    Very popular location. We showed up right at lunch rush on a Sunday, and the place was packed. We still only had to wait about 10 minutes before seating. FOOD: Well done burgers and sandwiches. Great pie! SERVICE: Prompt, if a bit rushed. ATMOSPHERE: Sitting at tables, lots of bottles and shakers and utensil bags and creamer bowls taking up a lot of space. The room is ... homey and rustic, to be polite, though there's a lot of space for swag you can buy. A lot of flies.

    While visiting Grand Tetons NP we wanted to try some good eats in the area. We were in Dubois visiting the National Military Vehicles Museum (great place and huge) and looking at the great reviews picked this place. It's a very small place but we got a table immediately since it was early. Ordered the bison steak and burger. Both were really good. The burger was my favorite. Very tender and juicy. Of course we had to get some of their homemade pies. They were also huge and delicious. Service was good. A little short handed so I felt it could've been more attention to guests. But over all we would come back again if ever in the area. Sat next to some fisherman and had great conversation with them which made the experience priceless.

    Coffee!  Yay!

    We were on our way to Moran Wyoming and desperately needed coffee and something to eat. I found the Cowboy Cafe on Yelp and we weren't disappointed. The little place was packed and Molly welcomed us and brought us coffee. Dave and I had the Sheridan Palace Omelettes with Green Chili. Dave had Elk Sausage in his and I had Ham. They were plentiful with hash browns and toast. A respite along a mostly empty highway! Thank you Molly and crew! Now onward and upward into the snow!

    Purchased a coffee mug because I really enjoyed this restaurant

    The food was absolutely delicious and only wish we had one in MO. Highly recommend stopping by for breakfast.

    Daily homemade pie flavors

    What a PERFECT stop for dinner on our roadtrip to Grand Teton National Park! C.C. had something for everything - sandwiches, burgers, salads and our #1 tip: you HAVE to try the homemade pie!!! *KIDS* -- Our three kids didn't need a full adult meal - they had great $6 and $7 options with single or double corn dogs and fries, chicken tenders, etc. They're not marked as kids meals, but they're listed under the "Sandwiches & More". *HEALTHY FOOD LOVERS* -- check out their salads! Grilled peaches (reliably delicious since they grill them from frozen) and heirloom tomatoes with burrata (Burrata is an Italian cheese made from mozzarella and cream, and is sometimes called "cream filled mozzarella"), pesto and balsamic glaze on a bed of sprouts and spring mix greens. (Olives on the side please...) WHAT a find! Loved it! Let's talk PIES! Just a few of their flavors (they had run out of other flavors earlier in the day): - strawberry rhubarb - raspberry rhubarb - peach raspberry - strawberry blueberry - Nutella pecan - apple - peach - pecan - white chocolate blueberry cheesecake - turtle cheesecake Do you see what I mean????? Try the pie!! Btw - service was AWESOME. Helpful, kind, understanding to our requests, etc. If we're driving through again, we'll be back!!

    By far the best breakfast in Wyoming. Went to Thermopolis, not very good breakfast there, here amazing breakfast. Burrata Breakfast Panini. I'll eat that all day.

    Boysenberry pie warmed with ice cream
    Jeannie B.

    Very friendly staff. Raw wood decor with cowboy upholstered booths. The buratta burger was string cheesy delicious with bacon as a bonus. The local brewery beer came with an ice chilled mug to help cool off on a hot day. You can't leave without getting a slice of homemade pie (or two). The boysenberry warmed with two scoops of ice cream topped off a great meal. I couldn't resist getting the Blueberry Almond Crunch to go. Looks like a good choice.

    Ribs and wings
    Jacqueline C.

    Excellent service, great food. We love the wings appetizer. Barbecue ribs is off the bone (the sauce a little too sweet to my liking) but overall it's good traditional food. Definitely swing by here on the way to YS/Grand Teton!

    Cowboy cafe at night.

