“A nice little shop! I went on a vacation and I wish we had one back at home! I had a mocha and it was probably the best one I have ever tasted. They have plenty of options. The staff are also super friendly! Prices are 1-5$ per drink which is pretty manageable compared to other stores. Highly recommend this nice little store!!”

Pinecrest Snack Bar Pinecrest Loop Rd, Pinecrest Pizza • $
Pinecrest Loop Rd, Pinecrest

“After hiking around Pinecrest Lake, I decided to come by the snack bar to grab a soft serve. It was a hot day so it was perfect. I honestly wasn't expecting a lot but wow was I surprised! It was very creamy and rich but not very heavy. It was sweet but not super sweet which I enjoyed. It was interesting to see a +$1 charge for a paper cup. The sugar cone comes with the original $6 price tag. Seems a bit steep for ice cream but there was a decent amount and it's taste made it VERY much worth it. Probably some of the best soft serves I've ever had! The man working there was kind as well. He sung out loud and gave off such happy energy.”

Dodge Ridge Mountain Restaurant and Bar 1 Dodge Ridge Rd, Pinecrest Family • $$
1 Dodge Ridge Rd, Pinecrest

“Recently tried Dodge Ridge instead of going to Tahoe and overall felt it was a good value. The one-day tickets were among the lowest cost in the Sierras, snow quality and grooming was very good, and the facilities felt clean and not overly crowded compared to many of larger resorts. The mountain is small but still has enough to fill a day without feeling repetitive. The major downsides we experienced were a very slow rental shop and slow lifts. You can mitigate the first by bringing your own equipment or renting elsewhere. The second is unavoidable, but given Dodge's comparatively lower costs, seems a reasonable tradeoff. Food and drink were a mixed bag (good soup, small but well-stocked bar, definitely skip the pizza). One other note, if you're coming from the Central Valley or Bay Area, this location is slightly closer and seems less susceptible to the traffic that plagues the trip to the Tahoe area. But the road up is not in great condition so plan accordingly if the weather looks at all questionable.”

“It's amazing what the chef can do in this kitchen that's the size of a postage stamp. We love the steam donkey and look forward to it for every ski trip. Sam the host/drink taker is always upbeat and fun! The food is always hot, fresh and delish. Don't sleep on the soup!! Every soup I've had has been 10/10!”

“You know, I have been going to Pinecrest for years and always wondered about this place. The parking lot in front was always empty so my friends and I thought no good. Well, come to find out huge lot in the back!! Super delicious food!! I will definitely be back this summer and glad we drove up and stopped here recently!”
