The inside is spacious with two different seating areas and a seating area outside. I got a vanilla latte and an everything bagel. The latte had a good flavor. The oat milk made it taste very creamy. The bagel was great. It was slightly crispy on the outside and soft with a slight chew on the inside. My puppy enjoyed the outside seating and being greeted and petted by the customers. Overall, I would return. I would like to try their lunch items.

The donuts were absolutely delicious--fresh, soft, and full of flavor. Honestly, we came from LA and don't usually find donuts quite like these! Each one felt special and thoughtfully made.

Highly recommend if you're in Big Bear!

Pros: * Espresso is delicious; I make protein coffee with it. * Nice staff * Coffee beans smell amazing. I didn't get any because I didn't see a price and forgot to ask when I go to the counter, oh well. * Poptart pastry is amazing! Its nice that they offer some pastries. Cons: * Ants. There were quite a bit on the counter with the creamers and honey. Extra: * They have a parking lot. Good amount of parking considering the location * Small inside. I got lucky and there were only 6 other ppl there. However, if your like me and get claustrophobic, I dont recommend it. Send someone else to order for you lol * There is a small porch seating area. Great for dogs.

They also told us about their offer for free hot coffee for PCT hikers. It was sunny, so we didn't go for it. What we got: Iced banana cream latte - so delicious! The fresh mashed banana and a pleasant sweetness made this drink my favorite. Iced vanilla latte with oat milk - excellent, solid choice Lavender matcha - this drink literally made my friend swoon with delight. So good! Iced americano - solid. We thoroughly enjoyed embodying Marty supreme in the back patio at the ping pong tables. Such a chill nice atmosphere!! I loved my visit here! Definitely recommend to future PCT hikers passing through. The staff were lovely!

It's been a few weeks since I visited Big Bear Lake. In search for a healthy beverage, I headed…read moreover to Rewind Collective, because I read somewhere that they have a Golden Milk drink that is worth every drop to make you feel whole again. Upon my arrival I discovered that Rewind Collective is more than a just a organic, healthy, wellness living shop, there are healthy foods pantry staples, herbal tincatures, incense, scented candles, and organic beauty care products as well. However, what was easily noticeable were the selections of carefully crafted acai bowls, toasts, organic coffees, teas, and matcha drinks, and tonics too. Yes, all the good stuff that I like to consume to keep myself healthy. I purchased a few items a bag of Wildly Organic Hot Chocolate to take back home to LA and a Hot Golden Milk to drink while sightseeing the lake. The owner informed me that the Wildly Organic Hot Chocolate is a beverage they serve hot at the shop. She assured me that I will enjoy it. Looking at the ingredients of this product, I was pretty sure that she was right. As for the the Golden Milk, I ordered it hot because it was a frigid cold day and I needed something to warm me up from the inside. The fact that the Golden Milk was made fresh impressed me when I had the first sip. It was reminiscent of the one from Erewon and Whole Foods. The version at Rewind Collective has sharper taste of ginger and plenty warming turmeric spice. The beautiful flower bud on top was a nice touch to look at while sipping this drink. While I wanted to stay in the back patio to slowly enjoy the Golden Milk, I had to get on my merry way to do more sightseeing of Big Bear Lake and eagle/bird watching. Rewind Collective is definitely a place off the beaten path to visit in Big Bear. It was worth dropping by this shop located a few blocks away from the Village.

Simply the best pies I've ever eaten. This kitschy little place has some norms/rules, not unlike a…read morefriendly version of the soup episode of Seinfeld. It's highly suggested to call to reserve your pie(s), which gives you until noon. Leave a message and Pickles or Mr. Pickles will call you back. The doors open at 10:30 to a line, a long line on weekends. They've made so many pies and when they're gone, they close. It's that simple. Now to the pies, the amazing pies. I don't like pie crust, but I love Pickles crust. I don't like fruit pies, but I love Pickles fruit pies, especially with berries. While you wait your turn, review the chalk board for the still available pies or slices. If you're a first timer, buy a different slice for everyone in your party and share, share, share. Now the best part. If you've lasted this long in this review, check if there are chicken pot pies still available. If so buy an extra, because you'll want another one the day after you eat the first. They're described as "one large serving" but we find one six inch pie is good for two servings. The other pot pies are good too, but the chicken are flown in from heaven. You're welcome.

