Old Faithful Lodge Cafeteria

The literal - and I mean literal - worst food I’ve ever had. Since we have no cell phone service in the park, we didn’t have any way of reading reviews prior to eating here. Man, I wish we had. This food is INEDIBLE and actually made me sick. I’ve had better food at a neighborhood pool concession stand. I made it simple - I got cheese pizza, breadsticks with marinara; and my husband got a hot dog. The pizza literally looked and tasted like if you put a $5 frozen pizza under your couch for 3 weeks and then took it back out, immediately microwaved it, and then charged $13 for it. You have to tear a bite off with your teeth like a wolf ripping the flesh off its prey. It’s a choking hazard. The secret ingredient is probably leather. My husband’s hot dog - the bun literally cracks and disintegrates in your hands. The buns are probably some of the oldest and driest, hardest and grossest buns in existence. But the breadsticks and marinara. GUYS. THIS IS POISONOUS. The breadsticks are the same as the pizza, hard and dry and horrible - but the freaking marinara sauce lol I can’t even explain how quickly I had to spit it all back out onto my tray. It actually burned my mouth with the vinegar residue. It was the most out of this world putrid disgusting vile evil thing I’ve ever had the displeasure of mistaking for food in my life. SPARE YOURSELF AND YOUR LOVED ONES. THIS IS MARINARA COLORED TOXIC WASTE!!! Old Faithful cafe should own up to its failures. There are a lot of reviews on her about how poor quality the food is. And boy, it’s bad. Do better - the whole Old Faithful experience is a pure money pit. Y’all are able to do better than this.

Old Faithful Lodge Cafeteria & Bake Shop gets a 3 out of 5 rating from me. Here’s the lowdown… What’s Good: The chicken was moist and flavorful—one of the best cafeteria-style proteins I’ve had in Yellowstone The mac and cheese was tasty, and the baked beans were okay You get a great view of Old Faithful while eating, especially from the dining area or the adjacent bake shop seating The staff are friendly and helpful, which makes grabbing a quick meal more pleasant The Not-So-Good: The cafeteria is expensive, as you’d expect in a park setting Food quality is inconsistent—some folks find it underwhelming, even “horrid” according to a former employee Options are limited, especially if you’re looking for something more than standard cafeteria fare . Overall Take: If you need a quick bite with a view, this cafeteria does the job. The meat is decent, the atmosphere is nice, and it’s convenient. Just don’t come expecting gourmet food. It’s serviceable and scenic, but not worth going out of your way for.

If there’s one place that proudly takes the crown for the worst food I’ve ever had, this one’s a clear winner. We had about an hour to kill before the next Old Faithful eruption, so we thought, “Why not grab a bite at the Old Faithful Cafe?” I’d read the reviews—yes, I had—but figured, how bad could it really be? Well, turns out… pretty bad. Let’s rewind a bit. I was genuinely excited to see Butter Chicken and Basmati Rice on the menu. I wasn’t expecting gourmet, just something edible. But no, that’s where the surprise decided to jump out and smack me in the face. The rice? So sticky—clearly someone got a little too friendly with the water. And the star of the show, the butter chicken? Let’s just say… it’s best I don’t go into detail. Some things are better left unspoken. If you’re reading this—do yourself a favor and skip eating here. But if you still decide to go for it… may your taste buds find peace.

The place is beautiful and the atmosphere is inviting and comfortable. The cabin vibes are immaculate. The staff were great and on top of cleaning and being kind. The food was low-key mid for the price but I would come again.

Simple cafeteria to grab a quick bite and take a break in the Old Faithful area. It's a cafeteria in a National Park so adjust your expectations accordingly. Several different stations serving different foods. Look around, pick your items, head to the register, and grab any open table.

Definitely take a break here while waiting for Old Faithful to blow. Staff is friendly. Gyros was a bit salty. Shredded chicken was a bit bland. Bottomless soda hot the spot. Photos from the dining room are better in the morning. Sunset back light makes for Challenging photos.

