I had the pleasure of visiting this lovely place recently, and it truly has a unique and charming character of its own. Conveniently located just after the exit from the 92 freeway, it immediately caught my attention.

It’s definitely worth trying if you like mushrooms! We shared a mushroom sandwich and the soup of the day that also had mushrooms. Both were delicious. I would toast the bread more. But other than that everything was really good and they prepare the food really quickly. Note that you’ll eat at a parking lot and depending on the weather, this might not be very comfortable. Just think about it as fast food, but with way better quality of ingredients.

The beef burger they served was absolutely top-notch. It was seriously juicy and tender, like it could melt in your mouth. We couldn’t get enough of it!

Really fun place! Great sandwiches. They put an entire huge mushroom in it, which is very unique. Potato chips were sold out by the time I reached, but I’ve heard they are awesome too!

Unassuming, quaint and charming diner with gourmet level food that will have you wanting more. We had a burger, salad and one of the best cookies I’ve had – ever. Reasonably priced and delicious at a cute venue – I left very full. I can’t wait to go back.

Hands down the BEST food tradition my boyfriend and I have every week! We live in the city (and prior to that, South Bay) and had started this tradition of driving to Half Moon Bay solely for their mushroom sandwich, chips and anything else they had that day that piqued our interest (we’re veggie eaters)! Even after the first time we tried it, we were HOOKED. Their ingredients are always the freshest tasting, they’re generous with adding them in their items (e.g. their mushrooms in the sandwiches are literally chunks), and they interact like a casual, family-owned “picnic” vibe group rather than simply a food business. One week without their food and I am craving it 2x the next, highly recommend to those who can easily try their food, and ESPECIALLY to those who are coming from farther away – the best MUST TRY place in all of the Bay Area (in my opinion)!

Was really impressed with the herb salad and carrot curry soup! Was looking for a light lunch and both packed a punch. The soup was full of flavor and the salad was a unique mix of herbs with a light dressing. Can’t wait to go back. The restaurant has some seating, but it’s not well insulated, so we opted to take it to go and eat at home.

You stand in line wondering what the sandwich is going to taste like, thinking when’s the last time I even saw a Caboose? When were the last used on trains? Well, they aren’t used on trains anymore. They are used as a vessel for serving up delicious mushroom and burger sandwich. The line moves pretty quick
