I visited twice and had really good service set at the bar seem to be a little more welcoming than a lot of places for someone who was solo. I had great wine from local wineries the people next to me were enjoying a variety of local beers. The night I was there I had lamb pops which were absolutely wonderful and a small salad and these people next to me had these gigantic burgers and everybody seem to be happy and enjoying their food. The other time I went I had the burger as well and it was a lot of food in the burger was fine but again it's about my reasonable expectations of a restaurant and the prices that you will pay in a small Resort community. I give it 4 stars as much for the knowledgeable bartender who knows the wines the beers and the food all very well.... I did not go into the restaurant side so I can't really comment on it.

We checked out several restaurants in Cambria, but they were over the top for cost and we weren't in a $38 steak mood. Drove past this cute little place and liked the looks so in we went. Basic menu but all at the right price. My fish and chips were not beer battered, and I did ask first as those are always better, but these were good. I would think that this being in a bar that they would aim to make the best beer battered fish and chips in Cambria. One friend had the French dip, always good and the other the French bread bowl clam chowder which was tasty. So, not over the top or exciting but basic good food. Fun and friendly waitress too. New owners are coming in from Modesto and we're from Turlock so how could we go wrong?!?!?

Stopped here for lunch while staying in the area. My wife and I had eaten here once before several months ago but decided to give it a try again since we didn't really remember our prior visit. My wife said her Ahi salad was very good and the service was very attentive and quick. The decor is like an old seaside building with lots of antiques and/or collectibles on the walls. It is in the west end of Cambria village and I would recommend this place for a very good meal and excellent service if you are visiting the area.

The service was very friendly and the food was good. The Chicken quesadilla was very good with lots of fresh grilled veggies and chicken. The prices are a little high but it is PCH and there are limited options.

As in previous reviews the wait is looong! We ate there once before for lunch a while back and weren't impressed. We went for dinner this time with friends so there was 7 of us. Food was delicious all around the table and view of the ocean was nice too. Brooke, we do have a lot of great customers, but we try to get them seated and served as fast as we can! We're glad to hear your group had a great dinner with great views. Hope to see you again soon!Sincerely,John, Owner

1. Ragged Point Inn

This was our second visit to Ragged Point in 3 days. We stopped here to have some snacks and to change/feed our baby. The first visit was pleasant - attentive waiter, and hot fries ... slightly overpriced but we felt it was worth it for the view. During our second visit, we did not have a sit down meal at the restaurant but my husband bought hot drinks from the cafe within the inn. That day, the public restrooms at Ragged Point were out of order. There was a queue of 5 people at the Restaurant waiting to use the restrooms there. We were at the end of the queue, with our baby and when it finally came to our turn - a rude waitress told us we were not able to use the facilities as we were not having a sit down meal. None of the people in front of us had been confronted! After being turned away, we went to check if the public restrooms were free - but to no avail. We even checked with the restaurant a further time, and the same waitress was abrupt, rude and showed no empathy to our situation. We had to change our baby in the cold outside! Stunning views but overpriced food and some incredibly rude, abrasive staff. If you want to succeed in hospitality, learn the basics and show some kindness. It is not ok to force a baby to be changed in the cold outside.
