"Much of Lake Arrowhead’s waterfront property is inhabited by private land and homes, making the Lakefront Tap Room all the more appealing for visitors. Stop through for burgers, fries, pretzels, and a surprisingly robust craft beer list to go along with the stunning lake view." - Eater Staff

Super friendly staff. Amazing food. Awesome beer selection. Water front views. Dog friendly patio. This place nails it. Best spot to get some good food. Seriously blown away by everything here, I got the Irish nachos (potato twists with cheese sauce, bacon, tomatoes) and the PBO burger (pork belly onion jam) both were amazing... also had the pretzels, and dang! Those were so delicious. Soft and not overly buttery. Perfection. Will definitely be back, and will always recommend people to go here.

Came here this weekend with a couple friends and our pups! We were so glad to find another great dog friendly restaurant and this one has the most stunning views of the lake! They have a great cocktail menu and a full bar. The kitchen staff was great in helping us as one person in my party has celiac and needs their food to be prepared very carefully. My wife and I split the BBQ Burger and the Californian Hotdog and a side of tots and they were all fantastic!

I am in town with friends for a birthday weekend. After a quick hike we looked for a place close to our air bnb to eat and this place was perfect! Great view, great food, great service! 10/10 would recommend.

Stopped in for round of drinks, and to share these amazing garlic fries. They were absolutely amazing my ‘Bloody Maria’ was great and my boyfriend had a beer. The view is great. The staff was really friendly and we were in and out pretty quickly. The pricing was very reasonable and there was not a line when I came today but there has been a line in the past, so probably just depends how busy it is. They have a good variety of beer and all the food around us looked amazing also. Great for a quick stop before heading down the mountain or just hanging out.

Dining at this restaurant overlooking the lake is truly a wonderful experience. The ambiance is unmatched, especially during sunset, making it an ideal spot for a romantic dinner or a relaxing evening with friends and family. While it can get crowded on weekends, the staff remains attentive and pleasant, ensuring a positive dining experience. The food is consistently great, with a variety of options to satisfy every palate, and the drinks complement the meal perfectly. Overall, dining here is always a good experience, offering both delicious food and breathtaking views.

Best restaurant/bar on mountain, hands down! If you love Guinness like I do, it’s the only place on the mountain to get a cold pint of Guinness on draft. The staff is always friendly and attentive. Sometimes there is a wait during weekends because the village gets busy, but this place is worth it! I love their burger of the month and tots, with extra dipping sauces. Give it a try!

One of my favorite places on the mountain to take friends & family for good food & pretty views! They offer non-alcoholic options and mocktails for those that don’t drink too, which is nice. They also allow dogs on the patio (as long as you have a friendly pup of course) & have live music on Thursdays too!

5 star service with a 6 star view. The food is tasty and I appreciate the interesting menu. Didn’t try the local brews so I can’t speak to that. Hospitality is truly lovely and it’s a very fair price for Arrowhead, not too shabby at all. Dessert could use some improvement.

Drove in with our doodle from a 10 nite vaca in Big Bear. We needed a break from hiking and wanted to see how Arrowhead competed with BB for vaca spots (rentals, recreation, restaurants). We chose the Taproom for its generous vegan options. One vegan / one carnivore. 1.) The staff was extremely considerate of our dog. Dogs welcome on the patio. Typical rules apply: off chairs, off table, leashed. The Taproom offers a full mutt-menu for your pooch. Between the vegan and pooch options, we consider this all inclusive dining! 2.) The full menu is available by qwerty. Very convenient. We began with drinks & an app. I loved the What's the Tea (bourbon based and berry infused). The wine selection had all the greatest hits but nothing unique. Beer selection was impressive. The cocktails were above and beyond for a taphouse and I recommend the Prose75, but I subbed vodka for gin. 3.) The food was delicious. We started with cauliflower bites w/traditional buffalo sauce. They were breaded and I didn't ask if the breading was vegan because I didn't really want to know. Next I ordered the vegan gyros for an entree with chips on the side. I love a fresh kettle chip! My husband had the Taphouse burger because we overheard that it was good. The burger (and fries) did not disappoint. 4.) Service was outstanding. We were greeted, offered water, our needs were anticipated (refills, to go cups), and all without waiting or having to flag someone down. It is nice to go to well staffed establishments! Overall, this is an excellent location with lots to offer any dining need. It is unusual to find a taphouse that caters to vegan choices. This was a refreshing experience.

