Customer Reviews
The Chuck Wagon came recommended to us and it didn't disappoint we stopped for an early lunch seating is limited wouldn't recommend big groups and there is a wait at times but the food is worth the wait. Its a very small restaurant as my picture shows.We got the rattle snake burger and the Aloha burger both were very good the food came out fast. They also serve breakfast as well which I hear is just as good. Highly recommend!!
Hidden Gem for Breakfast Lovers Review: If you’re in the mood for a breakfast spot that’s all about great food over fancy decor, this is the place. On the main drag, this little diner is pure comfort—a no-frills, casual joint with just a few tables, the aroma of coffee, and a kitchen that feels close enough to be home. The menu is straightforward, but everything is made fresh and with care. I tried the classic eggs, bacon, and pancakes combo, and every bite was just perfect. The pancakes were fluffy and golden-brown, the eggs cooked to order, and the bacon was crispy without being overdone. They also serve excellent coffee—strong and just what you need to kick off the morning. The best part? The prices are reasonable, especially for the quality and portions. Service is friendly, fast,
We ate lunch here upon the suggestion of our kayak tour guide. He said they had the best burgers on the island. I don't know if they are, but they were very good. The place is a diner and VERY small. However, we got a table as soon as we walked in. It was warm inside and cramped, but the service was friendly and quick. The guy in charge, possibly the owner, had a Bengals hat on and we immediately said "Who Dey" because we live in Cincinnati. He responded the same so I felt we had a little bond with the place. I had the Who Dey burger, which was a burger cooked on the flattop with pulled pork, onion rings, slaw, and a sweet sauce. It was very messy but yummy. My wife had the Blue Cheese burger and enjoyed every last bite. Their fries are non-traditional because they are cut in rounds on a
NOTE: CASH ONLY Best Burger on the island! We had a cheeseburger and it was delicious! Served on a pretzel bun, it was perfectly cooked, prepared quickly and served with a smile. The owners have been here for 16 years and run a fabulous business. A definite yes for a quick lunch on the island!
Breakfast at the Chuckwagon was interesting and delicious. We sat at the counter-seating is limited-and watched the cook at close range navigate the small space with expertise. He literally could reach behind his back for plates and everything else was a symphony of movement and efficiency. He worked the flattop like a conductor leading the band. Great place to hear the locals talk about the latest remodeling project and the fight at a local bar. Quite entertaining. Menu prices very reasonable by island standards. Short and to the point breakfast listings. The Chuckwagon Special-two eggs, toast, hashbrowns, choice of meats-was the choice of DW this visit. And it was perfect. Eggs, ham, and potatoes delicious. My choice was a little more on the sweet side. French toast made with cinnamon sw
