Heart of Gold Cafe at 7862 Mountain Ranch Road, Mountain Ranch, California.

We love this cafe. Michelle has created a friendly and delicious lunch and dinner experience to our little town. (Tu-Sat 11:00-7:00) Featuring Mexican and American dishes, delightful salads, hefty burritos, authentic tacos, hearty burgers, excellent french fries and a surprising array of craft beers, this cafe is the real treasure in the mother lode. We often plan our trips into town to coincide with the cafe hours. For quality, service, atmosphere, and sometimes live music, it is a great place to stop and refresh, as any local will tell you.