Great views and solid choice for a meal in Lake Arrowhead Village. We ordered beer ($11, Russian River Pliny the Elder) - there was a great selection of beer on tap. We also ordered two sandwiches for $16/each (Italian Beef Sandwich with Coleslaw, Tap Room BLT with Fries and Turkey). Service was good, lots of outdoor seating if you have your dog with you. Entree selection was small but appetizer selection was large. Great choice if you were looking for beer + apps.

If you are near the Lake Arrowhead Village, The Lakefront Taproom, is an extraordinary experience. The highlight of my visit was undoubtedly their burgers and fried pickles, which won't leave you disappointed! The moment I took my first bite of their BBQ Bacon Burger, I was transported to a world of flavors. The patty was cooked to perfection, juicy and tender, with just the right amount of char. It was generously topped with fresh lettuce, ripe tomatoes, and a perfectly melted slice of cheese, and of course bacon, all encased in a soft, toasted bun. The balance of ingredients was impeccable, making each bite better than the last. It's clear that Lakefront Taproom takes great pride in their burgers, ensuring every element is of the highest quality. Equally impressive were the fried pickles. These crispy delights were the perfect accompaniment to the main course. Each pickle slice was battered and fried to a golden crisp, offering a satisfying crunch with every bite. The tangy flavor of the pickles was complemented by a deliciously seasoned batter, making them an irresistible treat. The dipping sauce provided alongside added an extra layer of flavor, enhancing the overall experience. The view of the lake while you eat is also worth mentioning. With its cozy, lakefront setting and friendly staff, it provides the perfect backdrop for enjoying a great meal. Whether you're looking for a place to unwind with friends or enjoy a family dinner, this establishment has something to offer. If you're a fan of good food, this should be at the top of your list. Their commitment to quality and flavor shines through in every dish, making it a must-visit.

My friends and I had the perfect dinner here! Lindsey was our server and she was so sweet and attentive! Everything we ordered was tasty and not overly salty. I started with the Blood Orange Hef, which I highly recommend. The mini corn dogs are seriously the best I've ever had. The Elote Tots were good, but I would have loved a little more sauce/cheese. Our burger was perfectly cooked and tasted really fresh. I highly recommend experimenting with their list of dipping sauces. The sriracha ketchup was incredible along with their bbq aioli. I would love to come back here the next time I'm in the area

Stopped in for the first time and was not disappointed! The staff was super friendly and provided excellent service! There is a great view of the lake from inside but I love the patio, especially on a nice sunshiny afternoon. The drinks and food were great. Loved the buffalo cauliflower! Blue Cheese burger was excellent as well. I wouldn't hesitate to visit again.

So fucking good! The burgers were phenomenal, and just right. The aged cheddar cheese, and taproom burger, 100/10! We had the corn tater tots as appetizers, so yummy! Old fashions here are some of the best that my husband has had. The lemon drop was, ( I'm thinking of it while I type of this out) some of the best burgers and drinks. To top it off our server Josh was the best ever! He was so kind, and made our dinner experience so much fun. Thank you for being you, Josh! We can't wait to come back.

I came here with my daughter and grandson. (This is the grandson leaving review) Once we got into arrowhead, I was so grumpy and hungry )not meant to rhyme lol) and my mom found this place for food. I ordered the beer Mac and cheese with bacon on top. This was flawless. I would honestly come back here again to eat this dish once more. The service was well too, staff were short and they still performed well. The food also came out fast. On top of that, the scenery around was beautiful, considering that it was overviewing the lake of arrowhead. Honestly, a 9/10! Definitely should come check this place out!

Amazing and highly recommend!! We came here on a Friday afternoon. Group of 6 adults, 1 toddler and 2 babies. We were seated at a large table overlooking the water. Service was amazing! They had kids coloring sheet menus with crayons. The provided extra plates so my toddler could share her meal with the babies. Our group ordered, fish n chips, a burger, melt, turkey sandwich, kids mac n cheese, etc. Everything was delicious! My mom has celiac and ordered a sandwich on a gluten free bun and said it was the best! Not a ton of room for baby stroller at our table, so they held our stroller at the front for us. The manager, or maybe owner, was present this day and was helping with service, which I love seeing when places are busy. Our waitress was great and made sure we had everything we needed. I didn't like that we were charged a 20% gratuity for our "large group". We had 6 adults, one 3 year old and 2 babies. The menu said 18% gratuity for groups of 8 or more. Not sure why we were charged 20%, but didn't notice this till we got home. I think it was wrong to have included the babies who are under 2 years old in that count. However, we've been here several times and will continue to return for great service, great food, and beautiful views of the lake! Highly recommend!

