As we travel to Shingletown to show clients property or to visit clients, we love to stop at the Ponderosa Pines Bar and Grill. They make the best “Garden Burgers” on the planet. I once asked the owner, how long the restaurant had been here and he replied “Forever, as far back as he could remember”.
It is right at the tree line and snow line and only 20 minutes from Redding. Ready for a Sunday drive, it is the perfect place going or coming from the "Tall Trees". You will enjoy!
It is one of those tucked away places that time seems to have left alone and the result is nice. It is very quaint and the food is good. We stopped in last night around 4:00 PM, ready and prepared for our usual Garden Burgers and they were packed. It was the Friday night dinner crowd. Most tables were reserved and they were working hard to fit everyone in who was arriving without reservations.
I was impressed. The dinner menu looked good with a nice variety of dishes. The staff were all spruced up and eager and happy. Generally, we were aware of a good feeling of welcome….glad you are here. We highly recommend a visit on your next trip to Shingletown. Everyone needs to visit a “forever place”.
I asked for an email address....but alas....they don't do email. I kinda like that! Must be part of the charm!
