We were in town for the first time, and my husband was looking up dinner places. The name of this…read moreplace excited him so much that he decided to surprise me by not telling me where we were going. He could not be more hype about an average diner called 'Big Scoop'. The area has some parking spots, but when we arrived, all the parking spaces and all the tables were taken. They were quite busy for a Wednesday evening. When we arrived, we had no idea what to do. Do we sit ourselves? Do we wait to be seated? Do we place an order at the counter and then sit? There was no signage and no greeting to inform us. So we stood there, feeling silly and out of place, for a good few minutes, before one adult staff member approached the counter to punch an order into a computer and literally said to us, 'I don't have time to talk to customers right now, sorry.' Ooooookay we'll just keep standing here. Eventually, our waitress/savior Kate greeted us, sat us at a table, and gave us menus. She was younger, upbeat, kind, and apologetic for the confusion. We looked over the menu, and a third staff member came by to take our order. I ordered the Big Scoop cheeseburger basket with fries & my husband ordered the hot ham & cheese with fries. The hot ham & cheese was your average grilled cheese with a protein. Nothing special. The burger was good, but nothing special there either. You'll notice that the other half of the menu is all. ice. cream. Just options and options of different ways to order your ice cream; the flavors are listed on the wall, not on the menu. They are happy to make any changes or customizations to your ice cream order. IMO the menu was overwhelming with no easy way to sort or compare options, so it needs an overhaul in the way it's presented. We ended up getting the #13, Sweet Superstitions, with the flavors Moose Tracks & chocolate peanut butter ice cream scoops. Again, nothing special here; the two cherries promised in the menu was just one cherry cut in half, and the peanuts were stale. The fudge wasn't hot either. For a place called Big Scoop, we got pretty small scoops of ice cream. When we checked out at the counter, Kate helped us out again. She was very encouraging and was so excited to have us in town for the tulip festival. I hope Kate gets a raise or goes far in life! Overall, a fun memory but an underwhelming experience in terms of service and flavor.

So many variety of ice creams and burgers available at this place. I like their huckleberry ice…read morecream which I can't find anywhere close to where I live. So when I'm in Mountain Vernon, I have to stop by this place and have a scoop or a pint to go. The staff at the front is usually very friendly and courteous. They seem to hire teenagers or young adults and they are on top of it. The pricing is reasonable, the ingredients are fresh. First time ordering a burger here, I got the junior cheeseburger with onion rings and huckleberry milkshake. Milk shake came right out and yummy. The burger took a while. Recommended!

This might just be my favorite grocery store in existence…read more Everything I could ever need is in between this four wall, two story building. This co-op in Skagit is filled with healthy alternatives, fresh produce, and even a juice/coffee/snack bar serving up some delicious bites. I found a number of local products and beers to buy from the grocery side, and a mushroom sandwich. I cannot properly describe the deliciousness of this sandwich - you just had to be there. I also loved that the co-op's second story is filled with the most unique home and gift items you'll find. Everything is sustainable first, and they even have a decent book selection. Couldn't imagine a better place to spend my Saturday, just wish I lived closer so I could visit every weekend.

I saw the building on our way into town for visiting the tulip fields. It caught my eye, so my…read morehusband and I stopped by afterward to check it out. It's a neat grocery store with fresh build-your-own sandwich options, bakery treats, gifts and trinkets, wines, and a lot more. We ordered sandwiches from the kiosk where it prints a ticket to bring to the counter. You can purchase other items with your sandwich, too. We had ordered two pineapple conchas from the dessert case for a post-lunch dessert. The veggies on the sandwich were so fresh it hit the spot for a light midafternoon meal. There is an upstairs seating area, it's really quiet and private. After we ate our lunch, we looked at some trinkets in the gift shop that's upstairs too. It truly has it all!

Made a quickpit stop after lunch to grab some donuts from Lafeens Donuts Ice Cream and Espresso…read more Their OG shop, Lafeens Family Pride Donuts and Ice Cream, is in Bellingham. We dropped in on a Saturday afternoon (1:15pm). It's pretty barren inside but there are a couple picnic tables outside. Donut prices range from $0.99 USD to $3.69 USD. They also have drinks and 8 ice cream options. If you pay with cash, you don't get charged the service fee (3.70%). - Blueberry fritter ($3.29 USD) - second time I've found a place that does blueberry fritters. My favourite donut from the bunch. - Buttermilk bar ($2.59 USD) - nice bite, would order this again. - Lemon filled ($2.59 USD) - filling was better than the raspberry but the texture wasn't satisfying. - Raspberry filled ($2.59 USD) - filling was okay. - French crueller ($2.29 USD) - light and airy. Would come back for more of Lafeens donuts.

We've been going there for years. Sadly, they no longer offer ice cream cones (just ice cream in pints and quarts) - they explained to me that they were overwhelmed by people who just wanted ice cream, and that it made it hard to sell fish. The penalty of popularity. If you need fish, whether to consume nearby, or to take home on ice, this is a great place to buy it - conveniently located on route 20, not far from I-5.
