About Latchstring Restaurant

Latchstring Restaurant offers excellent meals with great views of the canyon. The caramel roll is a must-try, covered in luscious buttery caramel sauce. The chislins and eggs breakfast is very good. Visitors can enjoy the cozy atmosphere and top-notch service. The blackened trout and garlic potatoes are wonderful, followed by a delicious warm apple pie and hot cocoa with Bailey's. The restaurant is dog-friendly, and guests can sit on the puppy patio, making it a pleasant stop for travelers. Many visitors have praised the outstanding food, quick service, and friendly staff, recommending a visit for anyone exploring South Dakota. The back patio offers a beautiful view of the cliffs and forest, perfect for relaxing with a burger or a beer. Located at the top of Spearfish Canyon, the restaurant provides scenic mountain views, and some guests enjoy sitting in bubble chairs with heaters, adding to the unique experience. The restaurant is open seven days a week, serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Guests can choose between indoor seating or the outdoor patio with magnificent canyon views. The huge baked trout draped on a Garden Salad is highly recommended as a tasty alternative to steak or hamburgers, and the lobster dinner is exceptional value at $35 for two lobster tails with a baked potato and salad. The food and presentation often impress visitors, and the staff, including Kayla and Rachel, are praised for their excellent service during private events like reunions. After meals, guests can enjoy a short 0.75-mile hike to Spearfish Falls behind the restaurant, making it a worthwhile stop for travelers passing through the area.
