Lots of booths from both vendors selling tchotchkes and insurance companies wanting your business. The disappointing thing is the food. They have lots of options, but for the life of me I'm never thrilled by what I end up getting. Last year I had a disappointing bbq oemthing or other fromt he democrat's booth. This year I tried the greek fries from the gyro place which wa just some fries with tzatsiki sauce and cheese on top. It was okay, but not craveable. I also tried the samosas and the chia lemonade from the greek temple. The samosas were kinda forgettable, but I loved the lemonade with chia seed. I'm gonna try that tomorrow since I have both chia seed and Country time. I got to see some music at the bandstand. I listened to Bless the Ashes (how cool is that name?!?) and that was a good show. I got there at 7 and y the time I made my way to the vendor area, some of the booths were closed, so boo.

This was hands-down, the worst experience ever since we moved to the Olympia area.

I actually could not believe that that was happening, she deliberately looked at me and never even once said, can I take your order the man that was cooking noticed this, but didn't help us. I don't know if this was a race racist or hate type of crime but that's what it felt like since I am a Caucasian woman and so is my daughter. Terrible terrible experience and also a filthy eating environment. I noticed I would not recommend going there ever.

We found this place at the Olympia Farmer market and saw a long line so I had to check it out. The…read morewait was about 10-15 minutes. They had a variety of items from cookies to croissants to bread. I ordered: Ham and cheese croissant - standard Brioche roll - decent Croissant fritter - the highlight of this bakery - it is soooo good. Flakey, pull apart, flavorful. Price was reasonable as well. There was only one person working so that's probably why it takes some time. It looks like they have a restaurant here as well and I heard it gets crowded too. If I'm in the area, I might come back to try their other stuff.

I have visited here and it was my go to for myself and visitors since moving to Olympia and always…read morehad a wonderful experience ... until yesterday. I gave a 5 star rating a year ago although visited several times since then. I can't figure out what happened. Did the chef (s) move on, or pass away and a crew from a local fast food restaurant was hired as a replacement? I ordered the meal with filet, crab leg, lobster (portion?) with baked potato and Death by Peaches for dessert. I have had crab legs here before. This had been boiled until there was no flavor, and very ittle meat. And that was the selling point for me. The lomaster was fine but the sauce wasn't hollandaise as the bartender said. A watery, mustardy sauce. Not terrible but not very good either. Ordered filet medium, came well done. I took it home hoping to add to chili but too tough to eat. Took the baked potato home to save room for dessert and it was good. The real slap in the face was the dessert. I have ordered Death by peaches over and over and was never disappointed. What arrived was a heavy, dry, dense cake without much flavor, some peaches and a small scoop of ice cream. It needed a lot of ice cream or peaches to get through it. I left most of it. I don't mind splurging and I have without complaint but this was such a a disappointment. Most of the patrons were older and I had to wonder if management feels their expectations are lower? I will close by stating that wait staff and bartenders are top notch. Including Isiah from yesterday. Above and beyond even with a busy crowd. Never a complaint about the service. You are no longer my go to restaurant that I can depend on. Oh, had two drinks that were fine but the wine list is meh.

There are activities, arts and crafts, photo opportunities, bouncy houses and more! Activities are located outside in the parking lot outside the Marcus Pavilion and inside the Pavilion itself. The Marcus Pavilion was filled to the brim with educational booths and art/craft booths. My daughter and I attempted to try all of them, but it was so jam-packed we were only able to visit half. We ended up spending most of the time outside. She had a great time in a bouncy house and learning about the Fire Truck. There is a stage where performing groups ranging from elementary schoolers to senior groups showed off their stuff. I performed for the Fun Fair when I was in high school. Everyone did a great job. The only time I worried was for a brief second when elementary-aged kids were singing the normally inappropriate/sexual innuendo ridden song Greased Lightning. It turned out it was the kid friendly version. Phew. Wondering if there are food booths available? Of course! In addition to various activities there are food booths selling traditional fair food. Saint Martins, of course, has one. It was SO HOT last year I parked myself near the Saint Martins booth so I could get water and extra ice. My kid ate her weight in burgers, elephant ears, and snowcones. We would have stayed for the parade had I known there was one. The parade is on the second day and closes the event. I will definitely be sure to see it this time! The Lacey Spring Fair is AMAZING. Definitely try to go on both days, if you are able! The Lacey Spring Fun Fair 2013 will be on May 18 - 19. The parade starts at 6 pm on Sunday the 19th.

