There is an old saying: “Don’t always judge a book by its cover.” The same goes for restaurants in Wyoming. Just because a restaurant doesn’t quite look up to par, it doesn’t mean that the food they serve isn’t good. Some of the best food in Wyoming can be found at some of the most unexpected places. Here is our list of the best unassuming hole in the wall restaurants in Wyoming.
This is one restaurant that you will not leave hungry. Silver Spur Cafe is a mom 'n pop style diner that is located at 832 N. Main Street in Sheridan. Be sure to try one of their cinnamon rolls, pancakes and omelet. This is a great stop for breakfast. If you're there for lunch, check out the bacon cheeseburger around.
If you are looking for a different dining experience, then check out the Kaffee Klatsch. For breakfast they serve breakfast sandwiches and for lunch, they serve dishes such as calzone, chicken cordon-bleu, a pulled pork sandwich and a German specialty. Kaffee Klatsch is located at 701 Washington Blvd. in Newcastle.
The Busy Bee is a favorite dining spot for both locals and visitors. Breakfast, lunch and dinner are served in a dining room that overlooks Clear Creek. Some of their dinner specials include chicken fried steak, ribs, steak and beef. The Busy Bee Cafe is located at 10 N. Main Street in Buffalo.

Although the interior isn't that appealing, the steak at Svilar's Bar And Steak House is exquisite. The recipes are originally from a Yugoslav family who fed the coal miners and cowboys. They also serve traditional Yugoslavian ravioli, sarma, homemade pickled goodies and bread. Their beef comes from local ranchers.
