The story

From the owner

Ojai's oldest restaurant and tavern has been a gathering place for adventurers and locals since the early days.

The Deer Lodge serves classic Californian cuisine alongside a solid lineup of craft beers and spirits from the West Coast. The menu includes vegetarian and vegan options. Weekends bring live music and smokey barbecue. Beyond the dining room, there's a dog-friendly patio, a game room with pool table, and a lounge area that works for families during the day or groups looking to hang out into the evening.
