Your Guide to Restaurants in The Village at Mammoth

March 25, 2025

The Village at Mammoth is a hub for pre and post Mammoth Lakes adventures, including dining, shopping and events, no matter the season.

In the summer temperatures are just about perfect for renting a mountain bike, perusing the shops, or letting the kids play in a giant sandbox while sipping a drink on one of the many restaurant patios. Free movie nights and concerts really bring the space to life, paired with stunning alpine sunsets in the backdrop.

The winter season is just as magical. Skiers and snowboarders, winter tourists and even locals share in the enthusiasm that seems to be a part of the cold, alpine air. With easy access via the Village Gondola, The Village is an ideal spot for drinks, food and fun.