Okay food but a beautiful view. My large group of 15 dined on a Sunday at noon, they initially told us it would be a 90 min wait, but it turned out to only be 30. They don't take reservations, only walk ins, I was told by management. I had the pastrami sandwich, and I also got to try the fried chicken sandwich. I will say that the portion sizes are on the small side. Pastrami sandwich was good, but I didn't like the texture of the fried chicken patty... it tasted almost like it was ground chicken? Or like a large chicken nugget. Food is on the salty side but not too bad. Service was amazing, though. Our server constantly checked in with us. A solid choice if you're looking to dine in the Lake Arrowhead village, but you are paying for the view.

Before we headed back to LA (sigh), my wife and I got brunch at Lakefront Taproom Bar in Lake Arrowhead Village . We dined here before when we previously visited Lake Arrowhead and we thought it was the perfect place to end our NYE trip. I recommend to dine inside and specifically by the window. The restaurant has floor-to-ceiling windows giving you a clear view of the Lake and the beautiful outdoor landscape. The servers were all friendly and attentive making sure we were taken care of throughout our meal. I know we all make resolutions to improve our diet and limit alcohol consumption but unfortunately I cannot say no to an espresso martini or a Cubano inspired burger. If meals like this one are a foreshadowing for my future meals in 2024, I will give all credit to Lakefront Taproom!

Came up here for lunch. We were able to snag the last table, before being put on the waiting list, so that's fortunate. It's pretty crammed in here. I guess covid policies and regulations are a thing of the past. We were seated by the bathroom which is not ideal. Service is good. Quick, attentive and nice. It's super packed and super loud in here. More like a bar and grill then like a fine dining experience. But the views cannot be matched. You have an expansive view of the lake down below with its crystal clear water. You can be nosy and watch people walking a long the lake. It's just such a nice view!! Food wise we ordered their elote tots, and I got their PBO burger with chips on the side. The tots were good. Nice e and crunchy outside, and soft and pillowy inside. Good amount of toppings on them. Could've used more crema on top. Needed a little bit more salt as well. The burger was really good too!! Had jelly, which added some sweetness and there was savoriness in it and some saltiness throughout. They used wagyu ground beef which was soft and succulent and not dry at all. Extremely juicy. And really good. Great balance in taste. Chips were cooked well also. Crisp. Not oily. Could've used a sauce for it, but I just used ketchup. Overall it was really good. Great views. The beer and alcohol selection looked great. Good amount of choices. Prices are good. Didn't like being next to the bathroom. Maybe if I had one of those tables by the windows it definitely would've been a 5 star review!!

Restaurant is right on the lake ! Great views. It's a bit small inside so make a reservation if you are considering going here for dinner. Food was pretty good, better than most of the restaurants in the area. They have unique cocktails here as well as different types of beers and wines. Huge menu with different hamburgers, sandwiches, hot dogs, poke bowls, and even gyros! So you'll have a wide range of options to choose from. They have live music once a week after 6pm I think, and it gets pretty loud in there. You'll have to shout over the music so your table can hear you. If the place was bigger then the music wouldn't have been so loud.

Best burger ever! Service is quick and friendly! We had our pup with us and we sat outside on the patio but they were still super friendly with us and plus they had a pet menu! A friend recommended I try the burger, definitely recommend!

Consistently a great experience at this taproom! This used to be one of my favorite spots when I lived up here; recently stopped by to grab dinner while visiting and it was just as good as before! This is a nice place to grab a quick bite or drink at the bar and is also a cute date spot with the lake view! Service is always great, I have been here many many times from their opening to now and I have never had a bad server! The PBO burger is my personal fav on my menu so we ordered that and we also were both craving fish and chips so we got some too! Food is always so good, the fish and chips had the perfect crunch and the tartar sauce was savory yummy heaven! As for the PBO trust me.... Bacon onion jam sounds funny but it is sooooo good. The food especially hits the spot bc the drinks here are always on point, they are not stingy with their alcohol but still make some awesome tasting drinks! Definitely recommend you try it out, and I'm sure you'll want to come back!

