Spruce Goose Cafe - Views of Olympics and planes at restaurant - American Near Me - Port Townsend, Washington

Everything on every level. Food, Service, Ambience, Location, you name it, it is worth the trip. BRAVO read more

I. Love. This. Restaurant! I stop in regularly once or twice a month mostly for breakfast. It's hard to find a good breakfast spot and if that's what you're looking for look no further. The food is great, the portions are generous and the prices are still reasonable. They have not gouged the consumer like most establishments have over the past 5-6 years. The staff is really good and also very consistent. The location is adjacent to an airfield and you can usually watch the small planes coming in and out. This restaurant can get a bit busy but if you go off of peak hours it's easy peasy to get a table. They also have outdoor seating for when the weather is playing nice. Great place to grab a bite!! read more

We went for lunch and made the mistake of arriving right at 11:30, when breakfast had just ended (at 11:20) and lunch was starting. It was definitely a busy transition, so the restaurant was packed. I had the turkey BLT, and while it was good, it wasn't quite as amazing as it has been on previous visits. That said, it's such a fun place to eat, and the staff is always friendly and welcoming. Next time, I'll just plan my timing a little better! read more

Super classic diner and a huge plus that it's super convenient to fly in for brunch. If flying, I definitely would recommend coming before 12 as that's when everyone else flocks over like little ants haha The service is super friendly and welcoming, decor is a bit old school, but so fun with all the aviation related things. I ordered a half order of the French toast which was so classically yummy. And obviously got a slice of apple blueberry crumble to go. The pie was a bit too sweet for me, but I love how thick and crumbly the crust is. Overall, solid classic place. You'll definitely see me here again (before lunch rush haha) read more

Spruce Goose recently changed ownership, and it has gotten even better. It's always been a fun place to go (and also to take the grandkids) to watch the planes, look over all the airplane decor, and have a good meal. But staff are now rocking this place with attention to detail, great food and friendly welcoming crew. Of course you can go here for a burger and fries and pie - but if you are a vegetable lover, try the wildcat veggie sandwich with fresh avocado for lunch, or their delicious avocado toast with eggs and homemade hash browns for breakfast and you tell me. Make sure to try out their delicious marble rye toast too if you are having a sandwich - and their side salads are generous and not boring. For you gourmet coffee drinkers, get your espresso somewhere else first, this is an upscale rural diner but i's still a diner with plain American coffee. We have been there 3 times in the last month, and every time a winner, so I thought I'd better write a review and give them some love. They improved their hours too, open 7 days a week now! Such a great option when so many restaurants in town are closed a few days a week. read more

What a cool spot to eat lunch! You can hear and watch planes firing up, taking off and landing while you eat. I had the Reuben, the first one I've had in a while. But being the good German I am, I never say no to some good kraut. My server, I believe Vanessa, was great. I love PT, I will be back! read more

Spruce Goose Cafe - The Reuben! - American Near Me - Port Townsend, Washington

food service all good the chowder is full of clams! split the french dip and each had a chowder dessert is going home with us!

Unless you're a frequent customer I'd highly suggest not visiting. We were seated quickly outdoors and were not busy. We got coffee and waitress said she'd be right back. Not great coffee. After 5 minutes a large group came in and grabbed cushions for cold metal seats and were waited on quickly. We got cushions and waited another 5 minutes then decided to pour our own coffee assuming the carafe was out for that. We got chastised for touching it but still no service. Finally another waitress took our order since the first one was with the larger table. Good came but was cool. Horrid experience and nothing like all the other great restaurants we visited on our vacation. Stars are for setting and second waitress. read more

The perfect little hide away place for a good meal and very relaxing environment. Not many tourists go out of town to enjoy and sitting outside taking the time to actually enjoy a meal while watching the airplanes flying, is much more relaxing and enjoyable than you would think read more

Atmosphere is great. Service was slow.... Food was ok. Definitely used to be a lot better. Our waitress (younger blond) is great. Just a very different vibe in the place. New cook? Owners? Idk read more

