Dawson's Cafe

Dawson's Café is a local café in Montrose, California that was originally owned by Mr. Sheridan before he sold the business to retire. This is where Jake,  have worked, and for a short time during which there were many hospitalizations and several casualties, from both earthquakes and storms;.

Maggie's is where everyone seems to meet up, whether intentionally or not, and is a big source of the town gossip. Maggie's is also where everyone gets their horse feed, horse tack, equestrian clothes, lunch, a cup of coffee, or a slice of pie.

This was the location of Lou and Peter's first blind date after they began an online correspondence.

In episode 3 of Season 7, Maggie's was put up for sale and that sparked a competition between Lou and Tim over the sentiments of Maggie's having been in Hudson since 1902 and Tim's insatiable need to own a Buff Burgers franchise. Lou had initially wanted to have the building made a historical building but backed out due to the strain it caused on her and Peter's marriage, but Mallory then took Lou's work and spoke to the town mayor.
