Super friend staff and amazing food! Everyone was so friendly and helpful but, most importantly, the food was SO good! My husband and I both got different omelets and both were so good. We ate until we were beyond stuffed because the food was THAT good! He got a Bloody Mary that was one of the best I’ve had out here and I got a mimosa. Perfect little brunch atmosphere and set up! ❤️ You can not visit Lake Tahoe and pass this honey up!

The Getaway Cafe is my family’s favorite place for brunch! The staff is amazing and the food is incredible - an absolute 10/10 every single time. The best place to eat in Tahoe, hands down.

Another great meal at the getaway. Managed to beat the tourist traffic today and discovered those vegetarian breakfast tacos. Always great!
