Marblemount Diner was exactly what we were looking for/desperately needed after a quick trip up from Bellingham, WA to the North Cascades National Park. We wanted something with a diverse lineup for lunch, and found it here. First off, their cheese curds hit. And hit good. The flavoring was so on point and the curds were so freshly fried that we just couldn't help but make that face like "dammmn" after every bite. It was accompanied by some delicious marinara too. Next, I had the spicy cheeseburger because I wanted something heavy - they made it extra spicy (as requested) and the flavor was so on point I couldn't help but smile. My wife's fried clam strips were excellent too. Very fresh and the handcut fries didn't hurt. We came in thinking we'd do some of the fresh fruit pie, and wanted to, but the portions were so heavy that we couldn't even consider the idea after all that good eating. It was a great experience overall, and would definitely recommend. read more

Peanut butter, bacon and pickles on a burger. What kind of inspired insanity is this. Stopped in there on our way to Winthrop. Homemade pies and hand cut fries sign pulled me in. Who can resist homemade Pie!?! Tja5 is where our adventure started. A fresh slice of homemade BlackBerry pie ala mode as an appetizer. Delicious blackberry filling with a light crust. We got a slice that was a bit dark, not my preference, and a bit on the small side for the price, but still a tasty way to start lunch. I split it with my husband which was a good thing because the the peanut butter, pickle and bacon burger came out. Holy Smokes! Dripping with PB goodness this is a hard burger to put down. A heaping side of fries helped mop up all the goodness that dripped into my plate. My husband had the ruben, which was just as mouthwatering. Pro tip: if you like garlic get the hand cut fries with garlic. I think they are a bit extra but worth it. Help support this great local diner next time you're anywhere near marblemount. read more

Alright...for those who know me...a diner with comfort food??? Stop. Done. 5 stars!! Lol, yes, I'm guilty. I'm a sucker! Here I was....after spending an entire day hiking wonderful Cascade Pass Trail...to then arrive here at Marblemount Diner at the end of the day....this was the perfect ending in having a home cooked hearty meal! I had just completed almost 10 miles of strenuous hiking down the road at North Cascades National Park. I then drove through this tiny town of Marblemount. And...I had read that Marblemount Diner was highly recommended. I was excited to try this place. When I stopped on by here back in August of this year, 2020 (during the pandemic) it was about 5pm - Thursday and the restaurant was empty. Lol, I guess I was just grateful they were open. But...after being tired from venturing all around on a cold and dreary day...I was craving simple, basic all-American food, and Marblemount Diner delivered with success. From the appearance on the outside of the restaurant, the diner certainly exuded a small, rustic, "mom and pop" type of feel...just the way I like em. I was greeted friendly and sat down immediately. Inside the restaurant...it had a cozy setting decorated with hometown pictures, lots of homages dedicated to being in the outdoors and among nature...and a very quaint "cabin-esque" ambiance set within the quiet mountain town of Marblemount. The menu was simple and basic, not too many options...but I sort of prefered it that way. Just stick to what's good. They had a section of... - Sandwiches - Fried Fish and Chicken - Salads - Kid's Meals - Beverages and Alcoholic Beverages - Desserts. That was it. So for me...I'm easy and can eat anything, and especially since I had built up a huge appetite, I had no issues finding something. I chose the Mushroom Burger - "with sauteed mushrooms dripping in Monterey Jack cheese" for $14.75. The burger also came with fries, lettuce, tomato, onions and a pickle in a basket. I also added a fountain soda. The mushroom burger was pretty big in size and with the fries...it was all quite fulfilling and "hit the spot" satisfying my hiker hunger, lol. Eventually, a little later during my time here the restaurant started filling up. Btw, tables were spread out so everyone was more than 6 feet apart. While eating my meal, I looked back on my photos from the day. I genuinely enjoyed taking my time eating, relaxing, and reflecting on my hiking while digging into a fresh hamburger all within this quiet little diner setting. Had I been visiting and staying in the town of Marblemount longer, I'd happily return to this diner. But just overall, I was enthusiastic about having the chance to end my day here at Marblemount Diner. Within the surroundings of the mountains of North Cascades National Park, for me...it didn't get any better than this! read more

