In 1912, at the bend of Forest Avenue, 23 year old Joe Jahraus opened the Laguna Lumber Company, he and his father(cigar maker, first postmaster and real estate agent) built the beautiful French Normandy building that is here today. Prior to the lumberyard opening, building supplies needed to be dragged in by mule or floated in on the tides, and therefore, Laguna Beach had less than three hundred permanent residences. After the lumberyard opened, the area began to grow at unprecedented rates, transforming it from a tent town into a thriving city. Laguna Lumber operated for seventy three years, sixty two of them in this location and its' architecture, influenced by Joe's tour abroad in World War I, is one of the most significant influences on the town's aesthetic. Half timbers, mud walls and shingled roofs grace many of the downtown storefronts and homes throughout the city because of this landmark. Today, 384 Forest is home to Lumberyard - a contemporary American restaurant.

The view is amazing and so is the staff. They even made sure we were warm as we were sitting outside near the ocean. Food was good. We had Ribeye steak which was tasty and ordered sides of brussel sprouts and potatoes au gratin. large order for sides enough for two or more people. Drinks were good but on the pricey side. Expected as this is the beach and hotel is going through a reno. Beautiful spot! The people that work here are great and music was perfect! Definitely a place we will be visiting again and again.

We dined on the patio & enjoyed a lovely sunset. My husband’s bouillabaisse was great, very large portion. I had the seafood tower, also good portion for (2). The fried Calamari was good, but for some reason much of the rest didn’t seem as fresh to me. Pastry/bakery is great. Our waiter was excellent. The restaurant needs a refresh inside.

Enjoyed their rooftop with a wonderful view of the ocean. Reservation for 2 was at 5:45 and they sat us very quickly. All employees were super friendly and helpful. We ordered the cornbread appetizer, a bowl of their clam chowder soup and a 3 item barbecue combo. Everything was delicious, especially the soup. Also had a very well made old fashioned. Had a great time and felt the price was well worth it…Would definitely come back again.
