We ordered the Muffaletta Sandwich, which was very tasty. We also got a croissant and oatmeal cookie. Both were giant, fresh and delicious. They do not serve espressos but their coffee is very good. They do have cream and a couple of different Torani syrups if you would like some flavoring. We will definitely make this a regular stop as we pass through Independence monthly on our way back and forth to Bridgeport. There is street parking, some tables inside and out and restrooms inside the restaurant behind the counter. I will update this review when we have their breads, pies and other sandwiches. In the mean time, do yourself a favor and stop in for a visit soon!

My friend ordered a panini and my boyfriend ordered the eggs on avocado and the waffle with sausage and eggs. They both really enjoyed their food. Everything is light and tastes fresh. They have jazz playing which adds to the trendiness of the place. We'll probably be back up during the snowboarding season. Definitely worth the stop if you're in the area

The staff was so informative and friendly, I got a triple espresso iced latte, my husband got a cappuccino and they were both made to perfection. We paired our drinks with their house bacon burrito and lemon ricotta pancakes. I honestly haven't stopped thinking about those pancakes, they were so fluffy, had the right amount of lemon and just talking about it it's making me crave them all over again. We will stop by soon!

Why did we eat here? - Schats Roadhouse is located in Bishop, California. We were here to bike…read moreWhite Mountain, and visited legendary Erick Schat's Bakkerÿ. The bakery has so many different breads, cookies, pastries and more. The problem with the bakery is that there are no price tags. It was a no brainer to try his restaurant. Menu is fairly wide ranging - burgers to steak to salads and more. Limited options for vegetarians. The food was slightly above average and prices were reasonable. We didn't expect foodie quality eats here. You place an order at the counter and food is brought to you. Service was pretty much non existent. Food Review: Rotisserie Chicken Half ($17.95) is one of their signature dishes and comes with 2 large sides. We choose lime cilantro rice and black beans. The chicken was average, slightly overcooked and included a tortilla and pico pico. 7.5/10 Broccoli Side ($1.95) was huge portion of perfectly healthy broccoli. 9/10 Garden Salad ($10.95) is pretty average but of large size. 7.5/10 Overall - Good Food - Good Decor - Good Service - Good Value - Excellent Would we return? - Maybe

Crearee has no business of existing in Bishop, but yet it does…read more The interior of Crearee is ultra modern. Half of the space functions as a market selling fresh produce, snacks, and essentials. The other half is a fast casual set up where you order at the counter and they bring your food to you. We ordered: -bean and cheese burrito ($11) -2 asada tacos ($3.75 each): topped with onions and cilantro That bean and cheese burrito with the spicy red salsa slapped. I felt like the ratio was a little bean heavy, but I didn't mind because the beans had plenty of flavor. The carne asada tacos were quite good as well. The meat had a nice char and the tacos are generously heaped with carne. I think the most surprising element of Crearee is their outdoor dining space. The restaurant is located off the road parallel to the main drag in Bishop. The patio area has plenty of seating with ambient music playing in the background. It's a relaxing pit stop before you head off into the wilderness. Crearee is worth a stop whether you're in need of a meal meal or just a snack.

It's a really unique grocery store and Mexican restaurant concept, and everything was extremely well organized and hygienic. I was especially impressed by the quality of the food and how clean and fresh everything was prepared. Not something you'd necessarily expect to find in the middle of a road trip on the way to Tahoe! They have a beautiful patio and a really nice interior, making it a great stop for a quick, authentic Mexican lunch or even just to grab snacks and drinks. They also have fun Mexican goodies like horchata and spicy drinks. Highly recommend the bowls, quesadillas, and burritos. Such a great road trip find!

Now, we know why! Everything we ordered was made soooo bad. And, it took soooo long. My power wrap had so much spinach in it, and barely any of the other veggies. Also, the hummus was a thin layer of (picture a thin layer of mustard amount) and not a nice remotely visible or generous layer of hummus! My husband's veggie sandwich was also all spinach, with one thin slice of red onion, and one teaspoon of avocado slice. Pathetic. I wish I was kidding. Our smoothies were full of the frozen fruit, and sparing on the good ingredients (dates, chia, hemp). Basically, they are overloading on the cheaper bulk items, and stingy on the good ingredients. We spent $50 and tipped 20% ...on awful food. The young woman working clearly lacked any care for her job. Sadly, though, the last time I came here I had a different employee but same results. Suffice to say we will not be back again.