My family was visiting from California and went here with my husband and son while I unfortunately…read morehad to work. Apparently their first visit was so good that my husband kept insisting we needed to come back together because he was convinced I would love it. He was right lol. We came on a Friday morning around 11am and this place was PACKED. The parking lot was full and there were so many people inside that I was expecting us to have to wait awhile, especially since we were a party of 7. Thankfully, they actually had a table available and seated us pretty quickly in a corner. My only complaint is that it does feel pretty cramped inside. There are a lot of back-to-back booths and tables close together, and some of the walkways are really narrow. I'm personally not a huge fan of the space, but everything else about our experience made up for it. Our server was really friendly and attentive, especially considering how busy they were. All of our orders and requests came out correct, and she still stopped by to check on us in a timely manner. We never felt forgotten even though she was clearly busy. We ordered a basket of fries for everyone to share while waiting for our food and OMG THE RANCH. We don't know what they do to their ranch here but it was SO GOOD. You have to try it!! Everyone at the table agreed that their food was delicious. Ironically, I didn't even order breakfast lol. I got the fish & chips and they were spectacular! The batter was nice and crispy while the fish inside was perfectly flaky. The tartar sauce was really good with it too. And the portions are HUGE. I couldn't even finish mine and ended up taking the rest home to eat for dinner later, so I basically got two meals out of it. It was super filling and satisfying and still tasted amazing later after throwing in the air fryer. The prices seemed pretty fair too, especially considering how much food you get. I definitely don't mind paying when I'm getting a portion big enough to become another meal later. So yeah... my husband was right and I'm glad he made me come here! Good food, huge portions, friendly service even when they're slammed, fair prices, and ranch that I would genuinely come back for. I think Martin Way Diner is officially our new go-to breakfast place now. Next time I'll actually order breakfast haha.

Martin Way Diner did not disappoint! We popped in for…read morebreakfast, and although the diner was busy, we did not have to wait to be seated. This was our first time at Martin Way Diner. When we first walked in, it felt like a classic diner. And it is! In all the good ways. The diner is clean, the coffee is hot and flavorful, and the portions are generous. My husband had the Build Your Own omelet, topped with Jack Cheese. And they did not skimp on the ingredients. The cheese was nice and gooey, and the flavors melded perfectly. I had the French Toast. Again, generous portions, and the slices were thick and perfectly battered. Not soggy, slightly crisp. And the syrup was warmed! Sometimes it is the little things. The bacon was crisp, just how I had ordered it, not limp, and the eggs were cooked to perfection. Our server was Shawna, and she was personable and perfectly attentive. We were seated where we could observe the cooks, and they functioned like a well-oiled machine. All in all it was a good experience, and I would highly recommend. An added bonus: there are glass partitions between the booths. It really helps keep the noise level down. This was much appreciated and I wish more restaurants would do this. The next time we are at this end of town, we will be back.

These tots were not greasy, as crunchy as they could have been and so tasty. Friendly service from the server with the cool short blonde hair and the rest of the team as well.

My husband and I are huge McMenamins fans and…read morethis was one we hadn't been to yet - perfect opportunity to get our McMenamin's passport stamped! The vibe here is identical to all of the other McMenamin's properties. Low lighting, eclectic, and lots of original components. So cool to see the pictures here from back in the day with little changed in the space! The barback here is super cool and you can tell it's original. Our waitress was great - she was nice and huge shoutout to her for recognizing we had our passports because we almost forgot to get them stamped (hate to say we do this pretty often). I always get their hazy IPA, it never disappoints. They also usually have good cider options for my husband which is always a relief since he can't do beer much anymore. The food at any of their properties is always pretty solid and that was true here as well. I went pretty basic and just got a cheeseburger, but it was delicious! Cooked perfectly and packed with flavor. Stoked that we finally checked out this location - we'd definitely return if we were in the area again.
