“My Ruben sandwich was divine! I can't wait to go back and try another type of sandwich. Sammy was the best waiter! He was funny and very attentive. He took amazing care of us! I loved that there was a play area for my kids! They said it deserves a 5 star rating just for that! My kids also loved playing the Pac-Man game.The clean freak in me just wants to go back with a duster and bleach, and give the whole place a good scrub! The place just really needs a good cleaning! The hanging art was so dusty and the whole place was very dirty. Our table was sticky. And the books they do have, are not being well cared for. Almost an afterthought. Which as a book lover is very disappointing.However the food, specifically the sandwiches are definitely worth restraining my OCD tendencies. I'm sure the kitchen itself is cleaner than the rest of the place. My husband says the bathrooms were very clean, which is the most important place to have clean in my opinion. We will be returning!Kid-friendliness: Best place to eat with kids! Even more fun than Hat Creek!“

“If you enjoy solid grub and solid scenic overlooks this will be your spot! Enter from the main entrance or the quicker 'back entrance' way. The back winds around and then up towards the nature store and inside area where there is a little petting zoo with goats. I really enjoyed coming here on my way home from my trail race. It's a fun stop and you can do it along with exploring Fossil Rim. You can come without checking the park though free of charge. They have smaller single snack serving plate (veggies, hummus, cheese etc) or sandwiches and full meals. The sweet tea was pretty good and they also have hot chocolate for the kiddos, coffees, fountain drinks. Even on a rainy day I saw families and people coming to enjoy the overlook in the back. They have an area to sightsee and get views of the animals from the top. A must see if you are in the Glen Rose and Fossil Rim area.“
“This is such a beautiful little place. It has old school fashioned ice cream and floats. I had a banana split and it was everything I wanted! The store reminds me of an older all in one shop. It is decorated like a malt shop from the 50’s. There is so much to look at and buy here from miniature toys to bee’s wax products to t shirts. There is a little bit of everything for everyone to see while you wait for your delicious ice cream. When we got there we saw a sign that they were understaffed but this did nothing to the quality and speed of our orders. The two ladies working there were friendly, attentive, professional and courteous. We enjoyed talking to them. This is definitely a place i highly recommend.“
