Patrix Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 So where can I get a good meal and a cold one after coming down from Rainier?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodchips Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 Copper Creek Inn is not bad, a bit pricey, but the burgers aren't a bad deal. Or, if you want quantity, you can head down to the Mexican place in Eatonville (called Puerto Vallarta, I think.) They're friendly, pretty good and greasy, and fast. They've both got .

Dave C Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 for a typical bar food experience, the burgers are pretty good at The Highlander in Ashford. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirwoofalot Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 Where do you get your obligatory DBCB (that is Double Bacon Cheese Burger) for your children on the way out AFTER they reach their goal? With children in tow this becomes one of the most important questions on this board. I always want to make sure the reward is with in proportion of the effort. Out of I-90 it is Scotties Dairy Freeze in North Bend. How about Hwy 2, Hwy 20 or Ashford? I normally stop for a Scale Burger just outside of Ashford.

jshamster Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 Ashford = Scale burger Hwy. 2 = AlpenBurger in Startup Hwy. 20 = Good Food or Buffalo Run in Marblemount Hwy. 542 = lot of options between Glacier and B'ham. Northfork Beer Shrine is my fav. Hwy. 90 = no idea. I don't ever drive it. Cheers. Jimbo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cms829 Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 the copper creek is VERY good. not the cheapest by any means. but good. the flat iron is incredible. as said before the highlander is a good place for some bar food and a beer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fenderfour Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 FYI - "Good Food" is a misnomer. At best, it's passable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmo Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 I stopped at the Scaleburger after my last climb, and it was good, but not great for the price. I prefer the Burger joint in a rail car across the street. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farrgo Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 The bar at the Overland Lodge has pitchers of microbrew for $6.25 and pints of Coors (for non-NWeners) $1. Food is the usual bar variety. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevenSeagal Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 Now closed I think, the "Wild Berry" just outside the entrance was once a truly great place to go for a most heinous restaurant experience. A friend once ate a Shepherd's pie there enroute to Rainier and spent the whole weekend peeing out his ass. Another long gone daddy was the "Mountain Burger", a restaurant in Ashford just west of the gas station, and basically it was run out of some redneck's house. I went in there and watched the lady cook my burger with a spatula in one hand, and a filthy baby- wearing only a diaper- in the other arm. I never ate there again. It burned down a year or so later. The Lowlifer (i.e. Highlander) pizza, last I recall, was grrrross. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
