Bacon Jam Burger*
Thomas R.

The hamburger here was super good. I got the bacon jam burger no lettuce no tomato. Great size on the burger, I got mine cooked medium and it was cooked perfectly.

Caesar Wrap

We had a great experience here! We stopped in for lunch quickly on our way to mount rainier. Our server was very friendly and attentive. We ordered the chicken fingers and Caesar wrap. Our food came very quickly and everything tasted great! Would recommend stopping in!

Out front, Wednesday 2 August 2023.

While The Mint Restaurant & Alehouse was founded in 1906 and re-opened in 2013, my first visit was today, Wednesday 2 August 2023, so I am a bit of a late comer as a 1990s-born Washingtonian. The street parking around the restaurant was 2 to 3 hour parking and I did not have trouble finding an open spot a couple streets away. A hostess greeted me at my entry and I was served by a friendly waitress. I got a table towards the front of the restaurant to myself, I was a solo diner. After first taking a seat with my back to the window, I repositioned myself choosing a stool facing the entrance of the restaurant. I enjoyed this view as I could see out the front window and watch what was going on in the town of Enumclaw from my field of view. Quiet music played in the background and did not overpower my audial experience. For my food and drink, I got water and the Mint's cheeseburger with fries. The cheeseburger came with a white cheddar cheese I enjoyed. None of the toppings, nor the patty nor the bun were too thick. The burger sauce (a smoky mayo) was subtle, but tastable. The fries were crisp with a warm and fluffy interior. I finished it all in one go and found I was not overly full.

This is a great spot to stop by for a bite after a long day hiking in Mt Rainier. The staff are friendly and helpful to accommodate meals for vegetarian or vegan dietary restrictions. The interior is ~cool~ and rustic vibes. The only con is that it is a bit smoky in the restaurant, which can be difficult for people with asthma or sensitivity. It can a little bit hard of hearing or muffled sounds if you are seated in the very front. But nonetheless it is a great spot to visit and get together a group of 6+ people! Con: smoky in the restaurant, a little bit hard of hearing/muffled sounds

Come for a book club meeting, they let us use the middle room area…read more Service was great. Nick handled this woman in our group like a champ! She can't have gluten. She ordered a salad. I'm 99% sure it didn't have croutons buried in the middle, but she freaked out that her fork hit something crunchy and hard. Was most likely bacon but whatever. (The bacon was cooked too crispy perfection visually). She lost it. He didn't argue and had her another one made with the bacon on the side. Kuddos to him. While I fully sympathize with her concerns with gluten, she didn't fish out an actual crouton to show. The 3 cheese burger is absolutely a must! Personally I recommend salt and vinegar chips with it... Great mocktail options and they were happy to make anything off menu for me! Parking is tough but 100000% recommend checking this place out.

There are a few established taverns in Austin, Billy's and the Draught House, but I have to say…read moreParkway Tavern in Tacoma is hands down the most the amazing scenario. Nestled is an old neighborhood, surrounded by huge trees and beautiful flowers, has an ambiance that surpasses anything I have ever seen. It's a neighborhood bar, full service, with great beers on tap and great drinks. I spent two weeks in Tacoma with my sister, and we visited almost everyday. I met Jessie and Camille amongst sweet people. So very friendly. Their food options were special. I loved their simple hamburger and adored the dill pickle dip, I went home that night and found a similar recipe and made it for a party at my niece's. If you ever get up there, please find the time to stop by. I swear you won't regret it. This bar was established in 1935!!
