The most popular restaurant in Hill City! Alpine Inn has two menu items: a filet with a potato or a vegetarian option. Come for lunch and try a completely different menu! Their salads are awesome. Expect a wait as they don't take reservations. Tip: Bring cash or a checkbook.

Things to Do
Looking for something to do inside? We love going to a play here! We have never been disappointed. Tip: Like many places in the Hills, cell phone service is very spotty here. You will also need a park pass which is sold in concessions.
