“ Adorable spot with great atmosphere! There’s a little market with grocery items and gifts, a small cafe, and a beautiful garden. They also sell oysters in the shell. They do serve alcohol here and several people were sitting and pleasantly chatting and enjoying their wine. There’s lots of parking for oversized vehicles as well. Overall, a great spot to stop on your travels up or down highway 101. ”
“ As we passed, we said that the place looked fun, we turned the car around and discovered a very fine place to get a bite to eat and enjoy the gardens with many tables to eat at. We enjoyed sandwiches and mimosa as we sat in a sunny and colorful garden. The shop has many fine items. Plus Sacks! ”
“ What a great find. My sister lives in Manzanita and loves this place. Service was phenomenal. Their stove was down so we could order cold sandwiches. They were also able to get is the artichoke dip. Patio is suitable for dogs. Definitely stop ”
“ I had my bridal shower hosted by Amanda at Bear Creek Artichokes. The experience was 10/10. Their outside seating and garden area made for the perfect little garden party. The food was very good, very well priced for a group rate and was made and set out tastefully. It was extremely clear that Amanda genuinely cared about my personal experience as well as the group and wanted everything to be perfect. In fact, our experience felt entirely like her top priority. Her kindness and thought and effort will be the reason I recommend Bear Creek to anyone looking for a small gathering venue, a nice place to eat, or anything of the sort. We all felt extremely welcomed and I feel very privileged to have had the experience I did for my bridal shower thanks to Bear Creek Artichokes and of course to Amanda. ”
“ We love this place!!! The grounds are stunning and the owner makes our family feel so welcome every time we come in. The food is amazing and it's great to be able to walk around their beautiful gardens while you wait. Their espresso drinks, grilled sandwiches, artichoke dip and pizza are all done so well. They also have a great selection of gourmet drinks, pasta, sauces, hot sauce, etc. ”
“ Mimosas, oysters, gardens. This place is a must stop for roadside scenery! The gardens alone are lovely, and the owner was so sweet and helped us get settled with a fantastic lunch. It was a wonderful experience for my mom and I. ”
“ WOWOW!! TEN STARS WOULD NOT BE ENOUGH FOR BEAR CREEK! I am in LOVEEE! Definitely worth the drive!! Hands down the best food, fresh, flavorful...YUM!! ”
“ This place has it all and is a total gem. Sandwiches, soups, pizza, fresh oysters, and more. Once you're full of delicious food, take a stroll through their shop or walk the grounds outside for some fresh air. While they don't serve oysters on the half shell, they did allow me purchase and shuck my own oysters which just enhanced our experience. The freshness of the oysters are worth the shuck! ”