Pretty good! Our group sat on the patio on a cloudy day. It was the first available, plus we had a pups with us. The patio is doggy friendly! Yay! The wind was blowing too. We noticed really quick that the cold and wind was blowing on our food and made it get cold fast lol So when the waitress brought our food, we gobbled it down as fast as humanly possible! Lol The Mac and cheese as soooooo good! Cheesy and gooey! The Buffalo cauliflower was really bomb! It just got cold so fast and wasn't good cold. But hot and fresh, it was one of the best Buffalo cauliflower I've had. Dipped in ranch it was delicious. I ordered the grilled cheese trio. I loved the sourdough bread. It was crunchy and buttery. I didn't like the crusted cheese grilled on the outside, but it had lots of cheese inside the sandwich. The fried and tots were tasty. My mom ordered the veggie pita tacos and enjoyed that. My partner and dad both ordered burgers with fries or tots and split a hot dog. This place is great! And the views are the best.

During my weekend getaway at Lake Arrowhead, we decided to try out a new spot. We opted for the BrauHaus pretzel, lakefront wings (advertised as spicy - hotter than hell), taproom burger, and a recommended sour beer. The ambiance was cozy, offering a lovely view of the lake, and our server was friendly. However, the pretzel turned out dry, reminiscent of a store-bought frozen one. The lakefront wings were good but not as fiery as advertised. The taproom burger was decent but didn't stand out. Despite these drawbacks, I'd give the place another chance, perhaps just for drinks and appetizers next time.

Yelp
The Taproom was suggested to me by a local and it was FANTASTIC! The food is fresh, made with love and absolutely delicious. My friend and I went twice during our visit to Arrowhead. We ordered: Aged Cheddar Burger Onion rings Beer Battered Fish 'n chips Crispy Cauliflower Bites with sweet chili sauce Tater tots Greek Gyro EVERYTHING was perfect. Incredibly tasty. I read someone else's review that wasn't as glowing as mine. Of course they serve bar food...it's a BAR. And they have a lot of options...I don't know any other bar that serves gyros, shrimp tacos, cheese curds, and cauliflower and makes ALL their own sauces in-house. The Lakefront Taproom is great!

This review is especially for the rude bartender that we had. Great customer service starts with a great bartender and this person has the worst customer service that I person can have. The manager has great customer service and excellent problem-solving management but I will advise as a person who treats my patients with the best attitude because I love my job, to spend a little more time encouraging "a smile and a great attitude is a priority when treating a customer." Also, respect is a priority in a restaurant. The restaurant has the best view but if you come for the view is amazing the rude customer service you will have it there with this particular bartender.

Yelp
Definitely a decent dinner option in the area. It was kind of a long wait but food was good, service was great, had a fun ambiance and they offer some good views even though we didn't have one from where we were seated. There are a good amount of options and everything tasted pretty good. The prices are kind of up there imo. You are for sure mostly paying for the view. Would come back!

First time at Lake Arrowhead visiting family this past weekend! My cousin frequent here. I had the Poke Bowl w/Avocado Salad and it was delish. The base is kale w/no rice. The bowl doesn't look much but it filled me up. My husband had The PBO Burger which was highly recommended and it did not disappoint. It was very tasty. If you are a carnivore, this is for you. No lettuce just a hearty and juicy Kobe Wagyu beef and smoked pork belly with balsamic onion, cheese in a brioche bun! WOW. We sat at the bar and the service was awesome. There are large windows with a beautiful view of the lake and patio area if you choose to dine outside. Family friendly atmosphere. Can't wait for my next visit.

I've always seen this place and wanted to give it a try. But they're always seem to be a big line. There's a line for a reason. Everything about this place was good. The view is amazing. Super clean windows made it seem like you were on the lake. The beer was ice, cold, and a huge selection.we had burgers and salad and chicken and all three plates were amazing. The service was awesome too. Very fast and with a smile.

Ordered the Tap Room Burger and had the option to make it vegan with an Impossible patty and they subbed the bacon for avocado. Amen! So good. Enjoyed every bite. Now is that piece of lettuce on my burger way too big? Of course. Use smaller pieces for sure.

Amazing location and Food. We arrived about 30 min after it opened. Prob 4-5 families inside. Within 20 min the place was packed so plan accordingly. I loved the sweet potato tots and the chicken gyro. Soooooo good!!!