There are limited options close to North Cascade National Park. With COVID still spreading, we were hesitant to dine in but they were sweet to not only allow takeout but also were able to let my husband transact outside (our youngest due to an underlying health condition is high risk for COVID). We were blown away by how good the food was! We all got burgers with fries. The burgers were good and loved the hamburger buns and how fresh the onions, tomato, and lettuce were with it. The fries were scrumptious and we inhaled them too quickly. Our family of four also shared an apple pie slice for dessert. If we lived closer to here (as opposed to two hours away) we would be heading here much more often! read more

Marblemount Diner - Deluxe Burgers - Diners Near Me - Marblemount, Washington

My boyfriend and I stopped here for dinner on the way to Tonasket. We arrived around 5:30pm on a Friday. There were a few other patrons there. We had no trouble placing a carry out order with the friendly woman up front. The time we waited for our food was reasonable. My boyfriend got one of the burgers with the garlic Parmesan fries. I went with the grilled chicken breast sandwich with sweet potato fries. We also decided to share a piece of blueberry cream pie. The burger was solid, as was the pie. The sweet potato fries were pretty good, but it was clear that they weren't made fresh. The garlic on the fries was a little burnt, so that made it slightly bitter. My chicken was tough and unseasoned. I wish I had gone for a burger, but I had steak earlier in the day, so I was trying to stay away from beef. This was really 3.5 stars rounded up to 4 thanks to good service, the burger, and the pie. read more

COVID-19 dine-in experience: We were looking for a spot for a late lunch at saw Marblemount Diner on the side of the road, so we decided to stop by. The inside felt like homey like an old cabin. The menu wasn't too extensive, full of sandwiches, burgers, and some fried seafood options. I thought it was a tad pricey with most meals being $14-$18. I wasn't super hungry so my mom and I shared the Philly cheesesteak sandwich and subbed onion rings instead of fries. It was the perfect amount of food! I also liked how the food was very hot when we got it. If I had been more hungry, I definitely would've wanted a milkshake or slice of pie! My only complaint was that we were seated in a booth sandwiched between two other booths. There was a hanging plastic barrier between the the booths, but I would've rather sat further away from other people. read more

Marblemount Diner - Half of a philly cheese steak sandwich + onion rings - Diners Near Me - Marblemount, Washington

Rural WA state (or any state) diner options don't get any better than this. The diner is homey and decorated with lots of local tchotchkes, and servers made us feel like part of the family. Menu is extensive with tons of options from burgers to seafood, salads and plenty of sweet treats like homemade pies and milkshakes. What made this diner stand out for me was that every single thing I ate tasted on point. The clam strip basket featured a generous portion of juicy, tangy strips and well seasoned fries. My companion's fried halibut was light & perfectly crisp, and the coleslaw side tasted divine (though personal preference note--the blue cheese topping was unnecessary). We shared a vanilla malt, superbly creamy and thick, although there are many other flavors to enjoy. Finally, the multi-berry pie dessert was a standout, overflowing with succulent berries atop a light and flaky homemade crust, richly enrobed with decadent portions of both ice cream & whip cream. Whether you're headed into the Cascades for an adventure or in need of a refuel after a long day of exploring, Marblemount Diner is the place to go! read more

