Our cappuccinos were served right away and hit the mark. My granddaughter loved the blackberry lemonade. While great food is always welcome, what makes this cafe stand out is the community vibe and the warm, professional, and ever-so-helpful staff. From the moment we walked in until we felt right at home and cared for. This cafe is truly a gem and we look forward to coming back the next time we are at The Gorge.

Welcome to the best kept secret in ktown…read more Kittitas Cafe is doing so many things right I'm not quite sure where to start!! Location is perfect, far enough off the freeway that I hope they don't get picked over by the crazy gorge groups from concerts, but perfectly nestled on the main strip in Kittitas. Indoor and outdoor (temperature controlled and covered) seating. Super clean inside with perfect music for breakfast and lunch vibes. Service is super friendly, staff seems genuinely happy to be on their team. Also quick getting our food and espressos. The food is phenomenal, I got the winter goddess special - think ciabatta bread, fresh hot and flavorful turkey with crispy lettuce and garlic aioli. This should be a standard on their menu, so delicious!!!! Excellent job KC, will be back for more thank you!!

This diner appears to have opened in the 1920's based on the charming art deco bar, booths and cabinetry. There is some additional seating up front which is not technically period appropriate, but it's low key and neutral enough that it doesn't spoil the atmosphere. I recommend sitting at the counter for the full diner experience. The menu has all the usual, with options for smaller sizes and individual items à la carte, which helps to keep prices down and avoid food waste. Did I mention, they have great coffee? Tastes like what I would make at home. They serve it in heavy porcelain mugs in the shape of the traditional Victor diner ware mug, but sized up for modern sensibilities.

Thank you so much River House for such a great wedding experience!

A friend & I decided to drive east today and see where we'd end up…read more We took route 2 and found ourselves in the gorgeous little town of Index, WA. You cross an amazing little suspension bridge over the Skykomish River, and there stands The River House Cafe. A charming spot that caters to rafters, adventures, and diners alike. The salmon burger was pretty good, but the atmosphere of being surrounded by the Cascades--Mt Index is just a few miles away-- and the rushing Skykomish river just beyond the Cafe's deck was delightful. Who knew Index would be a destination?

Very quaint, cozy and friendly. Being Mother's Day the whole family came to see Carla. Great atmosphere absolutely loved the food and got pie to go. Highly recommend this place as a place to stop for breakfast or lunch. We will definitely time it to try the lunch menu next. Might have to bring my mug to leave behind for the next trip.

Listen to me--get the pie. I don't care what kind of pie it is; just do it…read more We had breakfast, and pie with ice cream. My eggs were perfectly cooked, the toast was warm and decently buttered, the hashbrowns were crispy and greasy, and the bacon and chicken fried steak were mediocre. The bumble berry pie was outstanding. That might have been the best pie crust subs ever tasted. Service was excellent from beginning h to end. The place is a five in the middle of no where, but it's clean. The only bathroom is the porta potty out back; there's hand sanitizer, but no sunk to wash hands.

Definitely ordering this again!

The grilled potato's were crispy and smoky filled with grilled bacons' meaty aroma. Grilled mushrooms were smoky and tender. If the over easy egges could have been cooked less would be better. The honey butter mixture was not overly sweet, the butter and honey perfectly mixed together as a great topping for the crispy outside and tender inside waffles. They offered maple syrup on the side as well. The Irish coffee was filled with the aroma of the Irish whiskey but not overpowering by it. It was a great blend. The server was so friendly, hospitable, helpful, totally recommend you!

I appreciate their large selection of items like medicines, tooth paste etc if you have forgotten.

Not only is this place beautiful, the wait staff is absolutely cream of the crop. Old fashions, margaritas, steak frites, artichoke, wedge salad, burgers, need I say more??
