Wind Cave National Park Restaurants

If you're determined to dine in Wind Cave National Park, be sure to pack your own meal because, other than vending machines, the only dining venues inside park boundaries are the two picnic areas near the visitor center and Elk Mountain Campground. The towns beyond the park offer additional options. Deadwood claims some of the best-ranked restaurants in South Dakota. Buffalo, pheasant, and elk are relatively common ingredients in the Black Hills. No matter where you go, beef is king.
