    White Mountain Cafe
    Jim G.

    McCloud, California? Where's that??? Just over the hill from Mt Shasta Ca is one of the most quaint and bucolic little villages in the whole state. Take a walk around the tiny town and you will agree, but make sure you stop in for some of the best cooking on the planet at the White Mountain Cafe. Tracy, the new owner and chef, is a perfectionist to a fault and it shows in the restaurants homey ambience and the fantastically prepared food she delivers! You leave full and satisfied saying to yourself "that's exactly the way I like it cooked"! The grilled turkey, bacon and cheese was sublime, the crispy fries, the homemade apple pie...yummmmmm! She does happen to be a genius with her pastries, as well. The entire staff is friendly, helpful, and professional and Tracy will always offer up a wry smile and a complimentary hug. If you're passing by, don't miss out on this 5+ Star experience! Jim gives it an enthusiastic thumbs up Cheers

    After enjoying the McCloud waterfalls, we decided to check out the town of McCloud before heading on to Mount Shasta city. Our stomachs informed us they had other plans - i.e. lunch - and soon! And that's how we ended up at the White Mountain Café. Some places you come in and just feel comfortable right away, that was the case here. We could tell right away that this place was well run and cared for: perfectly clean with a friendly, welcoming atmosphere. A bit of a unique look to it too; we found out later it had been converted from its original pharmacy origins. Customers were a nice mix of locals and tourists. We had some true comfort food for lunch: a tuna melt for my wife and the 'Ol Trusty BLT for me, with a side of fries. Both our sandwiches were delicious, mine with lots of bacon, and the fries were super. Our server was friendly and attentive. We thoroughly enjoyed our lunch. Small towns may be one of the few places with their own unique character, too small to interest the chains that can cast a blanket of sameness over an area. Fortunately, if you're willing to go to little out of your way, towns like McCloud exist, and in them places like the White Mountain Cafe.

    We did a small trip to McCloud. This was our breakfast spot every morning. The service was friend and great! The food was delicious and huge portions. Love the atmosphere as well. A must stop in your day!

    Wow the cafe has expanded their menu to include omelets and offers a 2 egg omelet as well as the traditional 3 egg. My husband had the stuffed hash browns with a biscuit that was wonderful. Their hollandaise was thick, creamy with a wonderful hint of lemon. They've got anything you could want from burritos, to chicken fried steak. They will even make you a breakfast sandwich if you ask! This is a veteran owned business so I love supporting them! Come up to McCloud and enjoy our town and this wonderful cafe.

    While we were in the area, we decided to check out this charming little cafe. It has a cozy atmosphere and the staff are genuinely friendly. We went with the sausage skillet and the chicken fried steak with gravy and biscuits. Both dishes were flavorful and satisfying. A great spot for a comforting meal!

    After a long hike, this is the perfect place to grab some burgers, sandwiches, and fries to fuel up. I cannot recommend the Carnitas Cubano more, the pork carnitas was so incredibly tender. Plus, their mimosas were only $6-7! Service was a little slow, but there was a festival in town so the long wait times made sense. I will 100% come back here again next time I'm in town.

Go there early and started with cocktails in the adjoining bar that is in a separate area from the dining area (which we were grateful for, as there was a large party loudly celebrating a birthday). Not having a chance to see any dishes coming to other tables (it was actually pretty sparse on diners for a Saturday night), we just ordered what looked good or was unique. Started with the shrimp cocktail - juicy and perfectly spicy sauce. Not unique but a crisp fresh start to our meal. White bean crostini - sounded heavy with the steak topper, but was delectable. The Caesar wedge salad was the pleasant surprise. They GRILLED the romaine. I've never seen this before and it was an excellent way to add extra flavor to the dish. Lastly, the spinach stuffed chicken with mashed potatoes and perfectly crisp veggies. Finish off with a strong coffee and "voila", a nice finish to a very satisfying meal. The staff were attentive and pleasant! Lovely view of part of the course.

We chose to sit outside which was wonderful on a pleasant evening. We ordered a particular Pinot Noir. The server came back with tastes of two alternates as they were out of what we ordered. We saw this as awesome customer service! We ordered the burrata with tapenade appetizer and it was the highlight of the evening. The Moroccan chicken dish sounded fantastic, but was just OK. The flavorings were interesting, but after several bites felt too intense. And why was there so much arugula on top? The Trout arrived with a burnt crust and was dry. The server responded the right way and offered a second chance. That arrived looking much better, but was absolutely raw in the middle. The setting, the server's warm customer service, the appetizer, and the wonderful Pinot Noir are reasons for the three stars. They just need to find a chef that can execute the promise of the menu.

The dining car was a special treat, the meal overall was very good but could have been better with a little attention to detail. The rigatoni pasta dish was absolutely perfect , popping with flavor and as good as any I've ever had. We ordered a couple glasses of pinot noir with our dinner and when they arrived they were noticeably warm like 80-85 degrees like they had been roasting in the sun , not a pleasant room temp like they should be. We also ordered a large caesar salad that we all split and the lettuce was warm like it was sitting in a window soaking up the sun, plate was not chilled and even if it was it couldn't have cooled down hot lettuce, salad was light on dressing , the halved petite romaine was very bitter, i've purchased this lettuce at costco a couple times and stopped buying it because the petit romaine tends to be very bitter, i love the consistency of the smaller denser heads of lettuce but the bitterness is unpleasant .....hopefully the chef is tasting his food and can see what he thinks. My wife ordered the pasta with shrimp and loved it! My dad had the rib eye and said it was pretty good but maybe not 57$ good. The pasta dishes were 10/10 amazing , reasonably priced and generous in size , the warm wine and salad is an easy fix, it was a nice treat after a week of camping and cooking to not have to , so highly recommend giving them a try for dinner during your stay!! Mountain scenery was incredible from the campground!! The pool was a little crowded at times but we enjoyed a couple hours of pool time both days. The host in the campground Frank and his dog Reno were great !! We really enjoyed our visit and wouldn't hesitate to stop in again, a lovely place to spend a couple days !!! Thank you!!!Cheers !!

    They've gone downhill under the new owners…read more The food is worse and costs 50% more. We've been going to railroad park resort since the 1990's and eating there every time we come through town - 2-3 times a year. They used to make a great steak, with a deep dark sauce with mashed potatoes and veggies. I recently ordered the steak - $58.00 - making it the most expensive entree in the area (including the high end places in Mccloud, etc) and it had no sear. was under cooked. Had no seasoning. No sauce. The potatoes were rubber and the veggies were gross. The pork chop was similarly under-cooked and had the same sides -so same feedback. I looked for a manager to talk to and couldn't find one. So I messaged them on facebook and they told me I could come by any time and talk to the cook. Where was the cook the night I was there? I was told there was no manager to talk to. I only eat their when vactioning and can't just pop in. I live 5 hours away. If they're going to raise their prices from $40 to $60 for a steak - they need to up their gave. Instead they dropped the ball. The food isn't worth it and they don't care.

The onions add that extra dimension of a flavor package and I appreciate how the dressing came on the side so I can manage how much to not have a dressing shower to contend with. The beef was SO good that I ended up having all of it on its own. It's too good to contend with diluting it with other flavors or textures. Best salad I've had in a long while and I've been on a salad kick lately. The restaurant has a nice ambiance and the server was friendly but only moderately attentive. Overall the restaurant might have been a 3.5-4 and I only know what I've tried but given this first experience this place gets a big 5!
