Reilly's Saloon & Café in lovely La Porte , California !
Opened in 1937 by local legend/miner Frank C. Reilly and his wife Lucille, this family restaurant has been open for over 70 years and is proud to introduce current owners, Tim & “B” Boyer! Tim grew up coming to La Porte almost every year during his childhood. Four years ago, Tim and B bought Reilly's, and have since fallen in love with life in this small mountain town of 26 residents.
Tim is the primary cook/waiter/janitor/busboy/dishwasher, and his wife B is the chief accountant/sous-chef/waitress/bottle-scrubber. You may notice their young daughter Lexi running around Reilly's, hopefully with one of her parents or friends closely behind. You'll likely meet Terry while you're here; she is Reilly's bartender/waitress/fire monitor/snow removal engineer, and part of the Reilly's "family" since 2007. Not sure who's who? Just ask- we're always happy to stop and say hello!
One of the great things about small town life is that it is slow-moving, and while you are here we encourage you to walk around and enjoy the pace. Allow yourself to be freed from the burden of the hustle and bustle of "the Big City ". Life in La Porte is different in every way, including how we do things here at Reilly's. We strive to provide you with great food, at a reasonable price, as quickly as possible; however, sometimes only two of the three are possible in this setting. So the key to having a good time at Reilly's is to sit back, relax, and enjoy the company while your meal is being cooked to order.
Yes, that's right- cooked to order is the only way we do it, no heat lamps or re-heating in a microwave for us! If you see that your waiter/waitress is busy making drinks at the bar and you need a refill, don't hesitate to grab your glass and walk right up to the bar for a top-off. You'll become part of Reilly's history! You may or may not know that running a business in a town this small requires us to head down the hill at least once a week to shop for our inventory down in "the Big City". Because of this, our prices do reflect the cost of purchasing and hauling our goods from out of town, but we strive to keep our costs down and still always offer something delicious at prices everyone can afford.
Providing you with the best food, drink, and service possible is our number one goal, so if you have specific dietary needs please let us know and we will try our best to accommodate you. Likewise, if you're in the mood for something that looks possible but is unlisted, please ask your server; we will accommodate your taste buds if we can. If you've read this far, we're grateful for your time, wish you a great day, and hope you have an enjoyable and memorable experience at Reilly's!
We greatly appreciate your company and your patronage. Please visit us again. If you are interested in staying in La Porte please ask your server about lodging options available.
