The baked beans and cornbread were excellent, too, and the brownie was a nice treat to finish the meal. It's clear this family-owned business takes pride in the quality of its food. We thoroughly enjoyed every bite and will definitely be back the next time we're in Canaan Valley. Highly recommended!

We managed to get a table and the servers were quick and friendly. They let us know they were busy and gave updates on when our meals were coming. Even still, with the placed packed to the gills, it wasn't an unreasonable wait (despite the lady behind us complaining loudly, shame...). They warned us of large portions and they weren't exaggerating. I got a half size salad that would probably have been a full size at most other places. The lettuce was a spring mix, very good and fresh, with berries and grilled chicken. Yum. While we got close to cleaning our plates, it was a challenge. Prices were amazing given the portions. I would gladly stop again, and with the amount of locals in attendance, I hope they continue sending out massive plates of great food.

The sandwich came with baked beans, Coleslaw and a cornbread muffin. All were really good and of generous size. I also had a local draft beer and another in my party had a gin and tonic. Another in my party got the pot roast (with real mashed potatoes, broccoli and a side salad. Again, generous size and all prepared very well. The third in our party got a burger and fries...he fancies himself a bit of a burger/fry connoisseur and said it was a really good burger and fries--only critique was he might take a couple of the red onions off the burger as they were 'fresh' and a bit strong. Despite it being off season and commensurately less staffing, service was prompt, courteous and accurate. The ambiance, while being a large (and in our case relatively empty) laid back dining hall, the views of the valley are unsurpassed. We will definitely be back

We were in the area climbing the via ferrata at Nelson Rocks, about 20 minutes down the road, when…read morewe needed a hearty lunch to fuel us. We found Yokum's and decided to give it a shot. Such a quaint, country joint. We were welcomed by a full parking lot (great sign that the place is tasty) and folks swinging on wooden outdoor swings. Inside you will find half of the establishment is a food spot where you can order and dine in, while the other half is a store that you can purchase camping supplies, necessities, food, and souvenirs. I opted for the best sweet tea I ever tried and very filling hot dogs (we got the 2 for $9 special). The dogs are loaded with chili and cole slaw. Even though they look moderate in size, I was full after eating one thanks to all the toppings. Overall, such a warm pit stop, very close to Seneca and Nelson Rocks. We ended up coming back a second time. Highly recommend!

In the end the food and service were nothing to write home about.
