An outstanding burger and good standard pub fare make this a popular hangout. Famous Bloody Mary's make it a popular hangover. Rustic atmosphere, with a great patio bar in Summer. If you want plain old American food, you won't go wrong. more

Excellent for Burgers, French Dips, Salads, etc. Yummy pulled pork sandwich. Semi-rustic atmosphere. None off that fancy expensive wine stuff here! This is great food, friendly, and nice ambiance. Dinner service til 10 or 11... nice touch. more

We are from the Bay Area and brought our son's new in-laws to Tahoe City. They are from Kansas and had never been to Tahoe before. They were enthralled with the scenery, the lake, the views, the mountains and trees and especially lunch at the Bridgetender Tavern and Grill. It was their favorite meal of the trip.

The Bridgetender used to be located next to the "fanny bridge". It was built around a few old trees and had the vintage Tahoe ambience. Live plants snaked around the ceiling. We frequently brought out of town visitors to the BT. During the winter, it was cozy. Summers on the deck were great.Children could feed fish or just look out... more
