I loved my breve, which really highlighted the quality Stumptown beans they use. My husband tried the Mexican Mocha. He said it was fine but too sweet & strong with cinnamon syrup. Next time he said he would get the plain mocha. Because yes! There will be a next time! We were glad Grinders was open. Not much else was at that time of morning! It wasn't too far out of the way to get back on Eastbound I-84 either.

The crust of the bread was soft enough for a fork, and the cucumber on it was sooooo tasty! I got a vanilla latte which was a perfect pair. We sat outside in the patio, and it's such a cool space.

We were surprised to find it was a renovated church in a darling neighborhood. We had the avocado toast and eggs Benedict. The bread was delicious!! It tasted a bit sweet but delicious! The benedict was good althought the eggs were a bit over cooked and the holladaise was a bit too thin. The service was friendly and competent. We liked the feel of the restaurant and were actually surprised it wasn't busier than it was. It's a cute little spot with good food. I had been hoping for a restaurant where we would be seated and order this is more of a self serve spot.

The place ran like a finely tuned machine and everyone working there was friendly and hard working. The service was fast considering how busy they were. They had a large munu of burgers, sandwiches, shakes, ice cream, abd breaded style seafood. We had cheesburgers and fries. Both were tasty. We will make this a new goto place when driving through.

The list of toppings for burgers is fantastic. The shakes are great, this time I tried chocolate with fresh banana and it was blended to perfection with small chunks of the fruit here and there. The only thing better than the food itself is the service. The folks here are always so friendly and they will not rush you to order but will double check you know all your options and get something you love. The dining area and bathrooms are always clean and welcoming. If you stop here you won't leave disappointed.

It's called the Wasco Chopped Salad & the fresh lettuce is rather difficult to find under the plethora of amazing & delicious toppings: bacon, egg slices, diced tomato, and the most tender & perfectly-seasoned chicken breast! Every single bite was more yummy stuff than filler lettuce! And the blue cheese dressing was THE BEST- super thick & creamy & didn't overpower the salad. The only complaint we have is we needed more dressing;) This salad was SO good I had for leftovers the next day & it was just as amazing as the night before! We also ordered the Fried Pickles with our choices of ranch & garlic aoli dipping sauces. The pickles were huge spears coated in a crunchy batter! The only complaint about these guys were we couldn't wait for them to cool & almost burnt our mouths;) We also ordered the Pretzel Bites with our choices of mustard & beer cheese sauce. The server gave us a sample of the Dill Pickle Gose beer & wow! We were nervous about drinking dill pickle beer, but this had a refreshing pickle taste! So much so that we took a 4-pack home!

So's we gave it a whirl because of it's rating. Those ratings may have been done by the operators of dis joint. They aren't right. We ordered and da palooka that takes the orders didn't have any decaf. He didn't have any root beer. Seems easier to say what he didn't have than what he did. I got a soda that was caffeine free and just hadda couple swings, I avoids sugar. I know, I know shoulda had water as usual. A BLT is usually safe. But I doesn't eat salt as a rule and never caffiene. Sometimes as a "treat" if yas get my drift. I look at the ingredient list and it seemed pretty safe and I felt like being treated. So's the fake Italian sandwich shows up and the "home made mayo" is not mayo, it's some spicy crapola I can't eat that's supposed to be a ringer for mayo. If yas hasn't figured it out yet Hammer is a picky eater and drinker. I don't eat anything spicy. I don't like it. Want to be certain yas totally destroy a sandwich. Spread something on it that's horrid. That oughta do it. We never saw the sap that took our order after he brought the fake Italian food. In a "real" restaurant the server comes an' checks ta see if yas needs anything or how that grub is. My skirt ate what they brought her and said it was marginal but nutt'in to write home about. She was hungry. I wiped off the bacon much as I could and ate around da rest staying away from the terrible fake mayo much as possible. Didn't amount to much that was edible. I wanted to get "on the road again" or I would have helped out more with the improvement of this con joint. As a rule I won't pay 44 bucks for food I won't eat. I promise I don't tip when I already feel like I was misinformed about the food and robbed already. We just scrammed outta there. When will be be back? Easy peasy NEVER!
