It was a very busy night when we visited and the restaurant was very short staffed. After a wait we were very grateful for a table. The server was hilarious and made the meal ten times more enjoyable as we were laughing so much. The food portions are huge and everything was good. Recommended.

This Stage Stop is legendary for a reason. Our dinner of steak tips was spot on. I ordered a salad which was delivered as I had asked, and it was fresh. Dessert is not to be missed - Fry Bread with strawberry sauce - a perfect end to an exemplary meal.
PS: I received the Cheyenne Crossing cookbook as a Christmas present - among the BEST cookbooks I have ever received!

Had the sourdough pancakes - fair warning, one pancake is plenty. These things were huge and very filling. There is some buckwheat in the pancake which gives it a unique flavor that some may not like. The eggs, bacon and homemade pork sausage were really good. Cute gift shop for before or after your meal. Recommend. I've read other reviews that made me a bit leery, but don't pay attention to them. Nothing wrong with our experience at all.

I don't even know where to begin. Have been anticipating our visit to Cheyenne Crossing for days, because of the fabulous reviews.
Today, we went for a late lunch/early dinner and were seated right away. Having looked at the on-line menu, we knew we wanted to share a plate of onion rings ($5.99 online),
and I opted for a big, juicy bison burger. My sister ordered the rib sampler and said that they were good, although, doesn't "sampler" mean various kinds? All 4 ribs were exactly the same and came on a bed of frozen French fries. The onion rings price jumped up to $10.99 and came with 7 rings in various stages of overdoneness, also served on a bed of fries ?!?
The burger was overdone, dry, bun not even toasted and came with MORE fries, different from the others, also very dry.
Waitress was unattentive, and never once asked how our meal was. I mistakenly ordered a piece of the oh so famous carrot cake when we ordered our meal and was completely disappointed in it. I really wanted to love this adorable little place, but I left $50+ dollars there that I could have put to much better use.

We’ve been here before. It was not a good day today. The Indian Taco was horrible. The Chili on top was lukewarm and the fry bread was greasy. I have recommended this place to lots of people and I would be upset if someone told me to come here and this is the meal that was served. I never send back food but I sure wish I had!

Very disappointed had some cooking with Dave so the rest of the customers got bad meals. Had steak tips that were not good burnt, Indian taco that was way over cooked. Only bright side was the waitress Kim did a fantastic job

This cafe sits at the end of Spearfish Canyon on the spot of a stagecoach stop. It is a cute little place, nothing fancy. Food is tasty, prices are moderate, and the waitstaff are friendly and efficient. I would eat here again if I was in the area.

While our service and the food here was unique and very good on both our visit the Host “Jackie” was rude and indifferent. Even the Frontiers Women she was imitating “Calamity Jane”with her hat and fringed leather bag was probably a nicer person. When you pay over $35 for breakfast you should at least get a simple Thank you! But not from crusty old Calamity Jane, no sir! Other than the warm and charming Host the food was excellent but did take a long time to get it.. Its an adventure at Cheyenne Crossing!!

Sourdough pancakes, sumptuous skillets and one of the best fry breads I’ve ever had! Servings are huge so be aware when you order. I could taste the sourdough in the pancakes, not often I get pancakes that have real flavor to them. But the fry bread stole the show for me, meaty inside, with plenty of air pockets as well. I had it with butter, cinnamon and honey, and still had to take half of it home. If I return to the Black Hills region, I would drive 50 miles to eat here again!

For the last two years, every time we go to this restaurant, the hostess or host will say “It will be a ten minute wait” regardless of how many empty tables are in the dining area. It is evident that the intent of this is to have you shop and if you don’t, they will make you wait even longer. When we have waited we really enjoy the food but after waiting ten minutes last week, we were told it would be another fifteen minutes, so we just left. We are local residents, not passing tourists, and really wish they were more aware that not everyone wants to buy things.

Great home style food. You MUST try the Indian Fried Bread; both the Indian Taco and Dessert. My husband’s eyes were bigger than his stomach, so you might not want to order the double meat and beans as it’s not necessary.

We spend 4 days in the black hills, and this was the best little cafe of the whole trip. Great food, great prices. I had the steak and eggs which comes with biscuits and a cup of homemade sausage gravy. The only problem was that I did not discover this place until our last day in the area...

Stopped for breakfast with two other couples after many recommendations. It did not disappoint! The breakfast was delicious (the biscuits and gravy has paprika sprinkled on top to warn you though). Our server was spectacular as we were in a bit of a hurry and he did everything he could to get us in and out promptly. He recommended that we come back for their Indian tacos and their carrot cake, which we did on our way back through that evening (we just got one of each as a to go order so we could all try it). They were magnificent. A must stop if we ever travel there again!

Loved the rustic, cozy atmosphere of the interior& the lovely gift shop. Had heard rave reviews of the Indian Tacos, but they were unbelievably delicious. We were so happy that our friendly & efficient server, Bryan B, suggested we share one, as it was very filling & allowed us room to savor the best blueberry pie I had ever tasted anywhere. Will definitely be dining here next time I am in the northern Black Hills!

The lady working the checkout (I believe her name was Jackie) is extremely unpleasant and rude to all customers. She was rude to us as well as the five customers in front of me. She kept rolling her eyes at everyone, ignoring people when they were just making small talk, and very rude. I’m not usually one to complain, but whoever hired her needs to know she is definitely driving away business, especially in such a tourist heavy location. Other than that, great place, nice waitresses, and very good food.