We stumbled on this place via yelp while on vacation. So good we made it our "regular spot" as many days as we could. We just had breakfast but we will stop in for pie next trip. Very friendly staff. Great breakfast and the coffee was better than your typical diner fare. read more

Delicious food! Interesting menu, competent helpful staff, and eclectic decor. I was disappointed when they delivered my over easy eggs broken and over-hard, but they made it right. Cook should have remade them before the plate even hit the window. When I make it back to Port Townsend, they will be a "must go-to" place. Apologies for the short review, I'm on a time crunch today. read more

A Magical Place with lovely people everywhere. Feels like Garrison Keillers Lake Wobegan. The food is unforgettable. read more

The Monte Cristo was worth flying in for, and co-pilot's Chicago Dip was tender and flavourful. Yes, I hijacked a bite! It was a little difficult getting out for our return flight, but I was happy to see how busy the place was on a Sunday. Business is booming under the new ownership. The staff were friendly and did a great job under pressure. I took some rhubarb pie to go. It was homemade and delicious, although the crust was a bit bland. They may have forgotten to add a pinch of salt. Dessert pie crust should be just slightly savory. Other than that, still the best around! We'll definitely be back! read more

I took my 48 year-old son there when he was just three and he was so thrilled being around airplanes. When one took off or landed, he was enthralled. The food is good and it is inexpensive and plantable read more

I ordered a side of cole slaw and was given raw cabbage without dressing. When I told the waitress, she gave me a replacement but did not believe me that there was no dressing on the original one. I ordered tuna on whole wheat toast and was given untoasted bread that fell apart from moisture in the tuna salad. Not the greatest lunch. read more

Just had a take-out Cobb Salad from Spruce Goose. Best I've had in years. Thank you! (I usually get a burger with fries to go. Also, excellent.) read more

*** 3.5 stars *** Ordered brunch-to-go over the phone. The food was ready in 10 minutes. Pilots Pancake Special - Nothing special. Two fluffy pancakes (pretty good but they were paired with butter not maple syrup hmmm), two eggs any style (I picked scrambled eggs - flavorless, smaller portion than expected), and one sausage patty (tasty). Old Fashion Oatmeal - My favorite out of three. Delicious original oats cooked with milk. I appreciate that they put raisins and brown sugar in separate containers. Fruit Salad w/ Cottage Cheese - Fresh fruit with huge portion of cottage cheese, but the cheese didn't taste good at all. We ended up throwing away most of it. Price was really cheap - $33 for all of these not including tip. Portion was big for the most part. Flavor was meh. read more

Sweet place amd great service. There was a bit of a wait, bit well worth it. The entire staff is fantastic.

Wow where to begin! First, run don't walk to the Spruce Goose Cafe! What a gem of a place. On our way out of town visiting Port Townsend a girlfriend and I stopped in for breakfast. At first we thought we might be lost as we were driving into the Jefferson County International Airport but soon we discovered the best restaurant around. We had just missed breakfast hour but the lunch menu was fabulous too. Enjoyed the clam chowder (Friday special) and a tuna sandwich on rye. Busy place with lots of locals and smiling people. The staff were all super friendly. We purchased some cute merchandise to take home with us too. We will be coming back for the breakfast soon. Don't miss this amazing little spot! read more

Amazing breakfast and lunch selection! Welcoming staff and great service! Loved the airplane decor and watching planes fly in.

