⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Alexandra Silva
We came right after the event King of the Hammers, it's super busy, but they gave us a heads up any food would take 20 minutes. I understand because it was full to the brim with people inside and outside seating. Love that they had live music going on. Outside allows dogs. General menu is burgers, barbecue, and sandwiches. Price range $15 average a meal. They had lots of nonalcoholic beverages: smoothie, coffee, and soda with flavored syrups to add. What's unique is that you can put your stickers anywhere on the interior. They have it on the door frames, walls, even the trash. Keep in mind this is the version of rush-hour that I arrived. I've been here before, but it was so slow and quiet. I regret that I forgot to take any photographs or leave a review at the time. You have been a five star experience then too, but without the other customers, my food arrived much faster. Anyway, I loved eating my turkey club and drinking my salted caramel whip. Come over!

Stopped in for lunch at Cafe 247 and had a great experience. The pulled pork sandwich was delicious, paired perfectly with an ice-cold beer—exactly what I needed. Got to hang out with Wifi the dog, which instantly made the visit even better 🐾 I also met Kathy, the owner, and she is such a genuinely kind and welcoming person. You can really feel the heart behind this place. Great food, relaxed atmosphere, friendly faces—Cafe 247 is definitely worth the stop. I’ll be back for sure.

Such a wonderful little spot! The service at Coffee 247 is incredibly warm and friendly, and the coffee itself is absolutely delicious. It’s one of those places that feels special the moment you walk in — simple, welcoming, and full of good energy. We chose this route driving from Joshua Tree National Park to San Francisco, and stopping here was definitely the right decision. The view along the way is beautiful, and this café made the drive even more worth it. If you’re passing through, this place is a must-visit. Beautiful drive, great coffee, totally worth the stop.

For us a must stop between Coachella Valley and Las Vegas Vegas. Amazing pulled pork sandwich. French fries fresh cooking with taste like a quality oil. Delicious barbecued sausage. Not delivered quick like fast food, but delivered with quality and that personal touch. It is rare. Huge menu written on the walls. The atmosphere is charming and very retro. I’m not sure when they have entertainment but on our first visit - a Saturday - they had an outdoor band. Very retro imaginative decor in doors and out. Highly recommended.

This must be one of those hidden gems in the desert, which we have passed by many times on our way to Big Bear Lake, but not anymore. On our latest trip to the lake from Las Vegas, we stopped here to have lunch, and we are so glad we did. What a truly unique place, with both indoor and outdoor dining areas as well as several stages, which we were told is for live entertainment on the weekends. From the moment you step out of your vehicle, you will be amazed at what you see, and once inside the restaurant area, the walls and ceiling will draw your attention to all the old and new license plates from around the world combined with all the unique stickers and highway signs. As for the food, it was out of this world, and not what we would have expected from a place out in the middle of the desert. The staff members were amazing, with a special thank you sent out to Natalie, who was so friendly and cheerful and made us feel like family. All we know that in the future, we will always be stopping at this location on every trip we make to Big Bear Lake.

This place is a little oasis in the desert that serves great bbq and has plenty of ice cold beer . The live music played by the talented bands makes it a unique experience. It’s like being in a movie scene .
