Laid back and chill vibe. Outdoor and indoor seating available. We opted to sit inside and were seated at a comfortable table. Waitress was kind and food was German and delicious. We ordered Haus Fondue, cheddar jalapeno bratwurst, and pork Jager schnitzel. 5 stars because we enjoyed ourselves and the experience was laid back and comfortable after spending hours on the slopes. read more

TL;DR YOU MAY GET OVERCHARGED. Food is great. We ordered the pretzel and sausage platter. Amazing food after a hike. This poor review is for the service and being overcharged. We hardly saw our server. She came once to take our order, someone else brought our drinks and food, then that was it. All other tables, including next to us, had their servers checked in on them. Ours disappeared. There were only 8 other tables filled up. After finishing our food and drinks, another server came up to us to ask if we needed anything else. This took another 10-15 minutes for the check to arrive...from our original server. The bill came out to $99.44. We left a $15 tip. We probably should have just left the tip blank due to the poor service and not knowing the trouble this would cause. A few days later, a $1,599.44 bill posted to my credit card. Yes, over a thousand dollars charged for a $100 meal. They took the $15 tip as a $1500 tip. I don't even know how someone could make that mistake since we only wrote $15 in the tip line. The service certainly does not deserve a $1000 tip. I still have the original receipt and we only signed for $114.44 marked in the total. How that was changed to $1,599.44 is just bonkers and just plain robbery. Now I have to dispute this with Chase. So save those receipts, and watch out for this business. read more

We went here around 4:30 pm, and thankfully they still accepted us for a quick meal for our early dinner. When we were directed to our table, our chairs by the window had so many crumbs, but it was fine since we arrived near their closing time. We got the Sausage Hunter's Platter, which was so good, and the Haus Salad, which was mid but still decent. read more

Too bad, they moved the kids activities down the mountain. This place used to be great to sit outside with a great lawn area and look at the mountains and activities going on.. That is all torn up right now so not much to do here. On top of it we would've hung out anyway to get some food and beer, but staff decided to have a team meeting and shut down the restaurant. read more

Great service and delish food! We usually go for the huge pretzel (which is so good) but this time we mixed it up and got the Sausage Hunter's Platter! This was so good. The sausage was tasty and not overly greasy. The pretzel bread was warm and fresh! The sides were perfect. Of course, the beer was great! We wanted to sit outside, but there were no umbrellas up unfortunately, and it was such a warm sunny day! read more

Yodler Restaurant & Bar - Sausage hunter's platter - Pubs Near Me - Mammoth Lakes, California

The ambiance and service was wonderful. However I didn't care for the food much. The vinaigrette was a little too vinegar heavy. They had a selection of wines and beers. I asked for wings and they didn't have any. I proceeded to ask for a wine, they also didn't have that wine in stock. So, just be mindful that smaller towns don't always have the same commodities as larger cities. read more

Yodler Restaurant & Bar - Waldorf Salad. - Pubs Near Me - Mammoth Lakes, California

The Yodler is perfectly located right next to Mammoth Mountain Inn and the gondola -- you can literally ski right up to the door. Because of that, we ended up coming here for lunch every single day we skied. They have a dog-friendly outdoor seating area (dogs aren't allowed inside), plus a great indoor space with a nice bar and plenty of tables. It was a little chilly for outdoor seating during our visit, but it's a great option in warmer weather. The staff was friendly and welcoming, and the food was consistently excellent. I ordered the broccoli cheddar soup two days in a row -- it's that good -- and it comes with a warm pretzel roll (yum). The large pretzel appetizer is huge and perfect for sharing; it easily fed our group of four. We also tried the goulash, chili, elk sausage, and burger, and everything across the board was delicious. They also have fun drink options, including boozy hot chocolate and hot cider, plus a full bar with beer and wine. If you're looking for a relaxed, sit-down lunch while skiing, this place is a no-brainer. Hours are 11-5. Highly recommend. read more

This place is an experience! It's fun to stop by for lunch or apres after skiing on the slopes. It is on the pricier side but we had to try it. The pretzel was huge! The fondue was a bit small, so I would pass on this next time. The restaurant is super cute inside and I love the beer. The staff are really nice and attentive. read more

