Their lighter beers have a little infusion of fruit…read morebut done in a way that it adds a bit of freshness and hint if sweetness to the beer without leaning into tart or sour territory. The space is vast with lots of space to sit and spread out. They don't serve food, so our dog friendly but there is always a burger food truck parked outside and you can bring outside food in. A lot of groups and families hang out here because it's a very welcoming space. Price is pretty good. $5-$6 for a 10 oz and $7-8 for a pint. They also have a flight that lets you try five beers. Parking is easy and free outside or across the street at the library or in the lot towards the center of downtown Enumclaw I had a good time here and am looking forward to returning to try more beers.

Solid 3.5 overall…read more We like this place but I probably ordered the wrong thing on the menu - the vermicelli bowl with peanut sauce and the nuac Cham sauce. While the salmon BLT and grilled turkey sandwiches were fine, the bowl was not. The nuac Cham sauce had no fish sauce or taste and the peanut sauce did not taste like peanut sauce and was super thick. It was a bit weird with pickles at the bottom. Normally, the dish has jalapeño and the cucumbers are cut in strips v. Slices. The noodles seemed overcooked. The Portions are decent. We give the sandwiches 4 stars but the bowl is a 3 for taste. Everything else is good- service, average noise. Street parking but fairly easy to find a spot close by.

This is my first time at this restaurant and it was a delight. Our server was fantastic. She had…read moregreat recommendations and she did not steer us wrong. The poutine is what we started with, the fries were piping hot, the gravy was rich and delicious, and did I mention there was bacon jam in there? Since we had the poutine as an appetizer, we opted to get salads instead of the side fries for our burgers and sandwiches. I have to admit this is one of the most impressive side salads I've ever had. The greens were so fresh! On special they had their homemade clam chowder which checked all the boxes, it had a great balance of meat to potato to herb. I will be dreaming about this for the rest of my life. If you see it on special you need to get it. My group ordered the mushroom burger, the the bacon jamburger, and the French dip which we split three ways. And when I tell you we fought over keeping our own. I am not lying. The burgers were juicy, the toppings were generous and well balanced. The French dip had roast beef that just melted in your mouth. For the first time. I don't think I needed the au jus. One of my party ordered the truffle gnocchi with wild mushrooms. I don't know how, but it was somehow light, not too rich, and the gnocchi soft pillows had the perfect fluffy texture. We did have to take most of our food home because the portions were generous. And somehow the gnocchi reheated. Well. I'm going to call that a miracle. All in all, if you're anywhere near Enumclaw you need to go here. We made the trip from Puyallup because my dad could not stop raving about the poutine. Next time I'm in town. I will be back!

Stopped into town for ice cream but ended up stumbling across this place and I'm so glad we did!…read moreIt's the kind of classic, no-frills spot where you can grab a cold beer, catch a game, and dig into some seriously satisfying comfort food. The vibe is laid-back and welcoming. Every server we interacted with was smiling and genuinely friendly. It really added to the atmosphere. You can tell the staff enjoys working there, and that kind of energy is infectious. Now, the food: the burger was exactly what I crave when I think of a good, old-fashioned burger. Nothing over-complicated, just juicy, well-seasoned beef, melted cheese, and a toasted bun. It was cooked just right, with that perfect balance of savory and juicy. Simple, but executed beautifully. On the side? Two absolutely gigantic onion rings that were golden, crispy, and sweet. The batter had a light crunch without being greasy, and the onions inside were tender and flavorful. Basically onion ring perfection. The mozzarella sticks were another standout. Hot, gooey, and with a satisfying cheese pull that was honestly Instagram-worthy. Crispy on the outside, melty on the inside. Exactly how they should be. I wouldn't recommend the cocktails. They were trying too hard with a fancy mixology vibe that didn't quite land. But the beer? Cold, refreshing, and just right with the food and the atmosphere. Why go? If you're looking for a relaxed spot to hang out, enjoy a game, and eat some really solid comfort food, this place delivers. It's the kind of place you leave full, happy, and already planning your next visit.

This is the "good 'ol boys" brewery in town…read more And I say that with 100% positivity. You'll feel like you're at a big rowdy backyard cookout (don't you DARE call it a BBQ unless yer smokin' meats) that you just stumbled into. The man running the taps, who I can only assume is the owner, is boisterous, friendly, and ON TOP OF THINGS. He'll ask you what you normally drink, give you some samples, and hook you up with the right beer. I tried to give him a card and he just said "just let me know how many you've had before you leave, I trust you!". You really feel like you're at some sort of family get together. Oh, and the views of Rainier from the patio are stellar! Unlike almost all other breweries in the PacNW, this one is not stocked chock full of insufferable, apathetic, hipster and post-hipster types. The crowd here is largely blue collar: truckers and farmers, Carhart and coveralls, construction workers and men-at-work signs. Which, again, is refreshing for a brewery. Beer is for everyone, not just beardos at coffeeshops with macbook pros that "work in tech". My only qualm is that I feel like the beer is just OK. It wasn't bad or anything, but it also didn't blow me away. Most of the beers were a little too much on the sweet and malty side (even the IPA) for what I usually like to drink. (which is stuff that is really pale, dry, and bright) The irony of my sounding like one of those disaffected beer bro stereotypes I just criticized earlier in the review is not lost on me though so...take what I say with a grain of malted grain.

