The food is amazing and the service exceptional. The vintage diner vibe totally authentic. We went out of our way to stop here and I highly recommend you do the same. read more

Was in the area, decided to try this place. I got the Monte Cristo sandwich, the rest of my family got burgers. We all got milkshakes. The food was good diner/pub grub food. The milkshakes were really good. We decided to eat outside, which meant ordering from their "to go"window. The lady was cool, and adjusted our burger orders to match what they have on the menu to make things a little less cost. (A plain burger has a name, my kid ordered the more expensive with more toppings burger). We sat outside, it was ok. A restaurant across the street blocks the view of the mountain. There is some dingyness to the area and exterior walls, fence and neighbors. It wasn't uncomfortable for me, but I could see how some folks might be uncomfortable. I would go back to this place without a problem, but I am not going to be making any special trips to eat there. read more

We stopped here on a whim while heading to Rainier and quickly realized we came a across a hidden gem. To begin, the service was super friendly. We were helped out super quickly and they were so patient. They also had a lot of different food options. I tried the burger and it was solid, but I think what really stood out was the tater tots. Those were the best tots I've had in a while. Their pricing is also really good. The restaurant also has a really cool and unique vibe. For parking we found street parking right outside. read more

Friendly and food was on point! Our server, gosh I can't remember her name, was so friendly (and frankly, so was everyone else). But she took care of us really well! We had received some frozen mozzarella sticks, she profusely apologized and then comped us for them. All with a cheerful attitude and great smile I had their fish and chips and was immediately sold with the first bite! Savory, tasty, and crispy! What more do ya want?! Tartar sauce was also great and I'm not normally a fan! My fam had burgers and a Caesar salad with grilled chicken, it was all delicious! I know I'm gushing but I can see why this is a well reviewed place. Give them a try, worth it. Happy eating, - Fj read more

Food was pretty good, i got the chicken dinner, husband got the potroast big servings, great prices and the best waiter ever!

We stopped by around 830am-9am on a Sunday with our 2 kids. It's a small Cafe ,decorated in old Eatonville sports memorabilia. The ambiance was cute, cozy and quiet. We ordered apple juice ,coffee, the Cruiser Country Benedict, Cruiser Scrambler and a half order of biscuits and gravy. The portions were big, so I shared the scrambler with my 1.5yr and 5yr old. It was the perfect portion for all 3 of us. My husband enjoyed his country Benedict and we were given fresh homemade jam for our toast. Everything was delicious and the service was great as well. read more

Really affordable, homey diner! We stopped here on the way back to Seattle from Mt. Rainier. After balking at food prices in the park, and on the way out of the park, it was a relief to find Cruiser Cafe. The service was excellent and helpful and the food was delicious! read more

Know what you're coming here for. If you want swanky avocado toast, don't bother. If you want homestyle breakfast, burgers, or appetizers, you're in luck! This fine establishment embraces the history of the area and delivers solid food every time. The service is good, with pagers available so you can wait in your car if you order to-go. The ambiance is really authentic, the building decorated with the history of the area. Good American style food, decent prices, will be back. read more

This is diner food. Hands down, the best diner food in this lovely town of Eatonville... and possibly the surrounding area. The place looks like an old house, that was converted into a restaurant space, probably because it was, and that's okay, because the place is pumping out solid food for all the people coming back from, or going to Mount Rainier. We came here because we were hungry coming back from Paradise, and all we wanted was a darn good burger, crinkle cut fries, and milkshakes. They have all that and more... I had a well portioned and wonderful tasting sandwich, the kiddo had probably one of the best grilled cheese, and wife had a soup/salad. Everything was just delicious, and yes, as others have stated, it takes a while for the food to show up. That's okay, because you know they are taking their time, either because the kitchen is small, or they are making it to order... but who cares, when it gets delivered to your seat, it's hot and wonderful. The service is also exactly what you want, simple, no frills, and perfection. They do care about you being happy, and will do what they can to make sure you are delighted, which I felt like they came by exactly the number of times I would have wanted, and by the time we left, our bellies were ready for the long drive back to Seattle. So there it is, a great pit-stop for food that plates you food worthy of being near our pretty mountain. read more

