Owned and operated by the same family since 1952, it's now the grandchild of the Park's founder who's in charge. The charming dilapidated diner decor remains. A variety of berry pies, including of course huckleberry, are still the speciality, along with hearty breakfasts ($8 for a short stack of huckleberry pancakes) and burgers. Reasonably priced mains such as a hot roast-beef sandwich and fish and chips are also good.
