Guests frequently describe these homemade hamburgers as delicious with many singling them out as particularly memorable. The dinner options, although limited mostly to burgers and a few additional dishes, are often deemed simple, affordable and very tasty.

However, the menu is decidedly narrow and some guests express a desire for more variety and meal options, especially considering the lack of nearby restaurant alternatives. This limitation can be inconvenient, particularly given the hostel's remote location, which makes dining out or getting food delivery less accessible and more costly.

While some reviews appreciated the reasonably priced and adequately simple fare, others found the restaurant pricing high relative to the food quality. The absence of food service during the day and early restaurant closures further emphasized the restricted dining options.