One of two restaurants open in Marblemount when I visited in August of 2021. Actually came here twice looking for some dessert after a long day of hiking, only found it one day as their pies sell out quick. Food: I only had a slice of their berry apple crumble pie and a glass of milk. Ask them to heat it up for you and it is very tasty pie without being overwhelmingly sweet. They have typical diner food so lots of burgers and sandwiches at a slightly cheaper price than across the street. They have a long beer list for a diner. Service: Like I said I went twice looking for pie. I was not expecting them to run out of every type of pie, especially after having signs advertising them. Also during my first visit I went to order a beer and I decided to ask my waitress for a suggestion since I am unfamiliar with the local brews, she just shrugged and said I don't know. On my second visit I asked the same waitress for a recommendation on the kinds of pies they had, same response. C'mon! Location: Casual diner vibe inside and back patio seating. Plenty of parking out front and right off the main road. read more

Marblemount Diner - Berry Apple Crumble Pie - Diners Near Me - Marblemount, Washington

I wasn't expecting much for food options so close to the North Cascades, but I was very pleasantly surprised by the quality of food at this diner. My friend and I got takeout and ate our food back at our inn. Neither of us were too hungry, so we ordered some light snacks rather than a hearty meal. The soup of the day was chicken and wild rice cream soup ($6.50 for a bowl). I've never had this soup before but it was nice and creamy with the perfect amount of spice. My friend also got the hummus and naan dip ($9.50) which he really enjoyed, but I didn't eat it as I wanted something hot. My favorite part of the meal was their pie. I had a slice of their three berry pie ($5.25 a slice), and it was absolutely delicious. It's their most popular pie according to the server. The berry filling was almost an inch thick and was the perfect blend of sweet and tart. So good! read more

They are only open Friday, Saturday & Sunday for lunch and dinner. We stopped by for lunch after hiking in the Cascades. I highly recommend getting the Reuben sandwich on Marbled Rye bread. It has to be one of the best Reuben sandwiches I have had in a long time. Fresh corned beef, 2 slices melted Swiss and it seemed to me like homemade sauerkraut. Delicious. My husband had the Crackling Rose, ( French Dip with bacon and jalapeños) he said it was good. It was one of the most expensive lunches we've had in a while, 2 sandwiches w/fries, 1 soda & 2 pieces of pie, with tip, came to $71.00. Well worth it, I go back there, just for that Reuben alone! read more

Marblemount Diner - a menu for a smoothie - Diners Near Me - Marblemount, Washington

Needed some lunch after visiting the North Cascades National Park and I'm glad we stumbled on this little restaurant! They were SUPER busy on a Saturday in the middle of summer even though it was pretty late for lunch- probably around 3pm. So we did have to wait awhile but since it's one of the few spots outside the national park, we weren't surprised. One of the staff members really loved our pups & we were waiting outside for our takeout and she said next time we can sit out in their back patio. She even brought a little bowl of water while we waited. Deluxe burger was big and had a ton of fries on the side. Also got a yummy milkshake. read more

No frills. Typical menu. Standard diner joint. Definitely the place to be. Everyone comes here. The staff know how to work it and they do a really great job. I was amazed to see they offer gluten-free buns for their burgers and some veggie burger options. The far-reaching wellness diet phenomenon has officially hit the cascades, folks. Food was good. Fries were soggy. Get some pie before you go. read more

Great place for a meal. I was traveling with a toddler and my wife. The waitress was very friendly and she even fetched a couple of toy cars for my kid to play with. We ordered a Golden Harvest appetizer and it was sufficient for 2-3 adults as an appetizer. We ordered South of the Border burger. It was really delicious and slightly spicy which we really enjoyed. We also had the Southern fried steak sandwich. I felt it could have done with some dressing or a sauce. It felt a bit dry. The best part was a slice of their homemade blueberry pie. Loved it so much we stopped on our way back home to get another slice. read more

There aren't many options in Marblemount, and it's not the type of town you spend multiple days in... The food was average, but the server was polite. There are hummingbird feeders alone are worth the visit, sit by a window. I felt the food was way overpriced. Supply and demand.... There are 3 restaurants on the way into a national park. This is your best option, and they know it. read more