Usually post ski session you come down to the cafeteria and get chicken tenders, chili, a burger that gets cold and 0.25 seconds. Thank goodness for this restaurant and bar! That is the absolute last thing I wanted and they delivered everything but that. It can get pretty busy, so have some patience as everyone is trying to do their best. The staff was incredibly friendly. We came for lunch back to back days sat inside for one day and outside for the next. We were never disappointed with any service whatsoever. Incredible people truly. The food was phenomenal. We had the beef stroganoff, fries, The chicken strudel sandwich or something like that and the eggplant dish, which was blow my mind crazy. I highly recommend you try their homemade classic sauerkraut because that could put me in my grave. It was so delicious that I ordered a side of it to eat with my fries. Weird mix weird combo. I don't care it was absolutely delicious and probably the best Kraut I've ever had in my life. Did I ask my husband to get me a side to go before we drove back home? Yes I absolutely did. read more

Came to Mammoth on a vacation with my whole family. They were super accommodating for all of us and the food came out fast. Don't even get me started on the pretzel and dip. It's to die for. The restaurant gives cozy German tavern and we loved it there. The snow outside added to the whole vibe. I was in a food coma after. read more

The biggest issue I have with The Yodler, is that the menu has one set of prices on it and then when you get the bill, the prices are higher than stated. We asked the bartender about it and was told that they've told management many times and that they (the bartenders) don't control the prices. We asked for the manager and were told no one was there. The $29 pretzel (on the menu) was actually $30 on the bill along with the $14 glass of wine which was $16 on the bill, etc. No way to give feedback or contact anyone on their website. Just be honest. I don't care about the prices; I won't do business with a company that tries to deceive! Not cool! The service was absolutely horrible. There were two bartenders working and only 1 other person at the bar and we could not get their attention. And when we did, they acted like we were putting them out. Not easy to find parking either as it's at the base of skiing and you have to park and walk far. read more

Amazing! Such good food to have on the mountain and the portions are huge. We came in midday on a Tuesday as a party of four and were seated immediately. We tried the pretzel and the duck fat fries, along with beer and bloody marys. Everything was divine. read more

Stefan helped my family of 12. He was absolutely fantastic. We highly recommend you ask for him. The service was fantastic. The restaurant was really chill. The food was great.

Yodler has been part of the Mammoth community since 1959. And it gets busy and for good reason. Built Bavarian style with a charming indoors and huge outdoor sundeck. And the food is authentic German - the pretzel appetizer is a must. And the service is always top notch even when they're slammed. read more

Pass by after a day of hiking to rainbow falls or devils postpile in the summer or drive up after a long day of fishing. Grab a beer but never forget to get the big pretzel. It's so big you can share with the next table over! Service is always friendly and the ambiance feels like you're in at a tent in Oktoberfest. read more

This place looked very interesting and had some cool music playing- find out that among other tasty dishes they have an elk sausage with trestle bun(Wow!) I hade to try it. We ate outside and after the nice servers let us take a tour inside and glad we read more

False advertisement-OPEN sign, door open, walked in & was told they were closed. But your sign says "OPEN". Bar tender (with 2 patrons with full drinks) "The manager hasn't turned the sign". You can go to this other place. I love this place, lots of history, good food. Poor management. Photos taken at 5:28pm read more

Good food, tasty beers and friendly service. Always stop in on our annual Mtn Bike trips.

We've been going here off and on for 20+ years. Thought it was time to write a review. Took a day off skiing last Thursday and drove there for lunch. Connor is an amazing server, bartender and ambassador. His personality is so chill. I was choosing between to new-to-me beers. I asked him what he thought was good, and he said "It's what you think is good." He asked me what sort of beers I liked and he gave me a blind taste, "Number 1 and Number 2." Loved that! This way, I wouldn't be predisposed by brand name. Did that for both pints. Pretzel is always amazing! Golden crunch on outside and soft inside. The three dips are perfect. Grilled cheese and pulled pork sandwiches were stellar! While there, a group of MMSA workers were there, along with their friends. Definitely a locals choice, too. It's always a solid experience here. Looking forward to going again next season! read more

Really solid location in Mammoth right near the adventure center. They serve Bavarian food here and definitely did not skimp on portions. I ordered an appetizer thinking it would be small but it was more than enough for two people. I really liked the sausage platter I had. The sausage was super flavorful although salty. Paired well with grapes and the sauerkraut. Loved the salted bread with mustard! A good way to sample and we ended up taking some to-go. read more

Yodler Restaurant & Bar - Sausage platter - Pubs Near Me - Mammoth Lakes, California

Love this restaurant! Beer and a giant pretzel is a must have nearly every trip to Mammoth. This past month it was our motivator to what we were going to have once we shed our backpacks after a few days in the backcountry. read more

The Yodler is the BEST place to stop after a day of skiing or mountain biking! Have a cold beer on the patio/deck and eat a GIANT, warm pretzel served with beer cheese sauce or ground mustard. All food is delicious and the service is always great! They always find fun, nice people to work there and make you feel welcome! Ambiance feels like you are in a bygone era of heavy wood and stained glass inside or sit on the deck with snow piled up high. It's such a great vibe and you should come! read more

