Vibe

While quaint, this family-friendly eatery is big on entertainment and energy. The brick facade sports the restaurant's sign, which consists of crossed drumsticks and a guitar pick, a portent of what awaits inside.

With a rock & roll motif, one might expect the interior to be dark and grungy, like a rundown bar. Instead, diners will discover a clean, well-lit room with wood floors and wainscot. Contemporary tables dot the room and are suitable for small or large groups. Solo diners will appreciate the bar area with stainless steel countertops and comfortable stools.

The walls above the wainscoting are a light shade and adorned with drum cymbals, guitars, and other musical memorabilia. It's a classy touch that brings musical authenticity to the restaurant. The songs pumped through the restaurant add to the music theme, while the nights when live music is featured bring the Real McCoy to the venue.

The outdoor patio is a popular dining spot, especially since it's pet-friendly and has heaters when the temperatures drop. It's idyllic for people-watching or sharing cold brews with friends after exploring Big Bear Discovery Center.

Surrounded by a beautiful mountain landscape and located in Big Bear, this hopping restaurant offers a fantastic experience!

Fire Rock Burgers & Brews: Menu & Drinks

Before shining the spotlight on the main attraction (the burgers!), let's explore the opening acts that get equal billing.

The Amped Up Salads offer healthy, high-wattage goodness for those looking for something other than a burger. A standout is the Aztec Salad, which features a mix of Romaine and iceberg lettuce, mangos, avocados, tomatoes, and red onion. Fried jalapenos and wonton strips atop the veggies give it a bite of heat and crunch. Tying everything together is the creamy champagne vinaigrette. As with all the salads, you may add grilled chicken for an additional cost.

Other options include appetizers that can serve as a meal, such as wings, Hawaiian Poke Nachos, and Birria Quesadilla.

And now, with no further ado, put your hands together for the hamburgers! These handhelds showcase Rocker Bros. Tri-Blend beef, featuring short ribs, brisket, and Angus chuck. You'll taste the difference this quality beef makes with every bite.

With names paying homage to rock hits like Californication and Desperado, you are in for a creative culinary treat with their burgers. The House of the Rising Sun is a hearty handheld that will satisfy any appetite after a day at Big Bear Snow Play. The burger features a juicy patty with American cheese, applewood smoked bacon, fried egg, avocado mash, creamy sriracha sauce, and raspberry fig jam. It offers a utopia of flavors and textures that will have you rock your socks off!

Regarding beverages, you'll find an array of craft beers on tap and in cans. Wine is also available, as are craft and adult milkshakes with beer.
