Enjoyable stop with some good vegetarian options as well. Possibly even made vegan if you ask.Had a big burrito with some minced beyond meat inside and it was great. Tasty and very filling, as a burrito should be.Owner was very friendly. Was about to leave for an errand when we arrive but decided to go back into the shop to serve and cook for us. Super nice.The place itself is a restaurant at an RV ranch and has an awesome western vibe. Loved our short little visit here.Vegetarian options: They have some vegetarian options prepared either beyond meat.

Charming place full of character, basic diner food that isn't so basic. Very warm, cozy Cafe. Prices are reasonable, service is good, and the fries we had were perfectly fried. My quesadilla was yummy and the hot water for my tea was Super hot, not just Luke warm.There are lots of little things you can look at to shop and buy while you wait for your food. While it was chilly outside, it was nice to be in a warm Cafe where you can hear the cook/owner singing away to the radio as he made our food. :-)Kid-friendliness: Fun quirky decor that kids and adults would love

As we stuffed our car full this morning with food we didn’t need anything except a good cup of coffee and that’s what we got here. Straight black from original Peruvian beans. Never tasted better than during our trip to Death Valley. Besides as the 190 was closed we asked for a detour advise. So helpful. 💋In return I cleaned the restroom a bit

This is a really cool and quirky little place on the edge of Death Valley National Park. We had a delicious lunch here, which were good size portions with some really interesting choices of drinks including locally produced and/or brewed. The staff were also really lovely! The toilets were really nice and clean. We didn’t stay here but it seems like a beautiful place to stay in one of their tepees.

When we rolled up on a Wednesday afternoon and the door was locked with a sign that said to call for service, I was skeptical but don’t let the small operation deter you. The one man show that day was actually quick and delicious. We had the breakfast burrito, beyond burrito (no cheese), bean and cheese burrito and BLT. The fries were addicting and the chocolate shakes were classically good.I know someone said jt was overpriced, but it’s not some fast food joint, so I’d say it’s worth it as far as value. We had all of the above plus 2 bottles of root beer for $80 and sat outside in the shade.Vegetarian options: They have beyond burger or burrito and can also make a veggie burrito. The guy was very accommodating and had some additional suggestions.Kid-friendliness: There’s a little side yard where kids could run around. We had our dog too.

Solid food for the price point, we had friendly and attentive service from Eric who was running the entire cafe by himself, all with a smile and a positive attitude!Olancha Cafe is a quaint abode attached to a revivalist tipi resort (taste debatable). Very quiet and peaceful, a friendly and lovably chubby black labrador dog roams free outside, beckoning you to throw his favorite toy: a shim-like piece of plywood.Ordered a Beyond burrito and garden salad, ingredients were fresh and the food was delicious considering the location of the cafe being in the middle of nowhere of mountain country.Would absolutely recommend to someone looking for affordable delicious food while supporting a mom & pop business.Vegetarian options: Beyond meat protein options, salads

Fantastic place with great food!! The lovely cafe owner made us shakes and salad after hours so that we wouldn’t go home without a meal. She is so lovely and lots of food options from salads to steaks and veggie burgers! Seasonal breakfast flavors as well - have to stop in if you’re nearby!

Simple cozy and cute tipi's. Friendly staff and good breakfast food from the cafe. There's not much else around, but you can easily hear passing cars and trucks from the main road. We would love to return.

Shannon is the best. Ever notice how the right person (and attitude) can make it break a place? That's her. Food is fine, ambience is rustic, staff is great

Had to call in when we arrived at restaurant, it was a slow day, but that was new for me. A very friendly man arrived to take our order and presumably cook our food. Burgers were great! not this mans first time on a grill. The fries were a bit sub-par, I think they were blanched and reheated, but not a big deal. Atmosphere is about what youd expect from a small restaurant in the middle of the desert. No complaints, seem like nice people.

The staff were more than welcoming and the food was amazing! I highly recommend you stop in for a meal as you travel, or consider the camping accommodation!

Not a nice place! We arrived for dinner at 5:45 pm. According to google: open. The owner (?) came out. He said the cook would be late an additional 1h45min. Well, sometimes it happens. I asked if he could sell us a glass of hot water then, because our 3-year-old son is very hungry and we have ready-made porridge, which just needs to be poured. Of course he can't, they don't have boiling water, only in the coffee machine. Or maybe a microwave? stove? I'm asking. "We do not have". - he says. Thank you for such treatment, a hungry child and no update on google. I will definitely not be back.

Their website said they open at 8am-10pm we arrived at 3:30pm for lunch. Two guys were outside drinking and one asked if I had a reservation I said no he said they weren't open yet. He was rude & we felt unwelcomed we also didn't see anything on their website that we would need a reservation. Maybe they should update their website cafe hrs . We were really looking forward to try out this cafe but nope definitely won't stop again👎🏼
