Food is delicious and the service is outstanding I would recommend biscuits and gravy, they are home made everyday

I visit Tracie's at least twice a week. The meals keep getting better and better. Morgan and Annie are attentive and efficient. It's a fantastic country cafe. read more

Wonderful staff and service, it was Mother's day so menu selection was limited? Highly recommended the apple turnovers, especially warmed. I had ordered chicken fried steak for breakfast and it was my first ever trying so... it may not be my fave dish as I didn't realize it came covered in white gravy,however many people do enjoy this. If you like biscuits and gravy with more protein then you might enjoy it! The coffee was good, not and other menu options looked great also. It is a very welcoming atmosphere. read more

Weird little place we came here because we were staying upstairs, we were all excited to start our day and asked the server what she thought about the country fried steak and eggs, she replied I don't care for the food, but others say it's good??? So odd, it seemed to be frozen out of the package fair, I had a pancake that was light and fluffy, the best part was the honey whipped butter on the toast and pancakes. With our discount for staying it was good. I wouldn't go again tho, very limited menu no Bene that we saw in photos. All the staff seem pretty cliquey and not accommodating to guests. read more

Worst breakfast I've maybe ever had. Totally unbaked scone, raw eggs, raw limp white hash browns, floppy bacon. Yuck.

We have eaten there many times when staying in McCloud. Great food, great service and friendly staff. Going back next week to enjoy.

First time there today. It was recommended by my son, whom has visited it over the years, with his in-laws and family. What a wonder cafe, with a wonderful staff and great food. Excellent service, in a very clean and comfortable setting. Great history to the community and surrounding environment. Hope to visit again and try their breakfast, as this trip was for lunch! Thanks so much! read more

McCloud, California? Where's that??? Just over the hill from Mt Shasta Ca is one of the most quaint and bucolic little villages in the whole state. Take a walk around the tiny town and you will agree, but make sure you stop in for some of the best cooking on the planet at the White Mountain Cafe. Tracy, the new owner and chef, is a perfectionist to a fault and it shows in the restaurants homey ambience and the fantastically prepared food she delivers! You leave full and satisfied saying to yourself "that's exactly the way I like it cooked"! The grilled turkey, bacon and cheese was sublime, the crispy fries, the homemade apple pie...yummmmmm! She does happen to be a genius with her pastries, as well. The entire staff is friendly, helpful, and professional and Tracy will always offer up a wry smile and a complimentary hug. If you're passing by, don't miss out on this 5+ Star experience! Jim gives it an enthusiastic thumbs up Cheers read more

After enjoying the McCloud waterfalls, we decided to check out the town of McCloud before heading on to Mount Shasta city. Our stomachs informed us they had other plans - i.e. lunch - and soon! And that's how we ended up at the White Mountain Café. Some places you come in and just feel comfortable right away, that was the case here. We could tell right away that this place was well run and cared for: perfectly clean with a friendly, welcoming atmosphere. A bit of a unique look to it too; we found out later it had been converted from its original pharmacy origins. Customers were a nice mix of locals and tourists. We had some true comfort food for lunch: a tuna melt for my wife and the 'Ol Trusty BLT for me, with a side of fries. Both our sandwiches were delicious, mine with lots of bacon, and the fries were super. Our server was friendly and attentive. We thoroughly enjoyed our lunch. Small towns may be one of the few places with their own unique character, too small to interest the chains that can cast a blanket of sameness over an area. Fortunately, if you're willing to go to little out of your way, towns like McCloud exist, and in them places like the White Mountain Cafe. read more

we often eat here, but this is our first visit after the new change in the owner. We arrived 90 minutes after they had opened. No customers. We thought they were closed. There were two elderly people who said they were the new owners AND, they only accept cash. Who. even carries cash today. NO ONE. Thus, an empty cafe. We left and will not return. I wished I could review the food and service. read more

Wow the cafe has expanded their menu to include omelets and offers a 2 egg omelet as well as the traditional 3 egg. My husband had the stuffed hash browns with a biscuit that was wonderful. Their hollandaise was thick, creamy with a wonderful hint of lemon. They've got anything you could want from burritos, to chicken fried steak. They will even make you a breakfast sandwich if you ask! This is a veteran owned business so I love supporting them! Come up to McCloud and enjoy our town and this wonderful cafe. read more

The service here is wonderful, couldn't have a nicer group of folks working for them. The inside is a charming old soda fountain turned into a little country diner. The only thing was my husband and I were a little bummed that we got there maybe 10 minutes after 11am and were unable to get breakfast and their lunch menu pretty much consists only of grilled cheese and burgers. The burger was just ok. read more

We just had an amazing breakfast at White Mountain Cafe in McCloud. Service was excellent and the food was delicious. We had the chicken fried steak and Denver omelette. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. We will be back read more

While we were in the area, we decided to check out this charming little cafe. It has a cozy atmosphere and the staff are genuinely friendly. We went with the sausage skillet and the chicken fried steak with gravy and biscuits. Both dishes were flavorful and satisfying. A great spot for a comforting meal! read more

New Owners! Very good, I think of myself as a sort of Biscuit and Gravy Connoisseur (Ha) and treat myself here at least once a week! Apple turnovers are something you don't want to pass on... read more

After a long hike, this is the perfect place to grab some burgers, sandwiches, and fries to fuel up. I cannot recommend the Carnitas Cubano more, the pork carnitas was so incredibly tender. Plus, their mimosas were only $6-7! Service was a little slow, but there was a festival in town so the long wait times made sense. I will 100% come back here again next time I'm in town. read more

Limited menu but good food. New owner so menu has changed compared to what you see online

New owner much better service and food. Good prices . Very friendly staff, had a great time.

