The small town of Concrete doesn't have many businesses left but I am glad they still have the Lonestar Restaurant. I needed a big breakfast for the long day ahead and this place delivers. I had the Chuck Wagon omelet which came smothered in delicious Country Gravy, shredded hash browns and chunks of chicken fried steak, green onions and cheese all wrapped in egg. It comes with a choice of toast. This thing was super big and filling! I loved it. The flavor of the gravy was very good and it was a nice combination of items in this order. I see they have several other uniquely named breakfast items and even their lunch and dinner choices looked yummy. The service was friendly and prompt and everyone here seemed to be in a good mood. Give this place a try and support the local economy when in Concrete! Thanks Lonestar, you guys are doing it right! read more

Whenever you're visiting historic concrete Washington you have to take note of the Lonestar restaurant you walk in and it's immediately greeting you with all sorts of wonderful artwork and historical pieces from the town's history. Most enjoyable thing though is the delicious breakfast with the healthy size portions that can come your way for as little as $7.99 I had to enjoy the Gene Autry with scrambled eggs, link sausage, and 2 slices of healthy wheat toast. Love the service in the coffee but the one thing that I wanted to try but can't because of my weight loss goal... The delicious pies the chocolate cream pie is my new nemesis LOL!! read more

Came back here a second time and they got my order correct! Actually got the Rooster Cogburn burger that has a fried egg. The fries here are excellent. Crispy on outside, soft in the middle, and oh so tasty! And, enough to fill you up! The burger itself was purrfect. Little more mayo than wanted but even then it was really amazing! Hats off the the cook! Ambiance and waitress were amazing, this is on my come back to first list, completely happy! First time here they gave me someone else's meal, still five star worthy, this time gave me what I ordered. Mistakes happen. read more

Huge disappointment. Ordered a rare sirloin and it came well done. Also had a spud covered with gravy, meat and onions which look and tasted like Alpo dog food. Margaritas were the worst that I have ever had. Service was mediocre. read more

Didn't even want to give it a star. The waitress to her time getting to our table. Then was rude bringing the order out. Didn't check on us. The food was flavorless. Portions did not match the price. This place has gone way down under new ownership. I don't believe we will return. read more

SUPER GOOD!!! Our family came here after a great day adventuring the North Cascades, the perfect burger to end the day!! The reviews do not give Justice to this country styled, ma & pa place. We were helped right away by kind service and our food came in a good amount of time for a party of 6. Highly recommend, we can't wait to come back!!! read more

All of the five star ratings about this restaurant may be correct, but don't reflect my experience. After a long day on the road, I was psyched to get to this restaurant. It was my destination for the day. I walked in through the restaurant and headed to the bar because I wanted to watch Monday night football. It was weird, but they didn't have the football game on in the bar. Then I looked up at the ceiling and saw the giant "Let's Go Brandon" flag. Nope! Hard no! I left, and I will never be back. I'm not a snowflake, and you are entitled to your opinions, but I am entitled to decide who to give my money to. This place was a hard no for me! I'd eat rocks before I give them my money. read more

Found this gem by accident while looking for the haunted bar in Concrete. It's a nice established restaurant with a full bar room off to the side. That part was closed at lunch time but we didn't care. We were looking for some grub and that's what we got. I had a chili burger open faced with french fries. It was hearty and satisfying. Mrs Billy D had a patty melt with onion rings. She had no complaints. All the burger patties were 1/3 lb and good. The service was efficient and prompt. We shall return. read more

The staff is nice a friendly. We stopped here for a late breakfast after an early hiking trip in the cascades. We were both famished. They have funny names for breakfast, like the Belly warmer or the Belly Buster. Come hungry, they serve a lot of food. I ordered an omelette, which comes with a side of breakfast potatoes or hash browns and toast, biscuit or cornbread. I asked if I could have a pancake instead, sure they said. When the food was served, my gosh, it was a lot! I didn't think it said on the menu, but to me, that looked like a 4 egg omelette! Even though we were famished, we couldn't finish, it was good, everything was nice & fresh tasting. read more

Not many options in this town for food. The burger was dry and small for the price but did appreciate great service from our waitress who expertly managed the dinner rush read more

Finally, an excellent breakfast in this part of North Cascades. Omelet well prepared, good potatoes with onions and peppers, corn bread on the side (for my wife, eggs, biscuit and hash browns). And despite the reasonable price, the portions were so large that we have leftovers for TOMORROW's breakfast read more

food was awful. sent back. looked and tasted likebit was leftovers from 2days ago waitress mean, rude and unapologetic (and fugly) read more

Fantastic service,Jessica was attentive and prompt with the coffee refills.Bunkhouse breakfast was filling and the Gold Nugget breakfast spuds were flavorfull and just crispy enough. The country Benedict was filling and the country gravy was delicious. read more

Best place to stop if you have a big appetite! Down home food, friendly staff and reasonable prices. The Motherload burger is awesome! Highly recommended. read more

