    Great Breakfast and Lunch location in Medora, been in existence for 44 years. Great Customer Service from Siri, she was so attentive and accommodating Food was excellent and filling. Loved the Biscuits and Gravy. we will return, "Cash Only"

    Caramel Roll

    Strolled in for lunch after visiting the parks. A very cozy, at home atmosphere. The man behind the counter eventually came around to speak to us; he told us stories about other guests, about the area. He was absolutely delightful and highlight of the trip. The food itself was tasty enough, but I'm afraid I'll be glancing over that for the star: The Caramel Roll. This thing was out of this world, and is honestly one of the best sweet treats I've ever had. I could not recommend this enough, and now know I will be dreaming and thinking of this for weeks. Five stars alone for the service and the roll, and five stars for the hope that I will one day be able to return and have another

    We loved this place so much we not only went there for breakfast, we went back for lunch. Super service, lots of character. Yes, they only accept cash

    Good breakfast: ham and scrambled eggs with slice of French toast rather than toast. Good service. Interesting walls with cowboy photos

    Belgium waffles, with whip cream and strawberries.

    This was the best place to eat! Excellent service. We had the French toast and bacon- the Belgium waffles with whip cream and strawberries. Amazing!!! We will definitely be back for lunch!

    Biscuits and gravy

    Absolutely HORRIBLE customer service! We informed the owner/manager that we didn't like, nor eat the biscuits and gravy and eggs. The gravy was brown and greasy, tasted like lard. It was terrible, tasted nothing like typical biscuits and gravy. The eggs were dry and overcooked with no flavor. Definitely not real, fresh eggs. Very nicely, I said that I didn't like the meal, I didn't eat it, and would like it taken off the bill. I was VERY RUDELY told that there was nothing wrong with the food and that we had to pay for it. Again, I calmly said that it was not good and asked about customer satisfaction. He angrily said it's the law and if we didn't pay for it, he'd call the POLICE! We have never been treated so badly by any restaurant before. There was no offer for anything else or a discount on the bill. STAY AWAY from this place. Do not support a business that treats their customers this way and humiliates them in front of the whole restaurant.

    Loved this small town breakfast spot in a small town western world! The walls are covered with cowboys of south western North Dakotah's past. If you are looking for a traditional breakfast while visiting the national park I highly suggest Cowboy Cafe!

    French Toast and Ham for breakfast in Medora ND

    Good breakfast with a pretty standard short order menu. Very busy on a Saturday morning with the sun shining and not everyone was a tourist. There were some locals in the queue with me getting their breakfast so it was busy. I had a simple enough French Toast with ham breakfast and it was tasty and filling. The French Toast was light and fluffy and tasty, soaking up an appropriate amount of syrup. The slice of ham was "city ham" and wasn't too salty at all. I had a great breakfast and it more than kept me going for driving through the park and then a good hundred miles of Interstate afterwards. It's nothing fancy, but who needs fancy when you really just want a good breakfast,

    Clean plate club. The stack in the back is from our caramel roll 'appetizers'.

    This cafe is absolutely fantastic! Do yourself a favor and start with a caramel roll.

    This place in inbetween some steak houses and I thought I would try it, walked in place was pretty…read moreempty but it was good the waitress greeted me and I sat down and ordered a drink, looked at the menu for a min and decided to order a western burger and some hot wings... hot wings came first and I was expecting them not to be really good but I was shocked they were amazing.. and then my burger came and it was big and looked amazing.. The food was amazing and the place was really nice and was nice and peaceful, for a really small town I was pretty shocked on the service and the food. I will definitely go back if I come back Into town

    Solid memories of my two stops in here while I was in town…read more The pizza here is locally famous, so I'd heard it about it from coworkers long before I got to town for work. Someone from a company we work with in the area had been in town for months and become a regular here, so my 2nd visit was even better. Grab a Cold Smoke Scotch Ale on tap for an excellent Montana-local beer on tap. Other good beers on tap are available if you want to stray from there. On my 1st visit, someone recommended the tenderloin steak tips, so I decided to save the famous pizza for the 2nd visit. Good call - the steak tips were solid. Wish I could remember what else I ordered. On 2nd visit (with regular leading the way), we went with the cheeseburger pizza, which sounded kinda weird, yet... gotta try something new, soooo... we did! And it was awesome. So good - never had anything like it before. Got cheese curds on the side, which were also stellar. Dined in both times, enhancing the piping hot and fresh experience vs taking something back to the room. Not sure if dining with a regular got me a 5-star experience or if it's always that awesome, but I've thought about this bar several times since I went... so that merits a solid review. I'll definitely be back when I'm back in town.
