Don't go here. These people probably have great food, but obviously don't know how to run a restaurant. There was no hostess At the front door but they had a sign that said to please wait to be seated. We waited about 20 minutes with half the tables empty, no one ever asked us how many people nothing. Only to have a waitress finally come over to us and about 3 other groups behind us and tell us it would be awhile for a table. Someone behind us asked if we could just be seated at one of the empty tables and wait. The waitress rudely said no and walked away. The waitress was clueless, one cook, was cooking, and walking out to-go orders. The other was cooking and handing out menu. Again, because the waitress are worthless here. read more

Wow, this place is amazing! Walking up to it, it looks like a hole in the wall, and you might be unsure what to think about it. Trust me though, you're definitely going to want to eat breakfast here! When opening the door, make sure you push it hard to open and then to close it. The door tends to stick at the bottom. At first, I didn't know if this was a restaurant or a shop because they sell legit antiques in the front of the store. When we walked in, there were locals seated around, so we went and chose a place to sit ourselves. We chose to sit by the front window at a tables and a booth. Immediately, a sweet, young lady came up to us and asked if this was our first time here. She let us know that we had to go up to the window to order, they would bring the food to us, and then we would pay afterwards. For myself, I decided to go with a sausage breakfast burrito with a cup of coffee, and I got the French toast sticks with bacon and apple juice for my son. My mom got the veggie omelette, fried potatoes, and English muffin. My dad got the Mud Bog, which was two biscuits stuffed with eggs, potatoes, and cheese while being smothered in gravy. My uncle got a bacon omelette, potatoes, and biscuits and gravy. Everything was out pretty quickly. Our meals were served on paper plates, which was so cool. My cup of coffee came in a Christmas mug, which I found very endearing. We also noticed the ice cubes in the water had a certain shape to them that seemed vintage, like they had been popped out of an ice cube tray. The food was oh, so delicious! We couldn't believe it! I have attached pictures to show everything. We felt like we had taken step back in time to eat at a diner, and this was pure Americana at its best. There was a man there who was so friendly as well, and I got the impression he might be the owner based on the way he was talking to the customers. Not only was the food excellent, but the prices were cheap! I think for what I ordered, it was only $13 or $14. Out of all the places we have eaten at in Rapid City, this is by far one of my favorites. If you happen to be here, definitely check it out for breakfast. We're considering going back there for lunch as well to try their lunch menu. Thanks, The Mud Hole! read more

I had a work trip to South Dakota and we tried this place for breakfast. The food was really really good! It's definitely a family owned mom and pop shop with a thrift store inside as well. These types of places are always either a hit or miss and this place is definitely a HIT. I had the breakfast burrito with sausage and it was perfect. Ratio of egg, cheese and sausage was great. Would definitely recommend this place to visitors in the area. read more

The food and service was outstanding- exactly what we were looking for! This is a mom and pops /family owned restaurant and everything about the atmosphere & food gives you that "homey" feel. We are actually from Houston, Texas and here for the Sturgis and this will for sure be one of the things we look forward too when we come for the rally next year. We are already talking about stopping in before our flight back home in the morning. 10/10 recommend this place- we WILL be back. *I wish I took a photo of the food but it was too good so I ate it before I thought of getting a photo* read more

Mud Hole - Look how cute this place is- so cozy and relaxing. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Rapid City, South Dakota

Walking in we were a little unsure if we were at the right place, it looks like a flea market, but keep walking thru and this cute diner exists. A chalkboard menu (love) and very friendly staff to help make suggestions. We ordered the staple mud bog and a chicken fried steak. The bog was very good, fluffy biscuits with great sausage gravy. Not a huge fan of the potatoes in it, but it was good. The CFS was ok, kinda small and probably not made there. Coffee was spot on. Bottled apple juice, all for $22. Great price. read more

