Not exactly food related, but after a day of climbing I'm always uber thirsty for a nice cold one. Location don't really matter, but nothing really beats a cold beer on the summit.

Disclaimer: pack out what you pack in.

For food, I'm pretty easy as to what it is, or where, as long as it's good. Nothing really beats getting home and foods already cooked by roomate, lover, wife, son, husband, whatever.

Cheers,
Nik

on the way out of the Gunks we always stop at the brewery "gilded otter."
nothing like a big sloppy burger and a brew (whatever the special is usually) after a day climbing :D

(now if only spring would get here!!)

Royal Siam Thai buffet in Jtree. Seems like climbers keep this awesome place in business.

The Mobil gas station in Lee Vining, California (near Tuolumne)

Yosemite Bug Hostel. The chef apparantly used to work at the Awahnee Hotel. I have never had better food this cheap.

Ponderosa Lodge near the Needles in California. Great steaks and salad bar.

Miguel's Pizza at the Red River Gorge. You can't help but love this place.

"Mexicali Blue" in New Palz after climbing at the Gunks. The best Catfish Taco anywhere.

Thai food rocks my dome. Unfortunately I am usually preparing my own meals after climbing so as to save the all precious dollar which is not in abundance in my reality. :lol:

I'm sure every climber in BC knows of White Spot and Triple O's. They make super-tasty burgers.

Also, anything cooked over a fire under the stars.

if we get done early enough- The Black Bear- a excellent diner with giant portions of everything, and you get breakfast food at any time.

if we dont? - peanut m&m's and turkey jerky on the trail out....

After a day at Donner Tacos Jalisco is always nice. I think it's tradition to stop for World Famous Fish Tacos if your driving to the east side from Yosemite or Tuolomne.

I haven't really found a place at Bishop that's a must, but the Movie theatre is Cheaper there then anywhere else around Cali that i've seen.

Being in San Luis Obispo, CA, the lads and I tend to go to The Shack for good burgers, fries, and pints. Nothing like a slightly chalky burger and fries washed down with a cold beer after a day of hang doggin'.

Cafe Rio in St. George. This is my favorite, but the other Mexican places are good, too.

Both Crossroads Cafe (for their burgers) in Jtree and Mexicali Blue (outstanding Tacos and Burritos) at the Gunks stick out for me as great stops for post climbing dining.

One of the best days of climbing I've ever had consisted of Shelf Road and then a trip into Colorado springs, where we hit up Chipotle. I can't say no to a big fat fajita burrito...

I used to live right across the street from a Chipotle. It was a serious exercise in self-control not to eat there every day. Regardless, I probably ate 3 to 4 burritos per week from there for a year. I still love the place. I like the barbacoa with guacamole and hot salsa. Good stuff!

I just go to the grocery store and pick up some chicken from the Deli.
Usually, I don't have time to sit down and am eating in the car heading home anyways.
Nothing beats a big chunk of meat when you are beat from a day of climbing.
