About Big Meadows Wayside

Big Meadows Wayside, located in a remote area of a National Park, offers surprisingly tasty and reasonably priced food. Although cell phone signals are unavailable, the restaurant's culinary dedication is evident. It provides a variety of camping gear, although some items, such as sleeping bags or pads, are overpriced and may be found at a lower cost at Walmart in Lurray. After a hike, visitors can enjoy a treat of peach ice cream and blueberry cobbler, with blackberry ice cream being a popular regular choice. The establishment also features a gift shop with various items, including clothing, souvenirs, and snacks. The cafe serves dishes like hot honey fried chicken, burgers, sandwiches, and breakfast items, all at decent prices. Guests often praise the delicious, fresh-tasting food and the friendly, attentive service of staff like Ashley. For dessert, the blackberry cobbler with vanilla ice cream is highly recommended and considered the best of all time, often enjoyed more than the blackberry ice cream pie. The patio offers a beautiful view, though many choose to dine inside to avoid bugs. Overall, Big Meadows Wayside makes camping easier with its good food, helpful store, and charming atmosphere.
