The Stove

So I failed to take a picture of my Sierra morning skillet but I have to tell you it was incredible. More importantly the staff there are absolutely awesome people, so much so that even of the food was not awesome i'd go back just to visit. Rare gem with wonderful people. .....oh and the pies are just ridiculous.

If you want a tasty meal at good prices in Mammoth, this place won't disappoint. The atmosphere has a diner feel to it, so I wouldn't choose it for the atmosphere. Thw portions are excellent, too.

This place was great - reasonably priced food, plenty of options, and there's quick service even when they're busy. I got the chicken and waffles special and I really appreciated their homemade Sriracha honey - it was fantastic! Definitely a dish worth trying here. I wish there was less country music, but it's part of the restaurant's theme, so I won't knock them for it.

The food was good, but service was great! They kept coming to make sure our food was alright and if we needed anything else. Also refilled our coffee 2 times!

Came in for breakfast around 11 on a Sunday. 15 min wait. I got skillet and partner got CFS. Highly recommend Bull Mosa (Mimosa with Red Bull) especially since it comes with fresh squeezed oj. Food was great but the service was excellent!

Great and very efficient staff, hearty and comforting portions. Although the place looked busy and packed, wait time was only about 10min even though we were told 20-30, I was hungry and so thankful for that 🙌 my bf got the tuna melt but it was more like cold chunky tuna salad on a toasted bread vs the traditional warm tuna melt and unfortunately his melt came with gritty oversalted fries, he doesn't complain but I saw his face and tried them but it seems like a seldom mistake that sometimes occurs. I had the omelette and potatoes which were all divine. The Mac n cheese was delicious, overall a great experience, can't wait to try more items 🤗

The place is a bit small but still very nice. Probably best for smaller groups. The food was delicious and came out very fast . The server was great and attentive. Smile on them the whole time which was nice. The only reason for the 3 stars is the fact that we basically got kicked out because they wanted one of our tables for another group. Wasn't even 10 minutes after finishing our meals. So it wasn't as we were just sitting there for a long time not eating or drinking. Didn't even have the time to process or enjoy another cup of coffee. I've never been rushed out from a place to accommodate another group like that.

So glad we stopped here. Cutest little country house antique vibe place. The veggie omelet was delicious with house potatoes. Perfectly seasoned and flavorful with side biscuit for small extra charge. Wait wasn’t too long. Good service just know it’s typically a full house so don’t expect food out in a snap. Definitely check it out.

All the food her is amazing sampled form each persons plate. Everyone is super friendly and service was great and quick.

Always a great spot for breakfast. Ordered tuna on rye, huevos rancheros and a kids plate. Tuna was delicious and came with a heaping side of mac n chz. Huevos rancheros were delicious (tip: request fried serranos) and one kids plate happily fed both our kiddos. Service was great! Everybody was extremely friendly. Had kid menus for coloring which was appreciated.

Food is delicious with good portions. Mellow atmosphere and great for kids. Close to lots of places to stay and easy parking.

The Stove is always a must when visiting Mammoth! They are such a cute place! The food is so yummy They have a good selection of omelette, the regular is a two egg breakfast with choice of meat is always good along with their home potatoes! Don't forget the pancakes and Belgian waffles too! If you are really hungry you can order the Stove Special! They have outdoor seating as well! Love the inside home decor! They have good prime rib and homemade pies too!! Be sure to go early or in between times cuz it can get busy

This brunch and breakfast place is Gooood! The Prime Rib Hash is a bomb! It is savory and just the right amount of flavor. Sierra Sunrise is good too. It is rich in ham and other ingredients. Lychee Pie is good too! Staff are all warm and friendly, service is swift, place is cute, cozy, and neat. I recommend this place. It's worth your visit! 5/5

The food here is amazing. 10/10 ask for the Pie Flight. Thank you The Stove staff! We had outdoor seating and it was so nice to be in the sun!

If you're looking for homestyle meal and decor in Mammoth, look no further than the Stove Restaurant. The place has a cottage style decor that instantly makes you feel at home. We were promptly greeted and seated. We placed our orders which were served fast. We had: Country Fried Steak and two eggs. Served with stove potatoes Breakfast Burrito: eggs, bell pepper, onions & cheddar, served with potatoes, salsa & sour cream I requested for an additional order of bacon to my burrito. We loved the food, the service and the ambiance. I'll definitely be back the next time I visit Mammoth.

