Casual, understated pub atmosphere. Nice view of lake. Unfortunately the deck area was closed. Fish & chips and fish tacos were excellent.

HORRIBLE SERVICE. We waited 30+ minutes for our food, only to be told that one of our four meals was not available. No ketchup for a burger place, warm cans of hard cider. Just ridiculous.

This place was great! Service was great. They were friendly and met our special needs. The Pub burger was cooked perfectly medium and the garlic Parmesan fries were seasoned just right. Next time I'll try them as tater tots. Views of the lake would have been amazing had it not been raining.

Terrible service. I get if a restaurant is understaffed and if it’s a busy lunch rush. The first acknowledgment we got was being told we couldn’t sit in an area that was “closed off” but there wasn’t a rope or anything blocking it off. So we moved. Then we sat and waited for over 20 mins, no acknowledgment from staff to order. Waited and waited and no one came to take our order. The place was packed and I get if the kitchen is backed up. But good customer service means communication. Say hi “Thank you for waiting, or sorry it’s going to be a long wait. Can I get you some drinks while you wait” ANYTHING! But ignoring us. We were only two people. We saw two people being seated inside 20 minutes after we had been seated waiting to have our order taken and those people got their order taken, had their beers brought and had their food at their table in less than 10 minutes. Lots of other tables were waiting for food or drinks as well. We got up and left. Would not come back. Would not recommend anyone stop here unless you’re okay with giving your money for that kind of service and if you’d like to sit and waste your time. We only tried to come here because the Outpost was closed.

I ended up here on a busy Saturday afternoon, and this place was packed — which kind of sets the tone right away. We checked in around 3:10 and were told the wait would be about 20 minutes, but it turned into closer to 35. Honestly, I didn’t mind too much because the view here is the whole reason to come. Once we got seated outside on the patio, overlooking the lake, the energy shifted. It just felt calm and good.
Our server was quick with drinks — I ordered an iced caramel coffee, and it came out fast. Sweet, layered, a little over the top in a fun way. I just sat there watching the water and kind of forgot I was hungry.
For food, I went with the Southwest Chicken sandwich. Solid choice. The garlic fries hit especially well. Not the best burger/sandwich of my life, but definitely good — one of those meals where everything just works together because of the place you’re in. The only miss: I ordered a scoop of vanilla ice cream and they forgot it, but at least it wasn’t on the bill.
Total came to $52.63 for two. So yeah — this is a strong 4 for me. Come for the lake, stay for the slow hour, let the food just be part of the moment.
I’d come back — but definitely for the patio seat again.

Just left the restaurant. No one in the restaurant but the bartender and the waitress. We took seats outside, 3 single customers, 2 eating, 1 drinking a beer. The waitress finally showed up several minutes later and after my husband went inside and ask if we needed to order inside?? Okay finally a beer and menus. Nothing again!! She took drink and food orders from two more tables that walked in. We finished our beers and went inside. Told the bartender I think she forgot we were there, she never came back to our table. We says “oh sorry”

Service was horrible. I deleted my review from 2 years ago where I gave them 5 stars. We came back down e to it USED to be a great place. Service was so horrific. We sat down at bar seating no and there was a rush so we were patient. Our server (who didn’t acknowledge us at all) eventually came to help 18min later. Gave us our drinks and when we asked for a glass we were given a dirty glass. You could see lip stick remains from previous. We walked in and place was about 50% full and there was a 10min wait, why not sure, bus lady just liked to stand around. They had no cashiers at store and had to come to bar to buy ice cream, chips or anything sold at store. Horribly managed establishment. We have come here for years even before the NEW owners came in. I own a business and would have be appalled by the lack of efficiency as well as the horrible customer service. Usually I would not come here ever again but I’m going to continue to come and order minimum items just to bring awareness and monitor their service. If I see a change with staff I will change my review but I stand firm on the 1/zero stars. Any real owner would take this review into consideration and make changes immediately. The chef’s were working hard but the other staff was a complete let down (food was quality). One bad apple to you wait staff can undermine everything else. The young lady running the bar top/register is the problem. I still gave a tip cause I know it’s shared with kitchen but I really wanted to leave no TIP cause of her. Owner/manager plz do a better job!!!!! You have a great thing going here but the service/ cleanliness was horrific!!!!!! I will not let this go and recommend to everyone that you just need to watch this and you will see what I’m saying.

Our favorite place to eat before or after a hike (Stonewall Mine is a fun, nearby hike!). We're enjoyed the chili, turkey dip (delicious!), fish sandwich, and the Back Country burger with fries and fried pickles. Service was prompt and friendly. We were treated to a sighting of a bald eagle over the lake! Highly recommend 👌
Customer service lacking, understaff, workers have a RBF face. they have a sign in the front entrance states to find your own table , they we're rude when we were waiting by a table that customers had just left, attitude! .....20 minutes went by nobody approach us to see if we want it anything to drink, or we will be right with you. BAD bad bad bad. Stay away from this place , food is not even appealing i tried to give a chance since we love to go with my family and try different places even if is a hole in the wall. The only thing beautiful is the lake view. This place is horrible. I was in my best behavior to not cause a scene so we got up and left with my family. Had a better pleasant experience at descanso junction A+++++++

What a great hidden gem, it seems like a locals joint. Outdoor seating was pleasant with a beautiful view.
Bloody Mary was like a meal, very picture worthy. The burger was phenomenal and my chili bowl was good. It was very good but a little too tomatoey, but still good if you know what I mean.
Service was good, David was very attentive.

This restaurant was amazing. So friendly and the food was so yummy. We had our golden retriever with us, and they made him a puppy pattie which he loved. We had two different versions of the hamburger and the meat was so good. The fries and onion rings are delicious. We sat outside on the patio with a beautiful view of the lake. We will definitely go back.
