    Exterior. You get your food from the truck.

    Interesting place. Good food and beer. You order inside but pick up food from a truck outside. Have both indoor and outdoor seating. We really enjoyed it!

    Chicken sandwich
    Jami W.

    Stopped in this fun spot after a day in Yosemite. Ordered the chicken sandwich, which was super tasty! They had live music inside and we chose to sat outside as it can get pretty loud. Very fun atmosphere if you're looking for something lively! Food came quickly from the pickup window out.

    10/10 for food, drinks, and ambience. There was live music which just put everything else over the top. There's a reason why this is one of the highest rated options in Mariposa!

    Fun spot to grab a drink and snack. They are dog and kid friendly so that's always a plus. Lots of room outside for the kids to play and we also met another family and ended up hanging out and eating together. Great spot to check out if your day n town and looking for something to do besides hanging out in your hotel room.

    What a gem! Amazing cocktails, great beer selections, outstanding burgers. Bartender was excellent! Can't wait to come back again and again. Great ambiance, lots of locals and visitors, a great mix. Dog friendly, can't wait to come back in the summer months.

    After a long day of hiking at Yosemite, we sped back to Mariposa and ran into the Grove House around 9:36 pm as they were one of the few places open late. With about 24 min left before closing, we were afraid they would turn us away but the woman working at the bar who took our order was very kind and understanding. The food here is so delicious, I'm kind of sad we didn't eat here till our 3rd night staying in Mariposa. My brother got the fried chicken sandwich with the chips and salsa while I got the grove house burger with fries. I had a burger at another popular restaurant in town and this burger beat it hands down, wasn't even comparable. The double patties were so moist unlike the dry patty at the other establishment and I was super stokes that it came with a pretzel bun! I'm super particular about my fries but these were the tastiest crinkle cut fries I've ever had - perfectly crispy, seasoned well with salt and vinegar, and a doughy potatoey inside.

    Grilled Chicken Pesto sandwich with fries.  A thick chicken breast, moist and cooked perfectly!

    First time trying The Grove House for a meal and it was well worth it! We had the Grilled Chicken Pesto sandwich. I chose fries foe my side and my brother had salad. You order at the bar, take a pager, and go pick up your food from the food truck/trailer parked on premises. Nice atmosphere with both indoor and outdoor seating. Live music on various dates. Our chicken sandwiches were fresh, hot and perfectly cooked. Worth a little wait. Sides were also good. Pleasant staff and a great choice for a meal when in town

    Potato Quesadilla, The Grove House Burger
    Felicia L.

    The Grove House was such a pleasant place to stop by for dinner after a long drive to Yosemite. My husband and I were both starving, and decided to check it out since he really wanted to try the potato quesadilla. I ordered the Grove House burger with tater tots and left feeling very full. Service was good and there was a live performance when we were there so the energy was great and relaxing. There were tons of seats and tables outside too and overall just a lot of space to move around. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars is because I felt like for the quantity of food I got, it wasn't quite worth the price. For $20, the burger was pretty small and the tater tots were not super special. It tasted good, but was not worth $20.

    Outdoor seating a plenty!

    Good food, good drinks, great vibes! We started going to the Grovehouse for the drinks but honestly it's our go to spot for the atmosphere. Never had a less than great time and great company there! I will forever be requesting rap music trivia though

    Outstanding brews, cocktails, grub, and live music. Anna makes the best old fashioned ever, they keep the beer varied and delicious, and Miles keeps the kitchen fresh with seasonal menus. You can't find a better local venue for lively music. Our favorite local digs for food, brews, and music.

It's a smaller spot, so expect a wait, but honestly the bar makes it easy to relax while you wait for a table. Everyone was very attentive and polite. When I stayed in Mariposa, I tried their special. A burger with shrimp and sweet potato fries. Definitely different, but it worked surprisingly well and tasted amazing. Also, you HAVE to try the local brews, so get the flight. This place honestly feels like Mariposa's little slice of fancy without trying too hard. I had dessert too, and I can't even remember what it was called... I just remember it was gooooooood.