Like a lot of breweries I've been…read moreto, Elk Head is tucked away in a industrial/work shop location, just off the main highway running through town. I don't know if it's there all the time, but when I stopped in, there's a Mexican food truck in the front parking lot. Once you've seen it it not hard to miss, as it's the only shop with all the doors wide open and a good sized covered patio area. Walking through the entrance, the decor stands out right away, growler jugs, hanging from the ceiling from breweries from all over the country, along with a lot of cool animal wood sculptures and memorabilia for honoring Veterans and history. I believe the bar tender was also the owner or one of them? Very friendly and helpful with the selections. Taking time to answer questions, even on a surprisingly busy Thursday afternoon. Lots of seating throughout the inside and on the patio area. They specialize in unfiltered brews, which I like, as it gives a full flavor to most beers you may not get, if they're over filtered, another one of those balancing acts that those workers of brewing magic deal with. I started off with a Amber lager, full tasting with the crispness of a lager, a flavorful change from the usual amber ales. The place had a cool old dudes vibes due to all the memorabilia and the old van in the shop, but definitely wasn't just an old dudes place, as a few of the younger crowd was enjoying a brew while working remote. Plan on a return trip on a weekend to check out the weekend vibe, try the food truck, and more of their tasty unfiltered beers. I also tried their Red Ale, which was also robustly flavored and went down smoothly. Gotta love those reds! A fun stop while passing through or coming back from some of the beautiful hikes in the area. Definitely have their own style and niche well done. Happy Yelping and Cheers!

The brews here? **Impeccable.** The balance of flavors, the craftsmanship, the sheer dedication poured into every pint--this is the kind of beer that **rewires your brain chemistry**, rendering all lesser beverages obsolete. The food? **Legendary.** A burger so impossibly juicy it deserves its own Netflix documentary. Fries that crunch with a level of precision that suggests **some sort of alchemical wizardry is at play**. Each dish is not just **prepared**--it is **engineered**, designed for maximum indulgence and unrestrained joy. The staff? **Incredible.** Friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about their craft. Every conversation with them feels like a TED Talk on the art of brewing, and yet **somehow more engaging**. And yet--**AND YET**--let us address the single most inexplicable contradiction in human history: **LUMBER HOUSE BREWERY IS LOCATED IN A CONCRETE TILT-UP BUILDING.** Read that again. Slowly. Let it sink in. Lumber House Brewery--the very name **evokes images of rustic timber lodges**, cozy wood-paneled beer halls, the scent of sawdust mingling with the comforting aroma of freshly poured stouts. You hear "Lumber House," and you **expect** beams, planks, a structure that whispers of heritage, craftsmanship, and the sturdy embrace of dimensional lumber. But no. **Concrete.** Gray, impersonal, **unapologetically industrial concrete**. Tilted up like some sort of affront to the very concept of its name. It is an irony so stark, so **mercilessly hilarious**, that one cannot help but admire the sheer audacity of it. This is not just **a choice**--this is a **statement**, a deliberate defiance of expectations, an architectural plot twist so profound it rivals the greatest mysteries of our time. Could they have constructed a grand wooden brewery, rich in timber and nostalgic warmth? Absolutely. But instead, they **rebelled**. They chose strength over sentiment, functionality over theme, and in doing so, they **cemented--literally and figuratively--their place in history**. And somehow? **It works.** So go. Step into Lumber House Brewery's **glorious contradiction**, revel in the fact that **despite its lack of lumber**, it delivers one of the **most unforgettable** brewery experiences imaginable. Five stars. And a **moment of stunned silence for the irony**.

Second time here and both times it's been after a hike. They are located in the back of a…read morerelatively unassuming business center with plenty of parking. It's not a huge place but they have plenty of seating and comfortable brewery ambiance. Food and beer is ordered at the bar and they bring the food to wherever you're sitting. We were on a bit of time crunch and just grabbed seats at the bar. Since it was an in between meal period, they weren't super busy which was perfect. We both ordered the burger special which was a bacon bleu burger which comes with waffle fries. The waffles fries are fantastic, and an underrated fry choice, IMO. They were hot and crispy. Burgers were loaded but the knock on them was that they were over cooked for both my wife and I, while also being small compared to the bun. Overall, the flavor was still good and along with good beers (we got the Kolsch & Pale Ale) it was a 4 star experience. When we were getting ready to leave, a guy at the end of the bar received his pretzel order and it looked delicious. Will definitely come back and try that next time!

This brewery is over by Lake Tapps but even though you can't get a view of the lake from where the tasting room is it's still a lot of fun. We went and ordered in a modular structure and then enjoyed our beer outside but with lots and sturdy canopies in case it rained. I had two beers here. One was the Thrasher IPA which had a nice bite to it but nothing too "off the chain". Dark Days was the other beer I had which was a fine brown ale that I ordered which proved to be enjoyable. This brewery is a little way out of Bonney Lake but the outing is worth it!

