41 Best Vegan Restaurants in Big Bear Lake

“Everything about this place is incredible! The food, the drinks, the decor, vibes... Especially the service! As new parents, it's sometimes a struggle for my husband and I to enjoy a night out, but the staff at Tropicali ensured we had a great time. They even offered to wash our baby's bottle! We will definitely be returning every time we go to Big Bear.“

“10/10 Stars all around! This place is a vibe! We had the pleasure of stopping for lunch at Moon Ridge coffee Company, and it did not disappoint. My 10-year-old would like me to be sure to mention that his hibiscus lemonade was incredible. My family of four each had a different sandwich and they were all delicious and there was no skimping on any of the ingredients. The people were friendly and service was great. Highly recommend!“

“This is literally the best Mexican/latin food I have ever had. The restaurant crew all were nice especially our waitresses. They took care of me and my family as it was our first time visiting this restaurant. We had heard great reviews about this place and it did not disappoint! The chips and chicken wings were fire! Couldn’t stop munching it down. Literally finger licking good! They were so fast with our food but also carefully made picture perfect, and everything tasted so delicious. I loved my wet carne asada burrito and cranberry lemonade. My family left this place with full bellies as we couldn’t take another bite and letting the goodness settle in and had to take the rest home for another round another time hahha. We went today and it wasn’t busy at all and in a way it made the experience all the better. Food is decently priced and so worth it because everything tasted fresh, it was hot and full of flavor I kid you not it’s literally the best Latin food I have ever had. And they even put on music for us and my little niece danced around the restaurant very happy with her soup of the day and the yummy aguas frescas. Music set the vibe as very welcoming and filled life to the restaurant. It was just a great time with wholesome fun and time to be intimate or bond with good people around you in this setting. It’s a really neat place you can sit inside and look at all the unique wall decor also have the option to dine outside and enjoy the fresh air that big bear has to offer. We said our goodbyes as we had to race against time to get back home to avoid driving down the hill before it get dark. What really stuck out to me and as we me and my family were about to leave parking lot to go back home our waitress smiled and waves us a goodbye! how neat it that to care about there customers from beginning to end. 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🤩 no doubt. Please hop on this gem support great people like Gabby and her staff and grab a bite! If you love Mexican food you won’t regret it and I can’t wait to come back because the customer service here is superb! As someone used to work in a restaurant and the hotel business I can say I have a deep appreciation for others who value their customers to help them feel comfortable no matter what and effort putting in through great customer service cleanliness and working behind the scenes to deliver great hospitality and is genuine about it. You don’t get that a lot and that’s why they stood out to me. Love this place, love the staff. Great times. Thank you so much again. This place is top notch!“

“I enjoyed a satisfying dinner after a relaxing wellness day at Soothing Canna Massage and Wellness. It was an amazing pairing that I highly recommend. PROS: Located in the heart of Big Bear village, this rustic, warm, and cozy restaurant provided wonderful amabiance for a Spring evening meal. Hostesses and greeters welcomed us with smiles and friendliness. Our server, Leticia, provided courteous, professional, and knowledgeable service. We ordered the outstanding macademia nut crusted crab cakes with a wonderfully balanced chunky mango salsa. Not since the heyday of Citrone's in Redlands crab cakes have I delighted so dearly of these crustacean delicacies. The baked brie accompanied with toasted pine nuts, and chipotle rasberry sauce paired deliciously with grilled ciabatta. The freshly baked bread added a nice yeasty element with butter. The entree of pistachio crusted chicken with orange dijon sauce complimented each other sweetly. The buttery sweet potato mash contributed to the nutty tangy protein. I enjoyed dipping the freshly prepared vegetables with the sauce and mash! CONS: The salad that comes with the entree seemed like an after thought and definitely did not compare to the freshly made soups. The dishes are slightly overpriced compared to other places with similar food selections. So, the value is not exactly there. OVERALL: With a dirge of options at the quality and professionality of Peppercorn Grill in Big Bear, I highly recommend this spot for a wonderful dinner with friends and loved ones. ⚜️💚⚜️“

“Good food - relaxing atmosphere“

“Great food, cozy atmosphere (not loud!), and friendly staff.“

“When I was California I lost my backpack with wallet all cc money and DL. I was at Big Bear lake. The beginning of our trip. Well the owner of Big Bear Brewery found me on FB messenger mailed my backpack with all its belongings. Even the cash. Good people do exist Richard thank you! I encourage everyone to try Big Bear Mountain Brewery. The Ruben sandwich is the real deal!“

“We were in town visiting from Orange County and definitely wanted to get some great barbecue and based on the reviews, we decided to visit the cook shack. Despite being a little tricky to find, it was well worth the effort. We had pulled pork burgers and brisket burgers, and they were fantastic. And the sides were amazing, potato salad, and macaroni and cheese. And the service was fantastic. One of the cofounders came out and made us feel extremely welcome and appreciative for our business. Would highly recommend people venture off the beaten path to dine at this fantastic restaurant!“

“Best Ruben sandwich ever!“

“One of the best chicken sandwiches I've had in a long time. I was skeptical about door dashing a cocktail but I was SO surprised when it came in a mason jar. Honey mustard was so tasty I used on my sandwich instead of the pickles. The pickles were good but a bit breaded for my taste. Regardless, this was the perfect pick for BB for my first night.“

