ok for food dont worry about mcdonalds, or BK, or wendys, THe closest one is about an hour from this trail. There are local spots. The dinner mentions, harlows, back ali's(20ish minutes away), and of course, a fire pit at the top. It would probably be wise to bring some food and well eat up at the top. I would rather just grill up some burgers or something than go to a pub.
oh if wanted we can probably get that fire strong enoug hto cook a whole cow. wether or not it will be safe ot eat is another thing.
