Fire Rock is a Rock n’ Roll themed burger joint that has excellent food and fun decor. Each one of their signature burgers is named after a classic rock n’ roll song; “Paradise City”, “Freak on a Leash”, “Eye of the Tiger” & “Californication” are some of the burgers you will find on the menu. This is another restaurant that we have done custom metal fabrication at.

Consejos para la ciudad

Chains Required from November-April
It is required by law to carry chains in your vehicle during the winter months. The weather in Big Bear can change quickly and we often have storms that come out of nowhere. Don’t make the mistake of thinking you don’t need chains, get some anyways! When chain control is in effect, Cal Trans has people that will install your chains for you so bring $40-$100 cash just in case. Always find a safe place to pull over to install chains, never stop in the middle of a road or highway to install chains. Be safe!

Driving up the mountain 🏔
There are 3 ways to Big Bear. Highway 330/18 from Highland, Highway 18 from Lucerne & Highway 38 from Redlands. Always check Cal-Trans before heading up the mountain to check for any incidents or closures. While driving up the mountain please pay attention to those behind you. If you are moving more slowly then use the next turn-out and allow the faster moving vehicles to pass you safely, most of the time they will flash their hazards to “Thank You” for letting them pass. Many accidents occur on the mountain roads due to vehicles attempting to pass a slow driver so please pull over.
