                                                                                       The original Pine House Café & Tavern was opened in 1942 when                                                                                         WWII was in full swing and Mount Laguna was buzzing with                                                                                                 activity from the Laguna Mountain Air Force Base. Decades later                                                                                         the base closed & the Pine House changed several times before                                                                                             closing for quite a long spell.

Nica Knite reopened Pine House in the summer of 2011 and was joined by her business partner & chef son, Jonathon, in 2014… With a growing reputation for great food & friendly mountain atmosphere PINE HOUSE is proud to be “the place to dine in the backcountry!”

Weekend Dinner reservations strongly recommended.
