Stopped at Yellowstone Perk in Gardiner, MT, on Labor Day for some ice cream and came away…read moresatisfied but not blown away. The flavor selection is not huge, and we had to wave down someone behind the counter to get help, but the treats were satisfying enough as this spot is *right* at the north Yellowstone entrance...so some visits may be because one does not wish to look or search any farther and taking the first thing is sometimes necessary. As you may have guessed, Yellowstone Perk is also a coffee spot and a tourist gift/trinket shop, which you may find useful if you didn't get your Yellowstone Park mementos while inside the park. Nothing bad to say, and nothing that makes you remember it forever. Perfect for a quick sweet treat while sightseeing. I'd give it about 3 to 3.5 stars on a five-star scale.

If you didn't bring one, this is a good place to pick up a hat. Hotel in the park also has a souvenir shop, but this store has a bigger selection, if you're looking for a souvenir. If you've come from Bozeman or Livingston, you'll want to get a soft drink or yogurt, you'll appreciate sitting here for while before heading in. Food is good at the nearby Two Bit Saloon. It's still a bit of a ride from here to the mineral springs....keep your eye out for buffalo, they're all over the place.

They have basic things like bread, milk, cheese, chips, snacks, instant noodles (even the Korean spicy ramen), various types of iced coffees.

Burger spot right outside Yellowstone with a ton of awards! We were quickly drawn in from the…read moredisplay of all their awards. When we went they were under construction so the parking was a mess as was the seating situation, but I understand not closing down completely for a remodel. They're known for their elk and bison burgers but honestly I think their regular burger tasted better. The gamey taste is just not my favorite. The fries were pretty standard but the huckleberry milkshake was so good!! My husband brought up that milkshake again a few days later because he liked it so much.

There is a self serve water station and fairly decent drink menu as well. We had elk burgers and kids had chicken tenders. Everything was solid. The fries seem to be fresh cut and especially good.

That was the best tasting scone I've ever had! We started off with the garlic bread and it comes out on a pesto. It was toasted just right and has just a splash of balsamic glaze that added the best balance. Whole cloves of roasted garlic on there too! The chili, I can honestly say beat mine, and I make a damn good chili! Just the right amount of heat and the jalapeño cornbread added just the right texture. Bison strip in bourbon garlic sauce was the best meal I have had in a really long time. The vegetable served with it was perfectly cooked and fresh! I highly recommend trying this place you won't be disappointed!

The town itself is quaint, and this felt like a perfect place to grab a bite before heading into the park. We ordered the wild game chili, which was really flavorful and hearty, along with the loaded tots, which were a fun addition to the meal. Inside, the space has great decor with local artwork that adds to the overall feel of the place. It felt welcoming and fit the area well. Overall, a great stop for us and a place I would recommend if you are heading into Yellowstone from this entrance.

Think bean nachos but with fries instead of tortilla chips. The kids liked the chicken strips and fries quite a lot. I loved the bison burger, and was glad I ordered it cowboy style with bacon and grilled onions. The hunters pie (like a shepherds pie but with green beans, mashed potatoes, pulled pork, bacon and cheddar cheese) was also really good. Very cute cowboy decor and nice classic country music playing. It was fun.

Its like they torn a single piece of bacon into thirds, and called it 4 slices. 3.The scrambled eggs were under done. 4. Also, microwave the sausage a bit more, please. 5. Coffee was lukewarm and flavorless. 6. All the silverware was on the table. More than just for the seating, but enough for the day. Nice way to share germs, and ensure no one has a clean fork. Have I had a worse breakfast? Yes. Dehydrated eggs in boy scouts. But they some how made real eggs (I could tell by the shell) taste like bad powdered eggs. I'm still trying to identify the after taste. Maple maybe? I won't be back there. I'm sure I can find better food elsewhere, there at least two other places near it that serve breakfast, and the market sells protein bars. This is the kind of touristy place that gives a town a bad rap. Overcharging for bad food and hoping to get away with it.
