The Bridge on Third<br />
Opens in Temecula<br />
‘The Bridge on Third,’ the newest<br />
food venue in Temecula is definitely a<br />
hit among visitors and Temecula Valley<br />
locals. It offers the best version of<br />
traditional English food with a modern<br />
flare. All food and sauces coming out of<br />
the kitchen is flavorful and made from<br />
scratch. Fresh fish brought in daily; the<br />
handmade batter; fresh English Muffin<br />
for your Burger on Kobe beef; bangers<br />
and mash; and much more. The<br />
bangers are freshly ground and cased<br />
in-house. Chef Jeff Willett says, “the<br />
only thing we don’t make in-house is<br />
the ice cream and that’s coming soon”!<br />
The Bridge commemorates the<br />
origins of the managing owners, who<br />
come from Cambridge, England. We<br />
are a modern English Pub with a traditional<br />
flare. Mark and Matt Holmes<br />
are two brothers that are no strangers to<br />
the restaurant and bar industry. Mark<br />
has worked with Pechanga Resort<br />
and Casino for over 12 years training<br />
every food service employee about<br />
5-star customer service. Matt is a<br />
well-known local who has worked for<br />
over 15 years as fun and professional<br />
chain type restaurants. Both are excited<br />
about a concept they have been tossing<br />
around for years.<br />
The other two partners include<br />
Rick Frisby, a 40 year contractor that<br />
has transformed this staple location to<br />
an incredible family experience that<br />
includes a clean new inside environment;<br />
thick Astroturf for the kids to<br />
play or a adults can enjoy Ring Toss<br />
and Corn Hole. Music will be offered<br />
regularly. The forth part of this group<br />
is Craig Puma, 10-year owner of The<br />
Bank – Mexican Restaurant & Bar.<br />
Mr. Puma has owned a restaurant at<br />
this location for over 4 years. His<br />
comments, “there have been many<br />
restaurants at this location dating back<br />
two decades. There is no better time<br />
and no better concept than what this<br />
group has brought together. I am proud<br />
to a part of this new venture”.<br />
The Bridge on Third staff and<br />
ownership await your arrival. If there<br />
is any part of your experience that is<br />
unsatisfactory, we ask that you make<br />
the management team aware. There<br />
is nothing we won’t do to make this<br />
place the next best stop in Old Town<br />
Temecula and beyond.<br />
The Bridge on Third is located<br />
across from the City’s free parking<br />
structure at the corners of Third and<br />
