Server was very polite and helpful. I asked for crispy bacon. It was crispy, all right, like cinders in a fireplace...all the flavor cooked right out of it. Hash browns were also overcooked. In fairness, Anna loved her chicken fried steak and everything about her meal. Coffee was nothing to write home about, and they didn't have heavy whipping cream, but our very sweet server attempted to make up for that by bringing us some whipped cream. It isn't the same, but I appreciate her effort. We will probably be back (maybe not for breakfast) but this motivated us to try other local restaurants, for breakfast and other meals.

It's amazing! While we were going through, we decided to stop for lunch and stopped in at the Avenue Cafe. What a great experience! The food was great and the staff made us feel welcomed. When we arrived, we walked in the front door and found it packed. So packed, in fact, that we had to eat at their outside tables. We chose the fully outside table (versus under the cover) and found that it was a mistake...when it started raining on us. Trisha didn't even mind that we resat ourselves in the covered area. We will definitely stop there again even when we don't drive the Ave itself...the food and service was that good!

A clerk at a gift shop in Redcrest suggested this place for a bite to eat so we stopped here to get…read moresomething to-go. I felt like I needed to eat more greens so opted for the Greek salad. They were out of artichokes but gave us extra Kalamata olives. As I was waiting for my salad, I kinda wished I had gotten a pizza (they looked great! And you could see them being prepared right in front of you) but again, I could use the greens instead of more carbs and cheese so I waited until they brought my order. The interior is on the smaller side but there were also some tables outside. Definitely a place for both tourists and locals as the employees seemed to know a lot of the regulars by name. I ate my salad on the road and it was precisely what my body needed. Light and refreshing and the dressing and olives added a nice zest to the overall flavor. A full size portion was about $18, which is on the pricier side in my opinion but it tasted delicious and I bet the pizzas taste good too. If you find yourself in this area and in need of a bite to eat, definitely stop!

It has a great vibe, owner took out orders and you KNOW by the taste and food service how much love and thought goes into this place! We had: Grilled Chicken w/brie Bigfoot Burger Classic Cheeseburger All came with coleslaw and that was great too! We plan on making this a pitstop from now on.

There is nothing like post hike hunger…read more Understanding that you are pretty out there in location and ingredients are better quality but... this place is expensive. And they do not have fries. I ordered the lost coast burger and with tax it was $20. It came with a small portion of broccoli coleslaw that I really liked- and thankfully my two companions did not so I got a triple portion. The burger was fine. Not the greasy smash burger experience I was craving, but it tasted fresh. Served on a ciabatta roll... from Costco? Unconfirmed, but that's what it tasted like. I would have preferred brioche or something more fluffy. I ate every crumb because post hike hunger. I wouldn't come again though. The service was good and everyone was nice- just overpriced for the product, IMO. The outdoor seating was nice and it looks like sometimes there is live music. The bathrooms were gross. Smelled horrible and dirty. There is a campground or some sort of rv park right behind that may also be sharing the restrooms.

My wife, her mom, and I, all like burgers so figured this would be a good place to stop. Our cellular service did not work here, so had to use the info I had downloaded in Google maps to know where to stop. It ended up being pretty good. Hours are daily 11:00 - 20:00, so we arrived just after it opened and were the first ones. There is two areas for outdoor dining: a large set of picnic tables near the chimney tree as well as a patio at the restaurant itself. We soon realized that a cat was roaming the patio, looking for food, so we decided to eat inside, instead. It's a one man operation, with the owner fulfilling multiple roles. After we orders and paid, we got a pager to notify us once the order was ready. Everything is prepared fresh, so it took a bit of time. But because it was served hot, everything tasted good. I love a lot of toppings on my burger, so the self-serve topping bar was great...was able to put as much lettuce and pickles as I wanted. The 1/3 hamburger ($12.99) came with good fries . My wife got her plain cheeseburger 1/4 cheeseburger ($9.99) and enjoyed it. Her mom got chicken strips basket ($13.99), and upgraded her fries to be curly. We all shared each others fries, and the curly fries were really good. Drinks are cans. I didn't want to risk having a milk shake, but from all indications, it sounded good. We ate our meal at the counter. Afterwards, the owner suggested we walk across the parking lot to visit the Living Chimney Tree. It's free to enter, and is hollow enough for a person or two fit in. There are openings on both sides, so easy to take some nice pictures.

It should also be noted that in a town with very few public restrooms, Ray's is not stepping up to the plate. There were two restrooms in back, one of which is designated employees only (despite two non-employees sneaking in to use it while I waited) and the actual customer one, which includes a sign saying you have to have purchased something in store to even use it. There was someone inside so I waited in a line in a cramped back hallway for a good ten minutes wondering what in the world this person was doing inside before finally giving up and hitting a dirty gas station across the street.
