Food scene

This is a local and visitor favorite! Enjoy breakfast, lunch, or dinner in a casual, relaxing atmosphere. Whether you choose to dine outside at the brightly colored picnic tables or in the historic interior, you are in for great food and a great time. Outside boasts the Tiki Bar, a small wading beach for kids, yard games, and even a pirate ship stage that kids love to play on. There are numerous concerts and events during the summer. Come visit us between Memorial Day and Labor Day, and you can visit PM Park without even having to drive anywhere. We are located right across the street!

You can’t miss the place lovingly referred to as “the cone” by locals. Bonus: it’s close enough to drive or have a short drive.

Part new age/holistic health shop, part tea shop, this a must stop for those looking to add a little bit of relaxation to their lives. We have recommended and gifted their tea to many. There is no going back! A favorite in our house is the apple cobbler tea and strawberry lemonade.

Any local will tell you, you have to try ice cream or even dinner at the Viking! They take cash only and typically have long lines, so be prepared. Once you see how huge and delicious treats like the chocolate chip cookie sundae are, you’ll forget all about the wait. Early afternoon tends to be a better time to visit to avoid crowds.

If you are on the Ventura side of the lake, and you need a quick snack or something to eat, stop in to the Ventura Mart. This is also the closest gas station to McIntosh. Many people visiting worry about running out of gas, having access to a bathroom, or needing a quick snack and Internet search results often overlook this little local gem. If you stop by during breakfast, I recommend the Nordic breakfast sandwich.
