The servers are ALL really great! Crestline cafe has the best Impossible burger I've ever had. The bun is just right, toasted and sturdy. They have really good fries here too. And I don't know how hard it is to make iced tea at a restaurant, but theirs is always delicious. I don't eat meat, but my husband does, and he loves the birria tacos! He gets them on Mondays only. Grateful for this cafe! read more

We came here on a Sunday night over Memorial Day weekend for dinner. It was just the three of us but the restaurant had a pretty good flow of foot traffic. The staff was amazing and very attentive to our table. Food came out in a timely manner. My daughter had the chicken strips, my husband had the Best Western burger no onion rings and I had the French dip. We also got a side of steak fries but I wouldn't pay the extra $2 for them. We recommend this place when you stop in Crestline. read more

This would be 5 stars normally, but it took quite awhile for the waitress to even come to our table to take our order. And it took quite awhile to get our food. Other than the waits,the menu had great selections (we went for Saturday morning breakfast), and the food was phenomenal. I ordered the "Sizzling Spuds", which was AH-MAZING. read more

Crestline Cafe - Sizzling Spuds, Chicken-fried steak w/ potatoes and biscuits and gravy. - American Near Me - Crestline, California

Worth the wait.... Food and service was very good. We were pleasantly surprised. I had Blueberry Pancakes with eggs and my eggs were cooked just right. My husband ordered the Top Sirloin and eggs. Steak was cooked perfectly and very tender. We will be back!!! Thank you to Gabriel for the amazing service!!! read more

Breakfast being the most (scrumptious) important meal of the day, I wish they served it past 3pm. But, how can you be mad at these people?! It was extremely difficult to choose between all of the interesting concoctions but we decided on the classic eggs Benedict with hash browns, and eggs n' cognito with country potatoes. Fucking incredible!! Firstly, the portions are super generous, especially for the price. Then, it's all the little things that made a huge difference. Let's talk about the eggs Benedict. I've never seen English muffins this large. Where do you even find these? Do they bake these themselves?? (Are English muffins even baked? I guess they're actually fried on a griddle, but I digress......) Then, they are reallly not messin' around with the girth of this ham steak, which is also not dried out, nor overly salty, but quite tender. Topped off with the most perfectly poached eggs, and a delicious hollandaise. Heaven! The hash browns were also nice and crispy. Perfect breakfast joint on the mountain. read more

Crestline Cafe - Deep fried stuffed French toast! You haven't lived till you've tried this! I will be stopping by next time I'm local. - American Near Me - Crestline, California

Delicious food, friendly service, and quiet diner. Small but wide range of foods and served special items such as Lou Eddie's frozen pizzas. This place has been a unique place to eat every time we visit Crestline. Definitely come here for a cozy brunch or a dinner with friends during a night out. read more

I'm so glad that we have this cafe in our small community of Crestline. We order take out every so often when I don't feel like cooking much and we have a few items that we like to rotate between visits. I try to order during the mid week as the weekends can be busy with tourists, when I order during the week I notice a difference in presentation which I can appreciate. My son loves the kids cheese burger, my guy and I usually share the Philly style French dip, and split the grilled chicken salad with dressing on the side. You can't go wrong with any of the burgers but for the most part I order a regular crestline burger with bacon, avocado and grilled onions. I also like to order the chicken and green chili soup whenever they have it. The servers are polite and the food is good, we are always happy to support the folks at Crestline Cafe. read more

We came here after hiking around Lake Gregory Regional Park, it looked like there was a bit of rush but we were seated right away! The server had great customer service, there were a few times that something had slipped their mind but all in all, they were amazing! The food is what makes me give it 3 stars; my mother, her fiancé, and I all ordered 3 different meals and we like to have a variety to try each other's dishes. The eggs Benedict was a bit too soggy for me, I only ate one biscuit and left the other one on the plate at the restaurant but the first bite wasn't bad! 5.5/10; I'd say. The mountain climber I believe was hefty, hearty, and filling! With potatoes, cheese, bacon, and the goods spilling out across the skillet dish smelled great. Same with the Benedict however, we got sick of the flavor quick. 6/10, you can't really hate a potato you know? The Garden scramble was completely devoured! My mother's fiancé prefers not to eat meat so this was a veggies centered dish. He said it was a good meal and I'd give it a 7/10! Tl;dr! This place isn't a bad place to stop by but I wouldn't visit again personally. American home style, hearty, brunch/breakfast, anywho bye now read more

I recently moved to crestline and have eaten at the Cafe several times and the food is always delicious and amazing.

Stayed in Crestline during a snow storm. First thing I wanted when I woke up was a country diner type of breakfast. That is what I found in the Crestline Cafe. They have an excellent menu and some of their own takes on favorites. I ordered blueberry pancakes, eggs and bacon and coffee. The pancakes were loaded with blueberries and I was offered Maple and blueberry syrup. The bacon was thick cut and crispy salty goodness. The scrambled eggs were fluffy and creamy. The coffee was hot and flavourful. The waitress was very attentive and pleasant. I live the warmth and ambience of the restaurant. Very cozy and we'll decorated for the holidays. read more

Can I just say.. the staff was WONDERFUL!! The food Excellent!! Best Arnold Palmer ever! Our servers were very courteous and kind.

