American Restaurants near Volcano

“I love this place ! The food is mostly plate lunches tasty sandwiches/burgers, and fried stuff, but the quality is good and the prices are very reasonable. Bowling is fun but I’d recommend reserving lanes before going as they can get full fast. Also there’s a video game and billiards area. You don’t have to be Military to go here to enjoy either. My only dissatisfaction is that they are sometimes very understaffed to the point the workers look worn out and get temperamental from basic requests. But I do love this place and will continue to take my chances ?

Parking: Some parking lot areas, plus parallel parking options by the cabins.

Kid-friendliness: Bowling, video games, board games lounge area, nice restrooms.“

“I recently stayed at Kilauea Lodge and Restaurant and absolutely loved it! The rooms were charming and cozy, perfectly capturing the lodge’s unique atmosphere. Dining at the restaurant was a delight, with delicious food and a warm ambiance. Its proximity to Hawaii Volcanoes National Park made exploring easy, while the surrounding ferns, forests, and native bird songs added a magical touch. The well-managed, welcoming staff truly made it a memorable stay!“

“The view alone makes Uncle George’s Lounge worth the stop. Perched near an active volcano, it offers a rare vantage point to peer deep inside Kīlauea, watching steam rise from the far side of the crater.

Dining options near the volcano are limited, but this spot combines the experience of the scenery with excellent local-style cuisine. Prices are on the higher side, but considering the effort to get to the island and drive up the volcano, it’s absolutely worth it. A must-visit for both the food and the unforgettable view.“