This is our go to place for breakfast every time we go to Mammoth. We're always seated right away. The inside has a very homey feels to it. Service is constantly good. And fast. Food is good. Heavy breakfast that's gonna energize you for the rest of the day

First time here and found them on yelp. I was craving banana pancakes so this place came up on my search. We were seated within 10 minutes. It's a small place so be patient. service was quick. I ordered the banana pancakes and was a little surprised when there was just a little pc of banana on top of my pancakes. But the surprise was as when I took a bite and the bananas were inside and it was so good! I ordered 2 and honestly they were pretty large and I could have just had only 1. I also had crispy bacon and I was cooked to perfection. My friend ore tee the country fried steak and he said it was really good! Prices were very reasonable.

This is a Mammoth staple and a must try! We ordered the Huevos Rancheros with Potatoes (rather than beans). It was absolutely delicious! The service is also great and helps make for a great experience. Make sure to stop by here on your next visit to Mammoth.

Driven past this place many times but finally got to try it. Came for brunch around 11 am. Luckily the line was short and we got seated immediately. It's a cute little place with various breakfast and lunch choices. Got the chicken fried steak with home style potatoes. It was a decent portion for the price. The chicken fried steak was fried well and the gravy was good. Loved the crispy potatoes! My friend got a veggie omelette with gluten free bread which she enjoyed. It's nice they have tons of vegetarian and gluten free options. We would return

This landmark breakfast spot is popular but just not my thing The menu is a typical breakfast menu. I had a western omelette but so much cheese on top it was just oily and the eggs with Ortega had no flavor. The potatoes were good. Coffee was a bit watered down. My wife had a skillet which looked good. There are good options for pancakes even a prime rib and half. Parking on side free we did need to wait about 20 minutes to be seated. Service was good and the dining room is basic.

I was in town for the weekend and found this place on Yelp, it was only a five minute walk from my Airbnb and was one of the few places opened at 6am! There's plenty of parking & seating. I was greeted right away and was told to sit wherever I liked. As soon I was seated, someone came by to take my drink order! I love chorizo and settled for the chorizo skillet while my friend got the prime steak hash I believe that's what it's called. Both were delicious and the customer service was impeccable! Would definitely come back the next time I'm in town!

A couple of days ago my wife and I were in this place, we came to visit Mammoth, they had recommended this place to me, for me the food is not so spectacular, the price is a little high, the portions do not include toasted bread, it is extra, for that reason I give it two stars.

This is the second restaurant we tried in Mammoth and we are so glad we did. Excellent service, friendly staff and big smiles. We were seated right away. They have several hot tea options and a super huge plus is they have oat milk which I was able to use in my tea so I was very happy. I love pancakes and there pancakes were really good. I'm not into all those flavors, just like buttermilk and they melted in my mouth. They bring out the syrup nice and warm without us having to ask. Here is the best part. They made our food exactly how we asked. Bacon was crispy, pancakes were golden, they removed the cantalope from my fruit (watermelon, strawberries, banana and blueberries) since they knew I wasn't a big fan and they made the eggs scrambled well on the Sierra Sunrise. My teens also said the apple and pineapple juice tasted great. The only thing I would change is to add just a little more cheese on the Sierra Sunrise and get harder blueberries. We also saw waffles come out that looked delish along with burgers and fries. This place is a must if you're in the area. Absolutely will be back.

The food was great with very generous portions and the service was wonderful. Can't recommend a place more for your next stop in Mammoth!

Came out of the hills after a couple day backpack trip and plopped ourselves here for a fresh cooked meal that wasn't freeze dried and reheated in a bag. Yeah, we were hungry for real food, but this is good real food. Potions are very large, and while I am not sure I would want to get in a full day of skiing/biking/hiking after eating breakfast here, I could certainly see myself handing out on a sun deck like a beached walrus. If you want big portions of traditional, county style breakfast, here is your spot.

