Overview

About This Establishment

Mountain Mama's Cafe stacks rustic Alpine fare in a stone-clad outpost. The Wild Game Breakfast Burrito grips with moist game meat and a hearty bite, while the Huckleberry Scones melt in your mouth with flaky pastry and berry brightness. Grab-and-go is primary with limited seating outside, and the line can stretch; the local ingredients pop with brightness. The Starbucks coffee bar keeps you fueled for the trail ahead.
