We had a great experience at The Stove Restaurant! Everything we ordered was delicious, the food came out fresh and hot, and the portions were great. Definitely a place worth visiting if you're in Mammoth Lakes. My only minor complaint was the initial service. There seemed to be plenty of servers working, but it took longer than expected for someone to come over and take our drink and food orders. However, once we finally ordered, everything came out surprisingly fast, and the food was absolutely worth it. That small delay definitely wasn't enough to take away a star. The quality of the food and the overall experience more than made up for it. We really enjoyed our meal and would absolutely come back again. Five stars! read more

If you're looking for a classic, hearty breakfast in Mammoth, The Stove is definitely worth a stop! This is the kind of authentic breakfast spot that delivers all the comfort-food favorites. The biscuits and gravy were delicious, the eggs tasted great, and the ham steak was HUGE! Come hungry because the portions definitely don't disappoint. Outside is dog friendly. Staff is attentive and kind. Great place to fuel up before a day of exploring the mountains. We'll definitely be back on our next trip to Mammoth! read more

Came in today at 7:05am and it was already almost half full on a Wednesday morning. This is a popular spot! I can see why because everyone is so friendly here and the food comes out pretty quickly, hot and delicious. My husband got the pancake sandwich with one pancake, an egg and two bacon. I ordered à la carte with two scrambled eggs and toast with their delicious apricot jam. It is the perfect amount for light eaters. They have something for everybody here. read more

While waiting for the Vons pharmacy, we walked over here to get some much needed breakfast! On a Friday morning it was really busy, but we still got seated quickly. It's small inside but they really maximize the space. The food was great - I got the regular, which was eggs, hashbrowns, meat and toast. The jam they provide with the toast must be homemade because it was AMAZING. Some of the best jam I've ever had, and the hashbrowns were great as well. Solid food and excellent service, can't ask for much more than that. It's definitely worth coming by if you're in the area. read more

The Stove - The regular - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Mammoth Lakes, California

First time visit. We came to Mammoth from Bridgeport for an early morning hardware & lumber run and planned on eating breakfast in town. After reviewing local restaurant Yelp reviews we chose The Stove and so very pleased we did. There is plenty of parking near and accross the street. The restrooms were clean. The staff were all wonderful, the menu extensive and wonderful seating outside. The inside tables looked great as well. We ordered a variety of skillets, denver omelette and the pancake breakfast with bacon. Everything was fabulous! We have returned since that trip for another breakfast and enjoyed the breakfast burrito and bacon and cheddar omelette both with crispy hashbrowns. Two visits, two 5 star experiences. read more

I ordered takeout from this restaurant over the phone, and at no point was I told that a 15% gratuity would be added to my bill. I only discovered the charge when I got to the register. I find this especially unreasonable for a to-go order, and customers should be informed of mandatory fees before they're charged--not surprised by them at checkout. For that reason, I'm leaving a 1-star review. Customers deserve transparency, and I think people should be aware of this practice before ordering. read more

The Stove - 15% on to go orders? No warning. Ridiculous. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Mammoth Lakes, California

The Stove in Mammoth Lakes is a must! The food is delicious and hearty with large servings. The service is friendly and attentive. The interior has such a fun, nostalgic charm with the wood booths, vintage kitchen wear on the walls and old tin canisters of the food products This makes the atmosphere cozy and memorable. It is the perfect spot to fuel up before a day on the slopes or after a tiring day on the slopes- highly recommend this restaurant! read more

I ordered two dishes during my visit: Gravy Train (with scrambled eggs) - This one felt very worth it since it comes with potatoes, bacon, and a biscuit. The fried chicken was big, well-fried, and not dry at all. I really liked it, though I felt the gravy could've been a bit hotter. Still, I'd give this dish a solid 4.5/5. Country Fried Steak - Served with gravy and potatoes, similar to the Gravy Train but with steak instead of chicken. The steak was nicely thick and very filling. There's limited parking available. I went on a Wednesday so it wasn't too crowded, but I still waited about 20 minutes. read more

I've been here twice. Two weeks apart to be exact. : short and sweet - it's a good breakfast spot. Service: 5/5 The first time I came it was with a group of 7. The second time I went it was only 3. We got seated quickly. They took our orders fast, food was brought out very quickly for our party size and overall I think we spent less than an hour there both times. They are good for large parties! Food: Solid for a mountain town. 5/5 * Chocolate chip pancakes with bacon,eggs, hot chocolate, and the French toast. (I would order tho again multiple times). * Everyone I went with enjoyed their meal and someone even took a whole pie home. Parking: good if they aren't busy. The first time we went the whole lot was full. The second time it was fairly easy to park. Price: would land somewhere int the 25-30 dollar range per person and that's on the higher end read more