A great place to have lunch and take a good break from the hiking around the grounds of Old Faithful. Food is served cafeteria style. Food tasted and was presented just as you would expect in any cafeteria. Service was great. Friendly people. Just expect a bit of a wait if you come during peak lunch hours. They serve main dishes as well as beverages and desserts. The dining area makes the location 5 stars. Big windows allowing natural like to enjoy your meal as if you were outside.

Fun little place just across from the Old Faithful Geyser. Food was pretty good at a decent price, and the atmosphere was fun and homey. Staff were very kind and helpful. There are not a ton of options for food, but what they do have is delicious.

This area is very expensive, as it's one of the only areas in the Old Faithful area to grab food that's not just a sandwich. Plus, a lot of other locations close around 1:30-2:30, which makes finding food even more difficult. When you approach, there is a sign that points to different areas/types of food. You then grab a tray (cafeteria-style) and go to those specific locations to grab the item you'd like. We tried the gyro and lentil curry since we weren't feeling a burger. The gyro was alright, but the meat wasn't very good. The flatbread it was served on was hard/stale. With the curry, it was surprisingly flavorful and spicy. The rice was really not great though. The line to get food was slow, as the people serving seemed confused and stressed. The price was, of course, ridiculous. As other people say in their comments, if there's a way to skip this location, do so. Oddly enough, this was one of the better spots in the park compared to Yellowstone Lake and Canyon Village.

The food is pretty decent, there's a main cafeteria that's open for lunch and dinner that has themes of different foods, including barbecue, Indian, Greek, hotdogs. The pricing is actually really decent. I would say about $10-$15 per person. In the mornings, there's a small café style kiosk open that coffee and dry food/cereal/bagels. The people are so nice and kind, they give generous heapings of food and are really happy to show you the different offerings. The food actually tastes really good. We had the barbecue tofu, chicken and chicken tikka masala which comes with rice and naan. And the portion size was big enough for two people I felt - the tofu was around 9.95, bbq chicken was 13.95, and the chicken tikka masala was 17.95. The bison vindaloo was pricey at 24.95. All in all, this place was a great stay, clean, friendly service, and perfect location.

We got a few chicken sandwiches and protein bars. This is more of a self service snack bar inside the lodge. You pick up a snack and pay at the lodge check in counter. They have cutlery and a microwave for cold snacks as well. This is a good quick option inside the national park.

We came to this cafeteria at old faithful inn to get refreshing ice cream after a sunny day outside watching the old faithful show. Ice cream was good and refreshing, I can't comment on food since we only ordered ice cream. The service was friendly. The store looked clean and tidy. Overall a good experience.

The food deserved one star. The veggie sandwich for just under $10, consisted of spinach, onions, and two slices of provolone cheese on a dense, stale bun. However, the view from the dining room and the opportunity to sit on the porch in a rocking chair to watch Old Faithful erupt was a five-star experience. The cashier was friendly as well as the bus staff.

We had dinner and breakfast at the cafeteria and breakfast at the bakery. The food is all to go and there are benches outside the building that you can eat at. We got dinner from the cafeteria our first night in Old Faithful Lodge. We got Barbecue Pork Ribs with corn, beans, & coleslaw, and Bison sloppy joe with mac & cheese. We liked our food, the ribs were tender, falling of the bone. We do not generally like beans, these were good. The Bison sloppy joe was great. We were sitting on one of the benches outside the lobby eating dinner when one of geysers behind Old Faithful erupted, that was a great dinner show. We got breakfast from the cafeteria the next morning, we got scrambled eggs with bacon and french toast (the same item is available at Canyon lodge too). The breakfast was okay. The next morning we got breakfast sandwiches to go from the bakery, we got Ham, Egg, & cheese sandwiches on bagel. The sandwich was very good. If you are planning to get any meal from the Old Faithful Lodge Cafeteria make sure you check the timings of the Old Faithful eruption. Lots of people head in after an eruption leading to long lines.

