The Cookshak

Updated update! We went in yesterday for lunch to try out items added to the menu. My expectations were exceeded! I tried the red beans and rice as well as their gumbo. Best ever. The portions are generous. Everybody likes to feel like the money they spend is worth it. This is well worth it. From the first bite you know there is no skimping on quality. You can see it, smell it and taste the quality of their ingredients. The service is fun and friendly. Just say yes to The Cookshak! Update review! I had the burger for lunch today. Fantastic! It more than the flavor. A burger has to feel right, and it does! The steak fries that come with it are perfect, too! Amazing sandwiches! The potato salad and coleslaw were fantastic, too. It's my new favorite lunch place.

Update! As of April 24, theyve upgraded their space! Now occupying a cute little dining room at the front of the Elks Lodge! Food is as wonderful as always, and Garret was a pleasure to chat with. Big things are in store for this spot!A hidden gem! Tucked away behind the Big Bear Elks Lodge is a little walk up window serving some big flavors! House smoked meats, charbroiled burgers, theres something for everyone. One of the best kept secrets of the big bear valley. Service is pleasant, the atmosphere is a whole vintage vibe, and the prices are very fair considering the quality and care given.
