This is a great place to stop at on Highway 50 in South Lake Tahoe. I tried the sandwiches from the deli. They were quite good. They also have really good ice cream, and they will make any ice cream into a milkshake. I tried...Read More

A little gem of a place in South Lake Tahoe. The sandwiches are creative and delicious. You could have a cost saving lunch every day and not eat the same thing! The ice cream is off the hook and they are open late for ice...Read More

Great sandwiches and wraps that give you a home made feel. Service was super friendly and they let us know right off the bat how much time we were looking at to get our food. Nice cozy seating inside but was a bit warm. Few...Read More

So much love in this sandwich. I believe it was called the Backcountry. Just look at it! It was hearty yet so refreshing. The fig jam with the roast beef is a power play. Bagel was nice and soft. …

This is such a cute sandwich/icecream shop! I loved the fact that they had build your own sandwich which was super helpful for me as a vegetarian because otherwise you would usually find only one vegetarian/vegan on whole menu. The place has a cute vibe with...Read More