A great place to enjoy gorgeous views of the lake and a great cocktail and meal. They have an awesome selection of beer on tap and fun cocktails to boot. Hubby had a beer-- I had a cocktail. Deep Creek Cooler - Koloa Coconut Rum, Blue Curacao, fresh pineapple, and lime juice-- I don't like super sweet cocktails and was worried that this might be. It wasn't. It was perfectly made and so refreshing on a hot summer day. Not sure why it had a Swedish fish skewered to the top- but my teenager appreciated the little pre-meal candy treat. Beer Mac and Cheese -- this didn't have the crispy bread crumb crust but that didn't detract from the absolute deliciousness of this dish. The pasta was cooked al dente, and instead of being ooey gooey- it had a nice creamy coating with a truly tasty flavor profile. Not something I usually encounter with Mac and cheese which is normally smack you in the face cheese. Crispy cauliflower bites tossed in house-made teriyaki were so good, I could have made a meal out of them, except everyone dove in on them, and I was lucky to get 2-3 bites! It came served with ranch-- doesn't make sense-- it didn't need a dipping sauce. But if it came with anything - it should have been a siracha aioli or something Asian inspired. Nashville hot chicken sandwich -- yummy. Good amount of heat but not kill your tastebuds hot either. The slaw cools it down nicely. We ordered this with a side of pasta salad which had got to be the best pasta salad we've ever had. Instead of the usual goopy mayonnaise bomb, it had capers, olives, bell pepper, red onion, and feta cheese. Again, the pasta was perfectly al dente. Patty melt - this was such a surprise at how good it was. I'm definitely not an American cheese person. But the party was perfectly cooked, the caramelization of the grilled onions perfectly offset the salty/seasoning of the perfectly cooked burger, and somehow the rye bread brought it all together nicely! Very impressed. Can't wait to return!

Super chill place great atmosphere we actually going to another place in the same plaza but service was sucks we decided to stop and this one because the view as well and best choice we did service is fast but I do recommend to do a reservation honestly the hamburger and fries were super good and fresh but beacon was delicious as well the chili beans my son try that sandwich and was really good as well I do recommend specially if you looking for something different and staff it's super friendly

Came up to the mountains to escape the city heat and decided to have lunch at lake arrowhead. Was able to get bar seating easily since there were open spots without waiting for window tables with large views of the lake which would've been cool too, but too hungry at this point of the day. Service was decently fast and our server was responsive and we ordered and Irish banger hot dog and Philly fries which were both great! They had seasonal drinks on the wall but since I was driving, I chose a virgin summer fruit's drink and it was nice and refreshing. It was overall a good first experience at the arrowhead village plaza.

Yelp
4.5 stars! I really enjoyed the place, especially dining outside. It's super dog friendly, they have a dog menu and includes a free water bowl. Although I don't have a dog, but it made me want one when I came here. The view outside is great and refreshing. I think the cold and altitude makes food tastes better. I had the patty melt, and it was delicious. The patty is a waygu but I don't think I could've noticed any difference. The fries were just okay, but the "chips" used for Irish nachos was fresh and crispy but also much potatoey. The tater tots were extra crispy. I like it that way. Service was nice, but it felt like it took a while because of how busy this place gets. I didn't mind because I enjoyed the outdoors. It also has a very nice selection of beers on tap.

Here for a mini vacation with family, we stumbled upon this delightful little restaurant with patio seating. One of the best things about it? You can bring your furry friends and enjoy the view of the beautiful lake from outside the patio. The wait was surprisingly short, and we were promptly seated upon arrival. The staff was amazing - they were exceptionally friendly and had great knowledge of the menu, making some fantastic food recommendations. We opted for the PBO burger, and boy, it did not disappoint! The burger was juicy, and the thick-cut bacon added a perfect touch of flavor. The fries were the epitome of perfection - crunchy on the outside yet soft on the inside. Every bite was simply delicious! We couldn't have been happier with our choice for lunch. The best part? Our in-laws joined us and loved it too! We're already planning to come back here on our next vacation. This restaurant has definitely earned our seal of approval!

Espresso martinis were phenomenal and our server was very nice. We (party of 6 adults) stopped by a couple of hours ago for drinks. Upon arrival I checked in with the hostess who proceeded to tell me wait time was over an hour. We were okay with it, but asked if we could check out the deck/patio which she said was fine but if we wanted to be seated there she needed to check with the server because it might have closed. Anyhow we went outside and as we were taking pictures a very nice server came out and asked if we wanted to order so we asked if we could just grab some drinks.. she was so nice and accommodating. We didn't realize it would cause a huge issue. Another server, female with black glasses was very upset and complained about us in front of us to other staff members. This particular woman gave us the stink eye the whole time there, so rude! This is the only reason for not rating my experience 5 stars - she made us feel very uncomfortable.

