Fall menu items are starting this week at the restaurant. First up --> Pot Roast Dinner 😋

Cassic & hearty. The meat is a fatty cut of chuck roast that melts in your mouth. The sauce is a red wine and garlic base. We braise this low and slow all day. It is just a great classic All American dish.

$24 dollars, enough for 2 people to split!

This week, and going forward we are bringing back our weekly specials as we transition back into fall and winter. Clam chowder will be back before we know it!

It was a long hot summer. We cannot thank the locals enough for all the support this year. We are glad that breakfast has been going great, and if there are any dishes you want to see this fall, please let us know.

It's 'Reubee Tuesday'. We have Reubens all day today! 😋 A fan fave -- Rye bread, corned beef, swiss cheese, saurkraut, and housemade 1000 island. Classic and delish!

Plus, come treat yourself to a craft huckleberry soda (N/A). Super tasty, made and bottled in the USA, and with real cane sugar. Yum yum yum 🫐

"We stopped at the Snake River Roadhouse (Side Channel) after working and fishing all day. Best decision we’ve ever made. The staff were awesome, the service was amazing, and the food was better than I could have imagined. My Firebrand chicken sandwich was juicy and tasty, the sauce that they put on it is my new favorite sauce, and the fries were delicious. The New York strip steak was cooked and seasoned to perfection, the zucchini was so good, and the loaded baked potato was one done just right. Definitely gonna come again."

"Hot Spicy Chicken sandwich, a little messy, but worth it. Loved the french fries. Stopped on our way exploring Idaho with the family and it hit the spot. Would definitely eat here again and recommend it to others driving through."

THANKS FOR THE LOVE 🫶🏼
