Elk Life Store

We love coming here while in town. There's always something nice to pick up at the store, but the real reason we stop by is the Elk Chili and Elk Hot Dogs!!!

It's been 2 weeks and we had to come back for more of the Elk Chili and Foot Long Elk Dogs with Everything. And of course the Awesome Ice Cream Waffle Cones. Everyone here makes you feel like family and good friends. We even got to see a nice Bull Elk right up the road from here.

My husband and I stayed in the area over the weekend. If I lived there, I would be at this place every day! We stopped in both days we were there. Everyone is super nice. The food was yummy, the warm cinnamon donuts were awesome! They have a little bit of everything to choose from. Great clothing and souvenirs! If you are in the area I highly recommend you check it out!

Elk Life!! Must go here —every trip up to our Emporium cabin! The coffee beats Dunkin Donuts and Godiva! Get a donut(fresh made) split with the best ice cream I’ve ever had. Come support small business n buy ur coffee grinds here n wonderfully useful souvenirs❣❣ LOVE THIS PLACE!!

The cinnamon mini donuts are delicious! We also had their hot cocoa, elk dogs, blue lemonade, and peach lemonade. All were very good and we received our orders quickly even with it being busy! Their gift shop is also very nice! One of our favorite stops during our trip we went twice during our weekend visit!

My new addiction Elk life apple ice cream! OH my so good. Perfect fall treat. Had to go more than once on my recent trio to benezette. For elk photos. Spending some much need time with the woodland creatures. You can get breakfast lunch or dinner here as well. Cute gifts and clean restroom. Must stop if you are in town.

My family loves Elk Life. The service is amazing and always friendly. We live almost 2 hours away and every time we go to Benezette, Elk Life is a “must.” We typically go on Sundays after staying at our camp before returning home. The service, atmosphere, food, and shopping are wonderful. Tonight (12/1/2023), Elk Life hosted a Christmas event with Santa, Benny (the elk), and 2 Grinches. We drove almost 3.5 hours just for this event because we love everything about Elk Life. The service was exceptional even with the enormous turnout. The gift bags for the children were stuffed full. They also provided the guests with hot cocoa and hot dogs, free of charge. Their kindness to new and returning customers never ceases to amaze me. If you get a chance when you’re in the area, stop in and check out their quality merchandise, great food, and friendly service.

Stopped here to get coffee on a rainy day. It was crowded and this place has a lot of great items. We got the hot dirty chai latte and absolutely loved it. Our friends who got the hot chocolate said it was the best. The French toast was also great. Friendly staff too and reasonable prices. Wish they had some non meat savory items on the list . The only options were breadsticks and pretzel sticks, but wish there was a vegetarian sub or sandwich or panini.

Get the donuts! Great spot for a quick bite to eat. Super friendly staff and atmosphere. Dog friendly. Breakfast, lunch and kids options, coffee and ice cream. Cool "elk life" merch available too

Get the Cinnamon Mini Doughnuts! They are to die for.

This place is really great though. All of their food offerings, coffee, ice cream, and Swag are awesome.

Definitely coming back next time I visit the Elkies!

My husband and I stopped here. We were beyond pleased with our experience. Food is great, we loved the coffee and the gift shop. THANK YOU FOR CARRYING PLUS SIZES!!

All of the staff were extremely inviting and nice. The entire experience we had was just amazing. We will be returning here on our next camping trip!

Absolutely hands down the best spot in town!! We stop here multiple times each trip. The owner is awesome and so nice. We’ve never had a bad experience and even had the owner whip up “surprise” dishes for and they have been amazing. The ice cream is phenomenal and so are the flavored sodas!

Cool spot with the BEST ice cream(Perry's). They have fresh donuts and even bubble tea! The staff was so friendly and accommodating. Can't wait to come back and visit again.

Cool store with great merchandise. Good Food, coffee and iced cream. We always try to stop when we are in town.

Great atmosphere, cheap food, good ice cream, friendly staff, a good landing pad for anyone dropping by Bennezette

Friendliest store in Benezette! Great selection of Perry's ice cream and fresh mini donuts that will melt in your mouth! It's a MUST every time I visit from Florida! Make sure to stop by and check out the store and the donuts!!

We’re big fans of everything Elk Life.
We like stopping every time we visit Benezette. Great coffee, homemade donuts, and lots of other goodie’s to enjoy. We find the clothes to be very high quality. We also find something new every time we visit.
I highly recommend this local small business.

We loved this place- ate all of our meals here on our little getaway!
Great prices, kind staff and sweet atmosphere to sit and relax.

The best place in Benezette!!! Go there....you won't be disappointed!!! Great shop. Great service and food. Staff is top notch!!!

Loved this place. We had Elk hot dogs...so good. Also tried the Wicked Elk iced coffee, and it was awesome. The guy there was so nice and very helpful. Would love to stop in again next time we visit.
