been going here for 40 years. loved this place since i was a kid. with the changes they have made, we will never go here again. so impersonal now. everything done on a phone. and then when you pay.... minimum on the tip is 18%. what a joke. we will never come here again

While I appreciate the fast service and picnic table ambiance of the outdoor dining area, Alpine Inn is a terrible place to go if you are gluten-free, as many people are these days. Almost everything on the menu is either pizza, pasta or sandwiches, and there are no gluten free options. It would not be that hard to at least offer their sandwiches and burgers on one type of gluten free bread. The gluten free options on the menu are literally two salads and the chili. This is way out of touch with the Bay Area and their customer base. If you cannot eat gluten, you will not have a good experience at Alpine Inn.

Love this spot! The outdoor patio area is spacious and pretty- you feel as if you’re right against the forest. Lots of shaded seating. Casual spot where you order from your phone (which I like). Service was speedy, friendly and everyone at our table was so happy with everything they had-everything seemed very fresh. Even the chips and guacamole were excellent. Parking seems a little tight. Bonus points that prices seemed very reasonable for the Bay Area!

Pink lady, hunter pizza and strawberry ginger cooler all delicious. Avoid on Mother’s Day bc parking is out of control.

Food comes out quick after ordering & is very tasty. Wood fired pizzas feed 4 adults . A fave appetizer is roasted brussel sprouts! Nice outdoor beer garden style meals with heat lamps for chilly temps. Orders are all placed via QR code. Lovely touch is the herbs & veggies growing in planters and the rushing Los Trancis creek side dining!

This place is a countryside inn serving typical american food. We tried also the pizza that was tasty, although a bit too expensive. They have a good beer selection All in all a good choice.

This is a rustic outdoor place for light lunch for locals. The outdoor area is covered by trees with a great ambiance and nice breeze. After hiking in Palo Alto, Pearson Arastradero preserve, we went there for lunch. There is a variety of food for every taste including pizza and hamburgers. This place is very crowded and we had to wait for about 20 minutes. They ask you not to stay more than 2 hours so they can accommodate others. The service is fast. There is parking available

Watermelon Margarita is amazing 🍉 Basil bruschetta with Burrata cheese and heirloom tomatoes and Reuben sandwich is pretty good

Stopped by the Alpine Inn on a recommendation after a days hiking. Car park is big and was full on arrival on a Sunday afternoon. It was extremely busy but we didn't have to wait too long for a table outside. The menu is varied and food arrived quite quickly. Food was good and the atmosphere great with a lovely setting.
Beautiful food, beautiful location. Set in the woods this place has a real nature feel, with the added bonus of freshly cooked foods aroma in the air. Would recommend the turkey burger, very delicious, but the menu is extensive so lots to choose from. Will be back!
