Do you want to have the best corn dog of your life? If the answer is yes, then you should visit Bob's Espresso. Bob's is bucking the latest health trends and leaning into life's simple pleasures, namely their iconic dipped-meat-stick. In my opinion, their snowy little shack should be named after the dogs themselves, instead of the espresso. They do have a plethora of drinks that you can choose from, but I can't speak on those. I was locked in on the main prize all day, taking down two of these monster dogs. You'll immediately be taken back to a simpler time, maybe at a state fair or your local carnival, which was probably the last time you had one. Your impression of a corn dog is probably that it has too much breading, like a sausage wrapped in a pancake. But no, these are much more dog-forward. The batter is only a thin layer, making for an impeccable crunch on every bite. The inner-dog is flavorful and juicy. My only gripe is the lack of variety in sauces. I've proclaimed many times here that I am a sauce boi, so mustard and ketchup alone will not cut it. A mayo-based sauce would have taken this to the next level as a dog shop. But I can't take away points for that, since this is still the best of my life. A worthwhile stop after a day of hiking, skiing, or shameless indulgence. read more

Iced coffee was good, the parking was confusing. The corndog was good, batter could be thicker. Whom ever stabs the hot dog should figure out what part stabs. Service was great!! read more

As a SOBO PCT hiker from San Diego, trail name Smartacus, I've eaten some weird things out of ziplocks lately. So when a local told me the best corn dogs in Washington were right here, I was skeptical but starving. Turns out they were absolutely right. This place serves up golden, crispy, perfectly nostalgic corn dogs that hit harder than a summit sunrise. The batter is light but has that perfect crunch. The dogs are juicy and hot. I don't know what kind of sorcery they use, but I can say this: I considered ordering a second one before I even finished the first. They also have a great little setup with plenty of snacks, cold drinks, and that small-town welcoming vibe that makes you feel like you're not just another smelly hiker passing through. This isn't just a gas station stop. It's a morale boost in edible form. If you're hiking the PCT, road-tripping through the North Cascades, or just lucky enough to live nearby, do yourself a favor and grab a corn dog. Or two. Or five. Smartacus approved. Five stars. read more

We stopped here on a recommendation from family. They said to try 2 things: The infamous Corn Dog and a milkshake. The shakes are made with the great Cascade Glacier Ice Cream (I got the espresso one) and the corn dog is gigantic and the batter is just right. Both were fantastic. We had quick service and loved every bite and sip of these 2 decadent items. So delish! Now we have a new snack place to go to in the future when stopping at the rest stop. Great job Bob! Keep it up! read more

Bobs Espresso - Fresh corn dogs - American Near Me - Snoqualmie Pass, Washington

How have I not heard about this spot with the corn dogs across from Dru Bru before now?! I don't even know how I stumbled upon this secret, but I am so happy I did! I can only vouch for the corn dogs and nothing else, but they were delicious. This spot is right next to the Snoqualmie Pass bathrooms/rest stop. After hiking at the Pass this past weekend, we stopped by to use the public restrooms, grabbed some corn dogs, and walked across the street with them to Dru Bru and grabbed beers to go with them! I think the corn dogs were $4 each. The coffee stand had ice cream too! Definitely recommend stopping here when going through the Pass. Which honestly I go by here often! read more

i will start this off saying i LOVE corn dogs and i've tried all of them from frozen to carnival fresh to disney.... honestly this is meh for me. it was soooo oily which i get corn dogs are but this was SOOOO oily and tasted like old oil. I'd definitely want to try it again just cause there are so many good reviews but for me, i'd stick with my disney and carnival dogs. i do agree with the reviews that this batter was so crispy, light and not thick like most but it was ayyy too oily for me and i seriously don't get disgusted easily by this but it was super oily . read more

Great coffee great corn dogs amazing service! You also can't beat the views! I wasn't expecting such a small place to have so many options! But they have an abundance of flavors for coffee, they have milkshakes, ice cream, and of course their famous corn dogs. read more

Bobs Espresso - American Near Me - Snoqualmie Pass, Washington

Best corn dogs anywhere, hot, crispy and huge. We have even driven to the pass specifically to get them as a treat and usually stop when coming over the pass. The service is always friendly too. The ice cream and expresso are great as well, but it's the corn dog's that keep us coming. Also conveniently located next to the public restrooms and mini mart. read more

Great service. Delicious hand dipped corn dogs and milkshakes. A must stop for a quick bite to eat!

