Lunch

While the Basalt Rock Cafe is closed, we still welcome groups to eat lunch on-site. You’re welcome to bring your own lunch, or we can cater boxed lunches for an additional fee. We will reserve a space for your group to store belongings and eat, or you can enjoy the sun at the outdoor picnic tables. â€‹â€‹