“Great food, nice music, ambience, will be back for sure!!!“

“Owners are amazing people, the burgers are AMAZING! For me this is probably the best burger I've had..I enjoyed every bite! Along with the pickle fries!! If u like spicy ask for the raccon style(sauted onion and yellow peppers) 👌🙌“

“They have great people working very nice“

“Delicious brunch of savory crepe and caramel latte. Thank you! And bonus photo ops featuring Jesse out back! Thanks!“

“If you’re looking to try something delicious and a bit different – this is the place!
We ordered the chicken chat, tomato soup, lamb vindaloo, fried chicken & mushrooms, and rice. Everything was very unique but incredibly tasty! The chicken had a slight sweetness to it, and the lamn literally melted in my mouth.
The place is super clean, with almost obsessive attention to detail – even the glasses were spotless, not a single smudge. Only two guys were working on a busy Saturday, but somehow they cooked and served everything really fast.
Meal was $55 total for 2 people.
The only thing to be aware of is that the waiter’s outfit is super casual, and he’s not really helpful when it comes to choosing dishes, so I’d recommend looking up some Indian meals in advance, just to have an idea of what you might like. Good thing the menu is big and has pictures.
Highly recommend checking this place out! We’ve tried other restaurants around Big Bear Lake, but the food here was by far the best.“

“The food was delicious! The coffee was excellent. The cheesecake was one of the best I've ever eaten. The view was just beautiful, sitting outside. A true treat!“

“🤙🏼🏔🐻🌲. Amazing! The split pea soup is the best!“

“The owner of this place knows how to care for his customers. He took the time to come out and talk with my wife & I. We had a great conversation about our Country and Keeping America Great.“

“I live here in big bear I have ordered the teriyaki chicken sandwich no bread 6 to 7 times never has it has it had cheese so how would I know it had cheese I didn't look at menu because I just new they had it so tonight it had cheese on no biggy I thought I can just pull the cheese off oh no cuz the whole dinner was soaking in 2 inches of grease their response is well it has cheese on so basically too bad...we go their so much they new my husband's name just by telling them what I ordered...but no more they make so much money off non locals they could care less about loyal customers I'll take my money else where not sure where cuz nobody really cares any more pictures in comments“

“Oakside Restaurant was an amazing discovery! We had lunch there today, Saturday, April 5th, at a table for three. We are visiting from French Polynesia, and this is our first time in Big Bear. The meal was absolutely delicious, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We will definitely remember this place and hope to return soon!“

“Unfortunately, i had a unpleasant experience.
Too expensive for what i ordered. Asada meat had little flavor, it was dry, and too simple. The place is too old, no AC available,and definitely requires maintenance. My first visit was during breakfast time, and the food was great.
I think they need to pay more attention.“

“Red Baron Pizza & Sports Bar has one of the best, if not THE BEST Pizza in Big Bear.

Starting with the Pizza itself, it has a crunchy crust, tasty pizza sauce & delicious toppings. Not too oily at all.

One bite of the Pizza & you can feel the difference.

The restaurant also has an amazing family friendly atmosphere with plenty of Arcade Games for kids to enjoy, lots of tables to seat big groups/parties & also a bar area for adults to enjoy a variety of drinks.

They deliver to the entire Big Bear Valley Area & always adding new items to their menu with coupons.

Their $20 deal for 2 Medium Pizzas is honestly hard to beat. You get two delicious Pizza for just $20.

RBP has become a favorite Pizza spot & if you’re looking for one, make sure to give their delicious Pizza a try. You’ll be happy you did.“

“Great service, second to none. Awesome food at good price. Cold beer, too many to choose from. Will come back again.“

“Great food! Can’t wait to visit Big Bear again and come back for another meal.“

“It’s been quite some time since I’ve had brunch and the pancakes and chicken were exquisite and fantastic! Certainly one of the best brunches I’ve ever had and the servers were all friendly and professional! Special shout-out to Ryan to making us feel welcome! Looking forward to coming back!“

“Food, drinks and service were all great!!“

“Calimesa location - Breakfast was so delicious!! Service was spot on thank you Danielle!! Let’s not forget the live singing. . . I could listen to him all day!!“

“the staff is awesome and croissants are amazing“

“I came in for lunch and had a nice meal. When I first walked in the front patio seemed very scrappy and dirty, but walked into a nice large restaurant with many large comfortable booths & tables. It was two in the afternoon on Wednesday, and I was the only one there.

I started with a lychee martini and I must say, it had a very strange taste. I didn’t quite recognize it because it did not taste like lychee should. I switched to a glass of Sauvignon Blanc. Then I started with the cucumber salad, which was nice. Prepared with a nice garlic sauce with big chunks. Then I ordered the chicken curry and although it was pretty darn good, it did not really have that much curry flavor, which was disappointing. There was a lot of tender chicken in it so overall it was a very good dish. I just wanted more curry flavor.

Pretty decent prices with large portions. Service was friendly and efficient. Very large menu.“

“My husband and me love the smoothies here!“

“I’m new here in Sugarloaf and I checked out Kallan’s and had a great time. Staff was great and food was good.“