The corn dogs are amazing and the service is always very friendly. Just as of late, the place has been closed down. Not sure if it's due to staffing or other issues. I hope they stick around, it's a treat for me on the way over the pass twice a month. Maybe they need a sign if their hours of operations has changed so customers know? Or maybe update their hours on yelp or google? Best corn dogs around in my opinion. read more

Early Saturday morning. You're in dire need of a coffee. I pull in to Bob's Espresso because they have an open sign on in the window. I park and walk up to the window, and in spite of the sticker on the window indicating that the accept credit cards, I am immediately told that it is cash only. Since I had no cash I had to look for another place. Disappointing. read more

BEST CORNDOGS EVER!! WELL WORTH THE DRIVE! the quality of the beef and the breading if perfectly done and not to thick. planning to drive up this weekend read more

Holy smack a moly the coffee is decent but the hand dipped corn dogs are out of the solar system great!

Dang you, BOB and your delicious corn dogs! I'm assuming they are not gluten free- and after being gluten free for 3.5 months I broke down and had a few bites of this delicious corn dog my husband was chomping on. Literally the best corn dog of my life. A nice light layer of batter, very crispy and the dog itself was a huge meaty masterpiece. I was not expecting such a high meat to crust ratio, most corn dogs are mostly fluff with very little dog. This is mostly dog with a thinner magical greasy (but in a good way) crust. My husband likes the fluffy corn-bread style batter corn dogs, and wasn't a big fan of this crispy cornmeal batter, but he is weird and wrong. Came up to play in the snow with the kids, and wanted a coffee and Yelp directed me to this little gem! Had a soy latte as well and it was peachy keen. The toddler had a hot cocoa and it was served at perfect toddler temp, he sucked it down with the quickness so I'd assume that was yummy as well. read more

Boy, this place is a hidden gem! It's a tiny little shop right outside of a market. The coffee is deliciousss! Enough to have a long line of people standing outside waiting in the cold for it lol. They have a ton of flavors for the coffee & the corn dogs (forgot to take a pic) are incredible! They come out piping hot, which is the perfect way to fuel up and stay warm. A definite must try when in the area! read more

BEST! Corn dog ever.... Even at 9 am coffee was delicious as well, definitely recommend and would stop next time I'm in the area. Very friendly gal working read more

I love this place! They honestly have the best corn dogs around! I also like their italian sodas which go along well as a refreshing compliment to the heavy corndog. The only downside with this place is that the hours are never clear so today I asked them! The are open from 7-7pm Fri-Sun, until 4pm Mon-Tues, and until 6pm Wednesday and Thursday! :) And if all else fails you can call the nearby grocery store which owns the coffee stand. Enjoy!! read more

We tried to stop by here last month after reading reviews and hearing from a friend about the amazing corn dogs, but they were closed before. But today they were open! We braved waiting in the rain for 4 hot, huge, hand-dipped corn dogs for the family. They were worth the wait! Our daughter isn't a fan of corn dogs so opted for an enormous slice of pepperoni pizza from Pie for the People located inside Lee's Summit Grocery. It was a one-stop parking lot family feast! read more

Worst vanilla latte ever and the chia tea was so watered down. End up throwing it out at the Starbucks at truck stop in north bend. The corn dog was very greasy and tasted like the oil needs to be change, nevertheless a very disappointing purchases read more

Yum! 11:00 am breakfast! Corn dog and Americanos! Glad we stopped- thanks to other yelpers!

It's like having a state fair corndog w/o having to go to the state fair! $3 or so for each, made fresh!

