Lucky Buck Cafe

Came here for breakfast with a friend on our way to yosemite and for dinner on our way back. Very good food! Jessica and Charity were our waitresses. Very personable and positive energy which goes a long way. Food was great too. Their pancakes reminded my friend of her grandma's. For dinner we got the steak and also salmon. Cooked perfectly and the steak was better than Texas roadhouse I kid you not. Will be returning every time I make a trip to yosemite that's for sure!

08/07/25 Food: The food here at Lucky Buck Meadows was really good, as well as filling. The food was a bit pricey, with each meal costing an average w $20-30. The burgers were huge (both regular sized and it the kids meal), and it was nice how you can substitute a side for something else. Furthermore, if you get a soft drink, you get free refills!! Service: The service was great - we had a kind and attentive server and the wait time was decent. Atmosphere: The decorations inside Lucky Buck cafe display Yosemite and the greater area, however it is a bit bizarre how the have tourist stuff inside the restaurant (such as keychains, license plates, pens, etc) which makes the atmosphere shift a bit.

Really enjoyed our breakfast and coffee before a day out in Yosemite National Park. Paid a bit extra to share one breakfast (the portions were huge), and they were kind enough to split everything across 2 plates for us.

Stepping into this place felt like discovering a hidden gem, a delightful oasis on our recent trip! From the moment we walked in, we were struck by how immaculately clean everything was, even the restrooms – a detail I always appreciate. The vintage decor gave it such a unique and charming atmosphere, almost like stepping onto a movie set. But it wasn't just the ambiance that impressed us; the food was fantastic. We opted for FrenchFries, and honestly, it was a much better experience than you'd find at a typical chain. My hot chocolate was particularly good – rich and comforting. The onion rings were also a highlight, clearly fresh and perfectly crispy. While some items might not be made entirely from scratch, the overall quality was definitely there. The service was top-notch. The staf

We stayed at the Yosemite Rose B&B down the road. As the Lucky Buck was close, we thought we would give it a try for dinner. We never went anywhere else for the entire week. Food is basic American diner food, well prepared with generous proportions. Service was fast and friendly even when they were swamped. We will absolutely dine here when we return.
