Customer Reviews

"With a long road still ahead and hunger setting in before driving a fairly long stretch of mountain road, I searched on Google and found this place. In this quiet spot, I could also see the Chimney Tree and give my dogs some time to rest in the spacious outdoor area. As for the food, I would recommend the burgers made with local meat rather than the Fish & Chips."

"Located at the southernmost point of the Avenue of the Giants, this is a great spot to grab a bite to eat before, or after, you drive through the beautiful redwood trees. Friendly service."

"This place is pretty consistent only had a few times my fried food would be a little too cooked. Really enjoy the Ortega burger and you get to add your own fresh produce from an area on the counter. Great milk shakes. Wings aren't my favorite. It's nice to sit outside on the picnic tables when the weathers nice."

"First time here so always max food at 4. Very nice fresh Caesar salad w chicken Chicken freshly cooked, tender Iceberg lettuce and tartar sauce. Do not ridicule the tartar sauce.Its good! Great place for the kids. Next to the chimney tree. They have indoor and outdoor seats plus picnic tables. Just a couple of miles from 101, and shame on you if you don't skip the freeway and drive the original 101 and the Avenue of the Giants. Down the road may lurk a fruit stand with blackberry popsicles."

"Fun stop on the Avenue of Giants. Good burgers, great shakes, and a fun peek into the Chimney tree. Clean restrooms"

"Great location to have a meal and begin your journey to explore Avenue of giants. Three things to check out here: delicious food, map of what to find while you're on the avenue of giants route and the actual hollowed out chimney tree."

"We stopped here to eat while exploring in the Redwoods. I had the mushroom swiss burger and fried zucchini. I'm very picky with my burgers and this was cooked to perfection. The burger was cooked well done, but juicy. The mushrooms were just right."
