Drinks & Nightlife

Ed's a Twain Harte staple. This is your classic dive bar. Depending on the night, you may walk in to a group of locals or a really fun wild day or night. Open all year round it hosts your stiff, cheap drinks, smoking allowed inside, and an eclectic group of folks; from locals, bikers, tourists looking for local flavor. You never know, you may end up dancing on the bar, literally! Enter at your own risk, but it can be one fun time. If you're here for any local events or during the summer for the free concerts in Eproson Park, you're probably going to end up dancing on the bar.

Food Scene

Open for lunch & dinner. The main restaurant offers a quaint mountain ambiance. Menu ranges from appetizers, salads, pasta, seafood, steak & baked potato + Nightly Specials. The staff have been there forever. You will not be rushed, so sit back and enjoy a nice mountain dining experience. The full bar is adjacent and attached to the main restaurant. On most nights you'll find locals at the bar, tourists looking for fun with local bands and DJ's on the weekends. During the spring, summer and early autumn outdoor seating is available around the fire pit out back off the bar. It's really a fun place to hang out and enjoy music from the juke box, or music from our local musicians.

Our newest restaurant in Twain Harte on a great iconic Twain Harte corner (across the street from Ed's!), perfect for outdoor dining during permitting weather anytime of the year. Serving wine & beer & a very diverse menu that changes with the seasons and local produce/flavors. The ambiance is a bit more chic and contemporary. The owners are a great couple who work very hard to accommodate many palettes. We love their wine list! Ask for vegetarian/vegan options - they'll work magic to create a great dish for you!

My favorite breakfast/brunch spot on the mountain. Alicia and her crew will not disappoint. All of their goodies are prepared fresh daily right on site. Her cinnamon rolls & sticky buns are the yummiest I've tried since my grandmother's. Melt in your mouth. However, all of her food, from breakfast burritos, eggs benedict, sandwiches, fruit bowls, SMOOTHIES, and fresh coffee drinks are delish! You may need to share a table with other folks, and wait in a line, but it is worth it! I never miss a morning at Alicia's when my family and friends are visiting. You can even call in the day before to place your bakery order so you aren't showing up when all is sold out.

Old school steakhouse. Known for their fondue and bread while you wait for your main course, this spot has been in Sonora for decades. Full bar, and of course their steaks are what bring in the crowds.

What can I say other than the Steamed Donkey is an iconic Pinecrest Lake restaurant. During the summer the back outdoor bar area is hopping with summer lake-goers. This place has always provided a fun time in the small bar where you can talk to everyone around you. The small dining room requires reservations, and is known for their lamb & steak.

My favorite lunch spot in Sonora. Their garlic bread is outstanding - be sure to order two servings up front. Salads, pasta, and other specials to choose from. Great place in old town Sonora on Washington St. amidst antique & boutique shops. I think you'll really enjoy your lunch!

I love Pinecrest Lake ~ Rent motor boats, Pontoon Boats! (Jr. Size or Sr. Size), kayaks, paddle boats, or, just relax on the beach, fish off the rocks, hike the entire lake, and people watch! It's a fabulous and gorgeous spot off of HWY 108 for the whole family! The Steamed Donkey Restaurant is a great place to grab some drinks during the summer while enjoying their back outdoor patio, or for dinner (be sure to make reservations, it's small and gets crowded fast). You will not be disappointed once you drive down into this pristine lake community!

This is a stunning, remote lake that is a lovely drive up HWY 108 past Strawberry. You must bring your own boat or watercraft if you wish to be on the water; however, there is a boat launch site. Bring a picnic and sit on the beach, or hike the dam. Gorgeous views and the freshest air. Great place to spend the day. Be sure to check road conditions, if we've had a bad winter the roads may be closed into the summer. We can probably get you the correct info.

Go back in time to the old west and experience the gold country back when Mark Twain visited and fell in love. Pan for gold, hit the saloon for root beer and fries, horse and buggy carriage rides, and a candy store to delight children of all ages!