This was an oasis after hiking at the North Cascades National Park. It's apparently a seasonal business, as they weren't open the last time I was in town in early spring, but the joint was hopping this time. Really good food choices (I loved the chicken cordon bleu sandwich) as well as a huge selection of shakes (huckleberry, pina colada and more). We had no room to try one of their famous pies. A return visit is sorely needed. read more

Marblemount Diner - Chicken cordon bleu sandwich. Yummy and huge. - Diners Near Me - Marblemount, Washington

A classic small town diner in Marblemount. If your on Hwy 20 heading to or from the North Cascades National Park you will breeze through this little town along the Skagit River. It has the old diner feel and small town hospitality, the menu is typical American with burgers at their centerpiece. Some of the selections are quite unique such as the orbit butter and pickle burger, but I opted for the South of the border burger. We sat outside on the patio on a mild afternoon, the service was good and food came out pretty quick. The food was hot and met expectations, but nothing stood out, a decent choice in an area with limited options. read more

After an only adequate breakfast elsewhere in town, we found an excellent breakfast here. Country potatoes actually cooked and not just touched onto the griddle, a good omelet and well-done French toast. It's a pity that they are only open for breakfast on Saturday and Sunday read more

This is a cute little place with good food, and GREAT pies. We had a good meal and our waitress was very friendly and helpful. And the patio where we sat out back was very pleasant. But, I honestly can't remember much about the food, because of the dessert. Each day the pies are apparently different, but if the one we had was any indication they are terrific. There are the usual standards, but also some really interesting options. The one we had was a berry/custard pie which was superb. If you are in the area--STOP for pie. read more

Found this diner in while going to a national park! They had a few vegetarian and vegan options. Our server was very nice! She said that for the veggie burger they have two types of patty one was mushroom one and the other was "vegetarian" burger. We opted for the second one. It was amazing! The fries were awesome too! They make really good milkshakes which were made from real ingredients and not artificial flavors. The only downside was it was a little pricy for a diner. But, it was totally worth it! Would definitely visit again! read more

Killer farking pies! Top 3 in my life for sure and everything else was just right too. We were so happy to discover this place. Quaint, great genuine service and did I mention the pies? (I also had one of the best BLTs in my life). Over 2 visits we tried 4 different pies. The regular diner food is nothing gourmet, but just plain good. We had gone to aplce around the way and mistkane though it was this place and had pretty bad service and they told us they had pie 3 times and then when we fiihed our light meals (to save room for pis of course),.. they had none. They didn't run out, they just had none to start with despite a big sign out front. Once we saw this place we knew we had made a mistake and in complete contrast had a young guy serve that was spot on, funny, and knew his stuff,.. top notch service. read more

Last time I ate at Marblemount Diner was well before the pandemic (and before I started doing Yelp check-ins), several years ago. Back then it was a definite winner. (See my previous review, using the "Read more" button, for my impressions from back then. I may recommend it again after a vaccine is widely available.) However, our most recent visit (August 29, about 3:30 pm) was frustrating. There's a pandemic, and we don't want to eat indoors. We haven't eaten at a restaurant in months, and the last time I ate indoors I ended up with a cough. It turned out to be just a cold, and only lasted a couple of days. But it reminded me that we need to be careful. Since it's been a long time, and we liked Marblemount Diner last time we were there, we wanted to give it a try. I requested outdoor seating for our party of three. The plastic partitions between their booths were reassuring, and the reduced seating capacity reduces risk too. But it was a nice day, and outdoors is a whole lot safer than indoors, so I asked about outdoor seating. The hostess said that outdoor seating was reserved for parties of five or more, or people with dogs. I was a bit puzzled by the rule, and the way she said it, and asked for more details. She pulled down her mask for emphasis, and repeated that outdoor seating was reserved for parties of five or more, because those parties can't be seated indoors. And she added, "Because the governor says so." I was fine with the party of five rule. It's a tough time for restaurants, and they need to maximize their use of the seating they have. But pulling down the mask for emphasis? And telling me that they're following the rules because they're the rules, rather than for the safety of their employees and customers? Not good. Also, looking up their menu on-line, I see that their prices are a lot higher now. Given that these are tough times for restaurants, and that the food is good and made from premium ingredients, I don't blame them for that. (And I'm not counting that into my star rating) But it's a change from a few years ago. So rather than the four stars I gave them for our past visits, I'm knocking it down to a two-star "Meh. I've experienced better." We're dealing with a pandemic, and restaurants should be treating health regulations as important safety guidelines, not inconvenient "because the governor says so" rules. read more

