I especially appreciated the sack lunch that you can order at breakfast time (and other times, of course.) It's perfect for hikers and sightseers to take with them for later. We were there at breakfast time on an unusually hot day. So I wanted something cold, and lighter than the breakfasts. The delicious cold ham and cheese sandwich and orange were perfect. It also included chips, a chocolate bar and cookies. More than I could eat at one meal! My two companions enjoyed their hot breakfasts too. Service was excellent too, even though they were very busy. read more

We stopped in right before 11 am to have breakfast. Didn't take us long to get seated. We waited 30 minutes and we left. We never got told "Sorry, we are busy can I get you anything while you wait?" Nothing. No word of communication. If they are "short staffed" Should be noted or communicated. While leaving the waitress didn't care. She said "ok". After mentioning "we waited over 20 minutes" then we discovered it was actually over 30 minutes. It's pretty sad for a "Twilight town service" So we went to SULLYS instead! No breakfast but burgers was great! Had a note on door being "short staffed, closing early" read more

I went here with a group of 11 on Monday night. The hostess was great and could seat us right away. Our waitress seemed a bit annoyed with our group and wouldnt take our drink order until we ordered food- it was really odd. The food was okay, nothing special but everyone I was with ate what they ordered and the order came out correct so that's always a plus. read more

Really bad food!! Unfortunately Forks has pretty limited options, and this seemed like the best. We got there right after breakfast ended so had to get lunch food at noon. I ordered the teriyaki chicken sandwich and was not impressed. It had so much mayo on it, when it wasn't supposed to have any... nasty. And the chicken has a bone in it, about half an inch long, that I had to pull out of my mouth. The fries were bland, and the clam chowder was canned and basically inedible. The service was ok, and prices were reasonable. Definitely avoid unless you are in desperate need of food. read more

Lets start off with the happy greating and fast seating right out the gate. The service was very fast and food on point! The fish and chips were lovely with tartar sauce and coleslaw. Enjoyed a nice apple cider it was perfectly made and warmed me right up. Chicken nuggets and Mac and cheese for the minion. She had zero complaints she's practically a chicken nugget herself. Nice strawberry lemonade for her as well Prime rib dip for the sis she ate it fast and had no complaints came with a side salad or fries I enjoyed her salad. The only bad thing was the bathroom stall didn't have toilet paper but after I told the server they rectified it right away. Bathrooms were clean no issues after that! Enjoyed would highlly recommend! read more

We came for breakfast while we were camping in Forks. I'm a sucker for country fried steak and it did not disappoint! The breading was super crunchy and the sausage gravy on top was well seasoned. We also got a half order of biscuits and gravy and the biscuits were pillowy and there was more than enough gravy for the biscuit. They also offer a sack lunch takeout for hikers where you can build your own deli sandwich read more

Was looking for a spot in Forks to get some late night ice cream. Found this spot and got seated right away. My friends all ordered pie and I got the strawberry sundae. It was massive. The waiter was super nice and the decor was cute. It did have a strong fishy smell but I'm assuming that's because they serve fish. Yummy ice cream!! read more

We stopped in for breakfast while visiting Forks and unfortunately had a disappointing experience. Our waitress was noticeably warm and chatty with the other tables around us, but with our table she was extremely curt. When I ordered, she wrote it down without saying a word, didn't make eye contact, and didn't verbally confirm the order. Later, when I asked for strawberries, she again simply wrote it down without acknowledging me. Our coffees also went without refills while she continued checking in with other guests. The strawberries didn't come... so I thought maybe she didn't hear me... so I kind of just let it go. but then she brought the check and she still charged us for them - confirming she heard. Maybe she was having an off morning, but the difference in how we were treated compared to the surrounding tables was noticeable enough that both my husband and I commented on it during the meal. I hope it's not nefarious/prejudice - I don't want to assume - but we ARE interracial, and visibly queer. The food itself was fine enough, but the service left us feeling unwelcome. I hope this was just an isolated experience, because everyone deserves to feel acknowledged and treated with the same courtesy. read more

Seems like a family owned business that has existed for a while. The place has a lot of seating. Food portion is relative smaller compared its price. Service is slow, and I saw one of the servers dropped a dirty spoon while cleaning a table. She decided to lock the dirty spoon all the way through the hallway into kitchen floor then picked it up... read more

5/14/26: wonderful diner with friendly staff -- and attentive! When we walked in, the young gal said "Four? I saw you pull up." It's a pretty big restaurant and the food was very good. The only hiccup was that one of the waitresses thought we were drinking coffee (it was hot tea) & before we knew what was happening, she poured coffee into our mugs. Of course, we all laughed about it. :-) Easy mistake. Maybe the mugs should be colored to differentiate beverages. LOL! There was plenty of parking and Forks was a fun town to visit. EVERYONE was so friendly. read more

The food options were quite limited. Our host was very friendly, but our waitress was a bit rude. She seemed annoyed when we asked about breakfast, which was unfortunate because we had passed the cutoff time. While it was fine that we had missed the cutoff, her reaction and tone were off-putting. When I asked for more time to look at the menu, she scoffed and walked away. She never checked on us while we were eating or brought us refills. read more

Stopped for lunch around 1:45pm while visiting Forks for the day. Super cute diner vibes and friendly staff. Food was great and served hot, excellent service. Great fries and crispy, we loved it. It's your standard diner food but it's done well so if you go in with those expectations you'll be pleased. Would definitely dine in again. read more

