We had just finished wine tasting near Yakima and we wanted to do some shopping before dinner. A pet peeve of mine is that many stores on the east side of the state are not open after the wineries close (at 5 or 6pm) and closed on Sunday. I really don't get this, everyone needs a day off and time for church, but I wonder if the stores would be more successful if Monday was their day off instead of Sunday when the tourists are in town. Anyways, I digress, Gretchen was just closing at 5 pm and we drove up and she stayed open for us. I found a gorgeous knit dress in two seconds and ended up buying a great sweater for work and fabulous scarf in addition. Gretchen was so nice and easy to talk to as I looked through her tastful clothing. She suggested some items for me to try (really cute) and we talked about brands that we love. If you are going to be in Yakima - do not miss this boutique! Also, please note that although the address above is correct, iphone did not take me directly to the store but had me turn onto 8th. Be patient and drive around the block until you find it - you won't regret it!

The selection here is solid, with much of the same stuff, though with a smaller footprint then you'd find at a Dick's Sporting Goods. We've always had pretty good luck finding standard athletic apparel, cleats and most of our winter needs here. Recently they were one of the only places in town that actually had sleds when there was snow outside. The prices here are always competitive and they tend to have pretty good weekly sales. While I've never done it, it's also the sort of place that would probably match prices from other stores if you asked them about it. Bottom line - they're worth checking out for just about anything sports related

The cafe, where all the ice cream and treats are found, is in the back of the store through a doorway on the right. Milkshake, Huckleberry, Large 24oz ($8.50*) - I'm not sure if they make their ice cream in house. Probably not**, but the milkshake is pretty tasty, studded with plenty of little flecks of blue/black colored berries. The consistency is perfectly drinkable and it's not too sweet. I saw them pouring in milk and scooping tons of ice cream into the blender - the milkshake probably has more ice cream included than even a double scoop cone. The milkshake is delightfully fruity flavored, kind of like blueberry, but also a little different. Just the day before drinking this milkshake, I foraged huckleberries near Mt. Rainier (red and several types of blue), and I can say that it also doesn't taste exactly like a fresh huckleberry, but the ice cream still tastes great in its own way. (4/5) *There is something funky going on with their accounting. A large milkshake (sans whipped cream) should be $8.50 according to the menu displayed at the counter. Their address indicates they are in Enumclaw, so adding a 8.9% Enumclaw sales tax should be $9.26. I was charged $9.49, plus an additional 33 cent service charge (they have a label at the front counter stating they charge a 3.5% service fee for credit cards so that's not an issue). I gave them a call after noticing this discrepancy and they told me that the large milkshake is actually $8.75 since they raised prices two months prior (and didn't update their menu...) and the extra $0.74 is tax. That's equivalent to a 8.5% sales tax, which no jurisdiction in either King County nor Pierce County charges. There's something strange going on and their explanation in the call makes no sense. **Based on my research, I believe the ice cream they use is from Cascade Glacier, which is a blueberry ice cream base with huckleberry flavoring. Any place with unethical or dishonest behavior automatically gets a 1 star review. For Wapiti Outdoors, in the best case scenario, they, for some inexplicable reason, decided not to update their electronic signboard to reflect their latest pricing AND they didn't set up their POS system to calculate sales tax correctly. In the worst case scenario, they are actively scamming their customers. Bathrooms - One unisex room
