Open since 1994, North Shore Cafe has developed quite a following over the past 15 years. Whether you're a local to this small SoCal town or a visitor coming to the mountains for a day trip or a weekend away, this locally owned restaurant is one spot that is always at the top of the list for a visit.
North Shore Cafe may be old-fashioned, but not in an outdated way. It's quite the opposite, actually, as this mountain town restaurant also has an elegant and charming flair. The warm wood paneling and flickering candlelight make this local gem a cozy place to visit.
Show up in the morning and you can feast on a hearty dish like steak and eggs. It's a great way to kick-start your morning and fuel up for a big day in the mountains.
For lunch, you'll love all the sandwiches on the menu. Try the hot reuben for a taste of comfort food. The corned beef is made from scratch, so you know it must be good.
Although dinner is only served on Fridays and Saturdays, heading out to North Shore Cafe for a meal is always a treat. Especially when the meal includes a side of their homestyle mashed potatoes.
North Shore Cafe will give you a warm welcome all year long. But we find this old-fashioned eatery especially delightful to visit when the town is sprinkled with snow. Perhaps this winter is a great time to give it a try.
Now that’s a charming eatery tucked inside the SoCal mountains. Do you have a favorite old-fashioned restaurant you like to visit when you visit Southern California’s mountain towns?