We arrived just as they opened. One person served everyone in the cafe, and she did so excellently! 5/5 - Biscuits and Gravy: Perfect 5/5 - Pork Belly Hash and Eggs: OMG... best potatos. So crispy and amazing seasoning. I will come back to McCloud for this breakfast! 5/5 - Maple Cakes: Candied pecans, 100% pure Vermont maple butter and maple cream with house made sausage. Awesome. 4/5 - Old Fashioned Breakfast: House made sausage and perfectly crisped hash browns 4/5 - Waffle + Bacon: really good read more

Food was decent! They do not have many options, but it is a small shop in a small town. I wanted to try the breakfast, but if you come after 11 you cannot order breakfast. I ended up getting tomato soup and my blt sandwich and both was really good. Bacon is high quality and soup was good. Not sure if it is the owner that is always working the the server/ host/ busser does everything in the front, so seems to be short with customers and only helps if you ask. Overall, was not the best place around, but works if you want breakfast in the morning or lunch. Seating is limited as well. read more

Wow! The biscuits and gravely was amazing and enough for two! The breakfast burrito was equally as tasty and was HUGE! The wait is long but the ambience is great for this small town cafe. We will be back in December! read more

Nicole asked to see my service animal's registration and then told us to leave when we politely informed her that she was breaching the law. She had no interest being educated. Under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), businesses and organizations that serve the public must allow people with disabilities to bring their service animals into all areas of the facility where customers are normally allowed to go. This federal law applies to all businesses open to the public, including restaurants, hotels, taxis and shuttles, grocery and department stores, hospitals and medical offices, theaters, health clubs, parks, and zoos. Businesses can only ask the following two questions: Is this dog required because of a disability? What task or work has the dog trained to do? Suppose a business asks the person any other questions about their disability or the dog. In that case, the business may face legal ramifications that can include a fine of up to $2,500. I will report her to the state and the sheriffs department. This appalling treatment and lack of legal knowledge is shocking. read more

Great place for breakfast before skiing at Mount Shasta Ski Park or exploring the falls. McCloud is definitely a hidden gem. They serve breakfast and lunch everyday except on Wednesday's when they are closed. Just good comfort food at a great price and service with a smile. McCloud is a great place to come and check out the mercantile or the old lumber mill or the waterfalls of McCloud, you will not regret the drive or the scenery. read more

Fantastic diner/cafe! I had the pancake breakfast- two pancakes, 2 eggs and 2 homemade sausages for $9.99. The pancakes were fluffy and delicious! They are served with two syrups, maple and raspberry. A big slab of butter was melting all of the pancakes when my plate was served, what could be better? My Mom had biscuits and gravy. The gravy and biscuits were delicious. It was a huge portion too! My Dad had the breakfast burrito and enjoyed it. The burrito was huge and served with a side of their homemade salsa/sauce. It's the same sauce they serve with their huevos rancheros. Cute, homey atmosphere with a hometown feel. I will be back! I want to try the huevos rancheros and the eggs Benny next. read more

Loved the food and the staff. Berry waffles were amazing, fresh n yum. Hubby had the breakfast burrito, loved it. Staff is sweet and down to earth. Smaller place, so it fills up quick during busy hours. Worth it, we'll be back. read more

This place was a favorite among the group of 6 that I was with. We were in McCloud for a wedding and stopped here to eat lunch. We were all beyond satisfied with our meals! A few of us got the Korealina chicken sandwich and could not shut up about how delicious it was. If you're in the area, give this place a go! The staff were kind and attentive as well. As you can see from the photo, the food was so good, I forgot to get a photo of it before I dug right in. read more

McCloud is one of the best-kept secrets in California. This quaint and picturesque town located within view of Mount Shasta is like something you find in a book, TV show or movie. The best thing is that it isn't pretentiously so. This is historic small-town California at its best. Each time we visit the area, we stop by White Mountain Cafe. Located on the northernmost end of the family-owned White Mountain Mercantile (a single building with multiple shops and a hotel), you will be surprised at what you find. The restaurant in simple, eloquent cozy and, well, like something you'd find in a novel. The food here is good -- surprisingly good. We love the breakfast menu. The coffee is always great (and I always forget to ask what company they use). If you're in the area and looking for a spot off the beaten path, this place is a must-stop. I feel like I've been transported back to a much-simpler time where the people are friendly, the food is good and the location is breathtaking. read more

Food and service was great. Only complaint was owner/manager repeatedly berating cook and waitress. It was really uncalled for.

Best hamburger I have ever had! We came in about 10 minutes before they closed and they welcomed us and said it was no problem. Friendly staff and the mercantile building they are in is a trip down memory lane. This place and all of historic McCloud are a hidden treasure. read more

Breakfast with four adults and three kids. All of the food was delicious. Coffee and mimosas hit the spot too!

Food was amazing. The staff are so friendly they make you feel at home. And there is a wonderful place to stay just down a bit from the Cafe. read more

Lunch was way affordable. Hand-cut chicken tenders... same with the fries. Delicious club sandwich and BLT. Offer of watermelon on an extremely hot day. Even the salad dressing seemed homemade. Friendly owner, which isn't always the case for us tourists in small towns. We walked in close to closing without knowing it. They stayed open beyond closing to feed us. Also: nice art on walls and comfortable booths. read more
