"This 90-year-old restaurant is definitely haunted. Sorry if that freaks you out, we think it's cool. The ghost's name is George, and no one knows how he died, but his spooky antics are one reason to check out this historic restaurant. Dark and moody, Captain's Anchorage let go of its British pub shtick over the years and now operates as a classic steakhouse. You can sip wine, split a decent shrimp cocktail, and eat juicy prime rib for less than $100. This thick hunk of beef comes with a light horseradish cream and is so tender a butter knife could cut through it." - sylvio martins, garrett snyder, brant cox

Captain's Anchorage is true Big Bear Staple, with a storied history and consistent high quality food and top notch service. It has old school steakhouse vibes and an amazing bar and kitchen that have been serving hungry locals and tourists alike for decades. The prime rib is always amazing and highly recommended. Making a reservation is definitely reccomended as it can fill up on weekends and holidays in a hurry. Locals know you can get the full menu at the bar which is actually a fun experience for 2 people. It's hard ti do but save room for dessert, the butter toffee cake is awesome and the cheesecake is probably the best in Big Bear. Oh and ask about the ghost...

We came in on a Thursday. The place was jammed packed. Wait staff was amazing. I mean the service was fantastic. And the atmosphere of an old English pib was amazing. As for the food I had the prime rib. While Ive had better it was very good.

My husband surprised me with this gem for my birthday! We live in LA and love fine dining. We were excited to try this place and I highly recommend you check it out for yourself . We were greeted by Jessica and Natalie was our server. Natalie made sure to answer all our questions about the menu. She talked to us about the history of the restaurant as I loved the decor. The clam chowder is excellent , the scallops serving was huge and delicious ,and the lobster was so big I couldn’t finish it. I had an espresso martini which Natalie tweeked the ingredients for my liking. The strawberry cheesecake was also delicious. Overall this place is Old Hollywood with amazing service and delicious food. Thank you so much Natalie and Jessica for the amazing experience. We will definitely be coming back soon. They also have happy hour!

A cozy and quaint restaurant with friendly staff that make you feel like home. Tony was our server and she had great recommendations! The atmosphere feels like you are in a tavern, darkly lit. The food is simple but delicious. The bourbon bacon jam was a hit - salty, a bit sweet, and the blue cheese really took it to a new level,m, with each bite it got better and better! If you like bacon, you will love it. The Prime Rib was tender, the jus was flavorful, and cooked to perfection. The NY strip with the garlic butter was cooked to perfection and had a nice char on it. The fresh salmon, sauteed, was simple, tender, and perfect portion. The teriyaki shrimp with rice and veggies makes a perfect portion. The butter cake was a perfect finish! Warm, decadent and the vanilla ice cream was also top notch. Great food!

Nice atmosphere with seating on 2 floors with fireplaces and a bar. Attentive and friendly service. Food was good but not special. The Filet was juicy and didn't need steak sauce. Side salad is a waste, go with the soup. Salmon has good flavor. Menu is really small, but good options.

Classic American steakhouse with a lot of California & Big Bear history including the late great Andy Devine! Truly enjoyed the prime rib and sous vide coulotte sirloin steak, house-made blue cheese dressing, and of course the baked potatoes! Wonderful wine selection and a vast variety of cocktails. The staff is incredibly accommodating!

A very unexpected wonderful experience! We had just arrived to town and were hungry. We saw this place and I have always wanted to try. Seating inside was limited so opted to go outside where they have gas heaters and a live band. We were even given blankets to help us keep warm! Service was great, food was good and we had a grand time dancing after dinner to the live music. We stayed longer than anticipated and have wonderful memories. Thank you!!!
