OUR STORY
THE LUMBERJACK'S WAY
- Lumberjacks Restaurant strives to provide you with great food and service, all at a price that everyone can afford.
As our great country expanded into the vast unknown of the densely forested Northwest, independent, strong men were needed to harvest the lumber for the new townships and communities being built throughout our growing country. These men were known as lumberjacks.
Their job was not an easy one. The work was dangerous, difficult and the living conditions were primitive, to say the least.
Lumberjacks lived an independent lifestyle that was treacherous. They were known for taking great pride in their craft, strength and masculinity. When they were not working they were playing rough games, telling tall tales and consuming large amounts of food to keep them going strong.Lumberjacks needed large hearty meals to fill them up and keep them satisfied for hours at a time because of their strenuous work and the long 14 to 18 hour days.
With that idea in mind, Lumberjack's is a place where individuals and families can have a meal that is delicious, hearty and filling, yet at a price that will not break the bank. Thank you for being our guest! We strive to provide you with great food and service, all at a price that everyone can afford.

OUR FOUNDER
SCOTT BAILEY - OWNER
Scott Bailey has has been a part of the Lumberjacks' leadership since 2007. He also has over 30 years of experience in the restaurant industry managing various restaurants, including franchised restaurants.
Scott has opened numerous restaurants from the ground floor up and also has spearheaded extensive remodels of tired and closed buildings and businesses. In the process he has recruited, hired and personally trained hundreds of employees. It's these employees that have proven to be at the core of success at each location, and Scott's success as a restaurant professional.
It was that level of professionalism that moved Scott along within the restaurant industry and resulted in his appointment to President of the California Restaurant Association for the Shasta Chapter, a position he held for eight years. In addition to selflessly giving his time for the good of the restaurant industry, Scott also held the position of Director of Operations at Logan's Roadhouse where he was responsible for opening and operating seven Logan's Roadhouses from Redding to Fontana, California.
With the opening of the second Lumberjacks Restaurant in 2007, Scott Bailey set the stage for the growth and expansion of what would become a beloved family of restaurants. What started as a single location with a vision of hearty portions, a warm, welcoming atmosphere, and a commitment to quality quickly evolved into a growing chain known for its signature comfort food and rustic charm. Through dedication, hard work, and a passion for great dining experiences, Scott and his team have continued to expand, bringing the Lumberjacks Restaurant experience to more communities while staying true to the core values that made the first location a success.
