Patti's Thunder Café

Northern Mountains


Homey and hip, this is the best place in town for breakfast, and the vine-shaded patio is a lovely way to start the day. The menu has plenty of meaty or vegetarian options and portions are huge. Try the 'vegetaters' (roasted veg and potatoes smothered in cheese). The restaurant is a no-cell-phone zone so bring a friend or a book.
