Mac and cheese
Jenna T.

We ended up here because we were seriously hangry after driving from SoCal and hiking Rainbow Falls. It's one of those spots where the only service you get is them bringing food to your table--everything else is self-order and self-serve. The water was room temperature, and when we asked for ice, the bartenders were pretty stingy with it. The onion rings, though, were a hit--crispy and served with a variety of sauces. Bonus points for not charging extra for more sauces! The mac and cheese was a bit of a letdown. The bacon on top wasn't cooked, and the cheese was just sitting there on top, not mixed in, making the noodles dry. The spicy meatballs were tasty, but the side of garlic bread was a different story--clearly burnt on the bottom. It was a quick bite, but honestly, I probably wouldn't come back.

Root Beer
Andrew L.

The food here was great and tasty. Especially the mac n cheese, it was very flavorful once you mix it well. I do recommend the drinks as well, they're very nice and refreshing and do have a unique taste to it. There isn't much service to be expected compared to a usual restaurant but they do bring the food to your table. The whole setting of the restaurant was pretty nice and clean as well so it led to a great overall experience. There is a lot of seating so you can bring all your friends as well!! Overall would recommend!

Brewery Bread Fries
Sarah C.

nice vibes, fast service. the burger meat was a bit bland and the beer cheese was very beer-y, but I loved the sweet potato tots and the beef birria was very tender. the taco shells were also naan which was pretty interesting

Menu

Always a solid choice in Mammoth! Was worried about finding a seat because it was storming out, but friendly staff and customers made it easy to find a spot for our group of 5! Food is the usual brewery fare. Had the burger and fries, but they do have a gluten free pizza for those in need of that. Easy to order, get a beer, etc. Stop on in

Appetizers were really bad. Beer was okay. We left to eat somewhere else. Read the reviews while there. You should read before going.

We sat at the indoor bar, where the service was good and TVs were available to catch the sports action. They also host trivia, which makes this a fun option for a night out with friends. The highlight for me was the Philly cheesesteak -- absolutely amazing! Definitely worth coming back for. Whether you're looking for a casual meal, a place to watch the game, trivia night, or somewhere to bring your pup, this brewery checks a lot of boxes. We'll definitely be back next time we're in Mammoth!

September 7, 2026 - Mammoth Lakes, CA…read more Great dog-friendly outdoor seating, friendly staff, and a menu with some surprisingly good finds. The outdoor patio is located next to a busy street, so there is a fair amount of activity and noise, but that really did not bother me. We stopped in for an early lunch, and I started with a glass of J. Lohr Pinot Noir. What a pleasant surprise--a really good glass of Pinot for just $9. We also ordered the Damn Good Burger, which lived up to its name. But the Bang 'n Shrimp ($17) completely stole the show. Crispy shrimp tossed in spicy Sriracha mayo, lime, cilantro, green onion, and sesame seeds. Spicy, tangy, crispy, and ridiculously addictive. I'm not saying I was still thinking about those shrimp hours later, but...I was. Add in the dog-friendly patio and friendly service; this is definitely a place we'd stop at again.

She gave us great food recommendations, provided amazing service, and the atmosphere was just as wonderful.

The owner even came out to meet Marge and took the time to get to know us, which was such a thoughtful touch and really made the experience feel personal. We left feeling like we found our new spot in Mammoth. We'll absolutely be coming back anytime we're in town! Highly recommend--especially if you're traveling with your pup.

First impression of Mountain Rambler: a casual, laid-back brewery with a chill atmosphere and spacious seating. The AC was blasting, though, so I found a corner table to escape the arctic chill. Ordering was easy, and they were accommodating with substitutions. Not a fan of having to tip before getting your food, though. The checkout wouldn't let me proceed without selecting a tip, so you have to manually enter $0 if you prefer to tip after service. Tried the non-alcoholic shrub drink, which had a tart, kombucha-like fermented flavor. Interesting, but definitely an acquired taste! Ordered the Rambler Burger with garlic fries. Portions were generous, and the fries were tasty. Loved the bacon, onions, and green chiles on the burger, but the lettuce was a little brown and the pretzel bun overly toasted. Otherwise, a solid burger, although it could've used some condiments. The ranch was good but a little soupy. Service was nice enough, but nothing particularly memorable or that extra small-mountain-town welcome you sometimes get while passing through. Overall, a relaxed spot with generous portions and plenty of room to hang out. A few minor food and ordering quirks, but a decent lunch stop in Bishop. My true honest rating would be a 3.5/5 stars

Extremely disappointing experience, especially for a restaurant serving grass-fed beef…read more First, I found it incredibly odd that the only options for how my burger could be cooked were "pink" or "no pink," rather than standard temperatures like medium-rare, medium, or well-done. I specifically explained to our waiter that I wanted my burger cooked medium, with some pink but not bloody. He reiterated that my only choices were "pink" or "no pink," so I selected pink. What arrived was a completely well-done burger. For a restaurant serving grass-fed beef, that's honestly a shame. If you're going to highlight the quality of your beef, the kitchen should know how to cook it properly, especially when a customer has clearly communicated their preference. To make matters worse, the burger was advertised as coming with garlic aioli. What I received was essentially plain mayonnaise with a generous amount of raw bell peppers. I'm not sure in what world that qualifies as garlic aioli, but it certainly wasn't what was described or what I expected. The menu description was misleading, and the combination itself was bizarre. Overall, the experience was frustrating. When a restaurant emphasizes quality ingredients, I expect that same level of care in preparation, execution, and menu accuracy. Unfortunately, this burger missed the mark on all three. Grass-fed beef deserves better than being cooked into oblivion.
