it was Christmas Eve afternoon and it’s absolutely pouring outside. We were looking for a nice spot to cozy up, and thanks to some good Google reviews, we found this lovely restaurant by Lake Arrowhead. The whole vibe was just perfect for a holiday afternoon. The server was super friendly and welcoming. My husband got their warm whiskey drink (which he loved), and I had a rum that was pretty tasty—though I’d ask for a bit less maple syrup next time. The food was awesome, especially the chicken wings and sandwiches, and the view of the lake just made it all feel extra special. So yeah, a perfect little Christmas Eve find!

Relaxed sports bar with a patio offering great views over the lake. Typical sports bar atmosphere but quite kid friendly. Food is as expected – the cheese curds are awesome when paired with their homemade BBQ sauce.

First I’d like to say that our server Jake really made our experience eating at the Lakefront that much better. My husband and I went to lake arrowhead for the day and stopped at this restaurant. First time eating here and Jake was so friendly and took time to explain recommendations and drink options. Jake recommended the PBO Burger and it DID NOT disappoint- it was amazingg, we definitely would order that again!! I ordered the chicken sandwich tossed in buffalo sauce and that was good too! My husband was also really excited over Pliny the Elder (which they have a few times out of the year). Anyway, as chilly as it was outside (heat lamps would’ve been nice to have) we still enjoyed our meal and time at the village. I’d definitely recommend eating at the lakefront tap room! We’ll forsure come back!

Ordered the fish & chips. The chips were really good. The burger was delicious. Good service worth the visit and seating near a window for lake view. Didn’t have to wait to be seated. Good service.

We just came in from San Diego and had a great experience here. Jake was one of the most friendly people we’ve met and he gave us great recommendations on what to order and what to great, if you can ask for Jake – do it, he’s amazing. If you’re a beer guy, you’ll be in heaven here. The tap list is all available via Untapped and they’ve got Pliny the Elder, even the DDH ones. Full cocktail menu as well and the food was great, we just got the wings but they have a “hotter than hell” sauce and it was perfectly spicy for me. Super impressed with this place especially the views of the lake. Can’t wait to go back tonight!

We were in the neighborhood for a tattoo appointment, and this place came recommended as having one of *the* best bbq bacon cheeseburgers. And it was superb. It was a great balance between meaty burger, tangy, sweet, and the bacon was real bacon. Just everything you’d hope it to be. In terms of appetizers, be warned. They are very generously portioned. We ordered the Irish Nachos and the Cheese Curds. Both fantastic options. We also ordered the Wedge salad and the Italian Beef Hoagie. The wedge salad was a mountain, with a bountiful assortment of toppings. The Italian Beef Hoagie was great. It was very salty (not really my thing), but the seasonings and toppings on the sandwich were spot on. The flavor was amazing overall, just a tad too salty for my preference. The service was friendly and quick, and when we asked for recommendations, we got honest thoughts. The ambiance is lakefront, so the view is expansive. Definitely on the list to revisit and try other items.

Solid place for pub food with a pretty wide menu and good service. Decent views of the lake Goodyear selection as well. In the village. So if it’s a big weekend it’s going to be crowded. If not it’s pretty chill. They have music sometimes. Everyone’s always been very friendly. Outdoor patio is also really great.

My wife and I stopped by for breakfast after a morning hike and ordered the Vegan Street Tacos and the Veggie Sando with fries.
Everything was delicious — I left full and ready for a boat ride and another hike! Both dishes were great, but I personally liked the tacos more.
Big shoutout for the dog menu and how dog-friendly the place is — much appreciated.
The staff were lovely girls who clearly know what they’re doing. I happily left a tip.

I visited the Lakefront Tap Room Bar and Kitchen with someone, and it turned out to be one of the most relaxing and scenic places I have been to in a long time. The atmosphere felt really calm and refreshing, especially with the lake right next to the patio. I saw a lot of teenagers there enjoying the view and taking pictures of the water, and it made the whole place feel lively in a peaceful way. The service was friendly and patient, which made it easy to enjoy the moment without feeling rushed. The value was great because the portions were big and the prices felt fair for such a beautiful lakeside setting. The quality of the food was solid, especially the burgers and fries, and everything tasted fresh. The selection had a nice variety of meals and snacks that teenagers would enjoy, especially if they like sharing plates and trying different things. I only visited this place one time before writing this review, but I really appreciated how easy it was to relax and enjoy myself there. Teenagers would love this place because it gives them a chance to take pictures, enjoy the lake, and feel creative in a calm and playful environment. I highly recommend that teenagers visit this location because it gives them a fun and peaceful place to hang out.
