The cookie was perfectly gooey on the inside, just the way I like it! I couldn't help but finish the whole thing before my burrito even arrived (they are pretty big cookies). The burrito was delicious too, and definitely unique compared to your typical café burrito! The service was great, as well! You order at the counter, and they call your name when your food is ready or bring it right to your table. They also make their chai in-house and sell coffee beans if you want to bring some home. If you're in Evergreen and need a coffee or a little pick-me-up, I highly recommend stopping by! They even have mimosas and Bloody Marys, making it a great spot for brunch as well :)

There was also a live guitar performance that added a nice touch to the overall vibe. Both the indoor and outdoor seating areas are great options. The café is located near a small river, and the outdoor seating is surrounded by green space, creating a peaceful and relaxing setting. The indoor seating is cozy and comfortable as well. Our server was very friendly and welcoming, and overall we had a great experience and would happily come back.

Expect to wait 30-60 minutes for a breakfast/brunch table, especially if you want one of the coveted outdoor spots. The seating is worth it though, the view of the forest and creek from your table is so endearing and serene. The food and drinks are delicious. The meals are all ornately plated, and well thought out, and made with great ingredients. The venue is semi-open air so there are a lot of flies, but every table has an anti-fly windmill/propeller. I will definitely go back, but now I know parking is super limited and annoying. All of the businesses in town are hyper aware of how limited this very popular restaurant's parking is, and aggressively inform you they are "Not Restaurant Parking". Plan to park curbside in the dirt on the outskirts of town far from any other business, and make the short walk to the restaurant.

Parkside Cafe was a great new find for us. We sat outdoors and enjoyed the newly renovated patio…read more It was bustling Saturday morning, with a decently full patio of patrons, pups and servers. What surprised us was a small crew of 3-4 men pouring concrete, at the entrance to the cafe and patio where we all sat. Literally 3-4 feet away from our particular table. Who knows, maybe a Saturday morning time slot was the only concrete pouring time slot available. It was odd though. But not odd enough to deter us from the delicious breakfast that we had, lol. We started with the cinnamon roll. Not too much icy and enough to provide the sweetness you're expecting. My breakfast burrito and his chicken fried steak and eggs were scrumptious. We thought about returning on Sunday, lol. The mountain drive was just enough to leave the suburbs and remind yourself that the mountains are literally next door. We'll def be back and back out in that patio, maybe newly expanded for the second time, haha.

I especially loved that some of their meals had a full and half portion. Great idea for less food waste! They have a wide list of benedicts, breakfast foods, as well as lunch options for anyone's delight. I had the full cajun benedict and I was pleasantly surprised. It had great flavor and there was plenty of food. Really delicious. I also indulged in a bloody maria. It was very good, just a little too strong for me. Well worth the $11 if you like a strong mixed drink. The only real downside is they didnt have air conditioning going so the inside was just as hot as the outside. All in all, this spot is pretty great! Definitely recommend for brunch and a cocktail!

First time at Murphy's Mountain Grill in downtown Evergreen, and the INS and the OUTS burger was my…read morefavorite bite. It was juicy, rich, and beefy, on a soft toasted bun with American cheese, grilled onions, pickles, and Murph sauce. The fries were crispy and well seasoned. The team told us everything on the menu is made in house, even the sauces, and you can taste it in everything we tried. The wings were tender, sweet, and sticky with a spicy kick, so I'd order the burger and wings together. The ahi wonton tacos had a crunchy tortilla, fresh tuna, a sesame crust, and creamy guacamole. For drinks, the Black Lavender was the better of the two I tried, and the Mandarin Fashion was fine. We sat inside, and it's cozy in that classic mountain restaurant way. The service was lovely and everyone was very hospitable. It's right on Bear Creek and a perfect stop after a hike, for lunch or brunch, or on an Evergreen day trip.