Not sure what's happening here but the last two visits they are VERY short staffed. I came for b'fast and the tables weren't bussed, many customers waiting to order food and only ONE poor overwhelmed waitress. When the owner finally arrived at 9:00 she had no idea where to start but she didn't start with those waiting the longest time. I paid for my coffee and walked out after spending nearly 30 minutes waiting. I'm patient but not THAT patient. I'm heading to Perks, down the road. They are cheaper anyway and maybe I won't have to wait a half hour to get my order in. It'll be a while before I try the Lonestar again. Maybe they'll be able to solve the staffing problem. read more

Fantastic breakfast with big portion sizes and big taste. Highly recommend the omelette with the golden nugget spuds (breakfast potatoes). Belly washer omelette is my favorite with lots of veggies + Swiss cheese & ham. Great place to go for a single breakfast or to bring the whole family along. read more

Great food. Great service! Lots of seating or you can take out. We elected order to go this morning as being Mother's day he didn't want to cook...lol. The omelets were great and the biscuits perfect. Great place! read more

The waitress/owner's wife was rude and would not give me info about price...I suspect she takes advantage of elderly customers. I asked her for a menu with price...never got one and my $20.00 was whisked away like a magic trick!...no change is ever given even when I only have coffee! I am in my 70's so she thinks I am an easy target! I guess I am! But I have friends there and there aren't many options in this tiny town...guess I will have to drive further and convince friends to do the same...be warned if you are older than 50 to never get your change back...coffee only will cost the whole $20 if you put it out there for her to get her mitts on!!! This has happened every time I go there so I won't be meeting my friends there any more. It's happened for the last time!!! read more

Stopped in for dinner and few drinks. Down home type atmosphere. I ordered the hot turkey sandwhich and couldn't be happier. The bartender was extremely polite and sweet. Well needed and very pleased. read more

Great stop in a cool little downtown area. Breakfast all day was what got us to walk in. Benedict was great but the biscuits and gravy were just ok. read more

Don't let the appearance of the restaurant put you off- the food is very good and plentiful particularly the PEANUT BUTTER MILK SHAKE. Made with love read more

Nice atmosphere but food was much less than par. The breakfast potato's my wife got with her omelette were so overcooked that they were (and I'm not exaggerating) barely edible. I asked for mushrooms on my burger dip and that was forgotten. it was a dry roll with dry, tasteless, overcooked, processed patty. Though I didn't notice this until my wife did, the place was somewhat smokey and it was emanating from the kitchen. They must have had the grill turned up way too high. The Service: If you don't like smiles, this is the place for you. The waitress didn't seem sympathetic at all about the cook forgetting the mushrooms. My wife asked for water and, before I could ask for one, waitress quickly walked away. She didn't ask me if I wanted a refill on my soft drink. After she brought the food she forgot about us. My wife finally had to go up and pay at the counter. I understand the worker shortages don't help, but... It was very clean and had a good western, small town ambience. I hope this helps them in making improvements. It's a nice drive out to Concrete. read more

We came here for breakfast and everything was perfect. Would definitely return next time in town.

Great service! Fast and efficient. Come hungry or share with someone because the portions are huge! The food had a great homemade taste that screams comfort food. read more

We were in town for one night and were so excited that this place was here... Great food and drinks, and the locals were so welcoming!! By the end of the night we were shooting pool with them and felt right at home. Thank you so much for such an easy environment with perfect company!! read more

You get big portions when you order. Great tasting food but too many options. They need to dial down the choices abit.

Delicious food, huge plates, and friendly staff. Located in the center of a beautiful small town. Very recommendable.

Captains plate is massive. I can eat a lot and couldn't finish it. Very good for the price for sure.

@justpadge_eats Love me some small towns where it seems everyone knows everyone. Greeted with that typical small town hospitality and a smile. Asked 'what do people come here for?' Our waitress replied *Don't ask me that, everything, they come for everything. Every thing is made in house and it's delicious.* She did inform me they take shortcuts on their Hollandaise Sauce and their Mashed Potatoes. So what did I do? Order a baked potato add brown gravy to make make my own! The 3 Piece Fried Chicken dinner was seasoned perfectly and juicy from bite to bite. The Onion rings were so good I forgot to share any with the wife. Oh can't forget the house made Ranch to go with them. Dinner also came with a side salad, which I wish was rinsed prior to serving, but the creamy blue cheese dressing almost made up for it. The wife took the cornbread since I had enough carbs on my plate but she assured me it was great, and I'm missing out. read more

Lonestar Restaurant - Fried Chicken Plate with Baked Potato with Brown Gravy and Onion Rings - American Near Me - Concrete, Washington

Super awesome folks! Here we are in the middle of a virus crisis and they are still working their butts off to serve us take-out! This evening we took home two plates of ribs and fried chicken and they were both great! The onion rings looked and taste to be freshly battered and were fantastic and their baked potatoes even came with the fixings. The salad was fresh and they prepared the dressing on the side for us. Their cornbread was nice and dense and a the entire supper was a substantial serving. Go out and visit these nice folks and give them your business during this time of difficulty. We'll be back for sure! read more

