Mono Cone - Lee Vining, California

The burgers seem small for the price, but they are that much better than McDonald's or Carl's Jr. They're about the size of a Shake Shack burger and possibly taste better. I had the pepper burger (a jalapeno burger) and it was great. Plenty of jalapenos without being overpowering. The lettuce was fresh and the burger patty was juicy and grilled to perfection. I also ordered a mixed shake of coconut and pineapple. It has lots of coconut and chunks of pineapple. The only complaint would be the normal straw which made sucking through it almost impossible, but the shake tasted great just taking the lid off and enjoying it without the straw.

The burgers are really good and the chili dog. The fish was a bit dry. The bathrooms are really clean. They have an eating area outside and few tables inside. Overall I would recommend this place.

Stopped for a quick bite. This place had good food, though a bit of a wait. The women's restroom was out of service. They still had up some Halloween decorations that were cute. We got a cheeseburger, a corn dog, and fries. They serve Pepsi products and Dr. Pepper.

My pineapple shake was thick and delicious.
There are plenty of outdoor picnic tables on the property where you can enjoy your meal. There are indoor tables as well. Restrooms are behind the main building near the picnic area.

Cash only! Luckily we had enough cash on us.

Good soft serve ice cream and shakes! We didn't try the other items on their menu. They only have three flavors (vanilla, chocolate, or swirl) and only two dipped options (chocolate and butterscotch).

There's a small room to the side with small tables and chairs for indoor seating. There is a cute outdoor patio with seating behind too.

There is usually a line out front to order from the window but it moves pretty quickly. The guy taking our orders was friendly.

The sundae chocolate ice cream with wip cream and nuts is delicious here. If anyone orders this. It can be enough for 2 people. I would recommend buying one for 2 people. It was too much ice cream for me, to be honest.
They have private single restroom 🚻.
Nice place to eat dessert or a snack.

Mono Cone has been a tradition for our family for many years. It’s a very popular place so you’ll wait in line, 10-20 min. They have good food, great ice cream choices. They have about 5 picnic tables in the back, they also have about 4 tables in part of the building. Our favor place to eat our lunch is down the street, left side of Mono Cone, end of street turn left, your at a park with picnic tables playful for kids. There is also a historical school house and an upside down house. Not sure of the days and times they are open. Good view of Mono Lake from the park.

I did not try their ice cream, but their food is delicious. It is a great option to stop by during a road trip.