I had the Mist Trail, their local hazy brew, and it was honestly one of the best hazies I've had. It was crisp and had the citrus notes I always look for in a good hazy. I also had the 1850 Burger, which did not disappoint. It was cooked to a perfect medium, properly seasoned, and had a great balance of vegetables and a delicious sauce. I don't think it even had cheese, but it was so flavorful that I didn't miss it at all. Then there were the Ahi Nachos, which were on a whole different level. The raw ahi tuna was incredibly fresh, the fried wontons were perfectly crispy, and the sauce they drizzled over everything absolutely sealed the deal. This was easily one of the standout dishes of the meal. This isn't full table service, we ordered at the counter near the entrance, then found a table and waited for our food to be delivered. Everything came out quickly, and the staff continued to check on us throughout our visit. This would be a great spot no matter where it was located, but having a place like this in such a small town makes it stand out even more. Great food, great beer, friendly service, and a welcoming atmosphere. I'd definitely love to come back here!

After 15 minutes, we were told that a wedding party had reserved the entire bar and we had to finish our drinks outside in the cold, where there were no seats. My husband asked for a refund, since we had barely begin to drink. The server went to ask the bartender, and returned to say that we had to finish our drinks and leave. We were told that they knew the wedding party had reserved the bar and would be arriving at some point in the evening. Now I can understand that neither the server nor the bartender made the reservation or knew exactly when the bar would have to be closed down. However, they should have told us that the bar would be closing, and given us the opportunity to go somewhere else. They also should have refunded our drinks, because it was their fault not to have warned us beforehand. This is simply an example of poor management.

A little over priced, imo, since you have no server and have to grab menus, table, water, etc yourself. Order at the register, they'll bring it to you. Lots of rotating options on tap! Tried a canned wine that wasn't to my fruition palate, but they have hard Seltzer and spurs that are absolutely delicious! Like a grown up Capri sun, so refreshing. Our favorite menu options are the pretzel and the Caesar salad. I also tried the shrimp tacos, and they were good, but fairly small portion of ingredients and shrimp for the price. I haven't tried any sandwiches yet, but those look promising. Sandwiches and tacos come with chips, or you can upgrade to fries or salad. Definitely worth checking out if you're in the area. I've only eaten inside, but there seems to be a beer garden behind the brewery.

I like the vibes and they usually have pretty decent food. I was really excited to see that they had Beer Slushies and Non-Alcoholic Slushies on their menu. They also came in different sizes - I got a 5 oz glass of each. I loved the Beer Slushie - I even ordered another one because they were that good. My daughter also really liked the Non-Alcoholic version which was Vanilla Ice Cream and Red Starburst Slushie. For food, we ordered the Cubano Sandwich and Loaded Baked Potato with added Jalapenos. The food was okay - it was flavorful and cooked well, but there was nothing overly special about it. Our friends ordered Nachos and Fish Tacos as well which I think they enjoyed. Overall, I can't really comment on staff other than the guy at the counter that takes your order who was nice. I saw that they do events on Tuesdays like trivia and they also were advertising a fundraiser that was coming up - I like when businesses support their local community! I would definitely come back for a Beer Slushie...or three! Check them out!

The experience got off to a rough start when we waited five minutes before anyone acknowledged us or told us where to sit. Once seated, we waited an hour for our food. During that time, we learned that multiple menu items were unavailable. Given the long wait, we expected the food to be worth it, but when it finally arrived, much of it was poor quality and not edible. The most upsetting part of the evening was that our children were already tired and hungry from the long wait, and the overall atmosphere became increasingly uncomfortable. Nearby diners began making negative comments about our children, which left everyone feeling upset and unwelcome. After waiting so long and having such a poor experience, we were surprised that we were still charged for food that was largely left uneaten. I understand that restaurants can have difficult nights, staffing shortages, or unexpected issues. It was clear that the staff were going through a hard time. However, between the lack of service, long wait, unavailable menu items, disappointing food, and uncomfortable atmosphere, this was one of the worst restaurant experiences our family has had in a long time. After leaving, we ate at another restaurant in town and mentioned our experience to a local resident who said she had lived in Mariposa for more than 30 years and had repeatedly had negative experiences at Miners'. Hearing that made us feel like our experience may not have been an isolated incident. I hope management takes steps to improve both the customer experience and food quality going forward.
