Michael Mangin

"Oh this store is a perfect rest area, amazing food in a seating that reminds you of the yesterday years. Loved the sign that read " no wifi for a reason try speaking to your neighbour". I did and realized the neighbour eating next to me lived just a block away from our California home and kids went to the same school...beat that!

A whole bunch of shopping options. If you are s Yellowstone forever member pls tell the cashier ore-hand and make life easier for them. Ample parking and clean restrooms"

George Koshy

"Another great General Store in Yellowstone. Similar to all the other General Stores, large selection of everything from souvenirs, clothes, groceries, fresh produce, household items, etc... They also have a Soda Fountain that makes fresh meals and desserts.

Good place for one stop shopping and taking a break while visiting Yellowstone."
