” “After a family-fun bike ride along the Truckee River, this was a great spot to stop and enjoy lunch on the patio. Sunny deck, delicious food and uber-friendly service. Couldn’t ask for much else.

Got a tip from a local biker to skip out on River Ranch (the patio was closed for a private event anyway) and come here for way less $$ which was just a driveway down outside of the Alpine Valley village. Glad we ran into her, she was right on.
For a tiny cafe, they have a great selection of paninis, wraps and salads. My BBQ ranch chicken wrap was awesome, and it came with chips and salsa vs. potato chips which was a nice variety. My dad’s cobb salad looked great, as well as the chili which was served with a crostini…nice gourmet touch. Even my little niece’s grilled cheese was something I would order – on thick panini bread and with sharp cheddar.

I would have insisted we stay longer and grab a pitcher of beer on the deck, although we needed to get the bikes back to town. Service was super-friendly (both the cashier and the cook in the back came out to say hey.) Will be back for the chicken wrap and that pitcher of beer next time around.”-Kelly P., Yelp

“Fuel: Stop by…for a muffin and a breakfast mimosa on Sundays; or come any day at lunchtime for an Italian Panini or Asian Wrap. Hit the Crest Café to the bottom of the Alpine Meadows Road for $1.50 PBR drafts all day, plus ski-bum-priced meatball sandwiches and pizza. You’ve earned it.”-Skiing Magazine

“I love stopping by here right before a snowboarding session at Alpine Meadows. The staff is friendly and they even would change the channel for you if you wanted to check out a game on their tv.

I always order the Bomb Sando (it’s like a BLT but they add an egg and instead of regular lettuce they use arugula, then the bread comes with a pesto cream cheese spread). It tastes even better if you sprinkle a little Tabasco on it. I haven’t tried anything else from their menu because I am so hooked on their Bomb Sando. It’s a great way to start a day on the slopes. I have to come back sometime in the future and check out their happy hour sushi. It sounds tasty by just reading the menu. I will update my review once I have tried their rolls.”-Shirlyanne A., Yelp
