I would add Bassetts station on 49, burgers, ice cream and fuel, at the junction of 49 and the gold lake highway, also right under the Sierra Buttes for adv riding.

Seasonal closure in winter though!

I am told

Renata’s Crêperie, Arcata, is very good​


Also, we are regulars at
Highway 36 east, Mill Creek is killer. A bit spendy, but way good

I need to put in for The Dog House in Bodega Bay. Killer burgers, coffee and ice cream next door. Great lunch stop.

got them added :thumbup

Fwiw, their Yelp page claims they'll re-open next May. 🤷‍♂️

I have it scratched at the moment, given the lack of finding any indication of progress toward reopening (it looks like that opening date on yelp has been pushed back at least once), and their website registration has lapsed. I'm open to leaving it in with notes indicating the current closure if that's preferred, though.

this is the most solid info i was able to find outside of yelp/google/reddit: https://lostcoastoutpost.com/2024/jul/24/whats-going-samoa-cookhouse-danco-owner-dan-johnso/
