Located in the small town of Creston, near the General Store and Loading Chute, is Longbranch Saloon. When we arrived, we saw a sign that pointed us to the entrance outside, off to the left. You're lead to a Beer Garden, with a lot of seating, heaters, tents and even a stage for events. They sat us near a heater, since we had our daughter and it was cold out. The liquor menu is one of the largest I've ever seen. I ordered the Almost Fried Pickles. Those were awesome. The breading was evenly coated, salty, crunchy, with briny pickle in the middle. It was served with a house ranch that had some tang and creamy pepper, great mixed. Next, Creston Burger, subbed chicken breast for burger, added fried egg and avocado. The dynamics for the fresh, fluffy brioche bun, salty, crunchy onion strings, very juicy, white meat chicken breast, Jack cheese adding fat, fresh tomato, lettuce, and pickles. Then add the fried egg and avocado for creamy fat and homemade sauce and bbq sauce adding zing and creaminess making for one complete burger. The fries served with it were perfectly done. Salty, warm, crunchy, yet soft in the middle. Perfect. To end it all, Crème Brûlée Cheesecake! This cheese cake was truly one of the best I've had. Warm, yes, warm. The top, signature, crème brûlée candied top. The cheese cake was creamy, great depth of vanilla/crème brûlée cheesecake flavor. Shockingly Great! We have to bring my parents. *Wish I could make it 4.5/5, reason 4/5.* read more

We came to a late lunch/ early dinner on a hot afternoon with our pups. We sat out in the beautiful outdoor seating. And what I loved was that the first thing the staff did when we sat down was bring our pups two bowls of water with ice!! What a nice touch:) Now for the food, it was amazing! I had the Beet Salad with chicken & my husband had a burger with fries. We also got the fried pickles - Delicious! Such a great atmosphere with wonderful service. Looking forward to coming back! read more

Longbranch Saloon - Seriously amazing burgers, atmosphere is great the hospitality is top notch!!! We will be back!!! - Burgers Near Me - Creston, California

What a freaking gem!! We were SO pleasantly surprised by this place! We had a group of 8 and they sat us right away. Service was absolutely amazing and quick. I have an allergy and they made my burger incorrectly. However, they caught the mistake and remade it before it ever touched our table. Then, 2 different waitresses came to the table to tell me what happened and to apologize for the delay in me getting my food. The menu may seem like your basic burger joint but please believe the flavor combinations are outstanding! We are already planning another trip because we want to try every burger! This is 100% worth the drive to Creston! You will not be disappointed. If I could leave more than 5 stars, I would. read more

They got a new chef and everything was delicious! My daughter had the kids chicken tenders and they were hands down the BEST tenders ever!! My son got the kids cheeseburger and I got the candied jalapeno bacon burger and OMG! The spice was perfect, the burger was pink in the middle and juicy! My family friend got the pulled pork and said it was the best she has ever had. The fries were delicious as always! Every time we are in the area we order from Longbranch. read more

Fish & Chips on Friday are the BOMB! In this age of inflation with servings getting smaller- they're definitely bucking the trend, generous portions served up by bartending superstar Darcy. FAB and MEGA DELISH!! See ya' next Friday at the Shortstick! read more

Food is great and the beer is cold. Sitting in the back watching the sunset eating fried pickles... the good life.

Second time eating here. S-O had the Creston burger topped with fresh, crispy onion rings and bbq sauce served with fries. Really tasty. This is the second time I have ordered the N'AWLINS SHRIMP. Found it really good but too lemony. I prefer my seafood without lemons and prefer sauces. At $15 for this dish the jumbo shrimp was not peeled only the back of. Had to take my fork and knife to remove them though that was not a success. Used my fingers which would get saucy. Love this Shrimp but next time will ask my server if the shrimp is PEELED first and to not add the sliced lemons. Love the drive from Atascadero to Creston. So much open country, ranches and vineyards to visit this small, quaint Western town. read more

Food is fantastic as always. Service is excellent, and the ambiance is really cool too. It's a nice place to come get a damn good burger! read more

We had a real fun time one Sunday afternoon back in February 22. Friendly staff, friendly people, lots of outdoor seating, music, people in cowboy boots, a real family gathering place. I had the excellent Candied Jalapeño Burger and fresh lemonade. My friends had beers, we played pool inside and had the most amazing time. So much so we had to stay in the area another night. Hospitality at its best. Highly recommend. read more

Good burrata salad and shrimp ceviche coupled with a country down home personal smiling service makes this a " can't miss" in Creston!

This is my favorite burger place and it is 4 miles from my brothers ranch! I love sitting at the bar, drinking a beer and eating a perfectly cooked and very juicy burger. Each of the Candied Jalapeno Bacon Burger, Green Chili Burger or Creston Burger's are great. The buns are fresh and toasted perfectly, crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. The meat is cooked properly and dressed as you order it. The fries are cooked nicely, crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. The ambience is old town western to the hilt! I cant wait till my next lunch! read more

Best damn burgers around. Had the prime rib dip sandwich and that was awesome. Everything is good and service from Kianna was great read more

Hot in the city, hot in the city tonight. Ok, Longbranch ain't in the City but this place is Hot! Been on my to do list for months and tonight was the night and it was definitely alright! First off, fun, curvy, winding road kinda drive from the 101. This made the anticipation even better. Creston is a cool, little country town with an awesome vibe. Walked inside, friendly locals surround every bit of space possible. It's kid friendly, it's really friendly! Feels like a bar but trust me, it's better than the tv show Cheers. If me & my fam go back soon, they'll know our name. It's that kind of place. Order the fried pickles. They're pretty much friend disks of awesomeness. My kids ordered the sliders off of the kids menu and licked their plates clean. Not kidding. It happened. My plus 2, my better half....we both ordered burgers. Well, we pretty much died, went to heaven. They were that good. So good that I might not be able to dig on another burger like this anytime soon. Take a drive, put some good tunes on, go to Longbranch Saloon. Check it out. Thank me later. You're welcome! read more

Outdoor family eatery. The burgers and fries were pretty good. The salad was decent. Good for family with kids.

