    Pork Belly Sandwich
    David P.

    Nut allergy warning: Obviously, avoid the PB&J and probably let them know about any allergies. I thought an affordable, quality sandwich shop didn't exist in the PNW. But when I went to go visit a friend in Mount Vernon, not only did I find a very reasonable one, but they have affordable matcha and coffee to boot? I would be a regular if I lived here, no doubt about it. The pork belly sandwich (5/5): Rich, tender, juicy, the perfect filling amount for lunch. Mochi cream donut (5/5): Take a Boston creme and eliminate the randomness you'd get from a dry pastry dough. Chewy, creamy, somewhat sharable since my sugar tolerance is low but it's not too sweet either. My friend said his beef sandwich was a banger (no photo, he finished it too fast). I was so lucky that they opened recently and I hope they continue this level of quality. Stop by on the drive through. Would recommend.

    Lemon cheesecake cookie
    Casey S.

    We kept seeing pictures of this lemon cheesecake cookie all over Facebook and had to give it a try. When we first walked it the space is very open and the gentleman behind the counter greeted us immediately. Not a ton of tables but enough for the people sitting at them to actually enjoy their food. We got our cookie to go and barely made it across the street before diving in. It was so good! The cookie by itself reminds me of a macadamia nut (didn't have nuts) but when you get to the middle it's an awesome lemony cheesecake! Will 100% come back and try some more goodies!

    Veggie sandwich
    Whitney A.

    Small, cute little gem in downtown! I was so excited to see they had vegan options ( thank you! ) The vegan choices were Asian Pear Salad, Veggie Sandwich, and Chocolate Tart, & everything was sooo delicious. The staff were super friendly and took the time to explain the menu. The Asian Pear Salad was super refreshing and filling with a great Korean-inspired flavor. I had it with the spicy dressing, and the pear paired perfectly with the heat. (They also offer a pineapple ginger dressing if you prefer something milder.) The chocolate tart was FIRE. I'll definitely be counting the days until I'm back for another one. So happy to finally have a legit yummy vegan option in downtown!

    Pork belly and fries

    The food was amazing. The service was earnest. I think there was only one person and it was busy. He did great. The space is very clean in design and appearance. The honey ginger lemonade was delightful. I'll be back

    Kalbi beef sandwich

    Unique place to eat. Sandwiches were good- loved the salad. Had a caramel Frappuccino that was delicious. Took home apple pie oatmeal cookies and enjoyed them very much. Will have to go back to try the donuts as they were out.

    This might just be my favorite grocery store in existence…read more Everything I could ever need is in between this four wall, two story building. This co-op in Skagit is filled with healthy alternatives, fresh produce, and even a juice/coffee/snack bar serving up some delicious bites. I found a number of local products and beers to buy from the grocery side, and a mushroom sandwich. I cannot properly describe the deliciousness of this sandwich - you just had to be there. I also loved that the co-op's second story is filled with the most unique home and gift items you'll find. Everything is sustainable first, and they even have a decent book selection. Couldn't imagine a better place to spend my Saturday, just wish I lived closer so I could visit every weekend.

    I saw the building on our way into town for visiting the tulip fields. It caught my eye, so my…read morehusband and I stopped by afterward to check it out. It's a neat grocery store with fresh build-your-own sandwich options, bakery treats, gifts and trinkets, wines, and a lot more. We ordered sandwiches from the kiosk where it prints a ticket to bring to the counter. You can purchase other items with your sandwich, too. We had ordered two pineapple conchas from the dessert case for a post-lunch dessert. The veggies on the sandwich were so fresh it hit the spot for a light midafternoon meal. There is an upstairs seating area, it's really quiet and private. After we ate our lunch, we looked at some trinkets in the gift shop that's upstairs too. It truly has it all!

    Calico Cupboard is one of those places that you NEED to go to when you're in town…read more When you get there, you just sign in yourself at the stand which is a good system so no one has to check you in when they're already pretty busy. While you're waiting you can go to the shop down the stairs or go to the dessert area right next to the waiting area to get some great desserts. Last time i was there I saw frosted cream cheese sugar cookies, and pies, and more. When you get seated there are so many great food options, lots of options, same with drinks. They are only open until 3:30 pm so be sure to manage time well. And don't expect an empty place, it's usually populated. Tight space, so scoot in those chairs as far as you can. Staff were laid back, and nice. When they're busy make sure to be patient with the staff, they're dealing with tons of other orders as well.

We had breakfast there last Wednesday morning, and from the moment we arrived, it felt special. The outside is adorable, but somehow the inside is even more charming. There's such a warm, welcoming energy the second you walk in. Off to the side is their incredible shop, "Re-Feather Your Nest," filled with thousands of unique and beautiful items--it honestly feels like a destination all on its own. To the left when you enter, you're greeted by their bakery cases, and wow--there are more options than most bakeries I've ever seen. Everything looked amazing, and we were lucky enough to be seated right away (always a win!). The restaurant itself is two stories, and our table overlooked the store below, which made the whole experience even more fun. We started with their famous cinnamon roll, fresh coffee (with the cutest little design on top!), and freshly squeezed grapefruit juice--which was incredibly refreshing. For breakfast, I ordered the Calico Benedict on a homemade English muffin with corned beef--so good! And the country-style potatoes? Easily some of the best I've ever had. I couldn't even finish them and happily took the rest home...they were just as delicious the next day. My husband ordered the Breakfast Sampler with sausage and loved every bite as well. What really stood out, beyond the food, was how clean everything was and how genuinely happy the staff seemed. You can tell they enjoy working there, and that makes such a difference. After breakfast, we wandered through the gift shop and found so many unique treasures--big and small. I actually visited Magnolia in Waco, Texas a couple of months ago, and honestly, this is the kind of charming, personality-filled place that would fit right in there (and maybe even outshine it!). If you're ever in the area, I highly recommend stopping by--even if it's just to browse the shop. It's one of those rare places that truly has it all. A must-visit!
