As Independence Day approaches, many look forward to a long holiday weekend filled with delicious food and quality time with loved ones. Whether you’re planning to dine out or stock up on provisions for your celebration, The Rustic Canyon Restaurants have you covered with exciting ideas and special 4th of July hours.

Sweet Rose Creamery’s Main Street shop covers you if you’re craving something sweet. They will open early, at 11 a.m., so you can satisfy your ice cream cravings after enjoying the parade. Make sure to check out their assortment of frozen novelties, including Orange Guava Popsicles, Strawberry Ice Cream Cake Sandwiches, and Birthday Cake Push Pops. You can pre-order online for pickup or delivery from the Santa Monica and Brentwood locations for added convenience.

Tallula’s is another excellent option for spending the day with friends and family. Their “Beer Garden” offers a relaxed atmosphere with fun music, and you can enjoy refreshing wine, beer, and Margaritas from their satellite bar. Start your day with Breakfast Tacos and fried egg-topped Nachos Sencillo, take a leisurely stroll to the beach with a Paleta, and return for Happy Hour Margaritas. Take advantage of their dinner options like Steak Fajitas and Enchiladas de Hongos.

Esters may close at 4 p.m., leaving plenty of time to grab some delectable Cheese & Charcuterie Platters and vibrant Market Platters with housemade dips. They also offer a new BBQ Rub and a selection of crushable wines, perfect for any outdoor cookout. Pre-order online or swing by the shop.

While Milo + Olive will be closing at 3 p.m., make sure to stop by for breakfast or lunch. Take the chance to grab some freshly-baked Hamburger & Hot Dog Buns, available in convenient 4-packs on a first-come, first-serve basis.

Please note that Rustic Canyon, Cassia, and Birdie G’s will be closed on July 4th. Also, Huckleberry will be closing at 3 p.m., so their teams can enjoy the fireworks.
