We had breakfast there today. The restaurant has a couple of patios. It is located is located on a major road, so if you wish to sit outside, we suggest that you choose the patio that is furthest from the road. Breakfast was OK. Nothing spectacular. The pond could use some cleaning. more

We recently returned to Rock Garden Cafe for lunch. We were last there about 16 months ago. We only had lunches there, but we keep going back because we feel it is a realiable choice for a casual lunch. As usual, I had one of the salads (huge portions), and my partner had a sandwich of some sort (also generous... more

My wife and I stopped at the Rock Garden for breakfast last Sunday. It was a beautiful warm January morning so we sat outside enjoying the sunshine and the Sunday brunch. The setting was great - and the brunch was excellent - and included an assortment of great desserts. I would definitely recommend sitting outside if the weather is suitable.... more

The Rock Garden Cafe is a nice place for breakfast. Definitely sit outside and enjoy the 'rock garden' and the mountain views. They have a wide selection of breakfast options and the food is good. I think they serve lunch and dinner, but I've only had breakfast there. I definitely recommend it for breakfast! more

It had been a year or so since we had experienced The Rock Garden. This time we took our guests for breakfast. I must say that I was embarrassed and disappointed. Upon entering through the walkway, there were scattered units of newspapers, free and for sale...it did not look as if we were entering a "garden". Plus, papers were all... more
