Bella Brooke Café in Gena's Sierra Inn, LLC

On Site Restaurant

The Bella Brooke Cafe at Gena's Sierra Inn is our on site restaurant serving Traditional American Comfort Food. Our establishment is a rustic mountain cabin styled building, typical of the American 1930s. Hours and our menu vary depending on the season.

Known colloquially as Gena's Place by locals since she bought it in 2004, the restaurant was finally officially named "Bella Brooke Cafe" after our two granddaughters, Bella & Brooke. Their youthful enthusiasm is the inspiration behind everything we hope to accomplish.