We typically go to a local bakery for a quicker breakfast when we are in Mammoth because we are usually on our way to ski. We were in town for a Babymoon this time and wanted a sit-down restaurant for brunch, and everything I read online was pointing towards The Stove! I heard they do not take reservations and there's usually a wait. Figured it was worth a shot since we are still in the shoulder season before skiing starts and the town isn't too busy. We came around 10:30am on a Saturday and were seated right when we walked in! You can tell they have been in business for a long time because they operate like a well-oiled machine here. They are so well-staffed which is hard to find these days; it felt like we had several friendly staff coming around to refill coffee/water and check on us throughout our time there. The interior feels very homey and like you are at a family member's house for some traditional comfort food. They have a wide selection of brunch options to choose from. I went with the Stove Special (2 eggs with choice of meat and choice of pancake/waffle/french toast) and my husband got the country fried steak (came with 2 eggs and a biscuit). Everything we had was phenomenal! The bacon was extra crispy and I got at least 4-5 pieces. The french toast was some of the best I've had in a long time: cinnamon swirl bread, thick, soft. My husband loved his meal as well. It came with plenty of gravy and you could tell the country fried steak was hand-breaded. Even the biscuit was better than just your average biscuit! It was large, buttery, and came with such yummy jam. I noticed they had full-size pies and mini pies right when we walked in, they have some in a display case up front. So of course we had to get one of those! We went with the peach mini pie and had it for dessert later that night. It was divine--a peach filling that had real peach slices and a thick glaze plus some sugar crystals embedded in the pie crust. Prices were affordable, especially for the quality and quantity of the food you get. Food came out within about 20 minutes. Service was excellent. No wonder this place is a staple in Mammoth, especially for brunch. We will definitely be back!

Stopped by this place because of the outside decor tbh. And thank goodness we did. We had a big group and they were very accommodating! We all did the mimosas pitchers! And I took forever to decide on food because everything sounded so good! I ended up with the Sierra Sunrise.. great choice. The server was amazing especially with how many people we had. They sell stickers and coffee mugs! I got both, this place is so cute inside, you feel like you are at home!!

So good! We ordered sausage links, biscuits and gravy, blueberry pancakes, and a breakfast burrito -- the food here feels like the warm hug of breakfast comfort food and made just the way it should be. The highlight was definitely the blueberry pancake and the biscuits which comes with a healthy (or should I say not so healthy hehe) sized cup of gravy. The burrito has a lot of egg and was tasty, too! Did I mention the servers are so attentive and courteous? You really feel like you're being taken care of - five stars!

The food is hearty and filling. The service is quick and friendly. The ambiance is homey and rustic with items from times of old. You come here for the pies and fried zucchini sticks. You stay for the Red Bull mimosas. Drink with caution if you plan to hit the slopes after.

This is the BEST.... repeat... BEST breakfast restaurant in Mammoth. The food is plentiful, served hot, and perfect.... Omelettes are moist and filled with goodies, including plenty of cheese. Their salsa is divine. Service is fast and efficient. Highly, highly recommend.

Decided to come here because of all of the positive reviews and to try one of their fresh pies. Walked in on a Saturday around 11am and did not have to wait at all. That was a big surprised since this was a holiday weekend. Anyways, I decided to order the smothered pork chops. I waited between, 5-10 minutes for the food to come out and and saw how thin the pork chop was. It was probably a 1/4" thick. I thought, ok, there must be another piece underneath buried under the gravy. NOPE!!! the one piece was all I got. To make things worse, it was also a bit dry and the hash brown I got were mostly burnt pieces. Overall, I don't think it was worth $20 for what I got. I don't mind paying that price for good food, but this was not good food. It was just food. I will give this place another shot in the future because I know what I got is not a breakfast item and probably not what they are known for. I did like the mini peach pie though. The crust was crispy with sugar crystals on top. Even with the added sugar sprinkles, the pie was not overly sweet.

Pretty solid little spot we traveled up to. The wait was pretty long but that's functionally every touristy place in Mammoth. The food was all pretty good and I'd come back again. It's just really busy and *feels* busy, if I had to ding it for anything. Between 8 people and a gratuity it ended up being 302.50 for entrees, coffee, and a carafe of mimosas. Again, not bad!

Service was bad. Took an hour to get our food and only half of it showed up. It was 5 mins later that the rest showed up and some was cold. Very disappointed.

Delicious breakfast spot in Mammoth. The dishes are big enough to share. There seems to be always a wait. But it's worth it. Be aware that they do close at 2 o'clock, at least in the summertime.

