Built in the early 1930’s, 230 Forest Avenue Restaurant & Bar was once an open air market that served as the primary destination to procure sundries and fresh produce. The original doors still hang and are an historic element retained by the Laguna Beach Historical Society. These wooden accordion style doors still hang and open daily at 11am as they always have, welcoming guests looking for {nourishment} or a break from the multitude of activities that may bring them to or keep them in Laguna Beach for the day.