After having come down the mountain I got pretty hungry, it wasn't from hiking or anything it was just a while since my last meal. I didn't feel like making the drive back into town and find something so I resigned myself to the lodge food. I imagined that it would be slightly above airport/amusement park food, no matter how fancy/festive the outside was. Since the weather outside was so nice we sat out on their patio deck- which had plenty of space despite all the people out and about. I took this as a additional confirmation that the food wasn't that good; if all these people were out and the place wasn't packed with diners it couldn't have been good. I was still hungry though so I ended up getting their baked potato soup and their bratwurst, again thinking airport rules applied to portion size as well as food quality. I was way off on both, not only was the soup a good size, it was surprisingly hearty and filling. The bad news was that the bratwurst was also a big size which made it difficult for me to finish but slightly spicy wurst and their stone ground mustard was good. The worse news: I decided to upgrade my fries to their bacon cheese fries and again it was a mighty struggle to finish all that food but I managed to finish because it was again surprisingly good. read more

I'm not one for bad reviews, especially with a charming place like this. And while the food was good, the service was awful. Got our orders wrong, charged us for something we didn't order (ironically the most expensive things on the menu) and didn't bring anything he said he would. The food was ok overall, but my schnitzel was burnt and dry. Our waiter wasn't attentive even if we were one of the only ones there, and we had to manually ask the cook if the fries were GF because someone in our party is seriously allergic to gluten, and he rolled his eyes at us (they do have gluten by the way). Anyway, the food is ok, but a little expensive for what you're getting. Portions are small, and they went really scarce with sides. The one thing I loved was the pretzel, they don't give you plates, even if we had a party of six, so be warned it comes hot. But it was delicious, soft and definitely shareable. Probably won't go back, even if the food is ok, read more

Our hotel, Mammoth Mountain Inn, was supposed to have a restaurant but it was closed for repairs, bummer. We were told on our first night at our hotel this place wasn't open either but we found out it was after we went to town to get a bite to eat at Mammoth Brewery. We decided to try it the next night and it was really good. One of our better experiences on our little trip. The waiter, who was also the bartender, was really attentive. We split a burger and fries. Wow, what a good burger and the fries were crispy, seasoned well and oh, so delicious! The hubby also had a hot toddy that he said was great. I recommend this place, highly! read more

Always have dinner here when in town. Is so convenient and the food is good. The Giant pretzel is a must. It's a great appetizer for the whole family. The cheese dipping sauce is so good. I always get the chicken sandwich and this time around I tried the fondue fries. They are now my new favorite item. Drinks are good and the atmosphere is always good. They have a fire place inside but, weather was so nice we opted for an outdoor table. read more

This place was in the middle of all the action they provide at the Mammoth Inn. We were hungry after a day of hiking and exploring in and around mammoth. The outdoor seating was packed and a happening scene so we were delighted to go inside to the air conditioning and quiet. Cody our waiter was a very sweet and helpful guy. I had many questions and concerns about wearing heels up the tram to the mountain top wedding. He forewarned me that it was dirt and uneven. Check, pack flats too! We ordered beer and lemonade and then we tried the pickle sandwich. It's a great idea for all of us that just can't get enough pickles! It was filled with chicken salad and was so delicious! Also Cody assured me the fries were good and they would be cooked crispy. (the worth-it factor) Everything was perfect! When we were getting ready to leave a bunch of families with small children came in. Perfect timing. The outside area is filled with fun activities; a climbing wall, tightropes, all sorts of fun for the the kids. Cody was the best! read more

Such a great spot right in the heart of Mammoth Mountain! Came during the summer season on a weekday so it wasn't busy. Service was friendly and quick. After a long day of outdoor adventures this place really hit the spot. I had the bratwurst and it was everything I wanted it to be. The creamy Waldorf chicken salad is also a great choice!

We stay at Mammoth Inn each year and barely just discovered Yodler. It is VERY convenient! We end our day on the mountain by just snowboarding up to the restaurant. The food is very very delicious! The place itself is very cozy and welcoming. Service is excellent! We eat here at least twice every trip! read more

Respectfully, this place was bussin' &:) Honestly they could have just phoned it in with the typical tourist fare and quality, but there was nothing that we ate that was short of solid. Great music, great service, and if we weren't so full from lunch, we would've ordered another pretzel to go. We'll for sure be adding this to the regular rotation whenever we're up here. read more
