Tunnel Creek Café

This is a favorite brunch of ours in the area where you can find really great indoor and outdoor seating. The outdoor seating during the summer is amazing and there’s decent seating indoors for the winter. It’s a pay first at the cashier and get your food brought to you place which is convenient and is fast. The food can be a bit inconsistent, but it’s overall good. Their drinks are amazing, I’ve never had a bad drink there! Super dog friendly, I recommend this spot for both small and big groups. All staff are very friendly.

We wanted to try Tunnel Creek Cafe for a quick breast prior to starting an adventurous day in the area. It didn't disappoint and we were in and out quickly. I had the ponderosa plate with chicken apple sausage. Staff was friendly and knowledgeable about the area. It was a very friendly atmosphere and will dine here again when in the area.

What a gem. Stopped in for a breakfast sandwich on our tour around Lake Tahoe and loved the setting, decor, and food. Definitely worth the stop!

My rating is based off of my food. Ordered the breakfast burrito w/house bacon jam. Pictures look better than it taste! It was more of a dessert favor than breakfast. The overly sweet flavor of the bacon jam made the burrito barely edible. Every bite felt as if I was pouring sugar directly into my mouth.

This was the perfect spot to grab food after hiking or biking. I got the Rancher Salad but turned it into a wrap and added blue cheese. It was so tasty and VERY filling. We could have split it, but it was great. The line around 12:15 was out the door, it moved slow, but wasn’t awful. There are plenty of seats inside and outside. And once ordered the food came pretty quickly. There was a guy playing guitar and singing and there were a few cornhole boards, too.