Great food for the price, very economical!! Enjoy my Chicken Chipotle Wrap, and the fish and chips were good as well! The service was the best part, their staff are incredibly kind and treat you like family, making for a pleasant experience. Definitely recommend stopping for lunch when making travels to Rainier! read more

We stopped here before a visit to NW trek and enjoyed our meal. I got a teriyaki hamburger with no bun and tater tots. The hamburger itself was seasoned nicely but the tots could have used some more seasoning and maybe a few minutes longer in the fryer. My mom got a French dip and said it was pretty standard but still good. She really enjoyed the au jus. We did originally come here for breakfast but they must only do that on the weekends or something because they weren't offering it at 11am on a weekday. The service was super friendly and the prices way more affordable than most places. They also have a selection of cakes and ice cream. Worth a visit if you're in the area! read more

I've had an assortment of different items and very one single one has been delicious. My fav is the fire drill burger with a chicken breast. The salads are also amazing and I have friends that drive from far away to have their fish and chips. 5 stars all the way. Worth the drive read more

After spending the morning climbing the mountain, a friend and I decided to stop here for a bite to eat. We arrived around 2pm on a Saturday and we were seated right away when we walked in. The Cafe is small and quaint, with approximately 10 tables or so. Our serve was kind and patient throughout the entire experience. I ordered The Coach burger and the Tomato Tortellini Soup; both items were made to perfection. Their crinkle cut fries are the best and their house made ranch is very good. I can't wait to return again. Cheers! read more

We were in Ashford for the weekend for our anniversary and on our way home we were looking for somewhere good to eat so we looked up reviews and thought we'd try Cruisers. We came in and they have a little gift shop with candles, cups, and wax melts that are all made locally, which we love to be able to support someone local. The cups are tumbler type cups and some that are like mason jars. Great way to support a local business and get some good food. We had Andrew has our Waiter and he was kind, kept checking on us, was quick to get us anything we needed, and did a great job. We got the school burger and Ruben sandwich, both were great. We had a huckleberry and a banana shake to go with our meal and enjoyed everything. We will for sure come back and try some other yummy food. read more

Stopped in on a Monday after the lunch rush when we were in the area at NW Trek. People still inside and outside eating (outside order at window). Parked on street in front of restaurant. 2 adults and 2 kids! Had a little wait for a table inside (open tables outside) and ordered quickly - this restaurant has a great jr. Cruisers kids menu! Lots to choose from (burger, chicken strips, fish n chips, pasta with sauce, etc) kids ordered chicken strips and pasta with sauce (+meatball). Both kids enjoyed their meals! Adults each got a wrap, plenty of food! Cobb chicken wrap with green salad and chicken bacon ranch wrap with potato salad. Kid got a side of ranch, I ordered extra bleu cheese. Food was fresh and made to order and came out quick. Pleasant service with great hospitality! Kids enjoyed the 25 cent candy machine on the way out. Recommend for a great bite in the eatonville area! read more

I absolutely love to come here to eat, everyone is friendly. I have great service and I can't complain about that. The other day when I came in, to eat, I ordered the chopped steak dinner which claimed to have a half a pound of meat and other items included for $18.99. Unfortunately the hamburger patty was so thin, It looked like it had been incinerated. It looked like one of those preformed patties you buy in a frozen package at Walmart. It did not look like real meat and it did not taste like real meat and no way that was a half a pound of meat . There was no life left in it. No juice, It was dry and actually inedible. The green beans looked like the air had been let out of them and they were wrinkled up prunes on my plate. The baked potato was good. The garlic toast was good, the salad good. But at the end of the day, I spent $24 on a lifeless unsatisfying meal. I highly recommend you get real meat and hand form the Patty for the dinner... It's so obvious that those are package Frozen patties and they're not good. read more

The burger and fries are excellent and the women in the front of house are so nice and the atmosphere was really homey. My mom got some berry pie to take home, she loves this place. Jessica is a great waitress. read more

This is our favorite spot in town. Life time residents, life time customers! Our favorites are the Rootbeer and huckleberry milkshakes and either the cranberry turkey croissant or the cold meatloaf sandwich with tots. Our kids love the chicken tenders and fries and also the varsity burger. It's nice to come to a place where everything stays the same! Feels like coming home! read more

Best Fish n chips in town, great milkshakes. Quaint little mom and pop restaurant. Quick service.

