Rockys is on fire today!! Pulled pork with slaw! Im here a few times a month. I love their occasional specials. They are very flexible to my diet restrictions. The best food on the mountain!!! I typically get their anti-pasta salad, meatball with swiss or the peppercorn turkey with oil and vinegar. All the restaurants up here serve the same food besides rockys! read more

Rocky's Roadhouse - This the best pulled bbq with slaw. - Delis Near Me - Running Springs, California

Rarely will you find me asking for less vegetables but this sandwich is just a careless mess. Thank God the bread was good, otherwise this review would be a lot different but c'mon, just because I don't order meat doesn't mean my sandwich require the same attention to detail?! I'm aware that this is a more local spot and big bear in general isn't a very vegetarian-friendly place to travel but then why even offer this?!? I originally wasn't going to order anything-- I was just there to use the restroom and my boyfriend was going to order a turkey sandwich. But after hearing how many veggies were on this sandwich, it genuinely sounded good. At first look, I thought this was a salad. Don't get me wrong, I do appreciate any place I can eat this many veggies in one sitting but to the chef, shred the carrots, cook the squash and throw some onions on here! read more

Best sandwiches on the mountain! Great taste, large portions and well priced. This place is worth a try, I enjoyed the sandwiches eating out in their small patio. They are closed on Tuesdays and have limited hours. read more

Solid sandwich, I ordered the peppercorn turkey. It was slightly on the dry side but the flavor was great and the bread itself was absolutely delicious! I will gladly come back to try other options read more

We stopped in on a Sunday after finishing a local hike. We were the only customers inside so service was quick! We ordered 2 turkey sandwiches and the bbq beef. You can tell they use high quality turkey and bread. The bbq beef was just okay, but the turkey sandwiches were a hit. Bathrooms are located downstairs and are for customers only, small but clean. Cute little place though with that "local hole in the wall" feeling instead of a chain restaurant. We would be back! read more

The food is is just OK but the real problem is the staff is very rude and uncaring. Last time I was in the countertop where their food is prepped looked disgusting. My wife and I won't be back. read more

I was craving a hefty sandwich for lunch while having my dog at my side and Rocky's Roadhouse was the perfect spot. The outdoor seating was a relaxing spot to enjoy the delicious Turkey, Bacon, Avocado Grinder while my dog looked at me occasionally hoping I'd sneak her a piece. The Grinder I ordered was packed with meat and the lettuce, tomato and onions that were bathed in oil, salt and pepper was so delectable. There was no other customer around when I arrived so ordering at the front was really quick and I didnt have to wait long to get my order. This also made photo opps with my dog also very easy. This place is a great spot for a fast/casual meal and next time I'll likely get a more belly-busting option like the Meatball Marinara with a cold beer :) read more

Stopped in on our way to Big Bear and glad that we did! Don't expect gourmet, it's a roadside sandwich shop, but we got HUGE sandwiches, with fresh stuff inside, and good bread. Sat on the little front patio with our pup while a biker dude tossed her pieces of ham when he thought we weren't looking. Service was nice, clean bathroom, and great way to get a bite before checking into our place in Big Bear. read more

The best sandwiches - my favorite is the Rocky's Italian. Perfect for grabbing for hanging by the lake. Easy call ahead to order. Just wish they would stay open later! read more

I pass by here all the time headed to Big Bear Lake, first time stopping in but definitely not the last! Had their delicious pastrami sandwich, added Swiss cheese and pepperonis! Roll was toasted perfectly! So delish Place is chill with a nice patio out front. Definitely hitting this place up again to try another thing off their delicious looking menu. I bet the meatball sub is amazing too! read more

Amazing service !! Family owned and very friendly. My whole family loves this place. Definitely recommend :)

We stopped at this rustic deli sandwich shop on our way to big Bear for a quick bite before meeting withwith friends. It definitely looked like a local favorite, which always gives a good vibe. We ordered the Woodcarver special. The sauce was a little heavy, but the bread is warm and toasty which balanced it out perfectly. The peppers added just the right amount of spice to make it really tasty overall a great choice if you're craving a really good sandwich on the go. read more

I tried the Philly cheesesteak. The bread was five star, but the meat was a bit too salty for me. I'll come back and try a different sandwich because the bread was that delicious, and maybe change this to a five star review. read more

This place makes such amazing sammiches! I got their special, Italian Beef Sammich, and I highly recommend it if it's available. They did not skimp on the ingredients and everything was freshly made. My only criticism would be that the giardiniera was not spicy at all, which made me sad because I love giardiniera. My guy got the Italian Stallion and loved his sammich as well. Both sammiches were huge and definitely worth every penny. Even eating them as leftovers, they tasted amazing. read more

Tasty grinder sandwiches!! All the ingredients are fresh. This is a local favorite spot. I really like the Turkey they have in the sandwich. You can order full or half sandwiches. You can pick one off the menu or create your own. They have warm sandwiches and cold cut. I made my own and ordered the salami and Turkey. It was so tasty. I'm also ordered the Turkey peppercorn. It had just the right amount of flavor / pepper. The Philly cheesesteak is also a local favorite. Many people ordered it when I stopped by. My half sandwich, chips, and a drink was a little over $11 USD which is not bad during inflation times. Better than McDonald's prices! This is a definite must visit when you are riding along the Rim of the World Scenic Byway. read more

Was in Crestline and chatted up some locals and was recommended this place. So glad we decided to take their advice and try Rocky's Roadhouse. Sandwiches were big, filled with lots of meats and tasty. 10/10 highly recommend this spot. Located on hwy 18, so it's a great stop if your in Arrowhead cuz then its just a hop, skip & a jump to Running Springs. read more

