Cozy is a great way to describe this place. It has a local pub feel. Their selection of beer is always changing and always good. The food is also quite exceptional. We love the Mac and Cheese and the flash fried brussels sprouts are awesome. Also be sure to get the house cooked chips.
2. Huy Fong Foods

You learn the history of the how the globally famous Huy Fong Siracha sauce came about to the world. You go to their factory and learn the whole process. Check their website to make sure they have tours available. Best time to go is during the Fall season when they harvest because there are more activities and freebies.

Haugh Performing Center is an excellent theater, well managed, comfortable seating, great sound no matter where you sit in this 1400 seat theater. Every season has quality selection of musical shows & any time the Citrus Singers perform is a sold out show.

Seemed like a nice clean mall. Not too overpriced with their stores, and not too cheap either. Nice comfortable mall. The top floor was a little warm that day so it was kind of uncomfortable. The food court was rather small too. However there were several nice looking restaurants to choose from. Would definitely come here again!!

This museum provides a great history of drag racing with cars from every era and most classes. This museum is right up there with the Daytona and Indy museums.
6. Frank G. Bonelli Regional Park

A huge beautiful park for kids, pets, walkers, runners, gatherings, reunions, picnics and whatever. No alcoholic beverages are permitted on the property altho many people bring coolers full of it. We have had many family gatherings here and always had a good time. No fee's to park or use the facilities. My only concern is that there are usually a few 'odd' ones that wander the grounds and I wouldn't recommend letting your children out of your visual site, or let them go to the restrooms alone. Farther up the road and past the park a bit, there are hiking trails that are very interesting. Just be sure to wear shoes that cover your feet (no sandals) and long pants because there are snakes and nasty looking spiders. We recommend this location.

Terrific craft brewery with a wide selection for just about any taste. Inviting atmosphere to just sit and relax while visiting with friends and family. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable about their craft and brews. Food truck is usually available on site. Well worth your time to visit whether you're local or from out of town.

This volunteer run history of the railroads and its impact on the region is not to be missed! The Docent led tour of this small, but packed with memorabilia museum, was very informative and enjoyable.
I think it is a MUST SEE when visiting the San Dimas area.

This is a nice place to just chill-out with friends and family or even by yourself. Beware of the geese because sometimes geese can be aggressive though I haven't been hassled by them at Santa Fe Dam Rec Area...not yet that is.
I found this place because the Renaissance Faire is located there for 6 weekends and is the primary draw for me & my family. Whether you come to picnic or get in the water or go to the amazing Renn. Faire this place is perfect...ENJOY!
10. Crystal Lake
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 16 reviews
Reviewed By SanMo - Malibu, California
We came to Crystal Lake via the Lake road…so much fun to drive and so beautiful. The café has a standard menu of breakfast and lunch items. My burger and fries were simply okay. Inside the café is sorta a general store. Owner and family run it. Nice people.
It did get a bit crowded but everyone is in a good mood up in the beautiful hills.
Don’t think I’d return for the food but certainly for the views. 3 star food with a 10 star view—wait only goes to five! They get 3 cause this review is café and not the view.
There is also a ranger-visitor station there with more info about the areas.
