5 Best New Restaurants in Clovis that People are Raving About

Clovis has grown from “Fresno’s quieter neighbor” into a legit dining destination of its own. Old Town Clovis especially has seen a wave of modern eateries, breweries, and polished family‑run spots.

These five relatively new or newly buzz‑worthy restaurants are great reasons to stay in Clovis for dinner instead of heading into Fresno.

1. House of JuJu (Old Town Clovis)

House of JuJu feels like a pub‑meets‑gourmet‑burger bar right in the heart of Old Town. It’s cozy, brick‑lined, and usually buzzing, with a patio that’s great when the weather cooperates.

The menu leans creative comfort food: build‑your‑own burgers and lettuce wraps, loaded tater tots, big salads, and flatbreads.

Toppings and sauces are where things get fun—blue cheese, bacon jam, chipotle aioli, grilled onions, and more. Craft beer and cider options round it out.

2. The Craft House

The Craft House brings a modern gastropub vibe to Clovis: lots of wood, big TVs, a long bar, and a laid‑back but polished feel that works for both families and date night.

Expect elevated bar food—burgers, wings, tacos, nachos, sandwiches—with better ingredients and more creative touches than a standard sports bar.

Rotating taps focus on local and regional craft beers, and you’ll usually find seasonal specials on both the food and drink side.

3. Colton’s Social House

Located at Sierra Vista Mall, Colton’s Social House is a big, stylish space with a central bar, industrial‑chic decor, and a menu that balances comfort food with a few lighter, modern options.

You’ll see things like skewers, sliders, flatbreads, poke‑style bowls, big salads, and sharable appetizers alongside hearty mains.

Cocktails lean fun and approachable, and the outdoor seating is popular when it cools off in the evenings.

4. Trelio Food & Wine (Revitalized Classic)

Trelio isn’t brand‑new, but it has evolved and stayed current enough to still be one of Clovis’s most “special night out” options. The dining room is intimate and quietly upscale, with a strong focus on wine.

The menu is seasonal, New American, and ingredient‑driven—think refined takes on steak, pork, local vegetables, and seafood, often with Mediterranean or California influences. If you’re into thoughtful plating and good wine pairings, this is where you book a table.

5. Kuppa Joy Coffee House (Old Town Clovis)

More cafe than full restaurant, Kuppa Joy has become a central part of the Clovis scene and feels “new school” in all the right ways. The decor is warm and modern, with a community‑gathering‑place vibe.

Coffee drinks are the star—carefully pulled espresso, specialty lattes, cold brew—but there’s also a solid lineup of pastries, toasts, breakfast sandwiches, and light bites that make it a good casual breakfast or work‑session spot.
