Historic shop in a small quaint town near the foothills of the Big Horn Mountains. We stopped on our way back from a daytrip into the Big Horns for lunch and a chocolate malt. Nice outside sitting area with interactive historic buildings. Mining for the kids. We had chocolate malts and shared a grilled cheese. Both were great. Interesting shop inside with many items from years past. Definitely worth a stop.

Beautiful historical building preserved by the owners for everyone to enjoy. Lots of antiques for sale and a great banana split!!! The owners are nice and gracious. If your going through Dayton, you have to stop in, you'll be glad you did.

Delicious food and super friendly people! We got the Rustler Rueben Sandwich and the "Filly" Beef Sandwich. Both were amazing and then we got the Merc Mixer's which were way better than any DQ blizzard. Would definitely recommend stopping here!

Good Eats, fun atmosphere!Stopped in Dayton for supplies while on a camping trip in the Bighorns. Cute little town! The Dayton Mercantile is a shop and café. The make really awesome hot sandwiches that are kinda out of the ordinary and really hearty—well worth the price which was not high. Also great service, lots of coffee choices. The shop is a mix of western antiques (the owner was a rodeo clown so there are really cool pictures on the wall) and there’s new stuff too—simple souvenirs like magnets up to nicer stuff and art.

The Dayton Mercantile is small town Wyoming at its finest. The people that run the store are an absolute delight. Their giftshop is filled with unique items made by local artisans. They also have a small restaurant that serves delicious sandwiches (the patty melt is my personal favorite.) If you find yourself in this little corner of Wyoming, I highly recommend making a stop at the Dayton Mercantile.

We had an amazing time here. The sandwiches were made with love and the nice gals at the counter took really good care of us - filled us up with the Fanta float. Could not be more thankful for such great staff helping run such a great establishment. Thanks Aurora and others, and I can’t wait to go back :)

Lovely store and cafe with very generous-sized and tasty sandwiches. There is some indoor seating as well as several tables and chairs outside. We were completely charmed by Dayton, and this place is just a wonderful part of the town.

Would rate them higher then 5 stars if it was an option. Increadibly freindly staff and delicious sandwiches! The chocolate salted carmel malt was great too. One of the owners brought us upstairs to see the old ballroom upstairs where they have mounts from all over the world. Would highly reccomend stopping here if you're in the area.Kid-friendliness: Staff was awesome with my kids (especially one of them who was hangry).

The Dayton Mercantile is a must stop before heading up the mountain. From old time treasures for sale to the best ice cream, milkshakes and sandwiches in this area. You really need to put this on your list of places to stop. The service is great and the owners are super friendly. I will come back here for sure. Highly recommend.

It was a great store with lots of different items, nice staff, and yummy food. The gem mining was fun me and my sister let loose our inner child. The key was to be patient and look closely. It was fun pretending to be shifting for the real stuff, while getting some cool varieties of rocks and fossils.

What wonderful experiences we have had at the Dayton Mercantile! From the old timey decor to the delicious homemade sandwiches to the friendly customer service! A must stop before heading up the mountain! A little gem nestled in a beautiful little town at the base of the Bighorn Mountains!

Classic general store from 1882 (just 5 years after Custer's fateful battle). Today it features a soda fountain, antiques, and interesting tourist items. Definitely worth a short visit as it is on the highway thru Dayton.

The Dayton Mercantile was was a wonderful respite after a long cycling loop from Sheridan. My first visit last year I marveled at the wonderful remodeling the owner had done of the historic building. Dayton is really coming into its own as a gateway town to the Bighorns.

I remember this building when I was 4 years old and I am now 60 years old and this is my first time in the building since I was 19 years old.It has changed!Absolutely positively be sure to order a pizza it is cooked in a brick oven and if you have never had a pizza that was cooked in a brick oven those pizzas are dramatically different than ones you will get out of the freezer at Walmart or from Pizza Hut or Papa John's these are homemade pizzas cooked in a hearth. The place is very decorative very relaxed and the owners are exceptionally friendly and welcome you. You can dine alone and watch the big screen TVs or bring an entire group or large family reunions it has everything. When you are finished look at the one street town it's cute and has a great museum and then finish it out and continue toward the mountain there is a museum down there that is just awesome. Please be sure to get that pizza I don't care what kind of pizza it's going to be better than store-bought it's going to be better than Pizza Hut or Papa John's or Domino's I guarantee it if for no other reason visit the Mercantile for the '''just a pizza'''.

Everytime we stop here it is the best place for ice cream or a sandwich. Take home a bag of their kettle corn. This is a family owned and operated business. You MUST stop in!!!!