The funny thing is how amazing Mogul's customer service was compared to The Stove's stuck up/"woke up on the wrong side of the bed" sigma mindset. I never leave bad reviews but it's hilarious how bad the service and steak were. Ordered a rare while my buddy ordered a medium rare. You can probably guess but mine was way over done while my buddy's had a little bit of pink. I mentioned this to the waiter and he insisted my grey steak was rare. He was pissed. When he brought the steak out, he just plopped the dish on my table and walked away. Last cherry on top was when we all had our cards out to pay, he stealthily grabbed mine without asking then made me pay for all. The pancakes were fine.

First time to this place, ordered breakfast. Comfortable seating, has parking but we were there for food, which was sadly, NOT great. Not impressed. Thanks.

I love this place, and have come both times I have visited Mammoth! The French Toast is so cozy, and i luv the mountain vibes and friendly service!! Very convenient super charging station to The Stove as well! Will return for the third time soon!

The BEST breakfast I've had in a long time. Everyone was so incredibly friendly and welcoming. Cute environment and great prices. My cinnamon French toast was the best I've ever had. Truly obsessed and cannot wait to come back! Also can't wait for it to be dog friendly!

Are you in the mood for some home style cooking before you hit the slopes and trails at Mammoth Lakes? Well look no further than The Stove Country Cooking. They specialize in breakfast/brunch and has a unique creation that I haven't seen before: Prime Rib Hash, which is their take on the traditional corned beef hash. Arriving there at 10am in October and the line was out the door. I stressed this before everyone knows that Mammoth isn't too busy before the snow falls. So for the line to be out the door during the slow season means that their food must be on point. We waited for about twenty minutes but it wasn't bad since I got to browse the menu and take in the decor. The restaurant is designed like an old mom and pop diner which adds to the country cooking feel. They have an old stove in the lobby as well as a display case to show off their famous pies. After being seated we put in an order for their Prime Rib hash and a southern skillet with eggs made over easy. For drinks they have hot chocolate, teas, and soft drinks. I just opted for their coffee. We also put in an order for their mini peach pie. The food came out quick and didn't disappoint. The prime rib hash is definitely unique. It did remind me of a corn beef hash and the souther scramble was flavorful. The star was actually the pie. The cutie pie (mini version of their full pie) was the perfect amount to get my sweet tooth satisfied. After all I can't get too much sugar before I hit the trails. Overall it was a great experience and the food was definitely spot on to what I was expecting. If you are debating whether to get a pie I highly recommend getting a cutie pie.

This place is wonderful! Went for the first time for breakfast and came back again the next day. The menu has so many delicious options. The French toast with cinnamon swirl is so yummy. Their homemade granola with fruit and yogurt was so comfy in the cold weather. Service was excellent and so fast. We also ate lunch and enjoyed a patty melt - not greasy at all! And homemade fried zucchini. Was once again and great experience. Highly recommended

Just good southern cooking. Girls had a blast. Highly recommended. Pancakes are bomb.

The best brunch place in Mammoth. Busy, but didn't wait too long Service A+ The prime rib hash highly recommended

It closes early. The ambiance and food were okay, and the servers were nice. Maybe I'll try again next time I visit the mammoth.

First-time customer at this place. I came here with some friends based on the great reviews. What we weren't expecting was such awful service. The host had a terrible attitude and lacked communication skills. We were a party of eight, and two of us were smoking outside. The host refused to seat us until we were all standing in front of her, claiming that people had lied to her before about the number of guests. We explained the situation, but she still refused to seat us. We decided to wait until everyone was finished, and when we finally walked inside the restaurant, I informed her that we were now complete--there were eight of us. While we were walking in, based on the layout of the stairs and entrance, she asked me not once but three times, "Are they here?" I responded, "Yes, there are eight of us," but she kept asking, "Are they here?" with an extremely unprofessional attitude. I confirmed again, "Yes." When she finally brought us to our table, she said something to the waiter right in front of us. To end this story, we were served by another waiter who provided us with proper service--polite and professional. By the time we finished eating, the host came to our table and handed us the bill without asking if we were done or if we had requested it. The food was good, and the portions were very generous. However, I would never return to a place that has no idea how to treat its customers. I could even say that because we weren't locals, we were mistreated without any logical reason. One of our friends, after seeing the host's attitude, wanted to leave, but we insisted on giving them a chance (I was one of those who insisted). Never again. Hope your experience is different and better than mine. :)

Stove has been a staple spot for me for years of coming up to mammoth every month for work. Their breakfast is always spot on. Their lunch is also good. Recommend the cinnamon French toast, waffle, B.L.A.T sandwich, my coworker swears by the tuna melt, breakfast burrito pretty good as well and some of the small pies are delicious. Service is always quick, sometimes it can get really busy so it can be loud at times. I try to go before the rushes. Will continue to keep coming back.

