Mount Shasta Craft House

Mount Shasta's complete outfitter for climbers, skiers, hikers, backpackers, and cyclists. They also issue summit permits and run a current-conditions hotline for the mountain. Far from just a gear store, it's probably the most important shop in the county for anyone heading up.

Bold coffee drinks, gourmet burgers, barbecue, and fresh salads — open early for breakfast and running all day. One of the most reliably good stops in downtown.

A full Mexican kitchen with an extensive menu and large patio. Good for groups, open (relatively) late, and welcoming after a long day outside.
