    Stopped at The Burger Barn in Pollock Pines and it did not disappoint! Service was quick and efficient--our food came out fast, prices were solid, and the pastrami sandwich we ordered was pretty frickin' good. Honestly, everything we had hit the spot. The vibe of the place is great--rustic and cabin-like, with a big patio under the pine trees. They were able to fit our whole crew outside with no problem, which was perfect since we were riding with a group. The walk-up ordering makes it super easy, and there's plenty of seating for larger parties (motorcycle groups, take note!). We'll definitely be back--good food, good prices, and a laid-back setting that's perfect after a ride through the mountains.

    Double bacon cheeseburger meal

    This meal was soooo good. The service was quite speedy. The food was quite hot when it arrived. I got the turkey melt which was quite flavorful, with some yummy waffle fries which were perfectly crisp. I didn't think that I would like the turkey melt because I was craving a burger but I wanted to try something different. Honestly, really glad I did because it had the best combination of flavors from the turkey, bacon, ranch, tomato, avocado... soo good. Everything was quite tasty, just a little tad bit pricey. This meal was ~ $53 which feels a lil crazy but we love to support small businesses. My boyfriend enjoyed the double cheeseburger, it came and went really quick, I think his only complaint was the flavor of the burger meat. I thought it was quite yummy though. Everything felt very fresh and delicious. I liked that there was outside seating as well as nice comfy booths inside. Very very cool, got to see a kitty in the restaurant.

    Vegan, plant based, beyond burger with guacamole and jalapeños, added.

    well, this is a pleasant treat here at the 4000 foot elevation of Pollock Pines along the historic pony express Trail. It's an independently owned burger slang'n business that has all the good stuff. Best of all for you plant based soy nugget huggers like me. They have a Beyond Burger that's top notch. Order this up with guacamole and jalapeño if you're a Hot One. cholula hot sauce is available too. The patio here is what i like the best. Theres a shade structure, huge plants and hella room for you and your menagerie of emotional support animals. Peep the photos. now git it!

    Just passing through here with a pretty large group of people about 10 of us. This place is not far from where we hiked at Bassi Falls. It's a small operation with an inside seating and outside seating. In my opinion, they were just understaffed by one or two people which slowed everything down, including the order line which was long. It wasn't the efforts of the workers they were working as fast as they possibly could, but they were just having trouble keeping up or having a steady pace. I'm sure a group of 10 had something to do with that. I ordered the mushroom burger and it looked really good. I got a double and so it was very healthy in size but fell short in flavor. I really felt like this under achieved because there really wasn't any flavor on this burger. It didn't mean that it was bad it just wasn't flavorful. It could be because they were just trying to get orders out, but I have to be honest here. I would try to give this place another chance because I think they're worth it.

    If you haven't eaten at Burger Barn in Pollock Pines, you're really missing out--not just on the food, but the whole vibe. I had a juicy, flavorful hamburger, my cousin went big with a double bacon cheeseburger, and my dad tore through his Philly cheesesteak like it owed him money. My aunt got the grilled chicken salad with cheddar and ranch--and I don't even like ranch, but it looked so good I almost stole a bite. We sat outside on the patio under canvas shades and blooming wisteria. The sun was warm, the air was crisp, and the whole place just had this relaxed, timeless charm. You order inside and the super friendly staff brings your food out to you. It's the kind of spot that makes you want to stay a little longer. Right off Main Street next to the True Value hardware store, it's surrounded by trees and mountain air. The whole place feels like a little slice of peace with amazing burgers. Whether you're finishing a hike or just grabbing a bite with family, this spot hits the mark.

