    Cute shopping area
    Veronica B.

    We ordered 2 breakfast sandwiches and burritos. They were very large in size, so the portion was good. The sandwiches were fresh but the potatoes in the burritos could have been cooked a little bit longer. The burrito did have a good flavor thanks to the salsa. Cute restaurant/shop that makes everything fresh to order.

    So I ordered this burrito today. It had hashbrowns, beans, salsa, cheese, ham, and egg wrapped in a tortilla for $11 for some reason with all that stuff in it, it still had no flavor. Order at the counter, kind of cozy like your own trailer home.

    Coffee ice!
    Jenn S.

    I only got a cold brew with the suggested flavor combo of shortbread and brown sugar, but this place is such a cute calm atmosphere. They do breakfast and lunch and have all kinds of fun things to look at and purchase. What I loved most was the local feel. They have pictures of local dogs that they named their sandwiches after, they have books for purchase and one was about the wolves in Yellowstone and written by someone who at least frequents the area if not a local person. (complete assumption) There were plants and just a cozy place. When we go back to Yellowstone we will be stopping by for some food and I will update them, but they put coffee ice in the cold brew! What?! I have never had a place do that before. Love it. The service was great too. Very friendly.

    Artist corner showing where profit goes to.

    Great food. Good variety for everyone in our family. Service is excellent. The workers are friendly and helpful. The cafe provides a very welcoming vibe. Also utilizes their space by providing local artist space to sell their work of art.

    The food was marginal at best. The interior was very messy and falling apart. The atmosphere was not too nice. The furniture was outdated.

On our last day, tired of snacks from the grocery store for breakfast, we looked for a restaurant to have a real meal and found the Deli very close to our hotel. As I mentioned, subs at lunch were great and, since they are open for breakfast, we ate there. Not many tables inside but most of their business is takeout so no issues there. Breakfast offerings are limited but great. I had a bacon/egg/cheese croissant and fishing partner had the waffles. Both highly recommended. Other items offered included omelets which we did not try. If we were thinking correctly we would have grabbed a couple subs for lunch and regretted this oversight later in the day!

There is a variety of artwork, from fun posters to beautiful nature photos along the walls. For the dinner service, we also appreciated the candlelight feel with instrumental pop music in the background. We stayed primarily in the dining area but also noticed that the restaurant appears to have a bar and maybe casino in the backroom? A huge plus is a souvenir shop featuring tons of Huckleberry products next door. Now on to the food! We were very impressed. My husband ordered the buffalo chicken sandwich and I ordered the bison burger. The servers were all so friendly and kind and super helpful, recommending the bison to be cooked medium. The food portions were generous, the fries were crispy, and the bison burger was juicy with the right amount of tomato, lettuce, pickles, and melted Swiss cheese to make the flavors pop. Could you tell how much we loved the food? To top it all off, we ordered dessert and had the most delicious Huckleberry cobbler with Huckleberry ice cream. I asked the waitress if that was too much Huckleberry, and she said the ice cream was a hit -- it really made the dessert. Oddly, it was reminiscent of breakfast, but in the best way. The cobbler was warm, the Granola was crunchy, and the ice cream was cool and sweet. The medley of textures honestly made this the best dessert I've had this year. Hats off to the Yellowstone Mine staff and chefs for making the start of our trip so memorable!

    While small in size and selection, GSG (solely an acronym and not meant to sound like a new street…read moredrug) is the closest shop to the north entrance of Yellowstone National Park. Since addresses are practically non-existent in Gardiner, MT (check out Google Maps if you don't believe me), just go all the way to the far west end of the main shopping strip on Park Street or simply ask one of the locals. GSG is a gift shop with a lot of key chains, bumper stickers, knick-knacks and cute children's t-shirts. Next door, like all the other souvenir shops in Gardiner, is a little cafe selling sweets and coffee. GSG's cafe seems to be the only cafe in town to actually have locals in it drinking their coffees while passing countless hours of the day away (most likely gossiping about own townies and homely, outdoorsy tourists). I recommend Yellowstone Gifts & Sweets down the street but both stores have different items for sale unlike many other tourist towns.

Owner Jerry is great, he makes an awesome specialty coffee as compared to the pharmacy/coffee shop next door. Nice quaint sitting area, a full view of park entrance arch and the mountain range ahead.

We ordered the burrito, which was a great item to split. They put the cheese on top of the burrito.. and were out of knives, so in order to eat it... we had to pry it apart with the plastic spoon and forks that we got. The chili was a complete disappointment.. I was really looking forward to it.. there was ONE block of meat... again, no knives so you couldn't really try and cut it apart and enjoy it in a few bites either.. The place has a great presentation, but the food and rules in general were a huge let down.

The staff was friendly, service was prompt, and the atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming.

    The food is good - BUT - this place is kind of a hot mess…read more We came for breakfast on a Sunday. They were out of a lot of things. Also - if you drink coffee - the espresso machine was broken. My husband wanted a biscuit breakfast sandwich with sausage - they were out of biscuits. So I got him a bagel breakfast sandwich with sausage instead. I ordered sausage links for my baby, I asked if they had any kind of fruit I could buy for my baby. They said no that they only had bananas for smoothies - which is odd being a place that sells fruit smoothies... For myself I ordered a croissant sausage breakfast sandwich and a mango madness smoothie). My mother in law wanted a lotus energy drink - but they were out of lotus syrup. A few minutes later the gal that rang us up came to our table and let us know they were out of sausage for breakfast sandwiches. Asked what we wanted instead. They still has sausage links, so that's what we had on our sandwiches. When our food was ready they brought everything over except the sausage for my baby - which they clearly forgot to make cause that was a long wait till it arrived (5 or more minutes). Putting food in front of a hungry baby and none of it is for him is not a good idea lol. My husband ended up giving him his sausage and wait to eat his sandwich till they brought more over. I also gave my baby some of my smoothie - the smoothie was good. So, out of several items, and forgot part of our order.... Just seemed a bit chaotic. Food and smoothie was good and the people who work there are nice.
