Wish we had gone to The Raven .... Service sucked. Â The kids wanted the brown bag lunch to eat in, but the waitress said it was "too difficult" for the cooks to make it on a plate rather than in a bag. Â She said that we could only order it to go. Â Really. Â So we ordered it to go and it took 25 minutes to receive it. Â It was not busy when we arrived (or when we left).
Review Source:Remodeled in 2012 with a larger seating area. Great place, especially for breakfast. We are seasonal employees in Yellowstone Park and occasionally stop here for breakfast on our days off before entering the park. Â Very friendly staff and great home style food. Â A real "local" cafe.
Review Source:It has Lounge in the title above but it is far from being a bar as you can get.
A diner experience without the theme of the fifties to go along with it. Think Cowboy Diner and then you will not be so disappointed with the decor.
So you ask what is good about it? Â The food is fantastic along with the price! Â You can get stuffed for under $10 bucks. Â It does not have windows or things like that so if you are by yourself bring a paper or read one that someone else left and enjoy the steal of the century!
My family and I have come here twice during our Yellowstone vacations, both times for dinner.
While the Town Cafe is far from fancy, be sure to order their burgers - affordable, delicious, AND flavorful!
My only complaint with this Cafe is the service. We were 1 of 4 families in the entire restaurant, yet none of our dishes were cleared throughout the course of the meal. While our waiter was nice, our table was crowded with dirty dishes. The ice cream is also a bit overpriced, but it served as a nice dessert.
The Town Cafe is a hole-in-the-wall restaurant that is worth checking out for a quick lunch or dinner.
Gardiner, MT is a rather small mountain town that hugs the northern border of Yellowstone National Park. With no more than eight or nine hundred permanent residences the restaurant options can be  somewhat limited. One of the establishments that seems to endure from years past is the Town Cafe (which also has a Motel, a Lounge and a gift shop, as you can see by their name).
We have eaten breakfasts there on several trips and occasional dinners when other venues were not open or were too crowded.
Breakfasts are the meals that we enjoyed most at this location so that is what I am highlighting in this review.
They have many straight forward breakfasts that feature eggs, french toast, and giant platter sized pancakes along with the usual bacon, sausage and toast (expect to pay 50 cents more for rye or sour dough if you prefer those to white or wheat). Portions are generous and prices are comparable to other places in town that serve breakfast. When we visited Gardiner this summer there were only a couple of other places we found that seemed to be serving breakfast.
The wait staff was efficient and mostly friendly. Our waitresses on both our breakfast visits were able to keep coffee cups filled and orders straight even though the room was packed with customers and they were expected to cover a whole lot of tables.
The Town Cafe is not fancy but the food and service are pretty good and they have lots of customers so they must be doing something right.
