Base Camp Eatery

Found this dining gem in Yosemite. I didn’t know it existed. Visited twice. Dined for dinner on a Saturday then grabbed some lunch on a Wednesday. Very different experiences on both days. Saturday: We we’re on our way back from the Firefall. We decided on ordering here because there tons of people everywhere and we thought it was going to take a long time to get out of the park and we didn’t want to go hungry. The eatery was very crowded. Long lines. There was one person on mask control. Many options on the menu. Warm soups are perfect on a cold night. I waited over an hour before I had my food in my hands. By this time the crowds exiting the park were gone. So I didn’t mind waiting inside a warm eatery. There was one cashier who seemed overwhelmed with the crowd because she was not so friendly. She was bothered that I asked her what number they were on the orders. The lady directing us to move the line was very patient. All the cooks and servers were nice. No one had smiles though. No complaints there. We had pepperoni pizzas. My pizza was over cooked and hard. I was too tired to complain and wait for another pizza. ~Wednesday: We ordered lunch. We had hamburgers and fires. No lines. No crowds. We got our lunch fast. The cashiers were friendly. Cooks and servers were kind. Everyone had a smile. We had our burgers to go so that we could picnic by the El Capitan by the meadow. The burger would have tasted better eating it warm at the eatery but the view was way nicer by the meadow.

I had the Mediterranean bowl - Entrees with 2 sides for $17.5 - Grilled Chicken, with Tomatoe Salad and Quinoa Mix , with Creamy Garlic. Good portion size, chicken was good, not spicy. Expensive but better portion size than the chicken sandwich. Also had the cheese cake which was super good.

Pretty good food @ pretty good prices. It hit the spot after camping for a few days. There are many meat substitutes on the menu as well. We had the Salmon, Chicken, and the tofu curry all were flavorful and satisfying served in large servings. The the dining area is cute too.

The food here was ok for the price. I wasn’t very impressed but it was nice to have a warm cooked meal every night after a long full day of big hiking. You’ll spend at least 16$ per person and it’s nice they have a hot food entree area or a …
