This thrift store made a weekend visit in late 2019 more special…read more Not familiar with thrifting, I was eager to show my partner the ropes and the joy of thrift store shopping. It just so happens that on the day we visited, the store had a small setup of free hot apple cider and little sandwich cookies available for shoppers. This gave us a special glimpse of Minnesota hospitality and set things off on a great foot on a very chilly day! We looked through Christmas decorations and old games and I was thankful to find an excellent prank hallmark ornament for my sister and a nostalgic hallmark ornament for myself--a little mouse atop a spool of thread, sewing popcorn kernels for a Christmas garland. We looked at a variety of scarves and coats and then found a cute, new/barely-used, button-up shirt with little mustaches for my partner. All of this--delicious hot cider, Christmas and childhood nostalgia, easily transported "souvenirs" from our visit to Minnesota, and a crisp new shirt for my partner--all for less than $10 made for a pretty great first-time thrifting experience and a memorable stop on the trip for me!

The coffee is great and the staff is incredibly kind and welcoming. The space itself is open, spacious, and modern but still has that cozy, comforting feel you want when you're up north. They also have a really nice selection of products for sale, almost like a small market. You can grab food and drinks to go, along with cabin essentials and other fun items. This is just a great spot to stop for coffee and browse a bit. A really great addition to the area and such a fun little place to visit.

After discovering Cheese Brothers online, I was excited to try this melty low-carb snack at home…read more It was easy to prepare, just fried it in a pan over low-medium heat. Though small in size (4x6) and not as melty as I thought it would be (more breadlike), the golden baked bliss was savory and buttery and sinfully good. As a cheese fanatic, both the original flavor and italian were irresistible. But they do have a minimum order amount to get a package shipped out, so I ordered the garlic flavor too, which I have yet to try. Also got a block of 8-year-aged cheddar and yodel parmesan gruyere, both on the house. Not a bad deal at all. The delivery process was smooth and professional as well.

Our first time to The Dalles House Restaurant. We stopped in for lunch on a Saturday afternoon…read more When you enter through the front door, you enter into a large bar that looks into a beautiful courtyard. I noticed the bar has a stage for bands and room for a dance floor. As we walked in, the bartender asked if we were there for lunch at the supper club and walked us through the restaurant entrance to a hostess stand. The supper club is spacious with white tablecloths and old fashioned velvet chairs. It also looks out to the beautiful courtyard. Our server was Robyn who was very pleasant and attentive. We ordered cocktails to start. A Black Cherry Old Fashioned and a Raspberry Mojito. Both were under $10 and delicious. For lunch, I ordered the Dalles House Burger; Hand pattied burger with two cheeses, bacon, onion, lettuce, tomato, and thousand island dressing on the side $17.99. The flavors were good but I asked for it to be cooked to medium temperature and it was very well done. Disappointing. The fries were hot and crispy. My husband ordered the Fish Tacos. Three soft flour tortillas filled with crispy fried white fish, shredded cabbage, fresh pico de gallo, and a zesty cilantro lime aioli. Served with tortilla chips, sour cream, and salsa $17.99. He said the tacos were tasty but the tortilla chips tasted store bought. Despite my burger being overcooked, we did have a nice experience. We would like to try it again but for dinner.

We decided to meet for lunch and it was a very enjoyable experience. Robyn was our server - she was attentive and even took a moment to take our picture. I had the turkey BLT and my husband had the fish tacos. I liked the turkey BLT was in a spinach wrap- very tasty and a good sized portion. The fries were tasty too. Husband really enjoyed the fish tacos- he was a plate cleaner lol The view is pretty, you are not rushed, so it was an enjoyable afternoon. They do have a more casual bar area and it was quite busy. We also noted a pretty large banquet space too (200 people) Total bill for 4 meals and 4 drinks was $114. The brandy old fashioned's were $9 each and the margaritas were $12 each. We are now on a mission to try all the supper clubs!
