Shopping, Dining, Art, and You!

The Promenade on Forest is an outdoor dining and retail pedestrian plaza located on a portion of Forest Avenue in Laguna Beach.

In the fall of 2021, the City Council extended our successful Outdoor Dining and Parklet Program for another two years, until January of 2024 and with 37 restaurants participating, we will continue to enjoy many outdoor dining opportunities throughout the City.  The centerpiece of the outdoor program is the Promenade on Forest, which was created in June 2020, to assist local businesses affected by COVID-19 restrictions.  With strong support from the community, the City Council initiated a process to develop plans to upgrade the Promenade with permanent improvements and we hope to begin construction in 2023.
