Lassen Mineral Lodge

Wow. Completely blown away. Not going to lie, came here not expecting much. That added to the experience. The first thing you will notice is how friendly the employees are. You are greeted at the door with a smile and told to take a seat wherever you like. The meals speak for themselves. True small town American cooking and it tastes as good as it seems. I would highly recommend anyone stopping by the area to come in and have a meal at this gem tucked away in Northern California.

Amazing stay. Room was cozy and kitchenette had rly cute dishes, fridge, microwave, stove. It was so great to make real hot tea after snowy Lassen. Family took great care of us at the restaurant (SOOO GOOD), and the little store. Loved that there’s a real hotel key. Five minutes to Lassen made visiting so easy, we enjoyed the park so much more too.

We tried the port ribs and the salmon sandwich. The ribs lacked flavor and had absolutely no smoke to them at all. The sauce was sweet (I prefer savory). The salmon sandwich was very good. The meals come with two sides. It's a lot of food to eat. Prices are moderate.

The Mineral store, what can I say 🤔..well I love saying hi to Jim every time we go in and I love that there is a place only a few miles away from us up here in the mountains so that I can buy cigarettes or alcohol or milk if we're in a pinch however be prepared to pay quite a bit more than you would if you just went to town. I also love that they have a pretty great selection of seasonal things like sleds, gloves for kids, jackets and even the best selection of long funny socks. The kids love the candy and toys, not unlike what you might get at a gift shop in an amusement park or Turtle Bay

My family makes a point to visit the diner at least 2x a year. The food is always amazing. The atmosphere is so cozy and inviting and the service is fast and pleasant. If you haven't eaten here. You're missing out.
