Introducing Bar & Bites at the Historic Dutch Flat Hotel

Tucked away in the charming Gold Rush town of Dutch Flat, just one mile off I-80, there’s a new destination you’re going to love: Bar & Bites at the Dutch Flat Hotel. Combining the rich history of a landmark hotel with the flavors of a modern kitchen and bar, this is the perfect place to relax, refuel, and reconnect—whether you’re a local or just passing through.

A Step Back in Time

The Dutch Flat Hotel has stood as a welcoming landmark since the 1850s, a time when the streets bustled with miners seeking their fortunes during the California Gold Rush. Today, that same historic charm remains—complete with Victorian architecture, original woodwork, and a warm, inviting atmosphere that feels like a world away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

Conveniently Close, Wonderfully Different

If you’ve ever cruised along I-80 on your way to Tahoe or Reno, you’ve driven right past this hidden gem. Located just a mile off the highway, Dutch Flat offers a quick and easy stop where you can stretch your legs, cool down, and enjoy a bite to eat. With temperatures often 10–15 degrees cooler than the valley, it’s a refreshing escape on hot summer days.