This is a lovely little place to eat in the day and at night there is a little bar. The staff is very friendly, the food is yummy and there is wifi! Overall a great place to check out and escape the rain if you are camping! The town is also cute and has a very other places to check out! read more

Lonestar Restaurant - The dining area - American Near Me - Concrete, Washington

Cute place with good food. Breakfast is my favorite; omelets are good and so are the pancakes. Really like the sausage patties. Very generous portions, had enough to take home for another meal. I like the old west theme decor. Friendly service in a small town. read more

This review is for the Water 'n Hole side of the restaurant. Be careful, A bottle of Corona goes for $6.75 each. I had no idea it was such a premium top shelf beverage. Between that and the rather unfriendly, forgetful waitress, we wont be back. Head down the road to Rockport for friendly reasonably priced beverages.​ read more

My traveling companion and I were very poorly treated at the "Lonestar" restaurant. I'm left wondering if this resulted from their extreme incompetence or if this treatment was intentionally malicious. How our experience unfolded: My traveling partner and I arrived at around 7:30 pm, happy but depleted from a challenging 3-day kayak camping trip in the North Cascades. We mentioned to our server by way of polite conversation that we'd had an intense few days and were hungry and tired. We sat at a table at the bar-side of the restaurant and the woman tending bar took our order -- 2 burgers and fries, coleslaw and baked beans. She warned us that the beans "may not be good and so I'll not bring them out if not." And then we waited. 1/2 an hour went by. Then another 10 minutes. I went to the bar and asked, politely and in a non-accusatory way when the food would be ready. She said that they were "backed up in the kitchen but it would be up in a minute". She gave no other explanation. Another 10 minutes went by. I was getting frustrated and went out to get some air and noticed on my way out that a lot of people were coming in and getting big order to-go. And when I got back to my seat I learned the reason for the delay: they put take-out orders ahead in the queue which means anyone ordering take-out from the restaurant at any time after us got their food first. Yes, you read that right. You order your food and a potentially endless list of people will get their food before you. We were never, ever warned of this. When it did arrive, my burger was burned and blackened. It wasn't well done -- actually char burned on one side. The slice of tomato on it was from the very top -- the part that you usually discard. It was also cold. I ate 1/3 of it, a few fries and pushed the plate away. They were apparently "out of cole slaw and baked beans" so those never came. My friend ate her burger quickly, got a box for her fries so that we could leave. In terms of "service" our bartender/waitress never warned us of this unfair moronic system where others get priority treatment over you. And this despite our being exhausted and famished and that we mentioned this to her at the beginning. When the food arrived cold close to an hour after we order it, she never apologized, never offered anything in the way of compensation. When she saw that I hardly ate, she didn't ask about why. When we tried to get her attention, so that we could pay and get out of there, she said bruskly that she had to check on another order. I really wanted to complain on the spot express my outrage -- but I did not. For one, I didn't think there was anyone to complain to -- clearly the waitress/ bartender wasn't going to help us and I didn't see anyone else there in charge. Also, my travel companion had endured a lot that day -- difficult conditions kayaking and exhaustion -- and I didn't want to add conflict to the mix. But I was very angry. I am trying to put this experience in perspective but it definitely cast a shadow on what was otherwise a spectacular trip to the North Cascades. read more

We went in for takeout at around 6, and there were only us and another order waiting. Only one person was working, and it was clear it was off-season/little business. Some menu items weren't available, like soup. Ordered a half turkey sandwich with fries and a Rooster Cogburn burger. Pulled turkey half sandwich was so/so- I think it's hard to have fresh unique menu items produced with little dinner business. The burger was better- egg was a good touch. Fries were crispy/good for their type. For the two meals, ~$25. Kudos to the worker for managing orders on her own. read more

At lone star grill in concrete, we go sit in the bar area because we like the atmosphere, we order water because it's hot and not drinking, and the bartender says, "I always think it's so weird when people come into a bar and just order an ice water, it's just weird" She said it extremely rude. Then she started talking shit about another customer for ordering just a club soda. The whole time we were here she was constantly swearing about things and taking rudely, and it took her awhile to get us our check because she was too busy talking to a friend of hers. Rude and horrible service. read more

I really really like this Place! The food is amazing. When my fiance and roommates moved from seattle to concrete we came here and ate. The service is excellent here and like talking to grace the waitress! read more

Stopped in for breakfast at the Lonestar after camping at Rasar State Park about 7 miles south of Concrete. The Lonestar has great atmosphere, décor, but most importantly, GREAT FOOD. I had the "Muzzle Loader" omelet and it was by far the best I have ever had. I have an affinity for simple, honest restaurants like the Lonestar and it did not disappoint. I hope to come back very soon. read more

This is one of the poorest run restaurants I have ever experienced. You never know if the kitchen will be open and your waitress needs to cook along with taking your order. I have experienced this on both of my last visits and the time prior to that it took 1-1/2 hours for breakfast. If you decide to sit on the pub side of the restaurant, you will be sitting under a large "Go Brandon" flag - completely unacceptable environment. This business will never get one more dollar of mine! read more

Great food and better service TASHA was amazing the place was crowded but she handled it perfectly 10 out of 10 recommend