Good food and nice employees, kinda small and crowded inside but besides that it's a great place to get a bit to eat

You all probably know how this place is a fly-in diner where you get a very unique experience along with your meal. But man, I have never had an experience like this! Seeing people fly in to eat in their personal airplanes and I even saw a helicopter land here. A HELICOPTER. Like WHAT IS THIS LIFE?! I drove to this restaurant by the way. Onwards to the food: - So here's the precursor to my review. I love canned corned beef hash. I think it's like traveling back in time to grade school where my grandma used to cook me corned beef hash and eggs for breakfast. I'm not ashamed by this. I can say it over and over again. I LOVE CANNED CORNED BEEF HASH! Anyways, that's what they serve here and it was delicious! Gotta eat some salty and crunchy meat, eggs, and buttered sourdough bread with a gorgeous view of the airport. A unique experience indeed! - My SO ordered the eggs benny and it looked alright. Nothing too fancy about it. Summary: Go here for the unique experience. No showstopper meals here, but if you like the canned stuff they got it! =) read more

I found nothing outstanding here. Table service was inattentive and nothing to rave about. No refill offered on overpriced soft drink. My hamburger was ordinary and flavorless, probably cooked while frozen. French fries were cold. With so many better options in Port Townsend, I see no reason to ever return here for the small portions of mediocre offerings. Fish & Chips appeared to be frozen Mrs. Paul's. Not sure why it is rated at 4.5 stars as our experience here was basic institution type frozen food. read more

Iconic airport diner, blueberry pancakes are on point as are their excellent home made pies, apparently now it's owned by the employees, great service. As a pilot I travel to tons of airports and this is the best Americana airport diner I have seen world wide. A+ read more

Not impressed with the place really. Service is good, food is ehh... some reviews say the portions are large? Not for us, the potato serving size was dismal, the eggs must be small size, the bacon was over cooked and greasy and not very big strips. When you can see space between every item on a small plate, its a cook being cheap and trying to make things stretch out. Not worth the price or the time to eat there. We went there before they changed hands and after, same story and sorry, that friendly smile and banter only goes so far when the portions are small and the prices are high. Cant even give you a cup of potato's or an egg bigger than a 50 cent pc. Thats being cheap. Sorry, no matter the story that's told, its not that great here. read more

Arrived for breakfast at 11:22. Took 5 minutes to be waited on. They advertise breakfast until 11:30. Time:11:27. My first time to try them. No second chance. read more

Very cute place. Reminds me of this old place that used to be at the airport in Hoquiam, Wa. Called Lana's Cafe. It's been closed for years but this is so close to it. Very friendly service, nice seating, nice bathrooms. The eggs Benedict was so good, I got a half order. Coffee was fairly good as well. The pancake was very good. Very squishy and cooked evenly. Loved watching the planes take off and land. read more

We always stop here for breakfast when we are in Port Townsend. It has a real local feel and the food is simply delicious. All kinds of model airplanes decorate the place. It's right next to a small airport after all. Our waitress was so friendly and made us feel welcome. One of the best places for breakfast near Port Townsend. read more

Great food, HUGE portions. Friendly staff, cool ambiance. Highly recommend this little airport diner!

We had a fabulous breakfast there! Great menu really good food fabulous service, and awesome to watch the planes touchdown and takeoff. Next-door is the Aero museum, which we really recommend because it was amazing and they have a fabulous program for the youth in the area. read more

Always consistent and good breakfast. They just need to do a better job getting the word out when they have to be closed. GREAT PIE

A very nice little café at the airport. They have wonderful biscuits and gravy. I definitely would suggest a cinnamon roll. Service was excellent staff is very knowledgeable. read more

Unexpectedly great. This cafe was recommended to us by my fiancé's flight instructor after he recently got his pilots license. We flew into Port Townsend which the cafe is connected to. BEST PIE I HAVE EVER HAD. The place was busy with pilots and guests that drove in. We waited about 10 minutes and were seated inside. The Pilots Pancake breakfast was a massive portion of pancakes, eggs, and bacon. The bacon was smokey and cooked to perfection alongside sweet pancakes. My fiancé ordered the French toast and completely stuffed himself. I had to tap out before I could finish my pancakes. THE MOST IMPORTANT PART: We ordered a slice of Marion Berry Crunch Pie to go. Let me tell you...I am not typically a pie person but this was FANTASTIC. It was a mixture of sweet, tart, and crunchy rolled oats. I wish I ordered a whole pie honestly so I could have some leftovers. Will definitely be returning. read more
