    Our server turned my Son's morning around - he made him a dragon pancake, and taught him how to use a payphone! And breakfast was great, but our server made our morning magical Excellent stop for breakfast!!!!

    Yelp won't allow you to post a video so instead, I took a screenshot!

    This family-friendly "mom & pop" restaurant is the BEST & CLOSEST RESTAURANT to Mt. Rushmore! And best of all, it's OPEN for dine in during these uncertain times! Our family loved it! It was my little sister's birthday and after enjoying a great breakfast, our waiter, Birds (I thought that's what his name was) came out to our table with his guitar and sang "Happy Birthday" to her wishing her a happy 9th birthday! If you're going here on vacation, it'll be a great change from the standard hotel breakfast. (Well, at least in our opinion) All in all, Great food Open for DINE IN & Sanitary (for Covid) Quick & Made to Order Close to Mt. Rushmore & Rapid City Friendly Staff Exceptional Breakfast ~ Oh yeah and SHOUT OUT TO OUR WAITER "Birds" (I hope I got the name right) ~

    So day 2 trying to find food.. yesterday sign on door closed for the day and today sign down and no one there

    Wow for big sign saying open 7 days a week breakfast lunch and dinner , today they are randomly closed . How do you expect tourist in this town to get a hot meal. Just because your season is ending doesn't mean tourists aren't hungry ..

    We went here twice while vacationing. The first time we had a male waiter who was phenomenal! The food was awesome and he made us feel very welcome. The second time we had an Asian female who brought my 15 year old boys baby drinks as well as myself. She was nice, but never around when we needed her. The food was still great!

    Cute country decor

    We stopped in to Peggy's Place after visiting Mount Rushmore in the pouring rain. We were cold and wet and it looked like a good spot to get some warm comfort food. First impressions were nice. Classic midwest diner decor (anyone reading my Yelp reviews will see that I have an affinity for midwest diners) and a bit of a crowd. Service was extremely friendly, but quite slow. We were apparently on the early side for lunch (11:40am) and were told the kitchen was still converting over from breakfast mode. After a little prompting, our waitress confirmed that they did have mashed potatoes and gravy (something that the entirely family wanted on this cold, wet day). That brings me to the food. I was quite disappointed. I had an open faced hot beef sandwich. The beef was tough and the gravy was clearly out of a can or jar. My wife ordered Chicken Fried Steak. After being informed they were out of this, she switched to a Chicken Fried Chicken, which was maybe 1/8" thick and tough. Though the coating was crunchy, it was pretty clear to us that this was institutional frozen fare that had been dropped in a fryer (which needed an oil change). The country gravy was thick as porridge and again seemed to be out of a can. Lack of seasoning across all our dishes reinforced that this was basically hospital food. Sorry, Peggy and crew. We really wanted to be enchanted by your diner. While our waitress was sweet and helpful, what came out of the kitchen left us wanting.

    Stopped in here with family and friends for some breakfast while in Keystone. First off, breakfast goes till noon but pancakes and french toast are done at 11am, so that was a disapointing surprise. As for food, biscuits were soft and stick-to-your-gut type, super good. Hashbrowns were overly thin and crisped. Bacon was a bit overdone, but overall a fine place to eat.

    Great location, the ingredients are good, the food preparation skills are fine but oh my goodness, can it be any less flavorful? Like come on, watch some Gordon Ramsey and add some funk to that menu. Get that blandness out of here Peggy. Also, the presentation is horrible!! I mean look at the pic and now the steak was served to me. No excuse for this. Would love to visit again if/when this place gets spiced up.

    Delicious homemade chicken noodle soup, thick and creamy

    Popular place with a wide variety of choices for dinner--friendly and attentive service (if you…read moredon't see your server, ask another--they clearly work well as a team) and interesting decor. Starter and food, drinks, etc., are brought promptly to the table. This is exceptional in a highly popular tourist area. The food is good but could use a little improvement--the grilled mahi-mahi was good, but a little on the dry sauce and definitely needed a sauce. A couple of the dishes did have sauces, but fish is why most Creole restaurants like Brennan's will serve a sauce on the side, or a topping with butter such as Trout Almandine. It doesn't have to be a fancy sauce--the option of good ol' tartar sauce works. The grilled vegetables also needed a little more butter and seasoning. Carrots are good on their own; broccoli and cauliflower need a little cheese or butter and some seasoning to be loved. The IPA (Long John) was excellent. The beer cheese dip and soft pretzels were to die for; the chardonnay was passable. A great choice for dining in a VERY heavily traveled tourist destination. Get there early--it starts filling up fast and all the restaurants around Mount Rushmore close at 9.

    After a full day of exploring, Mount Rushmore Brewing Company is an easy spot to add to your…read moreevening in Custer. They brew their own beer and have a laid-back atmosphere that fits perfectly after a day spent hiking and sightseeing! It's also conveniently located right in Custer, which is another reason we liked staying in town -- you can spend your day exploring the Black Hills and still have plenty of local places to check out when you get back!