The best part was for sure the bread. The worst part was the unfriendly younger dude manning the register, and the blatant microwaving of all their hot stuff. Does it hurt to smile and seem somewhat grateful to take my money? Maybe it's because they literally ran out of bread right after I ordered, but still. Appreciate your customers more. Everything in-between was pretty decent, especially with the limited offerings in Running Springs. Although, I'm pretty sure they get all their meats and cheeses from Restaurant Depot, not Boar's Head. I mean, it was fully on display. But no biggie, still good stuff. We got the Rottie, a Ball Busta, and Rocky's Italian. Was a pretty good variety. All three really benefitted from toasting in the oven, though. I don't think it does the bread proper justice if you don't do this. So, you're welcome! Our fave was the Italian. The meatball was a very close second, we enjoyed how spicy it was and the name makes us chuckle. The Rottie was still pretty good in third place. The corned beef was tasty, but I'm a little bummed I never got to taste it with the horseradish cheese. Now it's just horseradish sauce with provolone. Oh well. read more

My family and I found this place by accident, we were planning to head up to Big Bear but decided to stay in Running Springs because of the traffic. We each ordered different sandwiches so we could sample a variety, and they were so good that we ended up ordering more to take home! I had the pastrami sandwich, an easy A+!! The pastrami was cooked perfectly, not salty at all, and full of flavor. My brother ordered the BBQ meatballs and said they were some of the best he's ever had. My niece got the "Ball Busta", and wow, that was delicious too. We'll definitely be back next time we're in the area. So glad we decided to stop by!! read more

very soggy and plain. no big flavors. nice people though. convenient location while driving up to Big Bear lake. read more

Rocky's is my usual post-MTB race stop and it's always Rocky's Italian--always meaty and delicious--with chips and a Barq's to wash it down. But today, the Italian sausage and peppers was calling--about 10-inches or so of perfectly-flavored sausage, covered in mozzarella, toasted up under the broiler, and covered in sweet bell peppers. What I really dug about this sandwich was that the sausage, sauce and bell peppers all seemed to be cooked separately, so they retained their distinct flavors, but they all came together in classic Italian style in the end, better than a Vespa, an Aperol spritz and ride around Lake Como. A course-chopped slaw, some chips and a Barq's (as always) rounded it out. Enough for two, I ate it all myself, which made it difficult to get back on the motorcycle for the two-hour fire road ride home. But alas.... My only complaint: the sad little plastic fork that wilted under the gluttony. So, if you're on your way to or from Running Springs or Big Bear, make a stop. Just bring your own fork. read more

Great place great sandwiches.....I hit this spot at least twice a month..... all the locals eat here!!!!

My 3rd time coming here 2nd time was yesterday thinking the junkyard dog was the hot sandwich I first had 2 years ago which was the woodcarver special. Regardless the junkyard dog was awesome, but the woodcarver in the picture is king. Family/ owners are down to earth and very welcoming. Happy to a repeating customer! read more

Rocky's Roadhouse - Woodcarver special - Delis Near Me - Running Springs, California

Rocky's Roadhouse is not a Subway...it's way better. The sandwich menu covers the basic choices plus a few interesting house specialty sandwiches and some hotdogs. I opted for the Rocky's Italian, which is a cold sandwich, and my order was written down on a to go bag. One can also opt for the Italian Stallion, which is the same sandwich served hot. The RI came on a nice and soft hoagie roll, with a good amount of meat and veggie toppings, then juiced up with a nice oil and vinegar, topped with S&P. The sandwich had to be 12" long! The RI was very good, and filling. I thought I'd take 6" to go, but opted to eat the entire sandwich since I had no place to keep my sandwich cool for the rest of the day. The RI came in at $14.99, plus an ice tea, so my total was about $18.75. I look forward to my next trip to Running Springs so I can try out Rocky's Woodcarver sandwich wich features BBQ beef, giardiniera, and mozzarella. read more

Rocky's is always the best!! As a local up here it's my favorite sandwich place!! Try their turkey bacon avocado it's my go to!!

Having owned a second home in Big Bear for 20 years, I must have driven past Rocky's a few hundred times but never stopped until today. So glad I did. Got the Rocky's Reuben. Sooo good. Lots of tasty meat, perfect melt on the cheese, crispy toasted roll and lots of coleslaw. It was so messy eating and driving I almost pulled over to eat it. I enjoyed every bit of it and was glad my truck had weathertech. read more

I was in here to get the pastrami.. I haven't been here in a longtime.. I had a pastrami a few months back that was picked up by a family member. It was great and I wanted more. So I came in and ordered one for myself. I also ordered a Turkey and cheese sandwich with two sides of Macaroni salad.. The pastrami was ok.. Meat was tougher than I remember.. Maybe it was made different.. Not sure.. The macaroni salad was good though.. The staff were friendly.. read more

I had the make your own sandwich with turkey, provolone, mayo, lettuce and tomatoes. I'm sorry but it was boring and pretty tasteless. My boyfriend had the junkyard dog and he said it was pretty good. Their macaroni and potato salad were pretty decent. read more

This is a quick review because I only ordered a sandwich and quickly ate it there, then left. When I first drove up it looked closed. I took a chance and went in and voila, they were open. The staff greeted me promptly and directed me to the menu on the wall behind me. I chose a customized salami sandwich. They didn't have the cheddar cheese I wanted, but everything else was fine. The. Read was quite good, as was the dressing. I think I paid $7, which was reasonable. Inside it was the typical mountain colors and aesthetic. Nothing fancy overall. read more