The Stove - Prime rib hash - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Mammoth Lakes, California

This is a very busy and popular and busy brunch place. It is known for their chicken fried steak. It was excellent and crunchy and not overwhelming with the gravy. I had the prime rib hash which was decent with the seasoned hash prime rib bits with potatoes underneath with an egg your style. The staff was very nice and attentive and service was good and the pies looked delicious but I didn't have enough stomach. The atmosphere was lively brunch and the place was bustling. It can be a little cramped but it's cozy and cute. read more

The Stove - Prime rib hash - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Mammoth Lakes, California

Group of 7 at 1:30pm 12/26/25 (they close at 2PM) and everyone opted for lunch fair. Cheeseburgers, patty melts, French dip sandwiches all cooked to perfection. 3 of us opted for soup of the day side (instead of fries) and we were treated to next level cup of flavorful meatball soup, maybe best ever?!Albóndigas deliciousness. Fries are solid, but the Zucchini Fries were plump, lightly battered and flavorful (see photo). Friendly wait staff and food arrived quickly. Only drawback, we never saw our waiter again - water glasses left empty and had to call into the kitchen (awkward) for to-go containers. Still, the kitchen staff overcame any shortcomings up front (and we arrived near closing) so we're going with 5 Stars!! read more

Perfect spot for breakfast. We came off backpacking the night before so this place was great. Their hash skillet was great but their cinnamon French toast was the highlight. The hostess is friendly and so is the staff. They are quick to eat if a spot is available and plenty of parking in the lot next door.

I was surprised I haven't reviewed the Stove. I've been coming here for decades. The Stove is the quintessential breakfast spot. They have a wide selection of breakfast options.

One item is all you need - CINNAMON SWIRL FRENCH TOAST. My goodness, I subbed this into the Stove Special and I was glad I did. Perfect flavor and texture to go along with my eggs and bacon. PS the bacon is also really good - such great flavor and crispiness, they do it so consistently, it's amazing. The staff are very kind, and show they're happy to be helping the guests. They are quick, efficient, and friendly. I'LL BE BACK EVERY TIME I AM IN MAMMOTH. Side note - Inside, it seemed like trying to get a high chair to a table safely would be an issue. I noticed how the tables/booths were set up, a high chair would stick out into an aisle which would cause a disturbance. read more

Fantastic breakfast spot! We ordered the omelette, tri-tip hash with a side order of short stack. We came later in the morning so we were seated immediately. Service was great and we enjoyed our meals. This will be a go to spot for breakfast/brunch. read more

Total 5 star fun and great food. We arrived on a Sunday at prime lunch time. About a 20 minute wait to get a table and another wait to get menus but HEY...it's a SUNDAY prime lunch time, so we did not think this was unreasonable. I ordered a BLAT with fried zucchini and a large ranch dressing. Blat is a BLT with avocado. The bread slices are not huge but even though I was super hungry I I had to take half away to eat later on the road trip. The reason I couldn't eat it all was because the FRIED ZUCCHINI WAS THE BEST I'D EVER HAD IN MY LIFE. I still love it even when it's just OK. But this is WONDERFUL. Why more restaurants do not offer it instead of fries I do not understand. Their "batter" HERE is spectacular and it is COOKED to PERFECTION. Please check my pictures. I will drive off 395 next time I'm near Mammoth JUST FOR THIS FRIED ZUCCHINI! Usually the ranch on the side at OTHER restaurants is not enough. It's in a small plastic container and half full. That's why I asked for a large...when my plate arrived, the ranch was in a soup cup. (:-) I was soooo tickled. That quadrupled her tip...seriously. Our waitress was awesome. I should have gotten her name to compliment her. My friend had a burger with a bunch of stuff he ordered "on the side". See the picture. His burger was pretty big and he was hungry and still took half away along with a few fries. Both our meals were GREAT. People were gushing over the PIES. You can buy whole pies as well as individual sizes they call Cutie Pies. They certainly look deliciously homemade. We should have gotten a Cutie to go. We regretted that later when we polished off our leftover meals at Topaz Lake in a turnout watching the water before our last leg home. If you live local you know The Stove...if you are passing by & looking for delicious food served by nice people in a fun casual environment, you will NOT be disappointed here. If you have the time for a nice 2 mile-ISH walk...mostly level-ISH check out the HorseShoe Lake Loop trail. I've driven 395 past Mammoth for literally 3.5 DECADES and we never took the time to stop. So this time we DID take the time and I'm thrilled we did. Don't pass Mammoth by for 35 years like I did...Go check it out and eat delicious food at The Stove!