This pie shop is incredible, the best I've ever had. The crust is perfectly flaky, and the fillings are full of flavor. Great variety and quality. Definitely worth trying!

Ate here before figuring out the shuttle system to get up to Mammoth for some snowmobiling. Nice open restaurant, and smelled good upon entering. No wait for the two bathrooms, always nice. Ordered our breakfast, waitress was pleasant and efficient and the food came out quickly to order. We devoured everything! I don't recall the names off everything we ordered, but they were typical breakfast items that taste better than average. Loved the biscuit, too. No effort spared. Would be happy to eat here again when in Mammoth.

It's the off season so it's not super busy but still a great time to visit. The wait was short, and service was quick. The restaurant is small but definitely family friendly. Tables are great for large parties, seating 6-8 adults comfortably in a booth. Most importantly, the food is great.

Went to the stove for breakfast with my other 3 friends. For the most part, everything was fine. 2 of the 4 ordered burritos. I ordered one of the 2, both burritos were overcooked, and the eggs were dry. I asked the what staff for extra honey for our coffee, but it never came. First, am I supposed to tell the wait staff to ask the chef not to overcook the eggs in the burritos? And am I supposed to remind you or ask the wait staff again for more honey? I would have left more tips, but I gave what was appropriate. I would go back, but I will pass on the burritos.

This place was just meh. The food was mediocre and your typical diner food. The menu offerings were a page long and not too extensive. It was a little too greasy for my taste. I was expecting something more wholesome. The service was not great but not terrible. Not worth the price. Will not be returning, sadly.

Cute, homey, old country deco creates a comfortable ambiance for some real comfort food. Short wait of about 10min on a summer weekend. Kind and very efficient service. Yummy food!

Cutest breakfast spot! The best seats are truly next to the window with the views of them icicles. Service is pretty fast and attentive plus the food comes out just right. My favorite has always been the pork chop but the country fry is pretty good too. Always got to get a side of French Toast for the sweet tooth!!

Group of 4. Service and food was very friendly and fast!! Food was spectacular, huge portions and it was all really good!!!

A cute neighborhood restaurant. Indoor seating only. We came to check out The Stove around lunch time on a weekday, and it was reasonably busy. Most customers seemed to be local. The menu offers a decent selection of breakfast and lunch items, with a number of sandwich options. The waitress recommended the prime rib hash (and said that the prime rib French dip was similar). We ordered Sierra Sunrise, prime rib French dip, and cinnamon swirl French toast. The portion sizes are generous - the house salad is not just a few pieces of greens but a full plate. The prime rib French dip was delicious but the bread wasn't as airy as I had expected and didn't soak up a lot of soup. Everything else was solid. They also had a large selection of whole and personal pies! They do charge a 15% surcharge for to-go orders though. They use fresh fruits when they are in season, but unfortunately everything is made with canned fruit in the winter. Peach pie was the popular choice but we found it lacking in texture, flavor, and artisanship. It felt like canned peach on top of store-bought pastry sheets.

A breakfast spot we return to time and time again. The food and service is always consistent and delicious. We got the western omelette, pancakes, The Stove Special, which is 2 eggs any way you like it, side of meat, your choice, and short stack of pancakes. The servings are very generous, lumberjack style, lots of food. Best pancakes I've ever had! Delicious!!! Ambiance is that of your typical country kitchen. Comfortable, homey and charming with a sweet aroma of buttermilk. There are many breakfast spots to choose from in Mammoth but this one, by far, is the best. Highly recommend!

Insanely great breakfast here. Dare I say these may be some of the best pancakes I've ever had in my life, the perfect mix of cooked and doughy. Getting the real maple syrup is definitely worth it, too. It gets busy really quickly, but we showed up at 7am and got a table with no issues. Go here!
