Lumberjacks Restaurant

Yes, it is true, we are in California for the Tough Mudder Lake Tahoe event. But the other highlight of our trip is our stop at Lumberjacks Restaurant in Sacramento. Just like the last two times I’ve eaten here, our group was floored.

Picture this: a family style restaurant with a perfect lumberjack theme. The walls are adorned with photos of turn of the century logging in the Pacific Northwest. Several flat screen televisions are mounted on the walls playing, no… not football, constant lumberjack sporting events. It doesn’t stop with the décor. All of the food is made fresh (including the sauces) amazingly tasty, and in HUGE quantities. But even for this dieting fitness competitor there are actually healthy lumberjack choices as well!

As you can tell, this place is my dream come true.

I was introduced to owner Scott Bailey 4 years ago when the restaurant chain was still young. Now, 10 restaurants strong, Lumberjacks Restaurants are not slowing down.

During our chat with Scott today (between breaks of me pointing out all of my friends on TV and shoving the outstanding food into my mouth) we discussed showcasing the newer generations of Lumberjack sports on the walls of these restaurants. Alongside of the historic logging photos will soon be autographed shots of Taylor Duffy, Dave Jewett, Brad Delosa, Jenny Atkinson, and all of your favorite competitors. Scott is also hoping to acquire old competition saws and chainsaws from athletes to feature in various restaurants.

In a time when lumberjack sports are struggling for recognition and growth the best way to America’s hearts is through their stomachs!

So lumberjack athletes… let’s help Scott with the growth of these restaurants!

Scott is looking for the following:
• Professional competition photos.
• Older competition equipment (saws, chainsaws, and axes)
• Folks interested in opening up a franchise (let’s get these in Wisconsin!)

If you have any of the above and are interested in being featured in his restaurants, please contact me for his information.

It’s not often we can go out to dinner with friends and see ourselves compete EVERY time!

We can’t wait to return for another great meal on Sunday!
