A Cozy Breakfast Gem in Citrus Heights If you’re looking for a charming breakfast spot with a warm, rustic feel, The Lodge Coffee Shop on 8191 Auburn Blvd in Citrus Heights, CA is a must-visit! This small A-frame restaurant brings the cozy, cabin-like atmosphere of South Lake Tahoe right into town, making it the perfect spot to start your morning. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with friendly and incredible service. The staff made us feel right at home, which only added to the inviting ambiance. Now, let’s talk about the food—absolutely fantastic. I had a classic breakfast of eggs, ham, and a short stack of pancakes, and everything was cooked to perfection. My wife went with the Chicken Fried Steak & Eggs, which was hearty, flavorful, and exactly what you want from a comforting breakfast. And let’s not forget the coffee—rich, smooth, and just right. We enjoyed ourselves very much and would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a great breakfast or lunch spot.

A fantastic small place to get some good food. They do their breakfast a little different which I liked a lot. The hash browns can be served extra crispy and is the better for it. Also the chicken fried steak is done in a thinner batter which lets you taste the meat. The eggs are also well cooked and had a good flavor, where most places they are bland.

Friendly staff, quick service and good home cooked style food. I had the pancakes with strawberry and whipped cream, eggs, and hashbrowns, eggs Benedict, breakfast burrito, and Mickey Mouse pancakes. Delish! Will definitely be back!