Don't. Like every other eating establishment we tried "in the park" in multiple locations, this one was boring, overpriced, and forgettable. Our recommendation? Go to a grocery and make your own meals in the park. VERY nice people work in ALL of these places, but the food is strictly poor to mediocre, and the prices are OUTRAGEOUS. CHANGE VENDORS! Customers are getting GOUGED for tasteless food and overpriced beverages.

We were very surprised by how good the food here was. The setup reminded me of a dining hall or cafeteria at a camp, and it was very well organized. It was busy when we were there, but the staff kept the line moving efficiently. The Bison Bratwurst plate & BBQ pulled pork sandwich we're both delicious and not what we expected to find in the middle of a National park. We got to pick two sides with them - the macaroni and cheese was on point, and the corn cob was super juicy. The prices here were also super reasonable, especially (as I said before) for being in the middle of a National park at a main attraction. Our total came to like $33 with both meals and 2 drinks. Wouldn't go out of my way to come here, but if at Old Faithful, it's a great place to get your food.

Food was better than expected. Cafe style service. Handle lots of folks fast. Make sure you look at food map to know direction you each need to take. Always a rish following OF eruption. Coke products.

Good food and great prices for in-park, but really slow. (Like, you'll spend a ton of time in line wondering what the hell is taking so long and the workers are probably thinking the same thing, "Why am I still staring at the same person?") Missed an Old Faithful eruption because of it (was on-site and in the Lodge 25 min early.) They also had a limited menu I believe due to COVID (that had been crossed out, etc.) and when we went to order items still listed, they said they were out of those too.

It was refreshing to finally find a place in Yellowstone National Park that served something besides Bison, Elk, or Trout. Noodle bowls and pasta, for example. However, all of this was tarnished the moment an "automatic one-star event" occurred. For example, a server can cuss you out and call you a liar, then spill wine on your shirt = automatic one-star. Or, the food can be so putrid, that you'd rather eat a cotton/cardboard sandwich = automatic one-star. In this case, we saw a healthy, active MOUSE under our table, which then scuttled away to the next table, picking up morsels for its dinner. Before I almost puked, I thought about Ratatouille, but then realized this was a mouse, not a rat, and that there was no way it was the real chef. We quickly informed the nearest server, which to our surprise 'already knew' about it and helped us move tables. Hmm... if they already knew about it... the rest of the meal was hard to digest, so we packed it to go, for a lovely change of scenery into our hotel room. Yuk... sorry, no choice but to warn others by giving 1-star.

What's good about this place is you can grab a hot meal already prepared, pay for it quickly (cafeteria style), sit down in a giant dining room lodge setting and eat at your own leisure. This worked well for me. I only afforded myself 3 days to explore Yellowstone National Park. Since I had plenty of ideas, itineraries and sights to see....the Old Faithful Lodge's Cafeteria was a simple and successful dining option. When you walk inside the cafeteria, you have different styles of cuisines to choose from. Sandwiches, salads, soups, burgers...your typical stuff...and I even saw an Asian station offering what looked like a take on Chinese food. I chose a chicken sandwich. It was pretty generic with lettuce and a sliced tomato on a plain bun. The sandwich came with a side of my choice....and the macaroni and cheese looked interesting. For drinks....they have fountain sodas where you can refill your cup as often as you'd like. Sitting down in the dining room area....there's plenty of space with tables and chairs. There's also a giant glassed window overlooking the Old Faithful Geyser area....though trying to view Old Faithful's eruption from inside the dining room is not recommendable. Still, just looking onto the outdoors was pleasant. One note....I visited Yellowstone back in the middle of May this year. I ate at the cafeteria during lunchtime on a Thursday and the place was virtually empty. I actually appreciated the quietness at the time along with the rustic look of the cafeteria's dining room. My chicken was sandwich did the job. It was fine....nothing too great, but nothing so poor that it was inedible. It was good for my expectations and for satisfying my midday hunger as I was roaming all over the park and seeing as many geysers and hot springs as possible, lol. The mac and cheese was doable also, and the fountain soda option was nice as I drank to my heart's content. Overall, please don't have high expectations here. As it says....it's cafeteria style food, not fine dining. Yet to be able to eat inside Yellowstone Park, (one of the busiest and most toured parks in the country) is an added bonus as it's affordable dining at your own pace minus any real hassles. When you're ready, you can continue on viewing the wonderful scenery. I'm a fan of the availability and convenience of this place....the Old Faithful Lodge Cafeteria.

