Our Favorite Places to Eat in Star Valley

(Updated June 2025)

There's nothing quite like discovering a new favorite restaurant. Sure, we all have a special place in our hearts for a tried and true chain or two, but there's something rewarding about trying a new place and loving every bite. And if it has charm and character found nowhere else, all the better.

We've put together a sampling of some of our favorite spots to eat in Star Valley. But you don't have to take our word for it – each of these eateries has received glowing reviews. Whether you're just passing through, new to the area or simply a curious Star Valley native, you're sure to find a favorite or two of your own on our list.

307 Grill – Hey y'all! Another restaurant review! On or around 06/03/25, I ate at the 307 Grill. They're a food trailer that is usually parked at AJ's Liquor in Afton. They have the most succulent, juicy burgers (at least that's what I ate), with some pretty fresh toppings. I'm not fan of store-bought buns or rolls, but it would be hard to bake your own rolls in a trailer. And, since the burgers are a half-pound in size, I didn't care too much!

I had my burger with cheddar and Bleu Cheese (my personal favorite). And, they have delicious waffle-cut fries to boot. Give them a try and see if you don't keep going back. I'll try to get a menu to post.

They're there Tuesdays - Saturdays, from 11am-8pm (except special days/weeks like the Fair). Wed close at 7pm. Email: The307Grill@Yahoo.com. Click Here for a pic of their menu.

Mountain Creek BBQ & Catering – On or around 06/12/25, I ate at Mountain Creek BBQ and Catering, owned by Jim & Angie Turner. They're a food trailer that is usually parked in the parking lot of the Old Mill Ice Cream place, above Thayne. They are a unique place that will keep you coming back. I got the Chicken Potato meal (it has a particular name, but I can't remember it).

They cut a huge potato in half, and smother it with beans, chicken [or your chosen meat], sauce, and other stuff (onions, etc.), and add a scoop of sour cream. It's absolutely delicious. And, if you're with your spouse or significant other, it's too much to eat all by itself, so share it. I don't have days & hours, so call: 307-248-1535. Email: MtnCreekBBQ@GMail.com .
