Hotel recommended this place as where locals go. Even though the prices were a little high, they were more reasonable than almost all of the other options within walking distance. I got the Bison Burger in preparation for a game against the Colorado Buffalos. It was terrific. Fries were really good too. Service was fast and friendly. It is tiny inside and reminiscent of a tiny diner. THey server Ice Cream too and I got a cone after lunch and it was brilliant too. read more

Halleys West - Buffalo burger with hand cut fries - American Near Me - Keystone, South Dakota

Literally the nicest people in all Keystone. They have several local beers to choose from. Their also very knowledgeable about each one. The best part it's a family owned business. For the kids they have the best 1919 root beer on tap and also in cans. We didn't try the food because the kitchen was closed. However I will definitely stop here again! Great customer service & the place to feel so welcomed. read more

Our family stopped in for a late lunch after visiting Mount Rushmore and we had a delicious, fast lunch with the best service. All 3 kids ordered the cheeseburger meals with hand cut fries and the portion was more than enough and delicious. I had a bite of the burger and wanted another one, it was so good. We also ordered cheese curds and wings and they disappeared quickly. Everything came out hot and fast and the people working were so kind and friendly. They gave us root beer samples and it was yummy and the kids enjoyed it too. Would definitely stop by again if in the area. read more

We stopped here for a late lunch last week and had a great experience! The owner was just so friendly nice. Our one grandson had the Buffalo burger and just loved it! There were 6 of us and each got something different and we were all very pleased with our choices. The hand cut fries were amazing! The owner kept checking to see how everything was and if we needed anything. If in Keystone, be sure to head over to this place, you won't be sorry read more

Yummy food! Generous portions. Fast and very kind service. Even the chicken tenders were delicious I will be back!

Great service, great food, Buffalo was wonderful! We were able to sit outside and enjoy a sunny day while we ate!

Amazing service. Beer samplers to make sure you pick one you enjoy. Food was perfect for lunch, cheese curds and burgers and BLTs.

Good spot. 40 year family business, but this location is newer. All things cooked to order. Pizza and buffalo burgers were good. read more

Food was great and lived up to the expectations. The chicken sandwich was great ... I would recommend

Good place to eat. Not too expensive. Real personable owner and kids. Food was good especially bison burger and hand cut fries. read more

Good family friendly place were the food is reasonably priced. The food is good and great for the price. We got two appetizers, a beer and food/drinks for five for under $50! We are from Wisconsin and the cheese curds were very good. The rest of the wood was good to very good. There is a good selection of local beers including Porters and Stouts which I don't always find. They let us taste test which was a plus. The gifts in the store were also very reasonable. read more

We grabbed a bite to eat after visiting Mt Rushmore. Very friendly staff, but the wait to get food was long (at 1 pm) but it was very busy too. We ordered BLTs, Turkey sandwich and chicken fingers. All combos came with greasy cut fries and fountain drink. I upgraded my fountain drink for a 1918 draft root beer. The root beer was awesome. The food was good. It's hard to mess up a BLT, but this one was really good. The bacon was crispy and the bread was fresh and lightly toasted. The fries were good too. We enjoyed sitting outside with the nice Mountain View's. read more

Great COVID service! Recommend to anyone traveling through for food or a drink outside!

Pulled pork and fries very tasty. Family run. Very nice staff. Patio seating which worked for us with our dogs.

Good food, fast and friendly service and a great draft beer selection. Nothing fancy but neither am I.

We split the special of the day, grilled hamburger with mushrooms, onions and pepper jack cheese. After one bite my husband had wished we had not split. Very good hamburger. Their fries are fresh cut also very good. They have local craft beers on draft plus a very good root beer. Service was fantastic, very friendly. If we were not leaving tomorrow we would go back. read more

Fresh cut fries. All I really need to say if you're a French fry fan. There's McDonalds which are crack for your mouth......but fresh cut are even better!! read more

Stopped in for some delicious fries and to chat with the locals. A great little place with unparalleled service and kindness from the owner. A family owned business... they will take good care of you. read more

Kind staff and good food. Very popular place! Took some time to receive our food, but it was worth it.

Great burger and home cut fries but bring something to kill the flies. Flies keep it from being a 5 star.