    We stopped in for a quick lunch. I got a Reuben Sandwich - Made with thin Sliced Pastrami, Sauerkraut, Thousand Island Dressing, Swiss Cheese on Marble Rye. The sandwich was on dark rye, had about 3 layers of very thin pastrami and piled high with sauerkraut. See the picture, should be named the Sauerkraut Sandwich. Everyone else got burgers and they seem much smaller than the last time we were there. It wasn't horrible but pretty disappointing, there are not a lot of places to eat in Pollock Pines. I get things are getting expensive, up your prices and add a little meat. I zoomed in on the picture and there is hair on the sandwich. I never noticed it, when I ate it!

    Burger and fries

    We came here on Saturday afternoon because the people at the gate of the Sly Park recreation area recommended eating here. I had a black and blue burger with fries and a soda. Unfortunately, the soda machine was having issues and the soda tasted not nearly sweet enough and not nearly carbonated enough. The fries unfortunately were overcooked. The burger was good. The service was excellent, and the people were friendly.

    My friends and I stopped by Burger Barn after a 5.5-mile hike--starving and in need of a solid, protein-packed meal. This was my first visit, and I was pleasantly surprised! The place is small and cozy. We were the only ones there and got seated right away. Our server was friendly, attentive, and even asked if we needed separate checks up front (huge plus!). I'm gluten-free and don't eat beef, so I ordered a custom turkey burger on a gluten-free bun with jalapeños, mushrooms, onions, Swiss and pepper jack cheese, plus steak fries and a side salad. The salad was fresh and a good size, though the ranch tasted like standard bottled dressing. The burger was flavorful, cheesy, and satisfying, and the gluten-free bun (a $3.50 upcharge) was soft and held up perfectly--totally worth it. The restroom situation was a bit hit-or-miss--one clean, one dirty--but overall, a solid experience. Great comfort food and friendly service made this a spot I'd come back to after a hike in the area!

    Bacon Blue Burger
    Courtney O.

    Yummmm! Stopped in for lunch on our way to do some Ice House camping and it was delicious! It's located right off Pony Express Trail and they have a cute shaded patio area that is dog friendly. You can order inside or at the patio window. We ordered the Chili Fries, Bacon Blue Burger, Western Bacon Cheeseburger and the Kids Chicken Nuggets. Everything was so good! The burgers were flavorful and I loved the crispy burger buns! The Chili Fries were huge and the chili was great as well. We also ordered Peanut Butter and Oreo milkshakes that hit the spot on this triple digits day! Overall, this place is a must. Service was super friendly and you can tell that they take a lot of pride in their business! We'll definitely be back the next time we're in town! Check them out!

    Food is okay nothing special, service is hit or miss and it's a little over priced for mediocre food.

We also went to the deli and got a breakfast burrito. I wished we each got our own it was so good. I belive it was $5.99 for either the sandwich or the burrito. It all came from the deli case. We got the Bacon, Potato, and Egg Burrito. They have eggs precooked in disks and they tear up the backon and add potatoes from the fried chicken section of the deli, and they chop everything up and put it in there oven to melt the cheese and then toast the top. It's definatly hand crafted as they advertize. It's a time consuming process, the making of the burrito and there was a line when we got there. There was a family of two, infront of us getting 3 burritos so there was a wait. Knowing it's hand crafted should take away from your impatience. I talked to the guy behind me and he said there is always a line for the burritos, it's a very popular item.

    This Safeway is beautifully tucked in this nestled beautiful area…read more We don't get out here much, but we do have family that lives out here and a lot of people come out here to go to Slyde Park or other places to go to the water and every single time I come in here everything in here is so well and neatly kept The aisles are huge, so you don't bump into anybody which I really like. I have been in here to buy stuff. I have been in here to use the restroom. I've never been treated differently. I've always been treated very kind and nice. I'm able to come in here and buy snacks and all the pricing is pretty good. They do have everything that every Safeway has which is really nice. You know what to expect you can get vegetables you can get meat. You can get all kinds of things and just because this is the only Safeway or grocery store in the area they don't have their prices raised in a super huge bracket which a lot of stores would do just because they're the only one in the neighborhood