When people ask why I chose Crestline, when moving up the mountain, I tell them "it has a great coffee shop, hardware store, record shop, grocer, and a fantastic diner - and what more could I need?" Great breakfast food and I actually really enjoy the French dip (not always easy to find a good French dip at a café). The staff is always super nice, too. It was recently purchased by one of the staff members, so I can only imagine it will continue to grow and become even better as years go by. Get there early for breakfast because it can get busy, especially on the weekends. read more

Great spins on traditional favorites. Food was so delicious, honey, and potatoes were made perfectly crispy. Service was great! read more

Good burger and coleslaw! Good service too! I'm a woman of few words, but this is a great location in the middle of town near Lake Gregory next to the post office. Been here a few times now that I spend more time up here. Come try it! read more

You just can't bet the wonderful service, smiling faces, coffee & corn beef hash and eggs over medium at this place! Don't forget to order sourdough toast as well It's truly yummy read more

A little dated. Food was good and price was decent. Service was quick and friendly. I will come back.

I always go here for their sirloin dinner. It hits the spot everytime! The staff is always nice and they make sure to include everything you need to grub. read more

Came here for breakfast on a Saturday morning at about 9:30. No wait, seated immediately. Service was great and food was excellent. Omelettes were spot on and even the squaw toast was done perfect. We live here part time and will definitely be back soon. Nice to have a go-to place for a great meal! It did start to get busy with a wait as we left. read more

The food is good but the service is not the greatest. If you have all day to get seated and your food served. I recommend this place.

The workers are so sweet and make great conversation. They did a wonderful job with my nails! Although the accent nail is a bit crooked I totally understand thought because it was hard. read more

Food is slow to arrive ,but worth the wait. Was a little shocked to get charged a mandatory service charge for 4 adults and 3 toddlers. When I enquired about it she said it was for all "large parties" -- We only took up one standard table with 4 chairs and a couple of high chairs. . Hahaha read more

Always ask the locals where they like to go and what they like to order. That's my philosophy when eating and traveling. This spot is a local favorite where their soups are always delicious as well as the bread it comes with. It's quite a deal, I must say. You can order a bowl of soup of one variety (like their French onion soup) and then order another kind after that. Quite a filling meal on its own. Or you can try their hot turkey open faced sandwich like I did. Turkey breast is oven roasted daily and gravy is made from its drippings. Legit in my book. The soft bread on the bottom is perfection. The freshly made mashed potatoes will make you swoon. read more

Horrible service. Bunch of young people walking around doing nothing. Not even a "we'll be right with you" Never again. Sat in silence for 15 minutes. read more

Went here with my boyfriend to have breakfast. Saw it on Google maps and it had a great rating already. Overall food was great and it also had a great atmosphere. I love the service here as well. 5/5 read more

A great little cafe in Crestline. The lunch we had was very very good and once our party of 5 got seated the service was good. Long wait to get in as it's small plus the Covid situation on seating. All in all, we all were happy with the experience. If your on Crestline and looking for a good basic meal, head for this cafe. We relied on our fellow Yelpers and they were right, as usual. read more

$30 for a kids meal, side of eggs and biscuits and gravy, a coffee, tea and chocolate milk. The pancakes for kids meal were literally tougher than a steak. Biscuits were old/burnt. Asked for extra eggs instead of meat on the kid's meal so they just left off the meat and gave the same amount of eggs. We were super hungry so we ate it all but I won't be back. I HIGHLY suggest the drive to Osario Bros instead. It also didn't help the staff were openly arguing in earshot of all the customers. Blegh... read more

If you are visiting Lake Arrowhead make sure to go the 10 minutes out of your way to eat at the Crestline Cafe'. Plenty of delicious food options- many very healthy options. Of course there are some heavenly desert options like the fresh fruit burrito that apparently is assembled and then deep fried- I didn't order it but I will absolutely be having food dreams tonight :-) The service was good despite being very busy. The wait staff kept my coffee refilled and the food came out as soon as it was ready. This is NOT fast food- there is a McDonald's up the street for that! Crestline Cafe offers fresh, cooked beautifully prepared breakfast and lunch options and plated very nicely. The food is Instagram worthy. Take the time to eat here...the servers are trying their best but remember... good food takes time to prepare! read more

We stop in for breakfasts while riding through the mountains. Service is usually slow, but very friendly. Their breakfasts are always reliably good. Nothing stands out as delicious, but nothing has ever been bad. We usually have omelettes, or pancakes, typical breakfast fare. Their machaca breakfast is also food. Coffee is decent. Bathrooms are clean. Good place to stop if you are in the area. read more

Great food awesome service and very friendly nice menu too pick from prices are reasonble it has plenty of parking and very cozy