What a great hidden gem out in the middle of nowhere! The food was absolutely delicious, service was friendly and quick, and the outdoor seating is beautiful! read more

Good food, nice people. However: these people are doing almost nothing to protect their employees and guests from C19, and it took a long time to get food. Apparently they're very concerned about the drought, because I never could get a refill on my water. If you think good food and nice people are worth your life, you'll love this place. read more

An unexpected great find in a tiny little town! The menu is simple but well executed. The pull pork sandwich and portabella burger are flavorful, although the buns could be a bit sturdier. A generous portion of fries accompanied the sandwiches and burgers. They are the star of the show! I never eat all the fries with my burgers but I did these. The famous fried pickles are interesting but best shared with a group of 4. Tables in the large outdoor patio are well spaced. Service is very efficient. read more

I had my sons 7th birthday party here last weekend and it was a hit! Jess accommodated our large party even when the restaurant was super busy. The employees Crespin, Nate M, and Laura where amazing! These three even help us tape our tablecloths down, set up, and made my sons party perfect! My kids enjoyed the half pipe and play area which was such a plus! This is hands down the best local restaurant in SLO county! 10/10 recommend! My father is even wanting to do his wedding reception here due to the space, the stage, and amenities! The staff is so hard working! My favorite thing about this restaurant is that Jessica hires teenagers! This is such an important thing for our small community, and really gives these kids a chance to learn responsibility and so many other important morals and values! Not a lot of places do this, and I think this sets Long Branch aside from all other places! Again i want to say 10/10 for Crespin who is one of the teenagers who was our busser. He was so great, friendly, and funny! Thank you long branch! read more

Nice place to hang out. We stop there when riding our motorcycles. Need to get some gluten free beer selections, but otherwise super fun

Good food reasonably priced. Great selection of beers and alcohol had the green chili berger, it was very good.

Order To-go on 4/21, drove 25 minutes to pick up the order, waited 30minutes inside of restaurant for said order after it should've already been done, then was told they were out of patties & had to drive 25 minutes back home empty handed to 6 people. Why couldn't i have been told that when i first arrived & checked in for my order? Why didn't the person who answered the phone confirm with the kitchen they could still fulfill my order? Absolutely ridiculous. I also confirmed when i called that my order could still be accommodated & was told yes, twice. We dine here fairly often, at least 2x a month, sadly i don't see us going back anytime soon or recommending anymore to friends and family. read more

Had their fish and chips, was very greasy, and was told the special was $16:00, when the bill came it was $18:00, didn't question, paid and left. read more

Sad I've been here before and a good time but today I brought friends to enjoy the Sunday sunshine and we couldn't get served. We knew we were a big group but at least bring us some water. We sat for 20min. The young waitress missed a great opportunity we were hungry and thirsty. read more

Great burgers and pulled pork in an outdoor farmhouse kind of vibe. The service has been really good both times we've been here.

We are regulars My family and I regularly hang out at the Longbranch Saloon. Pandy, the chef, creates wonderful meals. I usually order a special. I have not had a bad meal yet. During the cooler months I order the soup. It doesn't matter what the soup is. It is warm delicious, comforting, and filling. The cocktails are pretty good too. My current cocktail is the Whiskey Peach. There are so many to try. I love the atmosphere, the wait staff, the bands, food, drinks, and owners. read more

Took a long time to place our order. First impression is everything. When the food came, oh boy it was the best burger ever!! To die for pulled pork sliders. read more

Fun outdoor patio environment. There's a reason people show up for lunch before the kitchen opens at noon. The food is freaking awesome. This is the best burger mom and I have had in a long time. And the fries come out on your plate crispy and hot. A bit out of the way but worth the little jaunt off of HWY 101 at Atascadero. Cute little town. Recommend. read more

The food was all tasty, including the chili burger that I got. My favorite menu item though would be the fried pickles. They were done really well. If I went again I'd ask for another cup of sauce though. Also there's a half pipe for skateboarding so that's pretty cool. read more

Hands down one of the best burgers I have had. The fries are on point! Drinks are super tasty. Get the La Pistola, jalapeño margarita, soooo good! Staff is a mix from friendly to rude, just depends on who you get. One of the girls only pays attention to my husband and doesn't know I exist. Seriously, lol. Talked only to him asked him what he wanted to drink and walked away, I had to say excuse me, can I have something to drink too?!? She came back to the table, oh yeah sorry what can I get you? She didn't change her tune after that either , her behavior continued. Yep hubby is very good looking, I get it. But really?!?!?! Lmao read more

Stopped in from a beautiful day searching for wildflowers. We were going to stay and eat but the servers were not wearing mask. In fact our server stated that the only reason she decided to work there was after a year off she took this job because she didn't have to wear a mask. None of the employees were masked! After we left we walked by the post office that had strict Covid guidelines to entering. So we know the little town is aware there is a pandemic. Unfortunately we will never return . read more
