The food was delicious. Started with a pretzel which was cooked perfectly. I had the French dip and my date had the grilled cheese. Both sandwiches were delicious. A hidden gem.

Station dip was amazing but the real seller was the Mac and cheese appetizer. We got ours with jalapeno and bacon; it was to die for.

Cute lil restaurant. I had the fish & chips. Pretty decent except I thought the French fries were very salty. Great service, nice setting. Will probably go back but try something different.

One of our go to spots here in Tuolumne County. Steaks are awesome. But many things on the menu are great. I sometimes just order the nuts, cheese and fruit for my main course because it's so big and has a large variety. Pro tip. Tap water here is terrible. Ask for bottled water. Unfortunately, even though they have a filtration system, the tap water is used in their soda machine, and I can taste it in the soda as well. I bring my own drink if I want something other than beer.

Loved this place! Friendly, fast service, the food was tasty, and the portions are generous. My family and I came here for lunch on a Saturday while passing through on our way home from a vacation. It's got a beautiful wood bar when you first walk in and just has a welcoming feeling. We were seated right away and our friendly server took our drink orders shortly after that. We ordered the fried calamari appetizer to start, which was very good and disappeared in a matter of minutes once it arrived. My husband and I ordered the Philly cheesesteak and fries to share. We both enjoyed it and the portion was just right for the two of us. My boys ordered the fish and chips and the Service Station burger. Their plates weee nearly empty by the time they were done! Definitely worth a visit if you're looking for a good meal in Jamestown.

Like stepping back in time to the days of the gold rush. The service station ended up being a terrific choice for us to eat this evening. All of us got something different and all of us walked away very happy with our selection. The service station has that kind of "saloon" feel to it when you come in the door. And I mean that in a good way. Nicely refurbished to reflect a lot of the old style. There's a bar when you first come in and plenty of seating throughout the restaurant. The menu item of choice for me tonight was the "fish and chips". It's beer, battered Alaskan Pollock fish. It comes with homemade coleslaw and a choice of sides and I chose a salad. A very nice portion size of fish that was flaky and not at all fishy tasting. The homemade coleslaw was terrific, wish there was more in the cup. The salad consisted of lettuce and cherry tomatoes. I went with the blue cheese. Super friendly waitress with lots of good suggestions and very welcoming to us.

Jamestown has an amazing culinary delight. The service station will fill your belly and tantalize your tastebuds with lovely craft beers and tasty delights. There is a full bar, outdoor patio seating, and the other side of the business has table service . Some of the craft beers that are on hand can be purchased for take-home and enjoyment later. We stopped in after a nice day of antiquing in the stores around town. The menu was prominently displayed on the outside of this lovely establishment, and even though we weren't ready to eat at the time we walked by the first time the charcuterie board was on my mind as we continue to shop. We had successfully purchased the antiques that we didn't know we needed. We went back, and we're promptly greeted by a lovely and warm hostess that was also our waitress. She did a wonderful job of explaining some of the craft beers that were on hand and agreed that the charcuterie board was one of her favorite items when she eats at her own business. My partner had an amazing, stout beer that they had on hand. New Glory brewing, tasty nutty stout. This beer tasted like drinking and alcoholic candied coffee. It was creamy finish with lovely hints of nut and coffee. I had a red ale, and it also paired with the cheeseboard.. The cheeseboard came with a lovely, mild goat, cheese, sliced salami, Gouda American white cheese, dried fruits, candied, walnuts, homemade jam, along with homemade red, pickled onions that were just fantastic. I happened to see some of the other things that the patrons were also ordering and they looked absolutely delightful. The menu is not overly crowded so it's easy to pick something that would be tasty for your meal. If you happen to be in Jamestown or just passing through on your way to Sonora, I highly recommend that you take a quick stop have a nice drink, some lovely food and enjoy the great staff.
