Restaurant in the tiny gold rush town of Priest, serving standard American food: burgers, brunch, sandwiches, etc. The small selection of outdoor equipment for sale hints that the restaurant's main business is as a roadside stop on the way to and from Yosemite. The mist machines outside are a nice touch for hot summer days, and good vegan options are available. (updated Aug 2023)
