Old Miners Cafe - Yermo

If you're looking for lunch in Calico, Old Miners Cafe is definitely the best choice. There were two other restaurants when I visited Calico, but this place had the largest selection. The hot dogs are grilled, not boiled. The fried pickles and zucchini are DELISH! Turkey burger was also full of flavor. Lots of patio seating available with views that are just spectacular. Service was friendly! I highly recommend Old Miners Cafe as the top choice for getting food in this old mining ghost town!

Traditional American food at a great price. Don't worry though, the quality of the food is good. I had a burger with cheese and a hotdog. Both were fresh and delicious. If you sit outside, you'll have the best view to eat long with. The lady who took the order is the cook and show knows how to make that burger nice and fluffy. I'd recommend this place. Good experience.

If you're visiting Calico this is a great place to stop and eat. The food is hot and comes quick and they have lots of options. The chicken strips and fries were good but nothing to write home about. But the fried pickles were delicious! I was a bit worried when I first arrived and saw that most of the seating was outdoors, but despite the desert heat the shade and the breeze made the outdoor eating area perfectly comfortable. Plus you get the bonus of beautiful views of the Calico hills.

Absolutely wonderful staff!!!! Talkative, energetic, and always helpful!!! I will always recommend people to eat at the Miner’s Cafe whenever they go to Calico.
