78 Main Street Eatery

We wanted to try something a little different since we visit this town quite often and always eat at the same locations. We decided to try this restaurant today for dinner. Lindsay was our server. I had the Malibu chicken burger without the bun the chicken was a tad dry, but other than that it was delicious, my daughter had the bacon and cheese burger meal and the patty was flavored and so delicious. We liked their french fries. We will definitely try this place again as I would love to try them for breakfast next time.

Great food with equally great service. We really liked their sandwiches and the sweet potato fries.

Great place with delicious food. Very delicious home cookin'! The salmon was so yummy and I LOVED their sweet potato fries! 😋

The fish and chips were some of the best I have had in awhile. It cones tasty homemade tarter sauce and the fries are also hand cut home fries. Food is delicious. 10/10 recommend coming here.

We ate breakfast here and the kids are already planning to get omelets when we come back next year. The two that ordered omelets said it’s the best they’d ever had. For the record, one had never eaten an omelet before. 😂 The other two kids ordered a stack of pancakes to share and still couldn’t finish. The gravy was amazing and the Bloody Mary was out of this world.

Side note: the kids color page is a scratch off with no crayons needed, which is awesome in theory, but be prepared for the ‘nails on a chalkboard’ noise when they use a plastic spoon to scratch the colors.

We come here every time we hit up Lava, this is the first time we’ve come for breakfast, which was so good! Nicole took great care of us and was great to work around our odd requests and I loved that they had a gluten free toast option! Will definitely be back.

We went here for breakfast and for dinner the same day. It’s that good! Home style and delicious. Staff is friendly too.

I had French toast with eggs for breakfast. That was the perfect size for a medium to small apetit. The French toast was yummy and you get real maple syrup. The person I was eating with had a southwest omelet was so good and those potatoes were great. It even came with avocado.

For dinner I recommend the monthly special burger. The beast burger is great. I also liked the huckleberry heffiwisen. It was a subtle huckleberry and tasted great

Our go-to spot in lava hot springs. We always sit at the bar. Meghan is the best server! This is definitely not the place for you if you're in a hurry. The food does take a bit to come out, but it's worth it. Huge portions, good quality, great prices. We really enjoyed the BLT and the turkey sandwich. Bacon is thick cut and good quality. Really good gravy. I love that they offer pumpernickel bread, so rare to see that.

They open at 8am and do serve alcohol at that time.

Really good house wine for $5 and huge pours!! The overall wine selection is very good! I hope they continue to have champagne other than Cooks or Andre.

Pick up order, ready on time. Friendly service even when they were super busy and fresh tasty food. Turkey club with steamed veggies, hamburger with fries and side salad. The ranch is awesome. May eat here every day during our lava stay.

Very good, local, and convenient place to eat. Service was great as well. The 78 Main burger is a must have....

We had a wonderful server and the Grilled chicken strawberry salad was the best! I think it was called the summer salad. We came in April so it wasn’t busy but it was a great option considering there wasn’t much open.

So delicious! We stopped in for a quick bite and had great service. We were able to be in and out and did not feel that the wait time was taking too long at all. It was so fun and really cute small town diner vibes. My husband got the french dip sliders with sweet potato fries. I got the philly cheese steak sandwich with potato fries. DELICIOUS!

We ate twice at 78. Once for dinner and once for breakfast. Our dinner was fantastic - honey glazed salmon. It was perfectly cooked and so tasty!! The service was great!
We returned two days later for breakfast. The inlets were huge and delicious! Thee country potatoes were crisp, but not over cooked. A lot of food!!
We would gladly return. The service was excellent!!

Good homestyle food with generous portions. French fries are delicious. Onion rings cooked to perfection. Rings are cooked to perfection and don't come apart when you bite into them. My wife ordered the beer battered grilled cheese sandwich which we split. We both thought it was really good. A shout out to our server, Daniella. She was very friendly and helpful.

HOLY MOLY MARCONI THE MAC AND CHEESE WAS 🔥🔥🔥STAFF WAS VERY FRIENDLY AND ABSOLUTELY FUNNY LIKE RAMSEY STYLE. GREAT RESTAURANT TO GO BEFORE OR AFTER THE HOT SPRING!!!💯

OMG! Breakfast was awesome! We had the cream filled french toast and a veggie omelette. The French Toast was light and fluffy, not sure how they managed that with the cream. They were topped with fresh strawberries and whip cream. The omelette was expansive...lots of veggies and the eggs were light and airy. Coffee was top notch and never ending. Server was cheerful and prompt.. Great customer service. We were traveling thru and would definitely come back!!

Our breakfast was wonderful. The pancakes were light and fluffy and the eggs cooked perfectly. Nicole is a great waitress, so attentive and responsive. Great place for breakfast.

We had a great time here. The building was clean and nicely updated, the service was excellent, the drinks were strong, and the food was delicious. I had the beer battered grilled cheese and a Moscow mule. The artichoke dip is phenomenal. Definitely a great place to stop.

This was our first trip to Lava and I was pleasantly surprised at our experience. Much better than expected.

Overall, we ate at 3 places and we didnt find any top notch eateries in Lava Hot Springs. They are locally grown and with a hometown flair.

The food was good, and the service was ok, but the whole town seemed a bit laissez faire, but that is what the town experience is for.

We will be back.

Just got into town needed a quick meal had a chicken spinach salad with out the strawberries so they exchanged them for mandarin oranges it was wonderful. Very priced fair.