I ordered their pork chops and egg breakfast, only able to eat about half. One plate was was two thick and juicy chops and a ton of perfect hash browns. The other plate had two thick slices of tasty sourdough toast and a couple of large eggs, served over easy; they were cooked to perfection. Service was beyond amazing even though this little joint was packed, the crew was happy, the music was perfect if you like lively tunes, even the cooks made appearances to circulate with the customers. My wife and I agreed, they all love their jobs, and the restaurant; they were having too much fun the morning we were there. It was a pleasure to behold. Worth the wait (if any) is all I can say.

In response to the owner's reply…read more.. Service isn't just serving food and tasting your food. It's a combination of your logistics and workflow of your organization. Perhaps unorganized in the kitchen or slow in production. This isn't merely just waiting but the fact that your own staff told us different wait times. We did wait. We waited according to your instructions and schedule. We were told many different wait times every time we followed up and asked. The time kept getting longer and longer when there were no other parties waiting but us. First we were told 30mins, then literally minutes later it changed. Then an additional 20mins added. Then, 30. Then we waited, and it changed again. They kept telling us it would be longer and longer. Why would the time go backwards? A small gilled cheese sandwich for an hour? One order. You can ask any business owner or any place outside of your small town that it is a ridiculous wait time for a customer to wait for that long for one small sandwich. Instead of arguing back with your customers, a decent thing to do would have been to apologize and just have accommodated the sandwich just for having us almost an hour of waiting without even getting in. A true business owner wouldn't have responded in how you did. Not only horrible service, but bad ownership practices so I see where it reflects poorly.

It should be embarrassing how fast I went from initial contact about a custom cake to actually…read morehaving to move away in order to stay out of this cute little stop, but it's not. I am obsessed with sweets but I'm picky. A good cinnamon roll or a slice of cake can cure *almost* anything, in my eyes. When they don't stand up to my expectations, I don't mean to be dramatic but the days ruined. Every single item i've tried at Sister My Sister Bake Shop, was a major hit. Cinnamon roll? perfect. Cookie? perfect. Cupcake? perfect. Brownies? perfect. Giant custom bear-head cake? drooooool. perfect. Cheesecake. gasp! & you guessed it: perfect. Lucy and her team over-deliver on everything: service, adorable and safe small town vibes, and delicious, only-on-the-mountain kind of treats. Big Bear Lake & City are lucky to have a shop like this magical slice of heaven.

Pros: * Poptart is delicious * Clean inside Cons: * Blueberry muffin was a bit dry. Im not sure if that texture is normal or if it had just been left out too long. We did show up closer to 4 or 5 pm. Extra: * Cashier was indifferent...not rude, but not friendly. * Small parking lot * When we came 3 years ago, my husband went alone and bought a ton of sweets to celebrate my Birthday. I only remember the poptart, so I think everything else was just okay. Good, but not memorable.

Dining room is small so expect a wait. We visited on a Sunday around 11am. We were told it was a…read more20 minute wait but ended up waiting 50 minutes. We're a larger group and there are only a couple of tables that could accommodate. There were a few outside tables that would work but they were being used by folks waiting to dine. Perhaps Lumberjack didn't have then manpower or it was too cold to service. I don't recall seeing patio heaters. It was sunny out and in the mid 40s. We dined towards the end of the rush. By the time food was dropped off, several tables were empty. Food is good. Price is high for some items though it isn't a surprise, being expensive to trucking up goods. My husband ordered a single buttermilk pancake and I had the Little Joe (one egg with two bacon strips and Logger potatoes (yum!)) plus a sourdough pancake. I'm a fan of the sourdough. My husband... not so much. He said it was good but prefers buttermilk. One friend ordered the breakfast burrito; said it was massive but cumbersome to hold requiring fork and knife. Another ordered the Complete Family Breakfast which is definitely a deal. It was a lot of food especially with the pancakes almost as big as the plate. Everyone at the table enjoyed their meals. The kids cleaned their plates. There are two single restrooms though it seemed like only one was available at the time. Parking lot holds maybe10 vehicles plus one handicap spot. Be careful exiting the lot if parked along Big Bear Blvd. There was an accident in front by where we parked. Not sure if there is parking on the side streets. We circled a bit waiting for cars to leave the parking lot.
