Mom's Pies Etc.....an Excellent place to stop!
The inside of Mom's coffee shop...
And...just what we needed! A nice big piece of pie along with steaming hot coffee. I went for Bumbleberry Crumble and the hubby enjoyed Apple and Boysenberry Crumble. Of course, we shared bites with each other, and they were both absolutely delicious!
Julian is a historic mining town....along the way it has also developed quite the reputation for its local Bed & Breakfasts. At over 4000 feet in elevation, it can be quite cool. It actually snowed the morning we went thru Julian!!
Apples are sacred to the town, and they enjoy Apple Days which runs from mid-September thru mid-November.
Take the historical tour thru the town and you'll come across the Pioneer Museum, the Swycaffer Saloon, the Julian Jail and more!
In September, head to Julian for the Annual Bluegrass Festival!
Head over to the Chamber of Commerce for more information.
Not far away from town is the Palomar Observatory....renowned to stargazers around the world. It's home to the Hale Telescope, as well as many others.
We really enjoyed our stay in Julian! Friendly people, lots of historic things to see and of course....pie!