    Perfect Spot for a Fall Day [Apple Hill|Camino CA]…read more The number of orchards in Apple Hill can be overwhelming that's why each year my eldest daughter always has a game plan to visit farms we haven't tried yet (and some repeat visits to our favorites) This was my first time at the Apple Ridge Farms. We spent most of our time here. There was a lot to do including an actual u-pick Apple orchard. Apple Ridge Farms is dog friendly. BBQ and Bakery with a full menu including sandwiches, salads and sides. They had a special on apple pies this weekend... $20 for a whole pie. Picnic Area - got our lunch and enjoyed it in the covered picnic area. Love their fries! Apple Barn - frozen pies, pastries, apple cider, fresh apples, Christmas boutique Country Store - filled with jams, jellies, fudge, chocolates, and great gift ideas Nature trail - visitors are able to choose between an easy trail and a not-so-easy trail. We chose the easy trail but I think they are both easy. Flower trail - unfortunately our visit was in early November and we missed when the flowers were in bloom. September would be the best time to visit and check out the colorful zinnias. Free to access. Gem mining - daughter has enjoyed this activity in other places since she was little. She's 23 now and still has fun with this experience. There is a fee for this activity. Pop ups Artisan Crafters - arts & crafts including wood works, handmade jewelry, handcrafted soaps and candles, paintings, dried nuts and fruits. Unique finds! Face painting - we did not do this activity due to time constraints but daughter had wanted one of Patrick Starr (SpongeBob Square Pants)... next time! Portable toilets are on-site.

    Pleasantly surprised!…read more We stopped here on a whim on our way back from South Lake Tahoe, after a round of golf. Walked in, not expecting much, but at least some decent food to feed our hungry belly's. It was Saturday evening around 615ish, front of house was running around, but when she spotted us, showed us to our table, gave menus, and apologized as it might be a minute before our server would be able to take our orders because it has suddenly gotten busier than expected (large place but only about 1/4 full, but with 2 large groups, one of which was just seated before us) she came back with waters while we looked at the menu. Once our server came she was polite and took our drink order, promising to be back to take our food order. Understandably it took longer than usual to come back, so another man came to take our order. He apologized for the wait and said he would be happy to take our orders. We think he was the manager or possibly owner, really nice gentleman. We ordered the tiger prawns and Brussels sprouts appetizers, I ordered fish n chips, my husband ordered the rib eye with Mac n cheese and our friend ordered the salmon. The Tiger Prawns and Brussels came out first and the tiger prawns were amazing! 5 large tiger prawns, a couple pcs of toasted baguette, and in a type of white wine garlic Alfredo sauce type. The sauce was perfection, as I dipped each bite of prawn and soaked the accompanied bread. The Brussels were just as amazing, fried to have a nice crisp to it, but not soaking in oil, so they must've been fried in the perfect temp oil or something, and the glaze was just right (a lot of places just drench them in glaze as they're sitting there soaked in oil, but not the case here!) The ribeye was cooked very well (medium rare) and the hubby thought the salt level was PERFECT. It was a little salty for me, but I don't like a lot of salt. My husband almost always orders a good steak when available, and he thought it was great. The accompanying side of veggies were great too! Heavy on the garlic, but we love garlic so we thought it was perfect. The fish n chips were good, fries were ok, but not my style. They were more like shoe string fries, but that's their thing and a lot of people like that style. The tartar sauce was surprisingly good, and not just that cheap store bought stuff a lot of places tend to give. Friend with the salmon said it was good and ate it all. The gentleman that took our order forgot to add the fish n chips, but quickly rectified it, apologizing and bringing out some fries for me to munch on as the fish was getting cooked. Not a big deal to me, as I was already happy with the other items we had. He also came to our table once we were done and chatted with us for a bit, which was very nice of him. Overall the food was pretty good and would recommend stopping here if you have a chance when you have some time to relax while you eat. The staff are all nice personable. Sorry I didn't get to take pics of everything, as we were all really hing
