Our daughter and I were visiting the area for a concert and needed a casual restaurant that had good basic food. This was it. Nothing special, but the visit was good. Our daughter had the bacon cheeseburger, but no bacon as they were out of it. It was Very good and the accompanying tator tots were perfectly crisp and flavorful. I had the Burger Dip. It was okay. It needed mayonnaise or some sauce on it. They did provide a dip to dunk it, but it was kind of flavorless. The fries were hot and crisp. and the requested tartar sauce was excellent. Love the M&M's that came with the meals. Service was okay. You have to order at the counter, but they were quick and brought the food to the table. read more

Made the west to East drive from Gif Harbor to Spokane. Couldn't linger long over lunch as we had dogs with us waiting in the car (cool weather and we checked on them in shifts, don't worry). Saw a favorable review when we were very close, so we tried it. Tiny sign over the door with the name. Very basic interior, but the food was pretty good. Grilled chicken salad, crispy chicken sandwich, and cup of clam chowder consumed by our group. As a quick traveler's stopover, we all gave it a thumbs up. read more

Great biscuits and gravy!! Scrambled eggs cooked perfectly! I will be coming back when I come through for now on.

On a road trip and came here because of the 4 star review and reviewing other restaurants along the way. This is not a 4 star quality place. You order at the counter, tip is asked for when you pay, not after service (unless you decline and pay cash). We were given paper cups and told to help ourselves to the water. Served on paper plates and plastic forks we on the table. No other utensils offered. Bacon was underdone, but everything else was ok. Nothing great, just tasted like something you cook at home. However, huge amount of grease left on plate. I only finished my meal because it wasn't the worst, was edible, and I payed $12 for it. My son said his biscuit and gravy was ok and my dad said his bacon omelet was the worst he's ever had (whole strips of undercooked and uncut bacon). I would not go here again. read more

Great food- amazing lunch and breakfast options. Stopped here on the way to Seattle and very thankful we did! Fun vibe in the cafe with tons of signatures on the walls read more

No one is wearing masks at this place. And they actually frown at people wearing masks. Food is okay. Coffee could be better. read more

Best breakfast food! My gosh pancakes are so good. And amazing sausage! One of those small town cafes that get overlooked. But is SO GOOD

Ok. Just Ok. Pancakes were good. Appreciate the hash browns were crisp and not soggy. Eggs tasted like margarine and the bacon is overly salty. Coffee wasn't drinkable. read more

Observations: no masks, obvious Republican leaning. I'm still sketchy about no masks but the two ladies were polite. The aesthetics were cool, lots of old album covers, historic photos, old hunting lodge signs from times gone by. You can write on the wall with a marker. This is where I observed trump/pence and pro-Culp writings. I'm not sure why politics have to make their way into a restaurant. But I'm in rural WA so I expect nothing less. I ordered a breakfast burrito and while it wasn't anything special, it was decent. I give them three stars bc it wasn't the best and definitely wasn't the worst. I appreciate the ladies being kind and the establishment being cool. I would recommend. read more

In search for food after a long weekend at the Gorge amphitheater. You need to go here. Trust me on this, it's exactly what you are looking for. There's also many signatures all over the wall of the restaurant dating back years that this place is very much frequented after concerts and festivals. Don't be fooled by your gps, that place that doesn't look like a restaurant w a big tall sign.... yes, that's it. Walk in and go straight to the back to order and then find a seat. They will bring you your food when it's ready. They randomly have a cooler of beer in the middle of the place if cases of beer are what you are looking for to purchase. In the middle of nowhere, this place was golden. If I make it back to the gorge, I'll def stop back here for a bite. read more

A fun find for concert goers around this area. Solid, but simple breakfast food. I got the biscuits and gravy with a side of sausage and husband got the chicken fried steak (one of the best I've tried). Place is funky...you sign the walls, they sell bailing hooks, ya know, the usual. Really friendly service and a fun place to grab breakfast! read more

Awesome place to go inn the mornings or whenever. I use to go in the morning before work started across the street filling a cellar full of potatoes read more

Stopped in recently while driving from Spokane to Seattle. Friendly staff, food was decent. Use a marker to write on the walls. Overall I would recommend. read more

This place may not look like much from the outside, (in fact you can't even really tell this is the place from the outside). The food however is exceptional. The chicken fried steak was hand breaded cube steak on top of a creamy sausage gravy with big chunks of sausage. The eggs were cooked perfectly and the hash browns had a great crispness on the outside and firm in the middle. The pancakes where buttery and light. The service was pleasant and quick and the price was very reasonable. All in all I will stop here again if I'm on the 90. read more

Great hole on the wall cafe. Place is run by a single lady and she does a great job. I had chicken fried steak, eggs, hash browns & sourdough toast my wife had eggs, bacon, hashbrowns & a bisket. Everything was very good. The homemade strawberry jam was to die for. Loved the sausage gravey on the chicken fried steak. Had to correct Google maps as it had it in the wrong place. read more

Best breakfast around! I truly hope that people stop here for breakfast or lunch this Summer. Great service, love the self serve coffee! Come with a crowd service is fast, hot & hearty. We will be bringing all our guests here for breakfast for sure...keeping the kitchen clean at my house. You can even pick up beer to go. Make sure you stop by...no concerts this Summer we must keep these great food places going. read more

