The Hearst Castle Visitor Center is the only location at Hearst Castle where food and drinks can be purchased. But, with a wealth of options to satisfy every craving, you’ll find plenty to dig into before and after your Hearst Castle tours here.

The Refectory

A self-service grab-n-go deli, The Refectory offers a wide variety of freshly made sandwiches, wraps, and salads. Baked goods, desserts, ice cream and packaged sweets are also available.

Coffee n Go

The Coffee n Go Bar—located in the Refectory—offers espresso drinks, Italian sodas, hot tea and a selection of locally baked pastries.

Chiefs Galley Cafe

Serving casual international fare and boasting organic locally raised Hearst Beef, this cafe’s menu choices—including a self-serve soup station, rice bowls, pasta and hand-tossed salads—are sure to please. Or, order a gourmet box lunch in advance, and pick it up when you arrive.

Camp Hill BBQ

Camp Hill BBQ is located in the Visitors Center courtyard, and is open daily in the summer and during peak holidays, weather permitting. Dig into grilled favorites, like BBQ chicken quarters, tri-tip sandwiches and hot dogs. Plus, choose from fresh sides, like housemade ranch beans and cole slaw.

La Cuesta Coffee

Featuring a variety of on-the-go snacks, pastries, coffee beverages and quick meals, La Cuesta Coffee is perfect for light refreshment before a tour, or for picnicking outside after your Hearst Castle tour.
