Everything is super tasty, offering a variety of options from crunchy tater tots and soft pretzels to all kinds of hot sandwiches. You’ll park in town and enjoy a short walk through Lake Arrowhead’s charming downtown area by the water before arriving at the restaurant. I had my first date here, and we're still together after 2 years! We sat outside on the balcony overlooking beautiful Lake Arrowhead, watching flocks of birds fly by—a truly memorable experience.
