Tuolumne Meadows Grill

I love this place, the potato wedges are so dang good! I recommend dipping them in the soft serve. The burgers are not the best, frozen patties that are cooked to death, but they hit the spot EVERY time when you've been in the woods over a week. Don't let a long line scare you off, they actually get through orders pretty fast. They have outdoor seating in more than one location, and there is a parking lot near the grill/market if the main lot is full (don't worry). They serve breakfast only until 11am, and start making burgers/softserve/wedges at 11:15am. No condiments are added to anything, you have to use the cups and pumps.

4 stars for the store; it's small but they have enough stuff for you to get by. 5 stars for the post office sandwiched between the store and the grill. It may be the smallest in existence but it processes a mountain of packages. Just ask postman Mike and he'll tell ya. 3 stars for the grill. The food is not the best but it gets the job done if you're hungry and you probably will be. Standouts are the veggie chili and the bacon and egg biscuit. Fries are good too. I haven't had the burger but I imagine it's pretty good because I've seen many others with burger in hand. Staff are always nice.

Love this place! Our favorites are soft serve ice cream and vegetarian chili. Burger and hotdogs taste great after a long hike or just eating by the side of the road enjoying the views. It was closed for a long time since Covid, I think.

Surprisingly decent tasting food for being in Yosemite. Gets busy in peak season. Long line, out the door, but moved very fast. All the employees were moving fast, especially the cooks. Credit card machine was very slow. Several picnic tables outside. General store next door. Very PCT hiker friendly area.

When you're hungry from hiking this the perfect place for some real food. The burger made fresh to order. Would definitely eat here again.

So glad they had a vegetarian option! The potato wedges and the veggie bean burger were so great! Glad to even find good food option up there.

Darn good burger and soft-serv for after a long day of hiking. Tip... grab a six pack from the store next door and kick it on the picnic bench.

Great considering the remoteness of the location. It’s counter service, no indoor dining tables, but serval outside. Staff were awesome!
