4 Best American Restaurants near Tulelake

“great food and a sweet staff!! they even delivered our meal to the park across the street. ♥️“

“Incredible historical site just sitting out here in the literal middle of nowhere. Very minimal approach which treats the subject with dignity. I feel like the US army filled in the lava tubes after the Modocs were expelled, feel like they should try restoring one or two of them. The short loop feels longer because all the rock is volcanic and you could actually die if you trip and hit your head. But man. It almost made me cry. Poor Captain Jack.“

“My kids love pappy gander. I myself have personally taken them here on many occasions and never had an issue with food, service or anyone trying to tell my children what to eat or stop them from running back and forth across the booth lol. Thank-you for your wonderful service, excellent food and being so patient with those of us that have crazy kids on the loose! We will be back soon for some more Mickey Mouse pancakes:)“

“I ordered the western burger, curly fries, and a white chocolate caramel malted shake, and all were excellent. The burger was big, fat, and juicy, with crispy bacon and a large onion ring, with the perfect amount of sauce and cheese. The fries were hot and fresh, obviously made with fresh oil, and light on seasoning (which is great for me, but you may need to ask for salt if you like them saltier), while the shake was just the right thickness.

The two employees were quick and very friendly. The building itself has probably seen better days, but it's perfect for a little burger and shake joint, reminiscent of the 80s.

This seems like it'd be a perfect place to go if you're doing the Volcanic Legacy Scenic Byway journey, stopping in between Lava Beds and Crater Lake!

Kid-friendliness: It's the perfect place to bring kids for a shake!“