There is a bakeshop that serves coffee and breakfast items in the morning. Then a few items at lunch. The bakeshop is the only thing open in the morning. I wish they had two lines; one just for coffee and then another one if you want coffee plus something else. All three mornings I had to wait over a half hour for two cups of coffee. There are no coffee makers in the cabins. Or have more than two people working in the bakeshop in the morning. But they get it we will wait for coffee. We did not eat in the cafeteria as the menu didn't appeal to us.

The food was just ok. It is very convenient if you're there to see old faithful. I wouldn't go out of my way to eat there, just to eat there. It gets packed after old faithful is all done, so keep that in mind.

This is a beautiful historic building, so there is no AC. In the summer it was pretty warm and uncomfortable inside! The cafeteria reminded me of one at a school. It smelled gross and the food looked like it had been sitting out all day. I was thankful we were just there to see old faithful and grab a quick bite. If I was staying at the lodge I would be highly disappointed based on the food selection! I went to the deli and got their turkey Swiss sandwich. The bread was extremely DRY!! For $8 a pop I expected a little better!! There was a decent amount of meat and cheese, but the bread was horrible! We also ate at a different restaurant inside Yellowstone (north) and they were serving the same sandwiches on the same dry bread!! I am wondering if it is frozen and gets dried out in the thawing our process. I would recommend eating OUTSIDE the park if possible!

Good place to enjoy your lunch and watch the geyser eruption before your eyes. The cafeteria serves rice and noodles (for those who are tired of endless bison and elk burgers) and it's not that expensive. It was also pretty quick once you are done waiting in the line. Food tasted ok. The interior is dated but you can't really sit inside at this time, so go enjoy the Old Faithful and your meal outside!

5 stars because of the architecture of the building plus you can get a hot meal before you view Old Faithful right outside the window. Not many food places to eat in the area plus I like just sitting in the cafeteria thinking about the people of years past that ate here

They have a few options - Mediterranean, BBQ, Asian... I had the rice bowl from the noodle station. They offer up vegan options at this station (not sure about the other stations). I ordered the gardein chick'n (delicious) over brown rice (super mushy and over cooked - I only ate the toppings) with hoisin sauce, green onion, peanuts, corn and broccoli. It was good and was happy to get a vegan option. My fiancé had BBQ chicken but the inside of the chicken was blackish brown (in photo across from my rice bowl) and it grossed him out so he didn't end up eating it. They have a bottle refill station in the seating area which was nice.

Love coming to the Old Faithful Lodge for the gift shops surrounding the "Old Faithful Geyser", museum and ice cream shops! I've eaten at the cafeteria 3 times now. Although limited, there are vegetarian options. In the rice and noodle part of the cafeteria bar there are Gardein chicken strips that can be added to your bowl. There are also menu items such as Mac n Cheese, veggie sandwich and veggie chili that are available to vegetarians. They also have chips and other snacks that one can add to their plate. It is a little more on the expensive side, be prepared to spend $60 for 4 adults (one main entree and drink for each, some added side items). There is usually a lot of space to sit at, even for large groups. Begins to get packed after the "Old Faithful Geyser" has erupted or between noon and 1 pm.