The price to food ratio in this place is awesome. Great value fpr the price. I just had a 12 oz perfect ribeye for 27$. The seafood salad is also great. The place has character and the servers are super cool. This does not deserve the rating its got. read more

A Good Meal, But Expect a Long Wait We stopped at The In Place in Forks and unfortunately experienced some very long wait times. We arrived at 11:15 AM, waited about 15 minutes for a table, and after ordering, it took until approximately 12:30 PM for our food to reach the table. The restaurant appeared to be short-staffed, and service was quite slow. Food also didn't seem to come out in the order customers were seated or placed their orders. We saw customers who arrived and ordered after us being served before our food arrived. That said, the food itself was good and the portions were generous. I don't blame the line staff or servers--they appeared to be doing their best under the circumstances. The issue seems more like a staffing and management problem that needs to be addressed. If you're planning to eat here, just be prepared for a potentially long wait. If you're on a tight schedule, you may want to take that into consideration. Good food and generous portions, but expect slow service until the staffing and management issues are resolved. read more

Pleasant simple breakfast!! Easy in and out. Staff was super nice. We were early and didn't have to wait but saw a line later on. read more

terrible service. Waited 45 mins for appetizer. Old waiter with tattoos never checked up on us (no water refills, nothing) and when given the check, she said "you can place your tip here if you want" Food was edible (mozzarella sticks + philly cheesesteak) read more

Great little place for breakfast. One of the best we have had while traveling around the Olympic coast. Nothing fancy just simple eggs, pancakes and breakfast meats (all crispy) but delicious. read more

We were driving through forks pretty late last night. I think The In place was the only place open so we stopped in. They said they were closing in 30 minutes but thankfully said they would be happy to serve us because we were starving. It's a casual restaurant that looks family owned. The service was really great. We were a pretty big group coming in before closing and they didn't make us feel bad about it one bit. I felt awful though but we were desperate. I had the fried fresh cod and it was delicious! The batter was light, crispy and flavorful. My kids raved about the salmon and the pasta dish as well. If you're in Forks you should give it a shot if you're in the mood for seafood. We would definitely eat here again. read more

Ate here with Jaric because I was craving mimosa even though it was past brunch munch time, and they still were willing to make it ! I was so happy. Pretty good, but didn't feel as strong as I hoped :( service was good, too, with enthusiasm from our waitress by asking us about the food and our Forks, Washington trip. It made us feel welcome and was such a nice conclusion to our trip overall. Plenty of parking here, too. Anyway, food was nothing special. I got the seafood trio pasta that did not make me :O, but it filled me up and did not make me sick afterwards! Jaric got the fish and chips, which was also good. Nothing crazy for the food. A bit cramped with the seating arrangements when I made my way to and from the bathroom, but not a bother. I like that each booth had wooden separators because I feel like Jaric and I were in our own world where not everyone could hear our conversation. read more

Diner comfort food. Solid 3 stars on food. My friend and I ordered chicken fried steak and salmon fettuccine. Food was good and simple. Took 30 minutes to take our order and another 30 to bring the food. People that arrived after us were finished and paid their checks before our food arrived. After waiting 20 minutes for the check, we went to the front and stood there another 10 minutes before someone came over to ring us out. Small restaurant with a few tables. Full bar. Breakfast and lunch. read more

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. read more

Terrible experience. While I understand there are limited options in forks and don't want to judge every spot, the food here was not worth the price. It was made with bare minimum effort, just something put together real quick and lacked taste/flavor! The worst part of the experience was the rude host. This slightly elder woman at the restaurant came in to take our order and had way too many things to say about us and everything we wanted to get. She even called out one of us to "eat more and not starve" and then had an issue when we wanted to pack our food to take back. Extremely rude behavior. Won't recommend this spot! read more

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. read more

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. read more

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. read more

There's not much in Forks, so.. you get what you can get. Came during the summer. They have a very small sign at the front near the register about a 4% credit card fee. Definitely didn't notice it until I saw it on the menu. That's steep. The wait for lunch was 45 minutes or something and the restaurant was empty.. meaning they don't have the staff. Early dinner at 6p and no wait, but later when we finished there definitely was. Got the fried catfish ($16+). Standard stuff. I wasn't expecting to be blown away anyway. I wish I went to the burger place in town instead though.. read more

Every employee was awesome and ran the restaurant like pros. Breakfast was delicious and well-priced. Great small town place to eat

Well it was flat out a bad experience. $13.00 hockey puck burger, cold grocery store onion rings and poor service. I asked for a water refill and it never showed up. The other waitress finally brought my bill which took forever to get and process. The town has very limited restaurant options and they apparently know that. I would suggest a couple of hotdogs from the Circle K down the road before coming here. read more

Service was good and the food was good. I loved the coffee and the vibe. Cool location.

Just in there to eat. Stood at the hostess area, waiting to be seated as hostess was dealing with another customer. We didn't get a hello, a welcome, or any eye contact. She then disappeared for a bit, leaving us to just hang out waiting and continue being ignored. It was pretty obvious they didn't give a you know what whether we patronized the place or not, so we left and found a restaurant that was happy to serve us and we were happy to give that establishment our money. All it would have taken for us to stay was the slightest bit of a welcome or acknowledgement of our presence. read more

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! read more
