Restaurants near Yosemite Valley

“While the Yosemite site says that reservations are strongly suggested, we did see open tables and saw groups without them being seated. Online also says there is a dress code but we overheard this was no longer the case. Surprisingly nice cocktails and menu-better than standard fare. Friendly service.”

“Summing up our experience with a poem from a dear friend - M.K

"Beautiful getaway, fire n wood debates, s'mores to glow stick shine, gummies with some smiles, cooking chaos to shuffling songs...all in all a cozy weekend with lots of grey mountains all around :) "

Our airstream was great , our group was fun !
Facilities on site were good, parking was a little tricky, but if you search closely, you will always find a spot

We will be back :)

“Had the halibut, unusual preparation... delicious! Enjoyed our meal, the ambiance & service. Pricy, fresh & totally enjoyable... would return. Busy & a bit noisy, but everyone seemed happy with their selections.”

“everything the lodge was beautiful the service excellent the view from our table was gorgeous watching the water fall and the deer that came up outside was incredible will keep coming back”

“Tasty bites for everyone. Quick, efficient service at normal ark prices...i.e. a bit high, but convenience is everything. The Peets Coffee staff deserve a special shout out as they appeared severely understaffed and rose to the occasion!
The blowers above the entrance doors are obnoxiously loud...but I'm sure there's a method to their madness.”

“Casually stopped by after a long hike for some beverages and snacks. Good service and decent food offerings. Great atmosphere overall and good selection of adult beverages.”

“Stopped off for a quick lunch and were surprised by the quality and price. Being in the park we expected it to be more expensive. The chilli bean soup was delicious and the freshly made sandwiches were fine. Nice and cool inside and very clean. Friendly service.”

“Honestly can’t fault the food or service. We went on a busy Friday and ordered the chicken tenders, pulled pork sandwich, onion rings and fries. We really enjoyed our food- it was hot, tenders were crispy and chicken moist. The fries and sandwich were also great. The onion rings were also really crisp and hot when we got them. It took less than 10 mins for food for 4 people to come out. Server was friendly and patient. Not to mention the food was really reasonably priced especially considering where you are. Will be visiting again.”

“Great staff who ensured that we had an enjoyable stay.”

“Ate all meals during 3 day stay. Despite limited menu offering food was good value. Price were reasonable and the portions good. You cannot compare to fine dining and really disagree with low ratings! FU I but do avoid the Meadow Lake Grill around the corner!”

“Good breakfast inside the park. The coffee corner offers small tables inside with a pleasant fireplace. The atmosphere that the fireplace gives in the midst of the mountains is priceless. Good sunrise roll.

Parking: Wide availability of parking outside near the venue.”

“Amazing food and our server was very attentive. The service was quick and hassle free. The only disappointment is the view, as much of the falls is covered by trees so the view isn't truly appreciated.”

“Espresso drink was made within 2 minutes, but food took over 20 minutes. I'd recommend you eat at the main restaurant instead but just get coffee here if Starbucks is your jam. That said, if this is "roughing it" out in the wilderness then life ain't too bad.”

“Beautiful - Historical - Attentive The Ahwahnee is an amazing dining experience, but you pay for it. The food and service was spectacular, however if you are into views of nature, architecture and history, that will blow you away. I ate breakfast there, cheapest meal of the day plus no dress code requirement, I dressed in my best shirt and shorts I had packed, I was dressed similar to most others. (Dress code for dinner) We had to choose the buffet. There was a good amount of selection on the buffet, but I've typically seen more selection, still what they did have was everything you would want and top shelf. If I get the chance to go to Yosemite again, I am going back to the Ahwahnee, maybe I'll bring clothes for the evening and plenty of cash.”

“GREAT pizza!! Meat lovers - yum! Veggie lovers - same! Dined there twice in four days! Get there early - the 5:30 rush is significant - still worth the wait! Hint: get the same beer (or better!) at the Village Store (around the corner) instead of the 1899 bar - $13 vs $4 for 23oz Firefall Red vs 32oz (2x 16oz cans). 12oz can of Modelo - $1.50 vs $9 draft.”
