We visited Packwood Brewing Co. on a Friday night and it was a vibe! The patio was pretty busy, but…read morenot packed, with a lively ambiance and a great live music performer. We went inside to order, and the bartender was super helpful in helping me choose a drink. They had two hard ciders available and he actually recommended I try a blend of the two to get the huckleberry flavor with less sweetness. I absolutely loved it! We also ordered Chips & Guacamole, which were solid. The highlight of our visit was when a deer wandered into the patio area. It really riled up the dogs and kids, but was such a cool experience otherwise. My friend later ordered some tacos, which she said were tasty, and they even had an ice cream stand on the premises. Overall, I really liked Packwood Brewing!

We got a pleasant surprise and we always love these unexpected surprises like this when on our travels. Morton is a good place to have a brewery as it gets enough traffic and tourism that one could make a go of it here. I got their Grassy Mountain Wheat which was very good! I always like getting a good wheat beer and this was a good one! Steve tried a different beer and that was good too. The folks that run the place are really friendly and a pleasure to chat with.

This place is serving gas-station-level food at a much higher price, but the food was honestly the…read moreleast of my concerns. The service was absolutely terrible. I'm 18, so I obviously cannot drink alcohol. I ordered food and waited for service, but apparently the only way to actually get someone's attention is to walk over to the bar yourself. When I went over there trying to get help with my order, I was yelled at and made into a scene by one of the servers. All I wanted was the food I had already ordered. I understand that working in food service can be exhausting. I'm 18 and have worked as a server myself. I know there are bad days, difficult customers, and times when you simply don't feel like smiling. But when you're working with the public, basic courtesy and professionalism still matter. You don't have to love your job every second, but you should at least treat people with respect. What makes this especially frustrating is that this is a small town that gets a huge amount of tourism from people visiting Mount Rainier. This restaurant has an opportunity to leave visitors with a great impression of the area, and instead the experience I had was rude, disorganized, and unnecessarily hostile. I really hope management sees this review and takes it seriously. The food needs improvement, but the service needs even more attention. Train your staff, communicate with customers, and treat people like human beings. That shouldn't be too much to ask.

It was magical to come visit Washington for a weekend getaway and it was even more magical finding a gem like this to spend some time and eat good food.

Wow!!!!! I cannot…read morebelieve such a place could exist in Washington State!!!! Another state, yes. Washington State it is hard to believe! We came for the Night Market but only made it to the tail end. So we only had an hour. We were going to order food but they had a sign saying there is an hour wait. We just had drinks instead. The layout is fantastic. They have streams and ponds running through. Not to mention plenty of outdoor seating with fire pits and wood framed shade canopies. It was fun walking through the patio area exploring. Note!!!! Bring quarters to feed the koi!!!!!! I can't wait to come here again!!!!!

Everything was solid, so definitely would come back.

If you're not familiar with the place, driving up their access road might make you wonder if you're at the right location. From the road, there's no good indication this is a brewery/brewpub.

Lovely country feel and very quiet and serene. The senior group was there for their gathering, as well as the young families enjoying the outdoor setting. Service was great. Very friendly. Engaging and offering some samples of the local brews. Oh, we also really enjoyed the Cajun Calamari. Nice amount of spice, ample serving size, quite good! Next time I hope it's not so smoky out.

The beers on offer vary from clean and crisp pilsners and Kölsch to deep and flavorful stouts and IPAs. My favorite things are that they are dog friendly, let you bring in you own food, and have really good tasting beer blends that add extra flavor and options. They also serve beer, have three TVs that are playing the most popular games, and often partner with the community to host events like book club meetups, paint notes, fundraisers, and parties. For those not beer inclined, they have 2-3 wines, local ciders, and house-made seltzers. They are kid friendly too and have various board games to play to keep entertained. Really they have everything to make you feel right at home.

Well... we finally did it... and shame on us for waiting so long. Such a very cool place and the vibe was great. An open concept inside, with a couple spots outdoors as you enter inside. My wife and I decided to split our meals and we ended up ordering the Chicken Tinga Street Tacos, as well as, a platter of Chicken Nachos. Both very delicious and the cilantro is simply supreme on this! The radishes was a nice touch, with some sauce over corn tortillas with that Cotiga cheese. I would prefer flour, but I'll take it! We also had the Saison which was light, a bit dry, crisp and sort of lemony. All in all, we enjoyed ourselves and the neighboring tables. Had some good conversations with local folks. As always, enjoy and Happy Mule Elking!

This is the most underrated winery I've ever come across in 10+ years…read more We've done wine tours in Napa, Sonoma, Portland, NY and PA (oh and bainsbridge island) and honestly you cannot find wine like this in the US. As a red wine lover who has been getting heart burn after one sip of most reds, this winery has exceeded my expectations. I never noticed that wine in Europe isn't just better it's also better for you because they don't add tannens or sulfates. It's a few hours after an only red wine tasting and I still don't have any heart burn. So our original plan was to go to the more commercial winery's after hiking Mt Rainier but the hike took longer than expected so we found a winery closer and we are so glad we did. Jolie and Clay are the sweetest people and Jolie told us so much about wine in general. One of my favorite tastings ever! Clay is a veteran who was stationed in Germany and learned to make wine from a local. All their wine is 18% and more fruity because they don't add all the extra stuff. They make a lot of unique stuff too (like wine from jalapeños and other fruits as well). Really not sure why more winery's don't do this. Anyway if you are on your way back to Seattle from Mount Rainier do not miss stopping by. We walked away with two cases (so affordable too) but they don't ship so you'll have to find a way to get it home (they were so thoughtful to get us a few boxes to help with shipping).

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.
