Food scene
This is a strong local favorite. During the summer months we recommend calling your order in and picking it up to eat as the waiting line can be long especially on the weekends.

Around The Horn Brewing Company

The Anker family is Groveland history. The food is good! There is an organic selection. I recommend the sunset dinner hour in the summer for the best views.
Be sure to check the web site for hours and days they are opened.