We were super hungry and were manifesting a diner since we had no service on the cascade scenic highway. Stoked to see this diner! Unfortunately they only serve breakfast on the weekends! They seemed short staffed. It was a bit expensive for the portion size. We got a Caesar salad.. it was good but really just the plate was big not so much the portion of salad. For $8.25 you are only given 6 pieces of fried pickles.... pretty pricey and they weren't that great. We did really love the garlic cheese curds, which were around $9 or so. We did enjoy the outdoor seating. But probably will not come back for the food. Two appetizers, salad and coffee came to over $35 with tip read more

We were the first ones in on a Sunday. The Diner is nice and we were seated at a table big enough for 10 people. We ordered a bunch of burgers, soup of the day, milkshakes and roasted garlic bread. The burgers were pretty good, the soup and milkshakes were nice. The roasted garlic bread was not great. Not sure if the balsamic was overpowering, or something else. The service was quick, friendly and courteous. read more

I tried another restaurant my first night in Marblemount, mainly because staying at their inn got me a discount, but it was nothing to write home about. Went to the Marblemount Diner tonight and was astounded at the difference! Homemade food including hand cut fries. Friendly service and a great beer recommendation.

ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE SERVICE! We were made to wait for over an hour for a simple order. My friends and I ordered four sandwiches. We went for simple orders since we were on a tight schedule in between hikes. Almost an hour passed and our food was still not out. Multiple tables around us got occupied, served, and cleared while we were still waiting for our orders. When we finally asked our waiter, we were told she forgot to put in our orders! She assured us our food will be out in 10 minutes and we will get a 10% discount. 15 mins later and our food was still not out. When asked again, the waiter explained that they had just two cooks and we just have to wait for our turn. She was throwing shade like it's our fault for being so impatient. The food was passable, the pies were cold. Our group felt very uncomfortable in this establishment. The service was not warm. Our time was not valued. I will not recommend this place to anyone. read more

This was a great place to stop after a busy day of hiking. It was also excellent for breakfast the next day before we hiked some more. The food is all freshly-made, and the staff is super friendly and welcoming. We can attest that the burgers, fries, hummus plate, pie, biscuits and gravy and huevos rancheros are all delicious. The decor is cute, too, with wooden booths, gingham curtains, and humming bird feeders hung outside the windows. A little gem, for sure! read more

Marblemount Diner - Peanut Butter Bacon Pickle Burger - Diners Near Me - Marblemount, Washington

I would give this zero stars if I could. This experience literally could not have been more awful. Upon entering, the first thing I noticed was the prices. I am from New York, and I am used to New York prices. These prices made New York seem cheap. I honestly don't know how people afford to eat here, especially for the quantity of food. It was not worth it, not at all. My order was wrong, which was a grilled cheese. We told the waitress we wanted vegetarian options before, yet it was brought out with ham. I understand things happen, but I don't know what to say. Not to mention, the wait for the food was very long. It just wasn't worth the wait at all. In summation, if you want somewhere to eat close to the national park, do yourself a favor and drive the extra 40 minutes to the next town. I wasn't even sure whether to add this, but when we told them we are vegetarian and would like it without ham, the woman took the sandwich with her bare hands and put it on an empty tray. This is extremely unprofessional, unsanitary, and frankly, shocking, ESPECIALLY during a pandemic. This was just awful. read more
