Local Landmark

Built in 1947, and originally named the Sportsman’s Tavern, Captains Anchorage is a true Old West experience, serving up an exceptional steakhouse and seafood menu. Opened by Hollywood character actor Andy Devine, the restaurant and bar quickly became a gathering place for celebrities, locals, and visitors alike. To this day you’ll find the warm welcome remains, and don’t be surprised if the bartender remembers your favorite drink after one visit. There’s even a friendly ghost named George, who worked as the tavern’s accountant during the backroom gambling days. If you’re lucky, you might just run into him. Private event space available.

Nottinghams Tavern

This gem of a restaurant is tucked behind Robinhood Resort. Nottinghams Tavern is known for its great food and cozy atmosphere, from the dining room and pub to the upstairs tavern and lovely outdoor patio. The menu has something for everyone (the Notti burger is a favorite), and the pub and tavern have a full bar with craft beers on tap and classic cocktails. Curious antiques, like an ornate bar in the pub, add to the historic ambience. In the summer months, grab a table on the shaded patio (well-behaved pets welcome!) and listen to live music.

Coming Soon

Hotel lovers have a few new places to check into thanks to some fresh reimaginings and new additions to the lodging lineup. Formerly Thundercloud Lodge, Sierra Blue Suites modernized and revamped all of its guest rooms. After a major renovation to the original 1960s-era Viking-themed lakefront lodge, Marina Riviera has been transformed into a boutique hotel that will soon have refreshed outdoor amenities and a bar and restaurant. A trio of local friends joined forces to breathe new life into Wolf Creek Hotel & Resort with an emphasis on art and wellness. Beyond renovating the guest rooms, new amenities in development include a yoga dome, steam and sauna facilities, and a spa grotto. The brand new Hampton Inn/Home2 Suites will offer 128 rooms when it opens at 41820 Big Bear Boulevard.
