus. The bottom level appears to be used as overflow storage and then the upstairs area is where there are tables and chairs. It was hot and muggy with no ventilation, but it was a neat environment for a quick drink.

When you're charging around $5 for a single scoop, I think it's reasonable to let people try a few flavors so they can feel confident in their choice. There were several flavors I was interested in, and I probably would have ordered two scoops if I'd been able to sample more than one. The ice cream itself was delicious, but I think a more flexible sampling policy would make the experience much better. So yum but also a little disappointing.

This is a room that isn't advertised in 3rd party sites and has to be booked on the property website only - it's something like 50% cheaper than the rooms in the hotel. The room comes with unlimited tea, coffee, and hot chocolate from the General Store/Cafe. We were a bit confused with how it worked since other customers have to pay for drinks, but the clerk assured us we could go whenever to get drinks (which we did multiple times!) While we checked in too late in the day to eat at the deli and left too early in the morning for Chuckwagon's famous lunch boxes, we did hit it up in the morning for breakfast pastries, which according to the cashier are all baked in house (and why we were attracted to them in the first place). We were having trouble deciding between the Kouign Amann and the Chocolate Croissant, eventually deciding on the former, but the cashier tossed us the latter for free! What great service! Chocolate Croissant (Complementary, normally $6) - This is a gorgeous looking croissant, golden brown with a drizzle of sweet chocolate on top, still soft and gooey thanks to being fresh from the oven. It's baked hard, so croissant shards fly everywhere while eating. I'd say it's baked a tad too long, so while extremely flaky, the interior isn't quite as chewy as I'd like. The lamination does look quite good from what I can tell after having some difficulty slicing through with a plastic knife. As is traditional, two chocolate batons are baked inside. (5/5) Kouign Amann w/ Cream ($6) - Again, this pastry has a really hard bake, so almost the entire thing shatters easily, except for the stellar caramelized sugar layer covering the bottom. It's hardened, sticky, and sweet with a great crunch factor. The interior is actually correct for a Kouign Amann, which is really surprising for a small-town bakery. It's not laminated nearly as much as the croissant, and instead seems to be a nice enriched brioche interior, albeit not particularly airy and soft in texture due to the bake. There's a really tangy and somewhat sweet cream cheese frosting that's piped into the center. I'd actually prefer the pastry without this extra flourish, but beggars can't be choosers! (5/5) Both pastries are more of a 4.5/5 due to the bake, but the ingredients and technique (other than bake) seem to be well thought out. We were not expecting much from these baked goods given that the Chuckwagon Deli isn't exactly a specialty bakery, but in the end we were extremely surprised by the quality. I'll definitely be revisiting if I'm ever in town again.

Guests of the motel gets free coffee, tea, or hot chocolate from the general store which is open early til late, 10pm I believe. We ate at the deli for breakfast. I was looking forward to the quiche based on what I saw on the Yelp pictures but I guess the menu has changed. They only offer breakfast sandwiches now but it's made to order so we got to choose type of eggs and proteins. It did take a bit a time for them to make it so factor that in when planning your visit. The sandwiches were ~$12 each but were pretty filling so perfect for another day of hiking.
