    Being next to our hotel was the deciding factor in choosing this spot for dinner. We're not mad about it! The hostess was incredibly pleasant and took our names down on a Wednesday night...we waited outside and after maybe a 5-10 minute wait, we were seated in the glass enclosed front dining area. We both took a risk and ordered steaks. Being from Vegas, we couldn't resist the price points. (Around $25 for a top sirloin and upper $20s for a 12oz ribeye.) Both steaks were tasty, good sear flavor, perhaps a bit over the requested medium rare but still good. They came with a side fries/mashed potatoes and green beans, along with a dinner roll. We did wait a perhaps 15-20 minutes for our food but we weren't in a hurry. Our waitress was attentive enough to provide a drink refill and return with our check promptly.

    Two eggs with toast and hash browns

    Came here for breakfast. One of the only dine in breakfast places in town. We got the two eggs with toast and hash browns. Food was ok. Nothing special, just average. The hash browns were pretty pale. It could be crispier.

    Philly Cheese Steak

    I was staying in Forks and wanted a bite to eat one evening after a long day at Rocky Mountain National Park. Everything in this town was either closed or had an hour long wait for a table. There aren't a whole lot of restaurant options in Forks. The In Place was busy for a Sunday, but not didn't have a crazy long line like the other places that I visited. The In Place Restaurant is open for breakfast, lunch & dinner and has a menu with a little bit of everything on it. I stopped by here because it was close to my hotel. I got their Philly Cheesesteak to-go and ate it in my room before crashing for the night. Even though I had to wait a little while for my food, I appreciated finding a location here in town that keeps their kitchen open for us late night people.

    There aren't many options for breakfast in Forks, so we gave this place a try. There was a 15-25 min wait to get a table. Then once we were seated, it took a bit before our order was taken, and then a long wait to actually get our food. I had the chicken fried steak breakfast. It was ok, but seemed somewhat overcooked. The omelettes were also ok, but nothing spectacular. My husband enjoyed his fajita breakfast skillet. Service was friendly and they kept our waters and coffees filled. Not a huge restaurant, but they kept all of them occupied.

    Amazing food and vibes. Came in around 6:30am and just love how it is. Very friendly, cozy, wilderness type atmosphere

    Chicken Fried Steak and Alfredo Pasta

    Food wasn't great and the service was worse. Starting off when i inquired either the server on which dish she would suggest she actually held up her finger to stop me from talking. I let that go as I understand she was writing down my cousins order. After what we ordered came out I must say that the chicken fried steak tasted over cook or the oil possibly needs to be changed, the rice bland and the sauce was anything great. The "alfredo" pasta did not have much taste all you could taste was the buttery noodles. At the end of the meal which we didn't finish I just kindly informed the server that the pasta didn't really have flavor. Was bot expecting anything but I do like to give my thoughts especially when she asked. She came back not long after with our check and went on to inform is that we should stop by the convenience store and pick up some airborne which we were worried that it could mean some kind of illness but she stated she dipped her finger in the sauce and it tasted fine and it could be our taste buds. I was blown away with how horrible she was making that comment and that her service ethics was way below what any establishment should be at. If you can't take the feedback don't ask! Overall we will never be going back here again. If I could i would give this place a zero just based on that servers remark.

    There are not a great number of dining/drinking options in Forks (somewhat surprising given the town's proximity to a national park). The In Place is one of the better ones. We stopped in for an early dinner but they're open for breakfast and lunch too. - Slow service, understaffed. Seems to be an issue in all of Forks. - Decent fish and chips, weak coleslaw. Salmon entree is good. - Several beer choices on tap but a limited wine selection.

    At the In Place, one can expect a casual and unremarkable atmosphere with a utilitarian approach to decor. The diner comes with a dining area littered with stale droppings of the days past food orders and a clear indication that cleanliness is not a priority, unfortunately after a deeper look at the cleanliness of the floor I had second guess this dining decision. The staff is friendly but not particularly attentive, if they would have been I would have had a side salad rather than an order of fries and a "close to decent" chicken sandwich made to order, rather than the tasteless grilled chicken breast accompanied by unwanted lettuce, tomatoes and mayo tossed between two toasted buns. Dining at the In Place is an unremarkable experience that satisfies basic hunger but does little to excite the palate, it just serves its purpose as a convenient place for a family meal. I can only hope the poor couple who were still waiting for their meal after we left, got fed eventually. Cheers!

    If you're looking for a place to eat during lunch while you make your way through all the twilight…read morethemed adventures, this is it! Right on the beach with an incredible view sits this incredible restaurant. You're greeted with a warm smile by the waitress and the amazing smell of the kitchen. We got to choose where we sat so of course, we chose a window seat, although plenty of seating options were available. Their lunch menu is easy to navigate, as it wasn't extensive but still offered options. My husband and I tried the mozzarella sticks, clam chowder, fish and chips and the club. The marinara for the mozzarella sticks was out of this world! Don't forget the cheese pull when you bite in! All perfectly seasoned. The clam chowder had a healthy amount of clams, served with oyster crackers. The consistency of the soup was perfect. The fish for the fish and chips, along with the crispy batter was the best fish we've had in a long time! Even the lemon on the side was bright and vibrant which explains the dish perfectly. The club was a wonderful traditional club with a GOOD amount of meat. The bacon added an awesome salt factor and was crispy, which is how we like it! The best part is the fact that after lunch, we only had to drive 3-4 minutes away to explore La Push Beach! Overall, the service was awesome, the food was incredible and the views were beautiful! Can't wait to come back on our next vacation!

    Ambiance: Great location by the water. You can see regular seagulls and ducks but we saw some brown…read morepelicans and a heron as well our visit. The restaurant itself is comfortable with leather padded seats and the music was fairly muted so talking was very easy. Service isn't necessarily the most attentive or snappy but not negligent either. Took like 5-10 minutes each time to get a beer, flag for check, and no one routinely filling water, etc. I kind of them to be more responsive since there were literally only 2 other tables when we came. Food: Hot honey Brussels: Strongly recommended but it was on their specials menu so may not be available year round. The Brussels were crispy and not too bitter, it was topped with healthy amounts of pumpkin seeds, dried cranberries, warmed pears, Gorgonzola, and a drizzle of honey that wasn't excessive. Fish and chips: The good of this dish is the fish. The flesh is tender, properly cooked and it comes straight from the fryer blazing hot. The breading is crisp and well adhered but a little dense and oily compared to other fried fish I've had. My major complaint however was that the crinkle cut fries had a rancid oil taste which is bitter with a slight chemical smell. This may not be a problem when you go but it was very off putting for me. The tartar sauce is also VERY dill forward and very rich without any relish so I squeezed most of my lemon in it to brighten it up and help cut the grease. Mac and Jacks African Amber beer - Delicious beer served wonderfully cold Overall, this place was a little hit and miss. We really enjoyed our Brussels appetizer and beer but the fish and chips were overall mediocre at best, even if you forgive them for the rancid oil. Prices were reasonable to slightly high: two fish and chip entrees, a beer, and a soda running about $67 w/o tip. Probably not a place I would bother trying again.
