The Corvette and the Peanut Butter Malt!!!…read more If you're anywhere near the mountains, do yourself a favor and stop by Cedar Glen Malt Shop. This was hands down one of the best burgers and malts I've ever had. The burger was fresh, juicy, perfectly seasoned, and cooked just right. Every bite tasted like it was made with care instead of rushed out of the kitchen. Then came the malt, thick, creamy, and packed with flavor. It was the perfect classic pairing with an already incredible burger. One of the coolest touches is how they name many of their burgers after classic cars. It's a fun, nostalgic theme that fits the old-school malt shop atmosphere and gives the menu a personality you don't see very often. Great food, friendly service, and a unique experience make this place well worth the drive. I'll definitely be coming back to work my way through the rest of those "car" burgers. Highly recommended!

I came here as a family of five, and overall enjoyed our experience…read more Service was overall friendly, very good and quick. However, I had to ask for one or two things multiple times. The kids meal was adorable and came in a cardboard 50 style car. If you're gonna order the macaroni and cheese, just be aware that it takes a little longer to cook compared to everything else, but it comes out hot. However, the noodles are slightly overcooked. The fish and chips are made with cod and I highly recommend. Very crispy and hot. You get three fairly generous pieces per order. The thing that really makes this place shine are there milkshakes and malts. We offered to upgrade the kids beverage to a peanut butter chocolate milkshake for a very affordable price and served as dessert for the whole table. This place is no-frills, but very family friendly. There were lots of families there. For napkins, they had a giant roll of paper towels on every table. The bathrooms were fairly clean.

Disappointing experience and poor communication from management…read more We visited this restaurant while in Lake Arrowhead and unfortunately left with a bad impression of how management handles situations involving guests with pets. Upon arrival, we informed the host that our party of five included our 10 month old miniature dachshund. We were told pets were welcome and that the wait would be approximately 20-30 minutes. Once seated on the patio, we were asked to keep our puppy on the ground rather than on our laps due to hygiene concerns, which we completely understood and immediately complied with. Our puppy did bark occasionally, and we were actively trying to keep her calm with treats while remaining mindful of those around us. After ordering our second round of drinks, our waitress approached us and informed us that her manager wanted our dog to leave because of her barking. My issue isn't that her barking was addressed, but how the situation was handled. We were never given a warning or an opportunity to correct the behavior before being told she needed to leave. Had someone communicated their concerns beforehand, we would have gladly stepped away or made adjustments. What made the situation even more disappointing was that the manager couldn't come speak to us directly and instead left our waitress to deliver the message. She was incredibly kind and apologetic, even acknowledging that a child repeatedly running and dancing nearby appeared to be getting our puppy excited. She apologized again when we requested our tab and made it clear that this was management's decision. We understand that being dog-friendly doesn't mean allowing disruptive behavior, but basic communication and courtesy go a long way. We've visited plenty of dog-friendly establishments and have never experienced anything like this. Our waitress was wonderful, but management's lack of professionalism and communication left a bad taste in our mouths. Unfortunately, we won't be returning

Spade & Spatula in Blue Jay is such a great find, especially if you're vegetarian!…read more The huge selection of vegetarian options is actually what made me want to stop here, and I'm so glad we did. We got the Cali veggie burger and spicy veggie burger, and both were AMAZING. Honestly, one of the best veggie burgers I've had. We got fries with one and a salad with the other. If ever confused, GET THE FRIES They were so fresh and delicious! The staff were super friendly, there's plenty of parking in the lot, and it's just a short drive from Lake Arrowhead. They have a ton of indoor and outdoor seating, with cool art on the walls. Definitely coming back here every time we're in the Lake Arrowhead area!

STEPH JUDGEMENT: Friendly place, with good food and lots of local art…read more Our friends who are Lake Arrowhead locals suggested we meet here for lunch. It was quaint and welcoming, with friendly servers. They had a good number of vegetarian options (which was why our friends suggested it), and the hubby got the Bbq veggie burger with fries, and I got the veggie mushroom cheese steak sandwich. The hubby thought his burger was just ok, but the fries were amazing. I in turn thought my sandwich was great, but the side salad was just fine. Our friends enjoyed their grilled salmon salads. When I said there was lots of local art, they had them everywhere, even the bathroom! Some nice stuff, too. Definitely worth stopping in.

Our first visit to the Lake Arrowhead sports grill and bar was fantastic…read more I was afraid to go there as I pictured multiple tvs blaring at me, and while they did have several tvs with sports on, the volume was off, and they offered to change the channel for us, so it really wasn't intrusive at all. Our waiter could not have been nicer. I wish I could remember his name. He was so kind and eager to make our visit a good one. We started with the deep fried mushrooms which were good, but a little too heavily battered for my taste. They came with 2 dipping sauces, a spicy aoli style and an Asian chili sauce (sweet). I had the grilled salmon with lemon caper sauce. It came with your choice of 2 sides. I got the fully loaded baked potato and steamed vegetables. My meal was delicious and a large serving that I could not finish. Good value at $24. My husband got the ribeye with herb roasted potatoes and a salad. The salad was large and fresh with plenty of carrots and tomatoes. The herb roasted potatoes were delicious, but I would definitely get the fully loaded baked potato again. My husband said his ribeye was delicious and cooked exactly as he asked (medium). I had a martini which was a generous pour and the bartender even hand-stuffed some olives with blue cheese for me which was really kind as the bar was quite busy. The atmosphere was great - filled with people enjoying themselves dining, talking, and laughing. Restrooms were spacious and clean. My only complaint was that the seats were hard wood. It would be nice to have cushions of some sort, but that won't stop us from coming back for the good food & drinks, and great service at lake arrowhead sports grill and bar!

But, but, it's okay because they offer so many great beers, sours and seltzers, whether seasonal or on a regular rotation, that finding new favorites are a no-brainer.

More importantly, I remembered to grab some growlers to take home with me this time! All in all, this is still our favorite brewery when we're up in this area.

The elderly white guy and the young Hispanic lady who work there were super friendly and pretty great. The few dishes that I had a chance to try were tasty and pretty well-priced; except for the pies. However, that one occasion where the Hispanic cook came outside, stared at my bf and I without saying a word, then proceeded to seat the white folks who signed up on the wait list after us instead, and then finally blatantly lied about it in Spanish thinking that I wouldn't understand because I'm Asian when I went inside to inquire, well, that whole experience left such a massively unpleasant racial scar that I simply cannot bring myself to ever return. It has been a few years since, and this still stings and pains me so much to prompt this write-up. Fortunately, there are many other great local food establishments in the area to partake!