    Bold menu for a small cafe in a small town. Surprising the food was good. So don't judge it based on the initial walk in. The town is a small mountain town...ok. I gave it a four for a couple reasons only, not for the flavor, service, or vibe. I gave a 4 because the portions were a bit wanting, the presentation was "meh", and I ordered the Carnitas, potato, cheesey thing which turned out to be a diced up pork chop, fried potatoes and cheddar with a few Jalapeños all slathered in BBQ sauce. It wasn't what I was expecting but I would order it again....after I tried other things on the menu. So yes, you need to go to the Cowboy Cafe. Just keep in mind you're not in a big city.

    In my opinion the pies are nothing special as stated in the reviews I've read. Our burgers were good but it is overpriced for what you get.

Food was served hot and fast! I can't say enough how friendly the staff were! The show featured the Triple C band!!! And THEY WERE AMAZING! I enjoy country music but I'm not a die-heart fan and even I enjoyed every song they played! And they were hilarious and really gave the audience a great show!! After each member was introduced they would play a song that highlighted that band member's talent and boy - THEY WERE INCREDIBLY TALENTED! they had us on our feet dancing and rocking! It was super fun! And they were also on time! I came on my first night in town so I was tired... they started on time and they finished on time! So I felt like they really respected my time and my energy! Will definitely recommend to others!

As for the food -- it was okay. But I don't think you really come here for the food. I wanted something different, something I couldn't get back home, so I ordered the Mount Moran pizza. It had mozzarella, garlic cream sauce, pine nuts, chicken, spinach and tomatoes. It was for sure something different but I did not throughly enjoyed it. I think the pine nuts gave it a weird taste. However, there are many other pizza options and pasta too. 4 stars -- good service and stunning views.

The first one is right by the highway in the front which is a bar. The pizza and pasta also was a bar is in the back of the parking lot. Very busy and chaotic. I didn't know where the menus were but I stood in line to order. We were not hungry but wanted to see what the rave was about. So ordered the teton snd a bowl of tomatoe soup. The pizza was such a disappointment. We waited over 30 mins for our food. The pizza got to us cold and dry. Even my kids says that it tasted like school pizza. We are from NYC and our school lunch is NOT good. $19 for pizza that tasted like reheat flatbread. On the other hand we enjoyed the tomatoe soup. It was flavorful and a bit spicy. We used the soup to drip the pizza in. Lol Perhaps they have doegotten our order and the got cold? Our whole order was $26. Dornan, this is not acceptable. One star for the tomatoe soup. Service and pizza was not good.

Starting first with the food: I am a foodie who has eaten out a LOT and I can honestly say I had the best wings, grilled cheese, & tomato soup of my life! The sandwich bread was perfectly flavorful and toasted crunchy, & the cheese was gooey & wonderful. The tomato soup was the perfect flavor, not plain but not spicy, just right. The wings were hot and crunchy on the outside, juicy inside, and had a nice sauce. Also loved their Brussels sprouts. We did not think prices were too high either for being in Jackson. Service was wonderful too. We had the nicest server who was attentive and kept our drinks full and checked on us when needed. Ambiance: Of course the view is so cool! Doesn't matter what time of year, even with ski season being over, we enjoyed the view of the snow melting off Snow King. The restaurant has so many different seating options like bar seating, small tables, big tables, and the outdoor patio is so cool! It's huge and they have heaters out there too. Inside is so bright and cheerful with the huge floor to ceiling windows. Not a bad seat in the whole place. Beer: Yummy! So many different types to try, nice selection. We liked everything we tried.

I mentioned this to server and she said she would check with kitchen. Mom got the wedge, which she loved. I went for meatloaf and my mom went for ribeye steak as mains. My meatloaf was okay. I did like the ancho chili glaze, tasty! My mom's expensive ribeye was badly overcooked. She ordered medium rare and got medium well on the well side. She simply ate a little and took the rest home for the dog. Expensive dogfood. Service was slow and after I asked about Brussel sprouts, pretty invisible. Never got an answer on them. We left before dessert and just got ourselves ice cream cones at corner instead. Our $12 spent there at I scream was best culinary investment of the night. Overall, no excuses for slow or absent service on weeknight early. App was either half on floor or messy and WAY overpriced for three sprouts. Steak was cooked badly. I would not repeat this expensive experiment. We spend a couple weeks near Lander each summer. Sure liked its food scene better when it was just a cowtown.
