This is our favorite spot for donuts and pastries. The coffee is great too. The best part is that everything is made there and daily. It’s also about a minute drive from our cabin or a 5 minute walk.

I highly recommend this place. It’s new, the food is fantastic and they have a good ambiance. Great outside sitting with a fire pit. Probably my favorite restaurant in Big Bear Lake :)

A hidden gem with light island/tropical fare - poke bowls, açaí bowls, juices, Groundworks Coffee, tropical frozen drinks (piña coladas!), and great waffles. These guys have really good energy here! Ask for the ‘Natty Bread Waffle’, and you might get a fire show.

For some authentic German Brats and other deli meats. This mom n pop (literally) deli is a little gem on the edge of the village. The owner brings cuisine from his hometown of Mosel, Germany. Don’t leave without having an Apple Strudel!

For something a bit more upscale. Make sure you call to make a reservation if you do plan on going out for dinner. I've had to hop from place to place trying to get a table because I didn't have a reservation. Great food, nice ambiance.