Great food, service and great ambiance! Don't forget to try their milkshake and tater tot's. We will definitely go again!

Great food, and super fast service with a great old school feel and a large milkshake menu.

Good food, service, choices, atmosphere and prices. Easy parking. Great people. Also when I left my card they kept it in their safe for two days until I could get back there to pick it up. Handed me the card one half hour before opening on Memorial Day. read more

We are visiting from Missouri and went here because of the positive reviews. Holy moly, we were not disappointed. Delicious food for all 4 of us, including entrees AND milkshakes, friendly service, and reasonable prices. We have discussed flying back just to eat here again! read more

Service 10/10. Abby was so sweet and laid back. Food was probably some of the best we have had on our trip. (Been here a week moseying around the mountain/seattle/tacoma) wish we had found it earlier to try more things. Cute and cosy little spot. The bread and butter appetizer melts in your mouth and is perfect after a day of hiking. read more

Food was affordable and yummy! Service was good. Gluten free bun was a pleasant surprise!

Cute place named after the local high school with lots of memorabilia inside. Our waitress was super friendly and informative of the menu options. Despite being very busy she took her time and never seemed rushed. Kids rated the bacon as 9/10! They even have hand dipped milkshakes in which there are unlimited combo options- we got Oreo cookies with peanut butter. read more

We swung in and grabbed some shakes, soup, and pie to go. The food was great and service was amazing. I highly recommend Cruiser Cafe!

Little place in an old house. Fantastic food, great staff. We all loved it! Something for everyone.

Some friends and I spontaneously swung by on our way back from snowshoeing up at Rainier. We had been talking about huckleberry milkshakes almost the entire way down from the visitor center but then didn't really put much effort into finding a place that sold them until an ad played on the radio playing Kelis' "Milkshake" song from the early 2000's and we all decided we needed to find a place quick. We happened to be in Eatonville when this happened and one of my friends said there was a pretty good spot if we turned left immediately, so we did, and found ourselves at Cruiser Cafe. We ordered an assortment of shakes and sides - I got a pineapple shake, sweet potato fries with honey mustard, and a white chocolate cranberry cookie. All three hit the spot. We sat in the car and started munching on the sides, and the group consensus was that they were perfectly salted, crisp on the outside, soft on the inside, and paired with the sauces were just *chef's kiss.* The shake was also quite delicious, though I struggled to suck the pineapple chunks through the straw, so a wider straw would have been nice but luckily I wasn't driving so I was able to pop the lid off and pour the chunks into my mouth. I saved the cookie for later, but once I had it I wished I would have gotten two. It was a chunky cookie! No skimping on the cranberries or white chocolate chunks on this one! Will definitely stop by again next time I'm in the area. read more

Such a cute small town diner! Friendly staff, delicious unpretentious food and a cozy old school vibe. We loved the potato skins(actual peeled potato skins), the burgers, chicken fried steak and gigantic wraps. read more

Solid American Home cooking! I feel like places like this are a dying breed which is sad but gald for this place. The menu is quintessential American. Burgers, steaks, pastas, etc. I had chicken fried steak and it was terrific. Super crispy crust, the tender sreak inside. Not chewy or stringy, bravo. But the extras really set this place apart. First off, a mini loaf of bread included. It was soft and warm! Whipped butter. I can't even remember last time i got warm bread anywhere that wasn't $$$$. Dinner came with salad. Big portions. Ice tea with lemon. They brought out a fresh glsss refill without me asking. That's great service. Restaurant is a converted house, cute inside. Definitely recommend for good old home cooking. I wish i lived closer. Love to try breakfast here. read more

With many different and delicious burgers, sandwiches, soups, and salads to choose from, Cruiser Cafe is a must for good food and a pleasant atmosphere. The service is excellent and the menu offers a wide range of options from breakfast to dinner, with many vegetarian dishes as well. The milkshakes are delicious and served in the old style milkshake glasses with fresh new flavors. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a wonderful meal and a good time. read more

We just happened in and were very happy with our lunch. I had a spicy burger (name?) and it was delicious. Service was slightly overly attentive but that's not really a sin, right?. It's a tiny place but filled with a relaxed casual neighborly vibe. We'd definitely would go back read more

Super yummy cafe and great service. Would definitely come back here. Not many options for food in town, and this is definitely the best one there read more
