Grizzly's Bear Belly Deli

Reviewed By mrem

They make fresh sandwiches at time of order. We always get the TAB and it is HUGE.Everything is fresh and they give you a choice of bread and tons of sandwich toppings included in the order. Also they have really good fries with seasoning salt. They are a little on the pricey-er side of sandwiches, but this is no Subway.

This place has traditional great food, and PIE! Glorious pie! The portions are big and the service is friendly, with a view of the main street through 'The Village'. ** Do note: they only take cash **

No Name Pizza

Reviewed By Paula M

Eat there or take it home. What was once a small restaurant located in a single building, No Name Pizza has grown. There is a selection of salads, sandwiches, as well as pizza toppings. The place is clean, waitresses helpful, with a choice of indoor or outdoor seating. Don't expect fast food. Pizza's are prepared fresh with the option of having it baked or boxed for you to take home and bake. The salads are large enough to share so one can be divided, nothing like pizza and salad.

Broadway Cafe

Reviewed By Steven C

We live in the Big Bear Valley but had never stopped by this cafe before. It is very small with only three 4-person tables inside so the majority of their seating is outside. (Which is not good when the weather is cold and breezy.) The food is reasonably priced and they have a fairly extensive menu of sandwich and breakfast items with a handful of salads. They also offer Coke products and some beer. My hamburger was ok but nothing spectacular, my wife's kalua pulled pork sandwich was very good. The place can be very loud when full of patrons as they also have a TV going all the time and the acoustics are horrible. It is located on Big Bear Boulevard and it has ample off street parking. I would rate this place somewhere between 'Average' and 'Very Good'.

Reviewed By marhow2001

The highly rated Peppercorn Grille did not disappoint. This local family owned establishment offers a comfortable setting with tasteful decor and a limited outdoor seating area in which to watch the street foot traffic. The menu is mostly Italian fare with some Americana items here and there, especially with the meat dishes and appetizers. The food and service were very good and the portions most generous. Compared with the competition in Big Bear Lake Peppercorn Grille is expensive but worth a visit. Reservations are necessary during peak dining hours.

B.J's Restaurant

Reviewed By James S

Great hamburgers. Quarter pounder, Third pounder, and 2/3 pounder - 2 parties. I think you could even get a full pound of meat. Lots of fixins and a side. Great bun. The price was very reasonable for a great burger. Pitchers of beer were available and cheap for a resort area. This is a sma!! Quaint restaurant with small picnic type tables and bench seats. Also outside deck seating. I think my 2/3 pounder was about $11. This is a real burger. We will definitely be back.

Lumberjack Cafe

Reviewed By MexVacationing

We have tried every other breakfast place in Big Bear and hands down Lumber Jack has good service, healthy portions, and made to order food. For 2 people its 29.00 dollars. Place is always busy so expect a wait to get the food out to table. Fresh coffee and unlimited refills, just ask. We found out it is family owned and operated.

Grizzly Manor Cafe

Reviewed By cburnsesq

The only negative is no mimos or bloody mary's! Otherwise this place absolutely rocks. Old school diner style food. Bad a** hashbrowns. Super yummy bacon. Huge pancakes. Biscuits & Gravy. Everything you would want and need in a breakfast and always cooked to perfection. Large portions. Totally reasonably priced. Service on point. Yeah, you're a little crammed in and if you show up after 8am you might have a wait, but its worth it.

We were a party of 5 and were able to seat immediately. Food was good and service was a little slow but okay. I didn't give it 5 stars because it didn't WOW me but was decent. We had 2 kids with us and they offered a kids meal so that helped.
