Originally, I wanted pizza, but I'm glad I stumbled upon this place. The service here is very friendly and down-to-earth, which is really helpful since I don't get a chance to relax and eat much. The staff is very attentive, and the food was delicious;...Read More

A long time favorite in Julian! They offer a good selection of entrees and just recently started offering breakfast. The pot pie was delicious! While it isn't the prettiest presentation, it has so much flavor! The crust was flaky and they use a brown gravy inside. There...Read More

The coffee boasted a robust flavor, free from any dilution. The waffles were fried and were good when paired with syrup and apples! Staff was professional and upfront with wait time.

The Buffalo Burger and the Bum Chicken Sandwich were amazing, along with the BLT. They serve generous portions, too. The wait line wasn't an hour and a half like everywhere else, and the service was great. They serve pepsi, which is AWESOME.

We went on Nov. 6, 2022. Julian is a madhouse on the weekend, the main drag completely packed. Rongbranch is a little back from the street, so it was only comfortably full. The server was nice, the portions ENORMOUS (made two meals per meal), and best...Read More