After hiking for the entire day, I was unable to get dinner seating in the Old Faithful Inn Dining Room. So, I walked over to the Old Faithful Lodge Cafeteria and ordered a complete turkey dinner. The turkey was carved into 4 uniform slices; each slice was very flavorful and tender, and covered with delicious turkey gravy. The meal also included a large helping of mashed potatoes, with more gravy and a side of vegetables. The mashed potatoes were fresh; they were flavorful and appeared to be home-made in texture. The vegetables were tasty, too. I am awarding 4 stars for the turkey meal. The cafeteria wait staff was very courteous, attentive and hard-working. I am awarding 5 stars to them for being oriented to good customer service.

This is the worst meal I have ever eaten. We had to wait in line for over an hour, and everything was so disgusting we through it all away. Just do yourself a favor and pack a lunch.

Fair fare. You like that? Fair fare? I couldn't resist... So-so food. Good for some sustenance if you're lunching near Old Faithful and a lot cheaper than other options. A few cafeteria choices and enough to get you through the day.

Hello! You've found this review for two reasons: 1) you are interested in eating here and want the scoop or 2) you've just completely extinguished every fluid in your body and you want to let the world know to avoid the same disaster. See below for instructions for each. 1) TURN AROUND NOW! Avoid the cafeteria at all costs. Look, I get it. You waited 91 minutes to muster up something stupid like, "let off some steam, Bennett" when Old Faithful blew. However, it doesn't mean you should reward yourself by jamming garbage down your own blowhole. While everybody realizes that Old Faithful was more disappointing than Prometheus, if you want greater disappointment, get to the cafeteria. It's utter tresh. I screwed up there. Don't you also be an example. Being the Philly native, I ordered a bison cheesesteak. My first mistake was realizing that there were no grills around. After witnessing the minimum wage food service chump grab a scoop of mystery goop from a giant pan and attempt to serve it to me, I had no choice but to throw it on the floor. I attempted to order something that didn't look like garbage, but still regret the entire decision. I also went back several times to order multiple Grand Teton ales thinking that the beer would wash away my sorrows, but I was so very wrong. 2) If you happen to have eaten here then I regret to inform you that you are in for a world of hurt. There is not much for you to do, but there is slight hope. I recommend dropping your phone or whatever device is connected to Yelp and running out of the cafeteria entrance toward the gift shops. Make a swift left hand turn and you'll notice bathrooms towards the end of the hall. That'll let you relinquish the insides of yours that have turned to soup. Now that you've gotten most of the garbage out of your system, you need to burn out the rest of the goop that stuck on the way down. There is nothing better for this than a bottle of tequila and a cold shower.

I ordered a 'Barbecue Pulled Pork Sub Sandwich' and instead received two stale buns with a piece of dry chicken meat hastily stuck between the two and then proceeded to have miscellaneous slices of lettuce shoved onto my plate -- no not on my sandwich, my PLATE -- as well as (I suppose for good measure) a single, lonely, half-sliced pickle. :( Rest in peace my wallet. :'(

Well, we had just caught the tail end of Old Faithful putting on its show. We had about another 90 minutes before the Old Faithful Geyser would begin again. We did not want to spoil our appetite for dinner so we just decided to have a couple of snacks here at their cafeteria while waiting. I browsed their selections here, and all the entrees looked okay. The prices were reasonable especially if you consider that we are in a tourist hot spot. I expected the prices to be much higher. The dining area was very clean, but the best place to snack would be at the patio observation deck just outside the dining area. It offered a terrific view of Old Faithful.

I ordered their trout amandine which is a pan fried trout with grounded almonds. I'm not a big fan of rainbow trout but I must say that their trout amandine was one of the best tasting trout dish I've tried so far. Crispy on the outside, and the trout meat is slightly tender and not too dry. Interestingly, I couldn't taste much of the almonds for this dish. I had a few sides with my dish. The veggies were soggy and mushy. Without a doubt, they were from a frozen bag from Costco. The stuffing was wet, mushy, and it taste like plain mushed up whole wheat bread with added water. The whole wheat bun tasted just like the stuffing, but it was a heck more dry. The best side was the mashed potatoes. They didn't screw up on this one.