It's good truck stop dinner. If your ever in George Wa. Give it a try. They good breakfast burritos,Hot cakes

Stepping into the twilight zone... Go to Ellensburgs. After reading several reviews about the cafe we decided to give it a try as it was en route. An overwhelming air freshener hits you upon opening the door to a cold, dimly lit, quirky dining area. It felt like a scene from the Twilght zone... Not what I would call clean. The"help"was not really. Order at the small counter area, pour your own coffee from the urn... Folgers would put it to shame... don't order basted eggs, they don't make them and I don't recommend the over medium as they can't make them. Bacon tasted reheated but was pretty probably the cafes only saving Grace. We try to give little places like this the benefit of a doubt but they need to put the effort in to save themselves. read more

Scalehouse Cafe has the nicest staff and loyal customers! My friend and I arrived early to our camp site, so I googled restaurants near by, and this popped up. The sign may be a bit tricky because it says EAT and it's next to a fueling station for truck drivers. On the brown building itself it'll have the name of the restaurant. Going inside, you will see tables, writing on the walls from those who live near or just passing by. Walk a bit further, and the counter to order food is there. I had their biscuits and gravy. Their menu is simple and fit for any appetite. I also got a free coffee or beverage of my choice since it was my first time dining there. The nice lady who worked the counter then served us our food and asked about what event we were here for. She was so sweet! I would definitely recommend making a stop here if you're traveling and hungry! read more

Great food, nice employees, lots of options to choose from. They have the best chicken fried steak and biscuits and gravy in Washington. They have nice decor and hundreds of signatures from visitors over the years. A quality place to eat for sure. read more

It's a pleasant step back in time. Breakfast was made to order just the way we liked it. Hometown folks made us feel very welcome and even offered local tips. We'll be back! btw I was a little afraid to go in because of the outside facade, but inside is as friendly as friendly can get. read more

If you get a chance, stop here for a delicious breakfast! Customers were happy, staff was happy, food was real! Eggs, potatoes, toast, bacon basics but well prepared and no shortcuts on good sources. Be prepared for funky "make do" environment of a small out of the way town and building with lots of truckers and farm workers and your soul will thank you. read more

Very deceiving cafe, looks like a hole in the wall on the outside (best type of restaurants) but once you go inside the home feeing atmosphere and home style cooking is just delicious and delightful I'm for sure going to be going back to try different things on the menu. Also they had customers signatures and drawn pictures in the restaurant which I thought was such a unique touch to the home style atmosphere. read more

Surprising little hole in the wall. I was suspicious pulling up to this place but trusted all the great reviews. Breakfast was excellent and I'd definitely return. read more

Not much on the area so we decided to eat brunch at this little hole in the wall. French toast and eggs were amazing! Quirky place, you can write on the walls. Will definitely be back if I'm in the area again! read more

This place is awesome. When we first pulled up, we couldn't see any cars in the lot and thought this place might be closed. We tried the door and - success! - it was open. We both got griddle combos. I went for the French toast and my husband got pancakes. We both opted for the bacon, which was thick and cooked to perfection. This place offers breakfast staples executed well. It's a little bit down home in terms of decor, and it's meticulously clean. I'd definitely recommend checking this place out if you're in the area! read more

This place is the Bomb. Their food is terrific. Nothing fancy, but awesome food, great prices, and excellent service. 3 of us had a huge breakfast for less than $35. Will definitely be going back! read more

I was completely amazed by how good this place was. I ordered the Country Fried Steak and it was cooked to perfection. They give pretty generous portions and everything was so delicious. It was pretty empty inside, but the staff there was very attentive and welcoming. Whenever I'm traveling in the area, I will most definitely stop here to grab a bite to eat. read more

We come here for breakfast every weekend we are down boating! We love it! The food is great! The people are great! We enjoy visiting with Melinda! She is always friendly, remembers what we like to order, and makes the food perfect! My husband always get the biscuits and gravy and loves it! My husband accidentally dropped his wallet at the table when we left, they immediately ran out with it and gave it back, we are so grateful! They are honest friendly people! read more

This place is kinda easy to miss if you get short sighted by the truck stops by the exit, but don't skip this stop for breakfast! This is a nice quiet cozy diner, well lit with comfortable atmosphere. The staff is friendly and the portions are large! read more

Friendly service, cheap prices and tasty food. Great if you are heading to the gorge .

Found this place through Yelp on the way back from Montana. What a great hole-in-the-wall find! Excellent home-cooked breakfast and reasonably priced. The lady working and cooking was very nice too. Will definitely be back any time we're in the area. read more

I will never pass George without stopping for breakfast at the Scalehouse. "DON'T BE SCARED"

Food was good, prices very fair. This is a friendly, sorta out of the way, hole in the wall place, where you Order at the counter, and they serve you. Fun place to eat, and I would return. read more

We stopped here after missing our exit to eat at an IHOP on our way to Coeur d'Alene, Idaho and searching for breakfast for our starving family. We were skeptical at first, it's in the middle of nowhere (we drove right past it and had to turn around) and looks old from the outside. The food was great though! It tasted homemade, and we spent the same we would have at an IHOP. The pancakes are huge! We ordered one griddle combo to split between two of the boys (8 & 11), it was more than enough. Don't judge a book by its cover, we'll be stopping again if we're in need of food on the road! read more