Saw the reviews and menu on Yelp were excited to try it out. Found the correct location on a Sunday at 5pm, however the door was locked. Tried to call and the number went to voicemail. Walked around the other shops and went back to see if it opened. A worker walked out with food and another opened the door and said we're closed. No hours were posted and no explanation as to why they were closed on a peak evening. Even if the food was good, it appears the services is not. read more

Stopped in on our way from Nebraska to mt. Rushmore had a buffalo burger and some hamburgers with family. Really good food! Thanks so much! read more

Halleys West - American Near Me - Keystone, South Dakota

Stopped by here on my way out of town, and I'm glad I did. Appears to be a family business, great food and great service. My only complaint is the owner should probably hire more people. Poor gentleman that was working the counter was getting pulled in several directions. Great experience here, will definitely be back if I'm in the area. read more

A friendly little restaurant. This is at the end of a little strip mall. You are in a tourist town and so prices are inflated but this place was pretty reasonable. We got the pulled pork combo to go. The price was decent in comparison to the many other places in town. The sandwich was pretty good, a little light on the pulled pork side but the combo comes with some pickles and onions for the sandwich, fries and drink. I was able to get a Root Beer that was on tap. It was a good root beer, tasted very similar to an A&W. Fries were a good portion and well cooked. You can also get a scoop of ice cream to go with your meal or buy some other touristy things like t-shirts, mugs and postcards. A fair selection of beers on tap. If you don't want pizza, then I would pick this place over a place down the road. read more

we started our time here with the best service ever. the guy behind the counter helped us find the perfect local beer to compliment our food. he was funny, helpful, and so gracious. then...our food. oh my! the Buffalo burgers are phenomenal. the fresh cut fries were perfection. we'd highly recommend Halley's West to anyone staying in the Black Hills area. read more

First day in Keystone. Staying at the Roosevelt Inn (also highly recommended) Took a stroll across the street to see where we could get something local and yummy. Ran across Halleys and popped in because their sign said take food and beer available (really take-out beer?) Chatted with the owner who assured me yes indeed they have local beers available. I popped back over at dinner time and order the bison burger deluxe, WI cheese curds and a SD locally brewed cream ale to go. Owner not only remembered me from earlier, but was super friendly even though his tiny place was being slammed with familys bringing in their kids for the dinner hour. Burger, fries and curds were all that i would have hoped for, Could really see kicking back with some of their local brews when it's less busy (but is that ever during tourist season?) Highly recommend read more

Great place to have lunch near Mt Rushmore! My husband and I were directed to an antique shop by Yelp directions and the nice elderly gentleman there told us it's the other Halleys we're looking for, less than mile up the street. We were glad we persisted and made our way to the right place. Owner was super friendly and treated every customer like an old friend. It was a pleasure to experience such genuine hospitality which has become verybrare indeed. Onto the food, which was excellent! Classics done right. We had a 1/2 lb burger and a pulled pork sandwich. The patty was humongous and pulled pork was nicely smoked. Good selection of beers on tap we even bought a bottle of local wine. Hubs really enjoyed his cold mug of local craft beer. Just fabulous! Highly recommend stopping in for a bite at Halleys! read more

We found this place online because of the great reviews. We were expecting a sit down restaurant but it was more of a hamburger joint where you order at the register. We decided to stay because of the great reviews. There's only a few tables inside but later I realized there were several tables outside on their patio. The food was really good. I had the hamburger with sautéed onions and mushrooms and fries. My husband had pizza. The food was fresh and cooked to order. We watched them make the pizza. They have a 1919 root beer that I tried. Wow! The best root beer I've ever had. The guy that took our order was so kind and friendly. He even offered us a taste of several of the tap beers. All in all I'm so glad we stayed. I highly recommend. read more

Great food and great service. It is with walking distance from the Rushmore Express hotel. strongly recommended

Visiting from ND and almost passed this place up because it didn't look like the sit down restaurant we were looking for. So glad we decided to try it (the local beer sign helped the decision) because their bison burgers were so good and juicy, the cheddar curds were perfectly cooked and the local beer topped it off. Super friendly staff and a must try when visiting Keystone read more

What a little gem! Friendly, helpful service and fresh, delicious food! This stop is just what we needed after a long day driving before stopping at Mt Rushmore. read more

Didn't know where to eat and stopped in the place. It was packed but we got service and food fast. Delicious! I had the pulled pork burger and was shy to order what they said was their best, the buffalo burger. My husband got that and it was delicious too! read more

Stop here! We were passing through town on our family road trip from Michigan to Oregon and decided to eat dinner here. It was an excellent choice! Everything we ordered was very tasty! Especially the Pulled Pork Burger! read more

This is actually a review for the Original Halley's that is located in the old Keystone Trading Company building. We kind of stumbled on the place when we went into the general store across the street. This place is too cool. The food is made on a flattop outside. Definitely get the okayest burger and the cheese curds. The beers are cheap and the bartender was great. Grab a beer and walk around the place and check out all the old stuff. Bags outside as well. read more

Love this place. The guy working was super cool and let us sample some beers before we sat down. Would definitely go there again.

Delicious buffalo burger (my husband loved his beef) with jalapeños & grilled thick cut onions. Nice selection of local beers on tap! The customer service was wonderful! This place is owned by a local family & they are there making sure things are done well. My husband had the fries & they looked like the hand cut fries my mom made when I was a kid. Good stuff! read more