Wow... never had food that bad. Had the pulled pork sandwich. Beans were not cooked and the sauce was just BBQ sauce. The pork was super dry and seemed to have been cooked two days before. Salad was... well... a lot of lettuce and two small cherry tomatoes. Bring your own lunch. Much safer.

You know the one thing that I don't like about Yelp, they won't let you give an establishment no stars... This may be the worst place on the planet for food, service, dining, experience, etc. The lines were HUGE!! I believe I could have got better food from the Schwann's Man! I had the Barbecue Chicken Sandwich for $10, I fed 6 people for around $85 and paid for sub-par crap! No one spoke English! Avoid at all costs!

I was pleasantly surprised with my hamburger and salad, and the prices aren't really that bad. Places like this, where there is a captive audience with no other choice for a hot meal, can sometimes be an expensive pile of "meh." But here, the hamburger was of decent quality, juicy and cooked just right, better than typical fast-food-type patties, plain-ish toasted bun, fresh lettuce and tomato, condiment packets on the side. The side salad was of the pre-packaged type, but of acceptable quality. I would go again.

Eh, the prices were ok. For my family of 5, it costs $47. Average. The food was definitely "cafeteria" food. Average. The chicken teriyaki bowl was blah, the chicken was super dry. The salads were the best part. Big portions. I wish we would have known that the salad dressing was in the actual dining area , so we wouldn't have spend so much time looking for it. Overall, we were hungry, so it was ok. I'll bring my own food in next time.

We were on our own for lunch during a visit to Old Faithful [during a recent trip to the National Parks] while waiting for Old Faithful to do its thing. We were directed by the tour guide to the Old Faithful Lodge Cafeteria and Bakery. It is a large space and the offerings included sandwiches, hot food, beverages and desserts. There was plenty of room to sit in groups and it was reasonably priced. I ended up getting a chicken pesto wrap and an iced tea.it is worth a visit if for no other reason but to get a cup of coffee and to sit down for a while to get off your feet. I would recommend.

I know I shouldn't really expect much out of a national park in terms of food but the food here was pretty bad. I got a ham, egg, and cheese biscuit with an iced coffee. I saw them slap it in the microwave and thought, "oh no," but I didn't expect the egg to be watery. That really threw me off. The iced coffee was alot better but nothing to brag about.

Nice lodge and great place to get good food. Had a tasty meatloaf lunch while watching Old Faithful. Makes for a good afternoon in an amazing National Park. Yellowstone is fantastic.

The best croissant sandwich I've ever had was at Red Robin...the second was at the bottom of the Haleakala Crater in Maui...and the third was at the cafeteria of the Old Faithful Lodge in Yellowstone. WOW! And Old Faithful wasn't bad either.

I don't know about you, but with me the word "cafeteria" rarely inspires culinary expectation. Yet... And yet... While everything else may have been pretty bland, one might even use the term "whitebread"...it was at this lovely cafeteria that I encountered the BEST meatloaf I've ever had. My salad may have featured croutons from an individual packet. My mashed potatoes struck me as a bit reconstituted. But the meatloaf lives on in my memory. Oh? Did I forget to mentioned the view out the window? I got to see Old Faithful erupt while I ate. If you go to Yellowstone, do not skip the meatloaf (:

This is a tough call because these two facilities are lumped together by Yelp and Xanterra. The cafeteria. I ate there one time, my first night in Yellowstone in September 2013. The food was fine, but the girl making my buffalo chicken sub took forever to assemble it because she ran out of chicken. The new chicken came out of a hot box and appeared to have been sitting a while...but I did not get sick and it ended up tasting good. There were flies EVERYWHERE in the serving area, but oddly not in the dining area. The view from the dining area was quite nice and the prices were fair, but the hygiene needed work. The bake shop. Much better. They have a selection of baked goods like pretzels and cookies, along with iced cream. The pretzel was kept cold and had to be heated up, but it was pretty good. The cookies were actually very good. If the bake shop were reviewed independently, it would merit a 4/5 or even 5/5, but I cannot in good conscience give that high a rating to the cafeteria, mainly due to the flies. I didn't eat there twice. Personally, I'd go to the bake shop for snacks, but stick to the Snow Lodge Grill for quick meals.

This is certainly cheaper than the Old Faithful Inn which is a plus and it has a cozy fireplace or Old Faithful porch views. The food wasn't great. My husband had the special- the buffalo sloppy joes, which were literally the worst sloppy joes I have ever eaten. I refused to eat more than the bite offered to me- it was really terrible. My buffalo meatloaf was edible but not good and the sides (stuffing- yuck! and mashed potatoes/ gravy-meh)were not great either. We sat by the fireplace which was nice. It was pretty empty when we went in mid to late September. There is a bakery open for breakfast and an ice cream shop as well. Prices were okay (about $10- 12ish) but not great considering the portions and taste. Staff was fine but not overly amazing. We stayed at the lodge so it was the most convenient food option.

The worst there is! Sign board said sandwiches available all day but only had roast beef left. Iced coffee consisted of watery hot coffee being poured over ice. Creamer to try and make it somewhat flavorful was empty. No employee seemed to care at all.

Quick lunch here. Grab and go spinach salad. Pretty good for pre-packaged grub. I would get it again. Recommended and will return again.

If this was on view alone, it would be a five for sure! Basic foods; not a lot of options, and very limited healthy, clean food options. However, well located to grab a quick bite in the midst of your Yellowstone touring, and particularly a great spot to grab a quick bite while sitting outside to make sure you do not miss the show. (Old Faithful in case you were not following the obvious thread...)

It was alright - if they were out of stuff, you had to wait forever. I had a beef sub with peppers and it was just ok - I ended up adding a lot of hot sauce. The seating was good though - very big and lodge-y. It's cheaper than the dining rooms so that's a plus. But overall, your typical mountain cafeteria food.

The food selection was wide, portions generous and prices very reasonable. And it even tasted good.

got there at about 2:10 when the old faithful will start in about 20 minutes. dinning room stop sitting at 2: 30pm so no other choice. pricy deli and for the price they charge I expect better quality. $30 for couple of cold sandwich , mix fruit and water. eat first or bring your own food and eat at the observation deck.

I was surprised at the quality of food at a National Park cafeteria. I had the Bison chili and it was very good, my friend tried the Bison meatloaf and he enjoyed it.

Food was just average cafeteria fare but very expensive. Kids hot dog and chips $8.00. Also long lines just made the whole experience worse.

Stayed at the Old Faithful Snow Lodge--really loved it. Location was great, very friendly restaurant staff and cleaning crew, though the front desk was a little slow. Rooms are expensive, but really worth it--very comfortable, very clean, really enjoyed my stay.

The food at my school cafeteria was a five star meal compared to this. The veggies were straight from a can and the trout was awful. I can't even imagine how you can screw up a roll, but they managed to do that also. If you do not have taste buds or care what you eat then this is the place for you. Otherwise go to the grill and get a burger, they do a decent job there.

I think this is a far better option than the restaurant near the lodge: less expensive and tastes better. Plus, the employees who work in the cafeteria were super friendly :) I had the trout amandine, which was tasty (and the side of carrots, which was not so tasty). Also: try the Teton Ale! Then you can dine while watching Old Faithful do her thing. Enjoy!

Food was not very good here. I had the steak sandwich and chili. The chili was ok. The sandwich was horrible. I spent the next 3 hours wishing I had skipped lunch. The staff was friendly.
