Some really great pizza in a great setting! I recommend to anyone who is in the area!
PRO TIP: There is always a long wait here. Anticipate 45min-60min on a regular weekend, longer than that on a holiday. DO NOT ARRIVE HUNGRY.

Shopping & Dining
Lake Arrowhead Village aka ‘The Village’ has shopping, restaurants, activities for the kiddos, music in the summer and a grocery store on the upper level.
Fancy folks - lower your shopping expectations. It’s still fun to shop up here but it’s not a Westfield mall.
This outdoor multi level village does really have something for everyone. Grab souvenirs at Big on Bears, grab a beer at The Taproom, breakfast at Belgian Waffle House, or book a boat ride.

There are only a few grocery stores ‘on the mountain’ and this is the largest and least expensive.

This Jensen’s is the closest to Owl’s Leap but it also is more expensive than typical grocery stores. Because of its close location you are paying for convenience.
Despite being smaller it has various stock and you should find what you need here.

Respect the locals
Lake Arrowhead is a wonderful mountain community that is a great escape from the city. You have probably come up to slow down a bit and enjoy a different pace. Please try to be understanding when things take longer than you are used to. Because this is a tourist destination the weekends here look very different compared to Monday-Friday when things are much slower - be patient with locals who feel like their quaint little town is being run over by city-folks.
