Northwest Wyoming has many restaurants. Anyplace you go, you’ll find basic Western fare such as steaks, chicken, and burgers; in Jackson there’s a wider selection, with menus listing everything from Mexican and Thai dishes to trout, buffalo, and elk. There are also a few fine-dining establishments in the region. Arguably the best steaks in all of Wyoming are prepared at Svilars', a steak house in the tiny community of Hudson, east of Lander.
This contemporary American steak house is located right on Jackson's historic town square and serves locally ranched beef, bison, and elk. Come for a fine-dining quality meal, but without the stuffy atmosphere. You may be sitting next to a member of the Jackson elite or a Wyoming rancher. Bring the family, and order the magnum meat chef's choice, a rotating selection of local beef and game served family-style.
Nora's is one of those inimitable Western places that have earned their keep as local treasures among their many loyal customers. Look for the giant trout on the roof outside. It's a great spot to catch a hearty weekend breakfast of pancakes or huevos rancheros that barely fit on your plate and dinner among the talkative locals. Among the imaginative dishes served at this casual log inn are honey-hickory baby back ribs, prime rib, elk tenderloin with blackberry-wine sauce, and nut-crusted trout, plus nightly specials. Soups such as pumpkin warm your bones, and there's wine by the glass and a kids' menu. You can dine in one of two large rooms or sit at the counter for quick service. Breakfast, but not lunch, is served on weekends.
The town's oldest saloon, known as the "Merc," serves refreshments in a room that has seen its share of gold miners, perhaps an outlaw or two, and certainly some ruffians. When you step through the doors of this 1893 building with tin ceilings, a massive back bar, and an assortment of mismatched oak tables and chairs, you may feel as though you've walked directly into an episode of Gunsmoke. At times a honky-tonk piano player is on hand. The menu includes steak, chicken, and seafood, plus sandwiches and big burgers.
Among the homemade, blue-ribbon dishes served at this small restaurant in downtown Dubois are sandwiches, steaks, buffalo burgers, chicken, pork, baby back ribs, and fish. For dessert the peach caramel crisp and chocolate bourbon pecan pie are not soon forgotten. You can also grab a hearty breakfast and sip coffee alongside the cowboy clientele.
This crowded, noisy place serves large sandwiches, never-frozen half-pound hamburgers, and hand-tossed New York–style pizzas. In spring and summer you can sit on the garden deck while the kids play in the yard.
This fun, diner-inspired café with checkered floors and colorful booths serves up a hearty country-style breakfast all day and an assortment of burgers, sandwiches, and salads for lunch. There's also a full espresso bar and ice-cream selections. The front of the store is full of USA-made gifts and collectibles.
Folks pour in off the ski slopes for a lot of food and talk at this two-level restaurant with a bar and an outdoor deck. If you can endure the noise, you'll enjoy decent Alaskan halibut, buffalo meat loaf, and fish and pasta dishes. The place is adorned with antiques, including a full-size stuffed moose and a sleigh suspended from the ceiling. The bar is a popular nightspot, with live music and frequent performances by top bands.
Drop in for pancakes, French toast, omelets, and coffee for breakfast; or a buffalo burger, tuna salad, or Reuben sandwich for lunch. You can also warm your bones with beef vegetable soup, chili, and hot cider before stocking up on paper goods, groceries, sunscreen, soft drinks, two-cycle motor oil, pet food, and other supplies. Daily specials include meat loaf on Friday—a locals' favorite. Service ends at 7 pm so as not to compete with the neighboring Mercantile.
Lunch is served year-round and dinner is served in summer, but it's the breakfasts and home-baked pastries that are irresistible here. It's elbow to elbow inside, so you may have to wait to be seated on busy mornings, but any inconvenience is well worth it. In summer there's outdoor seating.
With almost everything locally sourced, from the food ingredients to the coffee, the Middle Fork serves up breakfast classics and lunch sandwiches with style. This trendy café is located in the historic 1918 Coolidge building and has a great selection of local beers, mimosas, and a Bloody Mary to start your morning right.