They have an amazing vegan option: get the veggie burger with no mayo, and replace with cucumber and spinach. I also got fruit and textured vegan protein sauteed (they called it tofu crumble or something but it's TVP). Incredibly tasty To the owners: I hope you can add the tofu crumble to the menu as I found out it was available only when I asked the server. Label it as textured vegan protein.

We've been coming to The Stove for over 20 years, so this visit was especially disappointing. While Kayla and was friendly and helpful, the male host was very rude. Our party of six had been waiting to be seated when another party of six arrived after us. Eventually, someone from their group asked about the wait, and the male host said, "We have a table," and waved them in. When we asked about when we would be seated since we arrived before the previous group, he claimed he had already called our name. All six of us had been seated, listening and heard parties being called--our group was never called. Kayla did apologize for the mix up, since she was aware we were waiting before the other group. Since we have been going to The Stove for years, we decided to give it another try, so later in the week, we pre-ordered three pies several days in advance and later added a fourth (Kayla added the fourth). When we arrived, only one pie (the one Kayla put in) was available, and we were told we could come back in two days--even though we were leaving the next day. The male staff member insisted we had changed our order, but the handwritten order sheet in the clipboard did show what we had originally requested. The other host was apologetic but told us the mix up was because Kayla (who wasn't there at the time) made a mistake and didn't complete the order. We explained that the male host took our order. We appreciated that she discounted the one pie we did receive. Instead of eating there, we went to The Warming Hut down the street, where the service was friendly, the food arrived quickly, and our food was good. We understand mistakes happen, but it was the dismissive and rude customer service of the male host --not the mistakes themselves--that made this experience so disappointing. read more

So glad we stopped here. Cutest little country house antique vibe place. The veggie omelet was delicious with house potatoes. Perfectly seasoned and flavorful with side biscuit for small extra charge. Wait wasn't too long. Good service just know it's typically a full house so don't expect food out in a snap. Definitely check it out. read more

So I see on the Stoves website that it says " Wheelchair accessible, Disabled person parking! This is far, far from the truth!! Firstly, The Stove is my Absolute FAVORITE place to eat! Secondly, I have not been able to go there because the New owner over way over a year ago when she bought it assured me that she was getting the permanent Handicap parking sign installed! Nope! They had a plastic A frame 2 ft high thing out there and was ran over and broke the first week! They have a back entrance" Handicap entrance " that a person who is disabled would need to go through the Small pathway through the kitchen area! A wheelchair could never fit!! I've tried!! And the Stairs to front entrance are steep and slippery!! Come on New Owner's this is absolutely illegal and I've been kind and patient with y'all but I'm over it! ILLEGAL ILLEGAL ILLEGAL! read more

Out of diet Coke, out of a beer my partner wanted, fried chicken sandwich had overcooked bacon, maybe had melted cheese on it, couldn't tell, a huge piece of lettuce you had to fold or tear off, and because I didn't want the dijon, it came dry. Didn't even ask me if I wanted something else on it. Did not finish. Just not good. Wasn't even that cheap. The wait staff was nice, but it can't make up for inferior food. read more

Pretty delicious. The Stove is located in Mammoth. It's a local's favorite. They serve breakfast and lunch only. When my husband and I go to Mammoth, we have to stop here for breakfast. Their waffles are divine. You can choose your toppings for it too. Toppings may vary according to the season. Some toppings include strawberries with whip cream, banana and nuts, and blueberries to name a few. And the butter with the waffles or pancakes is home made and whipped to perfection. The service is quick too and everything tastes fresh and yummy. I want to go back on a future trip and try some other items like their omelets; there is an option to create your own omelets mmm. Recommend coming here during your vacation stay. read more

Have not been here for some time now. The place was very clean. The service great and the food delicious and plentiful. Three of us ordered omelets. Two western and one veggie.

Staff was pleasant and helpful. Service was good for as busy as the place was. However, just take the chicken fried steak off the menu. It was tough and bland.

I would give this place 2.5 stars. My husband talked me into going to The Stove restaurant for lunch. I went there last year and I did not liked the beef hash I had but he said that the pork chop he had last year was good. So I decided to give this restaurant another chance. Both of us ordered the pork chop this time. The pork chop entree comes with two eggs cooked your way, potatoes with gravy. The pork chop was dry which was very disappointing. The eggs were fine. The potatoes and gravy were good. With both pork chop entrees overcooked and last year's beef hash also dry and over cooked, I doubt that I would be going back there. I wonder why this place has such good reviews on Yelp! The only thing I liked about this place was the decor. It has many kitchen decors (ie kitchen tools, spices, chicken and rooster figurines...etc). read more
