Formerly called Marmalade, Marinade is fiercely loyal to local farms, and even displays a chalkboard of those they support, including Page’s Organics. The menu offers habanero marmalade wings, burgers made with farm-raised beef, and a quinoa power bowl served in a barnyard-chic setting.marinadeonmain

The London Bakery

Milagro Winery

This gorgeous 110-acre winery, which completed a renovation last fall, is peaceful and impeccably manicured, with a modern, inviting tasting room (check out the board games!). The kid- and dog-friendly outdoor area, which includes a fire pit, bocce court, and playground, is a prime place to sip their Bellorosso red blend and excellent Ballena Blanco.milagrowinery

The London Bakery

A slice of Britain has found a home at this Ramona café, where afternoon high tea with scones and clotted cream is the real draw.

Ramona Family Naturals

This mostly organic grocer has produce, unique condiments—like a German-made, non-GMO, grass-fed butter—beauty products, grab-and-go foods, and a cozy seating area.ramonafamilynaturals

Ramona Antique Fair

Ramona Antique Fair

Far better organized and maintained than most antiques shops, this packed store—housed in a vintage 1915 building—has great kitchenware, clothing, toys, books that date back to the 1700s, and even complimentary coffee while you browse.

734 Main Street

ChuckAlek

These Ramona-based beer brewers focus on modern interpretations of classic styles, including sours, porters and stouts, and German-style lagers. Outside food is allowed, so we recommend noodles from Pinto Thai next door.chuckalek
