Absolutely LOVE these small little hidden jems...🤔I almost hate to review it in fear of it being...not too small.😆 When you first step in you are a little surprised how cozy the seating area is in comparison to how large the building looks from the outside. Once seated you get that cozy right-at-home feeling surrounded by eclectic country decor and locally made handicrafts and art for purchase. We arrived just about 15 minutes before they shut down for an hour and a half for changeover between 1:30 to 3pm and they didn't bat an eye or seemed put out over it.
We were pretty hungry and decided to try a couple of things. We both ordered sandwiches. I had the sausage lasagna soup and macaroni salad. My partner got chili with all the fixings and a taco. The portions were very generous and we definitely did not leave hungry! Her soups are to die for and you can actually differentiate the taste of the sandwhich fixings! We also left with a pan of cinnamon rolls with oh so creamy icing on the side (no pic because she kept it in the fridge for me until we were ready to leave) and some day olds. Let me tell you, they didn't make it to day 2. 😬😅 There's a fun assortment of different bottled/canned refreshments in the cooler to choose from sure to satisfy any flavor craving.
It's warming up now, she also boasts a huge covered deck with comfortable outdoor seating! Wifi is available as well although I didn't have time to test it because we ended up in delightful conversation with Mellany and her husband the whole time! Super awesome souls y'all! They are VERY accepting of all walks of folk so don't be...
Read moreOutstanding food and super nice staff. They have a small but inviting dining area which we passed on to go eat and watch the American Bison at the Camas Center about 5 minutes away. We drove 45 minutes just to try this food. Ended up getting there right at closing time but we weren't rushed or pushed to hurry. We called our order in and the food was ready for us 20 minutes earlier when we said we'd be there but a rain storm and and slow traffic made us late. Even after sitting for 20 minutes, it was still one of the best burgers I've ever had. I must say though, I will go back to get it straight from the grill. (Could it be any better? I'll let you know!) Donuts were top notch too, probably the best I've had in the Pacific Northwest. It's worth the drive and worth the money. We'll definitely...
Read moreMy wife and I love Mellany's bakery. We've brought family and friends here when they were in town visiting us. Today we had split pea soup with thick cut bacon and croutons the soup was hearty and delicious. My wife had a BLT that she keeps coming back for. It's one of her favorite sandwiches or lunch items in 2 counties. I had a Philly Burger it had grilled onions and roasted peppers and a nice horseradish Mayo sauce with a side of Aju dipping juice. It was absolutely delicious. There's Eric's meatloaf sandwich on the board as a special that I'll have to go back up and try next. We also have delightful conversation with owner, Mellany and coworker Eric. Talked about life and food. To top off the afternoon, they brought out a couple pieces of bacon for our dogs. We love...
