At Goosewing Ranch in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, we pride ourselves on many things, and one element guests continue to praise is our outstanding food. When staying at a dude ranch, guests have had an activity-filled day, often spent horseback riding. So naturally, everyone works up an appetite! We’ve got the menu covered with diverse offerings and made-to-order entrees that are sure to hit the spot.
With all the activities to do while on vacation out West, dude ranch guests develop an abundant appetite. From hiking in the Grand Tetons, touring through Yellowstone National Park, and horseback riding in the mountains surrounding Goosewing Ranch, you will enjoy the delightful meals being served.
Jackson Hole Dining: Goosewing Ranch Is for Food Lovers
Most meals are served family style in the Main Lodge where we have 3 chefs on staff. Our outdoor kitchen and dining area is a wonderful place for all to enjoy meals and family time. The outdoor dining area features a wood burning oven, covered seating, lighting, and propane above head heaters.
Breakfast
Breakfast is complete with eggs cooked to order, bacon, sausage, pancakes, French toast, and daily specials. In addition, there is a continental buffet with cereal, fruit and homemade pastries.
Lunch
Lunches are usually trailside picnics, but hot lunches are also prepared if you decide to stay at the ranch during the day. We can also provide picnic lunches if you would like to go off on your own for the afternoon. Picnic lunches are your choice of deli sandwich, chips, fruit, granola, and cookie.
Dinner
Dinners are themed, and can include Prime Rib Night, Southwest Night, French Night, Cowboy Night (steaks), and Angler Night (trout and salmon). Depending on the cuisine, meals may be served plated or buffet style.
Once a week we do an open fire cookout in dutch ovens. Enjoy an evening under the stars with friends and family while enjoying entertainment! We encourage families to be together, but will be offering a kids’ cookout and adults dinner throughout the week.
Dining options for dinner include at least two main entree options, a vegetarian option, gluten free option, and a kids’ option. We can accommodate dietary restrictions with advanced notice.
Chef Clint will be serving up some amazing cuisine from basic ranch style food to more gourmet meals.
Wine List
We are pleased to offer a variety of wines from France and South America in keeping with both the French heritage of the area and the owner of the ranch. We are dedicated to giving you the best value possible, and our prices reflect that. Wine by the bottle is offered at retail price, while wine by the glass echoes restaurant price. We would be more than happy to stock a special bottle of wine for you to enjoy during your stay if you let us know before your arrival.