I can see why this place has good reviews. Rapid city seemed kind of like a food desert, mostly chain restaurants and regular run of the mill kind of places. Granted, I didn't stay in town that long, but only found one really good Greek gyro place that I loved, and everything else I ate was disappointing. But then on the last day of my trip, my hotel didn't have a free breakfast, and I was on the hunt for cheap eats. Mud Hole delivered on that. The breakfast was delicious and by far cheaper than anything else in town! Definitely add this place to your list. They have a neat little area with antiques for sale too if that's your kind of thing. read more

I haven't been to Rapid City in decades, so it was good to return. I found this little place via Yelp before a long day of driving, and it was everything I had hoped in an eclectic breakfast place. Staff was friendly, coffee was strong, the food was amazing. Is it the fanciest of places? No - and that's what made my first experience here so perfect. Keep slingin' the mud, my friends! read more

Great biscuits and gravy. Great service. Funky little dive restaurant that you should definitely try. Try the cinnamon donut holes!

I consider myself a sausage and biscuit snob! But when I read the reviews we had to try it! Let me say I'd never been in a thrift shop for breakfast. Our waitress was friendly and very helpful. Place was hopping and she was able to take everyone's order without writing it down. read more

Excellent food and service. Unique atmosphere. We enjoyed it so much that we ate here two days in a row. The waffle was amazing. Also enjoyed the stuffed biscuits and corn beef and hash. Restaurants rarely get eggs Benedict right, but this one did! read more

Yum. Best corned beef hash I've ever had, including what we've made at home. My husband is a big fan of biscuits and gravy. I am not. But after eating here I could be converted. Give them a try. You won't be sorry. read more

The pearl sugar waffle I had was the best I've ever eaten! The atmosphere was unique & homey, & the staff was so friendly. It was like having breakfast with family. Thank you to everyone at the Mud Hole! I'll be back read more

This place is a hidden gem. The food is fantastic and so is the service! Highly recommend for breakfast

Unique atmosphere for sure. Other reviews brought us here and we were not disappointed, a sign of a good place is the number of "local" vehicles parked there when you pull up. The people were very nice, service was quick...and the food was EXCELLENT! Husband had the Mud Bog with sausage and loved it! I had the breakfast burrito and it was also good, only complaint was that I couldn't finish it- no worries though as hubby did Definitely worth your time to stop in and eat breakfast!! read more

What I want to do is leave 1 star so locals and tourists don't flood it. I've wanted to come here for years and just never made it. Had about a 10 minute wait for a table-no problem. It's like a mini thrift store up front so that kept us occupied. Food was dynamite and so reasonably priced. There were people that had to wait for their tab so if you're in a hurry this isn't the place but it is now dubbed as my new favorite breakfast in rapid. The eggs benny, hash browns and pearl sugar waffle were all incredible. It was a two person show with one gal serving literally ever single table and one dude cooking. Both were so friendly it doesn't make me want to support any other breakfast place in town. Will be back a million more times read more

Good place. Definitely a local spot with good food. Seating is limited so not good for groups. Service is top notch

We love supporting local establishments and the 4 days we stayed in Rapid City, this was by far our favorite. This place had character, great menu, prices were very reasonable and the service was fantastic. Highly recommend!!! read more

A quick stop for breakfast while traveling through from Mt. Rushmore to Spearfish. Friendly people, Great food and service!!!

Enjoyed a tasty breakfast- my favorite biscuits and gravy. I'd read the various reviews and the meal (and price) lived up to expectations! If we're in the region again, we will definitely make the Mud Hole a destination. read more

Great breakfast. The biscuit was to die for. Sausage patty excellent. The omelet perfect b

Trying this place was one of my better decisions. The interior reminded me of going to grandma's house(maybe a little more "cluttered "!). I had the Mud Bog w/sausage patty. Eggs, potatoes, cheese, scrambled together, stuffed in delicious biscuits, smothered in sausage gravy. One of the best I had in all my travels. Order & pay at window, delivered to your table. Clean up your utensils. Just like grandma's! Want a unique experience with top notch food? Try it out. read more
