The Outpost - Mammoth Mountain

Incredible food but need to be a way to figure out lines

A great mello place for lunch. Big open deck with 2 converted steel containers with bench seats gas fire place. If it's cold, windy or snowing maybe not best but if nice sunny day it's great. Food, restrooms a bar.

Great food here and beer.. also music is being played. Has a few fire pits.. it's really cool

For many years, long before it was called the outpost, I've enjoyed outdoor lunch at the bottom of Chair 14. Very relaxing and laid back, it is a great place for a rest and to soak up some sun while taking a break from the skiing. A warm sunny day and low wind is a must as there is no wind break or inside seating. There are ample and clean restrooms available, and like all places in Mammoth free water. They've added a take out bar and the take out food stop keeps changing the name, it is currently called the Melt House, but the food is always good. You can bring your own food and drinks and just relax at the picnic tables. I've never seen it so crowded that you couldn't find somewhere to sit, and most people don't mind sharing their table with you. The have added a fire place in the last couple of years but that is usually crowded. Since it is far away from the Main Lodge, it is rarely crowded and it does feel like you are getting away from it all.

Best food on the mountain ...festival vibes ...come out and get yourself some of that great grilled cheese in the sky and say hi. I also work here. Also there is beer and wine as well as the high west bar pouring drinks on the snow cat.
