Established in 1995, Café Cruz has been a favorite dining place for area residents and out-of-towners for 21 years.  Its atmosphere, menu selections and friendly staff are an ideal combination for enjoying a casual meal or celebrating a special occasion.

The restaurant offers something extra for every event.  The interior décor was designed to offer an open, festive and casual atmosphere.  Guests appreciate white tablecloth service in the spacious dining room. A classic French made Rotisol rotisserie is in full view featuring natural meats and poultry. Chefs can be seen working their magic in the open copper-backed kitchen. The murals depicting local scenes are the work of local artist Terry Wells. 

Visitors enjoy cocktails and appetizers in our bar featuring a distinctive  adobe-style fireplace (the creation of artist/contractor Shan Gilmore).  The bartop itself is hewn from a solid piece of California fir, tracing its history back to the old Bass Lake Hotel at the turn of the 20th century.

For those who prefer open air dining, Cafe Cruz's heated patio is just the thing.  The focal point of the patio is the beautiful Tuscan fireplace, surrounded by greenery and flowers.  Our cozy fire-table is a fun place to gather for cocktails.  For banquets and other special occasions, the lush garden room with its distinctive waterfall fountain is an ideal choice.