There's no wait for outdoor seating in the front, so my group decided to just sit there. The waitress gave us a menu with food only and we asked for the drinks/cocktails menu. She told us that we had to wait because another table was using it. I was so shock, like is there only one drink menu and everyone has to share or what... We waited so long for the menu that I had to ask again. We noticed that there were only holidays cocktails, so I decided to go up to the host and ask her questions since our waitress seems to be missing most of the time. When I asked the host, she told me that they can make any drink I wanted. So when the waitress finally came again, we tried to order drinks off of the yelp pictures and she told us that the only cocktails they can make right now is from the holiday menu. We opted on some holiday cocktails and my friend was even able to order. Hennessy & pineapple which didn't make sense to us. The drinks too so long to come out and we were freezing. My friend got upset and went up to the host to cancel our order. They told us it was too late and that it was coming out. It still took awhile to come out... after we got our drinks, we asked for the check right away. We got really impatient and did not like the service we received. My table did enjoy the Chili Cheese Fries and one of the holiday drinks.

Today a judge granted a 3 year restraining order against Brandy Faulkner who is employed by John Hackney, the owner of Lakefront Taproom. Brandy convinced some of the other employees to slander my honorable military service as a decorated Marine Corps veteran. John Hackney subsequently fired those employees but not Brandy who instigated the immoral, unethical and illegal behavior. Brandy and John have an extra special relationship. John refused to apologize for the behavior of the employees he fired. John is hot garbage. Boycott this business!

Good brews on tap. Came on a weekday with a friend and just chatted for a couple hours at a nice and quaint place. The view from the balcony is nice and if the weather is right, you can hang out for a while without the sun beating on you. Staff also put out an awning to accommodate for those that needed it. Food was great and service was great. Left pretty happy.... And buzzed!

Wonderful lunch with four of us dining. Three of us had the Patty melt, which was delicious and why we came here. Onion rings were good. Fries served cold and were not prepared to order. Nice selection of craft beer on tap. Note: Patty Melt is huge and can be shared. Highly recommend.

Beautiful and delicious spot right on the lake. The mini corn dogs were tasty, I love Nathan's. I had the PBO burger, it was juicy and unique. The pork belly on it was thick and yummy. This place has amazing beer options, including a can of the legendary Heady Topper. The tables over looking the water go quickly so it's recommended you get a reservation ahead of time. The host in the front was very kind to us.

This restaurant is f'n amazing! The food is amazing and delicious. The servers are amazing! They really went above and beyond helping my dad who has a disability. Some customers are terrible. Careless towards people around them. Some are awesome! Thank you for those that helped my dad. Currently there is only one restroom for everyone. Food is amazing and so are the drinks. You can't go wrong here. Get some drinks and food! Highly recommend!

I'm obsessed with their wedge salad it was so fresh after a day of hiking and I can't wait to go back and have it again. The service here is great, quick and nice. This is a great place for lunch or a few drinks at the bar. I've been here multiple times and every time it's great. I've also ordered takeout and the food is just a good as when you go and sit down to eat. They have out door seating as well as indoor and bar seating. They have load of dinks on tap as well as seasonal cocktails. Their appetizers and always great and I haven't found a single thing in the menu that is bad. This is a great spot for families or even a date. The outside area is dog friendly and it's perfect for people watching.

I'm not sure what our servers name was, but she did a great job. Drinks were good as well as the food. Gave off more of a gastro pub vibe.

This place is really cool if you want a window seat and front row to the amazing views of Lake Arrowhead and the surrounding forest. It is especially nice at sunset, and a wonderful spot to view the orange and yellow foliage during the fall. If you're into beer and wine, this is the spot to converse with friends and family over a few drinks and their many food items. I got their Gyro with Asada and pasta salad, and my husband got the Gyro with Chicken with fries. The chicken was tender but I thought it lacked flavor. The Asada was on the salty side and their pasta was super bland. The fries were heavily salted and almost reminded me of McDonald's fries. Almost. The best thing on my plate was the bread - Soft, fluffy, warm, tasty! Also, if you get the Gyro, just know it comes in the form of a taco. That was a surprise. Our waiter forgot us. We had to flag her down for everything - To take our order, to get more water, to get the check.