Several dining tables are available inside and it looks like outdoor seating is available in nice weather. A few parking spots are available by the entrance with most off to the side of the building. On the day of our visit the bartender was holding down the fort, but as it was half an hour past opening and no one was there, it wasn't a taxing job. We chatted a bit and found game days often see a big crowd here. Depending on the time of the game. (Black Diamond is a bit of a sleepy town.) Full bar includes wine and several draft beer options. Check their web page for Happy Hour specials and Trivia night info. The menu offers a variety of food option. A few Polish food choices along with other items such as hotdogs, wings, calamari, burgers, chicken Ceasar salad, etc. This is a very nice venue. The bartender was pleasant and very easy to chat with. They even suggested some sightseeing and hiking options we may like nearby. The food quality was good and the restaurant clean.

I sauntered in like a champion heifer entering the show ring, only to find the bar manager evaluating tap lines with the same precision as a certified livestock judge at the World Dairy Expo. The draft list is organized by breed characteristics - I mean, beer styles - with scoring cards that would make the American Dairy Science Association blush. The head bartender, a former 4-H Grand Champion (dairy cattle division), approaches each pour with the same dedication she once showed while preparing her prize-winning Jersey for the Supreme Champion competition. She inspects each glass with the thoroughness of a udder examination at the World Beef Expo. Their flight paddle, "The Grand Champion," arrives presented on a bed of cedar shavings (food-grade, obviously) that would make any show barn proud. Each beer is scored on a point system suspiciously similar to the Holstein Association USA's Linear Classification Program - with categories like "Body Depth" and "Dairy Form" replaced with "Head Retention" and "Hop Expression." The beer garden has been sectioned off like a livestock pavilion, with different areas designated for various beer styles. I witnessed a heated debate about proper beer classification that rivaled the intensity of the Brown Swiss Canton Show's judge's deliberation. A grizzled regular, known only as "The Cattle Whisperer," holds court at the corner table, evaluating each patron's beer selection like he's judging dairy cow confirmation. "Nice topline on that IPA," he'll mutter while taking detailed notes in what appears to be an official American Angus Association scorecard. Monthly "Show & Tell" competitions require customers to present their beers with the same poise and professionalism as a youth showmanship class. Points are deducted for improper hand position on the glass and failure to maintain eye contact with the judge. Five stars? Please. This place earns the Supreme Champion banner and Best of Show rosette! P.S. If you hear someone shout "SWITCH LEADS!" they're not talking about show ring directions - it's actually the signal for a tap rotation. The staff performs the change with the coordinated precision of a champion dairy fitting team. P.P.S. The bathroom keys are attached to show halters, and you must demonstrate proper showmanship techniques to be deemed worthy. The bouncer is a certified livestock judge, and he's not impressed by your amateur handling skills. P.P.P.S. Legend says that on competition nights, the ghost of a legendary dairy cattle judge appears to evaluate the beer selection. Flights have been found mysteriously rearranged in perfect showmanship formation. P.P.P.P.S. Their specialty cask ale program has won more ribbons than a champion Guernsey at the World Dairy Expo, and they display them with the same pride as a multi-generational dairy farm's trophy case.

Let me tell you about my server, the absolute legend who conquered his two-pack-a-day habit through the revolutionary "Brisket Smoke Immersion Protocol." This hero of modern medicine discovered that 60 minutes of face-time with oak-smoked brisket vapors carries the same satisfaction as 47 cigarettes, but with the added benefit of making your hair smell like victory. "The trick," he'll tell you while delivering a plate of burnt ends, "is to position yourself exactly 7.3 inches from the top rack, where the smoke density hits that sweet spot between 'spiritual awakening' and 'temporary meat blindness.'" He tracked his progress in a leather-bound journal that's now permanently infused with smoky goodness. Day 1 entry: "Visibility limited, meat particles adhering to eyebrows." Day 15: "Have begun to communicate telepathically with the brisket. It speaks of great wisdom." Day 30: "I am become smoke, destroyer of cravings." The restaurant had to install a special timer just for these sessions. They call it the "Meat Meditation Chamber," and there's now a waiting list of people trying to kick various habits through strategic smoke exposure. One guy supposedly gave up energy drinks by huffing pulled pork vapors for three weeks straight. The best part? While sharing his journey to smoke-based enlightenment, he'll serve you the most transcendent BBQ this side of the astral plane. The brisket doesn't just fall apart--it voluntarily deconstructs itself out of respect for your taste buds. The ribs have converted more vegetarians than a bacon-scented hypnosis podcast. Five stars. Would absolutely sit through another 45-minute explanation of how the smoke molecules restructured his DNA while demolishing a plate of burnt ends again. Just don't ask about the time he accidentally fell asleep in there and woke up speaking fluent Memphis-style BBQ. P.S. They're thinking about bottling the smoke as a cologne. There's already a pre-order list.
