Auction Yard Café - Alturas
Auction Yard Café
Description
Tucked away in Alturas, this family-run diner delivers generous, home-cooked breakfasts and lunches in a cozy, small-town setting. Friendly staff, kid-welcoming service and skillet-sized portions make it a local favorite; standouts include chicken-fried steak, ham-and-eggs and hearty gravy. An unassuming exterior and a few counter stools reinforce its down-to-earth charm, while community touches — from auctions to birthday celebrations — add warmth. Practical note: the restaurant is cash-only and seating is limited.

Cozy atmosphere, 3 MAYBE 4 bar stools to cozy up to the counter and get coffee and watch Cheryl cook her magic. This location can be easily missed (I did) as it didn't look like a place to eat. Where locals come to eat! Auctions happen 1st and 3rd Saturday of the month at noon
This restaurant has a wonderfully friendly small-town vibe, with a pleasant staff and incredible food!
Family run business in quaint Alturas CA. My husband ordered chicken steak with gravy and it was skillet sized. My sister had skillet sized pancakes. Large quantity of food for your money.
We were driving through town on our way back to Oregon and hungry! I looked this place it up and don't regret a thing. My husband had chicken fried steak (they were out of gravy so substituted brown gravy). He eats a chicken fried steak wherever we go and gave this a solid 9/10. It also came with eggs, hashbrowns, bacon and toast. I had the French dip sandwich and fries which was also amazing. The waitress/daughter was a joy and it sounded like her mom was the cook. Stop by on your way through- you won't regret it!