Best corn dog ever!!! $2.75 for a giant, quality hot dog, hand dipped in a corn bread layer and cooked to perfection literally. Also the coffee is great. Don't think twice just show up here for a corn dog. read more

Stopped by at 9:30am this morning on our way home after a weekend in the pass. We had been told by numerous friends to grab a corn dog here, so decided to try even though it was so early. They were happy to make us two fresh corn dogs and we also grabbed a latte. The corn dogs took less than 5 minutes and were phenomenal. Warm, crispy, and the perfect amount of grease. The latte was also great, the shots weren't burnt at all. Will definitely be back here on every ski day and hike moving forward. read more

Bobs Espresso - GIANT CORNDOG!!! - American Near Me - Snoqualmie Pass, Washington

Just an update-they are still doing the corn dog (obviously a staple of our over the road truckers going over the Pass. Saw at least five stopping by while I was there. I went into the grocery behind to get some slices of pie (also excellent) for the fam and then rounded it off with a corn dog. At least as good as the ones at Disneyland (playground famous for them). That batter. read more

Shakes are amazing. And the corn dogs have the good quality meat and freshly dipped.

Best kept secret of Snoqualmie Pass! Whether you just finished a hike or ski, stop by for a delicious corn dog and a milkshake.

It had bee over two decades since I had been here. A friend and I were coming back from a church retreat in Ellensburg. I had previously told her that Bob's had the best corndogs. They are just like I remembered them. Still incredible. The best. She agreed and told me any time she drives over the pass, she will be stopping by. read more

We were staying at an AirBnb for a ski weekend and we were just hoping to find some good coffee. The coffee and hot chocolate here are legit awesome great drive up service, super quick and very good coffee for a coffee shack. What we weren't expecting was the corn dogs. Having read the reviews we wanted to try them out. I drove by in the morning to pick up coffee but they apparently don't make them until later in the day. (I mean, corn dogs for breakfast *is* kinda weird.) We came back later that day after skiing and picked some up... and... wow!... Best corn-dogs I've ever had. Most "fancy" corn dogs are all about the batter. These have a fairly thin layer of batter and it's perfectly crispy and flakey. The dog itself is fantastic and complements the batter perfectly. I know where we're going to grab lunch every day after skiing from now on. read more

This is a perfect place to stop and grab a pick me up whenever going over the pass. My sisters and I enjoy their coffee flavors and the Chi tea is tasty. I'm glad they finally accept credit and debit cards. read more

THE CORN DOG you have to try it!! It's worth driving for. So big, fresh, and everything you imagine In a corn dog. I have never had the coffee so no comment there read more

A corn dog is something I would never just order, let alone from a drive-up coffee stand. But this morning I stopped by Bob's Expresso on Snoqualmie pass to get a iced tea for the drive when I remembered friends always mentioning the hand dipped battered dogs. Sure enough, Brandi the barista said she could make it in one minute. And yes, it was a hand dipped deep fried, very tasty slightly crunchy corn meal crust on a huge fresh moist polish dog served piping hot. I was definitely surprised by how good it was and I was even more surprised that I never have tried one sooner. So when on Snoqualmie Pass, stop at Bob's Espresso, whether for coffee, tea or corndogs, you'll be glad you did... Ps. I just heard this stand also makes the best hand scopped ice cream milk shakes. read more

You MUST stop and get a corn dog from this place. Recommended by a local and it did not disappoint. ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS!

I went to this coffee shop being in desperate need of some coffee. I was disappointed that they didn't have white coffee or tea but I won't fault them on their lack of choices. What I will fault them on is first the lack of the baristas customer service. She was late greeting us to the window which made me question if this place was even open. Then she was rude when telling us she didn't offer white coffee or tea. What completely set me off and what prompted this review is something that others need to be aware of because it is absolutely disgusting. There were no customers prior to us arriving. When I asked for my drink, this barista grabbed a pitcher that was already full of milk that was on top of the espresso machine and used this to make my drink. This means the milk had just been sitting there for who knows how long! That is repulsive. I am so upset I wasted my money there to get a drink I didn't really want due to the lack of choices, deal with the bad attitude of this barista, and ultimately get a drink that I had to throw away. If you get stomach issues after getting a drink here, don't be surprised! I would recommend going to Red Mountain which is right next door instead! read more

Fun place, great, quick service. Nothing fancy but when you need caffeine it's a solid stop

Corn dogs are fresh, home made and delicious. Really glad I decided to try that instead of the over priced red mountain coffee place. Very nice girl that was working. Coffee was surprisingly good as well. My girlfriend loved the cider too! You gotta try the corn dog though. Great place for a nice quick stop on our road trip. read more
