Chuck Wagon
The Chuckwagon
The island's smallest restaurant, with just one row of counter seats where you can watch the owner cook breakfast and burgers. It consistently ranks near the top.
Chuck Wagon calls itself the smallest restaurant on the island, about 12 feet wide and 40 feet long, with a single row of counter seats where you can watch owner Don fry eggs and assemble burgers right in front of you. The breakfast signature is the Chuckwagon Special (two eggs, toast, hash browns and meat). At lunch, the burger lineup is extensive, including the PB&J burger, the olive burger and the blue cheese burger. Cash only, with limited seating, so expect waits at mealtimes. Expect about US$12–20 per person. Located near the Main Street ferry docks.
Opening hours
