We travel through Bishop once or twice a year. We know the Schat's bakery gets all the love, but…read morethe Roadhouse?? Yes please!!! Hubby and I stopped in for a late lunch on our journey home after a quick trip to Disneyland the day prior. It's a long drive, so Bishop is about halfway to home. We don't like traveling with leftovers, so we often share a meal. Yesterday was the Bluey Armstrong burger with a side of the garlic Parmesan fries. The burger was great! Juicy, cooked to perfection, and so flavorful. But the fries? For the love of all that's good those fries sent me on a trip straight to heaven. I wouldn't say I'm a fry snob, but I do know what I like, and these were possibly the best garlic parm fries I've ever had. So much so that I told my hubby I'd recommend going on a 6 hour girls' trip just for the fries. (My gal pals and I do weird trips for stuff like this.) Long story short(ish) stop here for food. You will be saying "get in my belly" with the only regret that it isn't closer to your home. Unless you live in Bisho, in which case you are a lucky person.

Aaron Schat's Roadhouse came up as the best suggestion and it did not disappoint! It was only 11am but we started with 2 pints of Coor's lol. Then we ordered 2 Shot Gun burgers and beer battered fries. They were so delicious! The burger patty was freshly made and the bun was a cheese type bun from their bakery. The fries were so crispy. 1 basket of fries would have been enough to share but we ordered 2 not knowing and force fed ourselves to finish it all lol. We will definitely add this to our bishop stop on future trips!

We've had wine, the table bread with oil and vin, salads, pastas, and the minestrone soup. Everything has been quite tasty, and prices are totally reasonable. The ambiance is pretty good, and they get very busy in the evenings. After a day of hiking or outdoorsing (I made that word up just now) in the cold temps, a hearty pasta or a warm bowl of soup really hits the spot. We will definitely return on our future visits and stays in Bishop!

We shared a loft apartment (~$200 a night after taxes and fees). Very clean and comfortable, loved the in suite kitchen area, dining area, and in suite bathroom.

Highly recommend for folks who are coming to Bishop for outdoor activities and want a relaxing and comfy experience.

I'm so glad we stayed here. We were two adults and one child and stayed in a private family room with one bed and a bunk bed. The bunk beds have little curtains which our kiddo liked. I didn't totally trust that the barrier on the top bunk was high enough to prevent my kiddo from falling off so I had her sleep in the bottom bunk. The room was small but we knew that and it was enough space for three of us. We loved how it was decorated down to the individually wrapped towels in the bathroom. No TV which I also liked and forced us to hang out together! We were on the second floor and there were comfy rocking chairs on the deck where we sat at night and enjoyed our wine. We were able to borrow the wine glasses in the community kitchen which was very convenient. We also spent time on the couches outside the kitchen and the Adirondack chairs in the yard - just a lot of open places to hang out which was nice. The airstream store is super cute. We didn't get a chance to try their coffee but did buy one of the treats and also some gifts from the gift shop and played yard games in front. Schatt's bakery is next door which was a nice bonus and we grabbed breakfast there in the morning and brought it back. The entire property was clean and well maintained. Walking distance to the bowling alley where we went for a couple hours to play and also get a delicious steak (yes from the bowling alley cafe - no joke!). We'd definitely stay here again when passing through Bishop.

She is very patient, funny and smart. Already booked her for my next trip!

Beware....Fat shaming! Worst experience We called to book…read moreour ride and spoke to Theresa. She asked the weight and height of the riders. I told her our height and let her know we needed larger animals as we are bigger girls but did not exceed the 250 weight limit requirement. She assured me she had larger animals and it would be fine. I let her know where we were driving from and she said we were an hour and 1/2 away. Theresa called back after speaking with her manager, shortening our ride in half because the trail is up and down hill. She assured me that there was no issue with riding. After a long journey through the mountains, we arrived ready for a fun day riding. When we got there, Theresa looked at us and said our legs were not long enough. We were taken aback. Upon further questions and discussion it became clear that there was alternative reasoning. Even though we all fell under the weight restrictions, we LOOKED too heavy to ride, then later revealed that the owner was trying to sell and would have concerns. The conversation fell into an awkward silence. We were frustrated, disappointed, and upset. I even suggested not going on the trail just riding around camp but they insisted we could not ride the horses safely, apologized, and turned us away. Theresa went as far as to comment to my girls how hard it is to be too fat then offered us cookies! James overheard the conversation and suggested that we meet the horses. We brushed and pet them, which was very kind of him. I would not recommend taking the drive through the mountains for these folks. There were many alternative riding options in the area. I'd suggest taking your business to a place that's more organized, transparent, and kind.
