No gas, but they'll give you directions to the nearest gas stations (20-some miles north or 75 miles south). We stopped here on a Sunday afternoon on a road trip, and since it's the only food in town we couldn't afford to be picky. With one vegetarian, one gluten allergy, and one hungry teenaged boy, we weren't sure we'd all get fed at one place. We were in for a nice surprise! My daughter is a vegetarian, and she had a grilled cheese with fries so good she refused to spoil them with ketchup. My son had enough to eat and then some. I ordered the Orteg burger with no bun, and holy cow was that a good burger. We'll be timing our trip out of Nevada to land there for lunch! Service was friendly and no-nonsense. The air conditioning was out, so when we ordered iced tea to start, she just gave us the whole pitcher. Seemed like a fair trade! read more

we're heading to oregon and this was the only business within miles of every direction and we stopped because we had to poop really bad. the bathrooms were okay, could be a little cleaner. after i cleaned out my system, i was ready for some food. i talked to a very annoying and incompetent girl and she referred me to the owner who was capable of taking my order. i got 3 eggs and grilled chicken with peppers and onions. it took at least 30 minutes. now i don't know what type of lubrication they use on their peppers, but it was much too slippery. it went shooting off of my plate when i went to cut it. (photo attached) eggs and chicken is what was expected. also, while eating my meal, i was assaulted by a billy goat who chomped a hole in my shirt and tried to steal my smoothie. they need to control the neighborhood thugs. i wasn't aware that i was in the south bronx where thugs assault you and try to take your food. FYI, they are trump supporters. read more

Denio Junction - the lubricated pepper - Cafes Near Me - Denio, Nevada

See all

My husband and I were on a road trip to visit family in Oregon. We stopped at a little family owned and operated cafe/bar yesterday. The atmosphere was friendly and warm. We were directed to sit wherever we wanted to. Upon sitting were were greeting by a lovely little girl, who introduced herself as Hazel. The food was awesome and well priced for the amount given. The service was wonderful and had the extra ray added benefit of Hazel. She handed out menues, cleared our table and even shared a few jokes with us. The whole experience was heartwarming. I would recommend this restaurant to those of you traveling on highway 140 in Nevada. Please stop by and grab a bite to eat and a cold drink. If you are lucky, you will also meet Hazel.

Service was a little slow, but it was great food and a much needed break from driving.

We stopped her to get snacks and take a short break. My sweetie went in tp buy snacks and I took our dog out for a quick leg stretch. Two other dogs that were roaming around (residents there I assume) came over to check out our dog. They sniffed each other and I pet one of the dogs, a border collie. The dogs walked away, and We were walking around in the area beyond the gas pumps and the side of the store near the parking area . A woman came out of the store, I assume the owner, and started gripe to me that this was considered their front yard and she didn't like me out there with my dog! I told her that I always clean up after my dog (and she was on leash the whole time) yet she still kept it up about she didn't like that I was there in "her yard" with my dog. My sweetie came out of the store and told her "we are leaving " and she finally retreated to the store. My dog never even peed. This was uncalled for. We will never return! Nothing was posted. She was just cranky., for no apparently reason. read more

The burgers were awesome.... a hidden secret for sure! You better stop because a there's nothing before or after for about 80mi. Several people passing through came in and ordered shakes so thought I better get one to go.... I got an Oreo shake mmmmm it was delicious! read more

What a quaint little place with a little of everything. Food, drinks, t-shirts and local wares. The bar area is stocked with popular hard drinks. There is an Internet juke box and their payment is via Square. Coffee was great and so was food: Veggie omelet made with real eggs and a Famous Denio burger was greatly enjoyed. Clean restrooms. Pay inside first if you need gas. read more

Denio Junction - Denio's - Cafes Near Me - Denio, Nevada

I hiked the 750 mile Oregon Desert Trail. We stopped in a number of towns along the way and Denio Junction had by far the best hamburger! I was expecting good hamburgers in cattle country but only Denio Junction impressed me. They also served a good breakfast and made me an ice cream sundae when I asked. My advice is to eat hear and then drive up the road to Fields for a milkshake. read more

We actually spent the weekend here. Used it as a jumping off point for many adventures. Room was efficient. Staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. Ate breakfast every morning which had generous portions and great service. Stay was pleasant would stay again! Only thing that was not as convenient was the spotty WiFi but to be expected in such a rural area and in this day and age it was refreshing not to be in touch with the "world". Nice break from reality in Denio Junction. read more

Cindy and Georgina are wonderfully welcoming and caring not to mention great cooks. Thanks much for a memorable visit.

Surprisingly clean restaurant and restrooms, with very good hamburgers. Portions are very generous, cocktails and beer are available. There are a few local souvenirs, a number of taxidermy mounts, but primarily this place should be supported because there are no services for 50 miles in any direction. There is gasoline and diesel available. Penny was our cook and waitress, and made everything enjoyable, and provided accurate, local weather information. read more

I wasn't expecting a lot for $65/night, but at that price Denio Junction is highly overpriced. The latch on our door was hanging by a screw, the room was filled with flies, the air conditioner blew out warm air, they no longer sell gas and the restaurant is only open until 5 or 5:30pm so don't count on dinner. We weren't expecting luxury by any means, but a clean, safe room with a functional lock on the door shouldn't be too much to ask. Skip Denio Junction and go camping or go to Fields instead for clean lodging, good food and a gas fill up. read more

Came by here after a looooog, blizzard drive down 140, the sign said Open and there was someone sitting at the bar, but the door was locked. The person sitting there didn't budge or offer any advice/explanation. We ended up driving 25 miles out of our way to Fields Market. read more
