Steak House-brunch & Bar in Twain Harte

Located in Twain Harte, the Eproson House is a purveyor of fine American dining

Ray and Ella (Giannini) Eproson moved to Twain Harte with their family in 1930, where they owned Twain Harte Grocery (where 7-11 is now located). Ray became Twain Harte’s Postmaster and Fire Chief, with the Post Office located in their store. For many years, this also served as their home. They began construction of their new home on what is now Twain Harte Drive during World War II.

The home, completed in 1947, is now the current location of the Eproson House. The five-room home served as the business, with the Post Office located in what is now the bar, and Ray and Ella's bedroom situated just behind. The children's bedrooms were located in what is now our main dining room, which features the fireplace.

Ray Eproson passed in 1967, and Ella lived in the house until her passing in 1972. In 1973, the house was sold to the Wartons, who converted the home into a restaurant, “The Eproson House.” Dick Rachel took over the restaurant from the Wartons, and later sold it in 1975 (?) to Martha Scott, who owned the business until 1991. Martha added the new dining area on the west end of the building, and the bar and restaurant became the social and business center of Twain Harte.

Since 1991, the Eproson House has had several owners and, for a short time, a different name. It is, once again, the Eproson House Restaurant. We welcome all of you, past and present, to our House, the Eproson House. Cheers!
