    I was visiting the area and attended over the lunch hour this past weekend. Hands down one of the worst experiences I've ever had at a restaurant. The servers were incredibly kind and friendly, but the restaurant owner was a different story. We had a yummy basket of fries and a nice chat with our server. After receiving our pizza, both myself and my friend thought that the pizza tasted and smelled of cigarettes. The sauce was very acidic and chunky, and overall unpleasant to eat. We each tried one slice, I couldn't finish mine- before deciding that we really couldn't enjoy it. We let our server know as much and offered to pay for a half pizza/kids pizza (still paying as expected for the rest of our food/drinks), and he said that he would have to ask his supervisor about our request. When "JP" came out, it was clear he had been drinking. He became argumentative quickly- claiming that we just didn't understand how oven fired pizza was supposed to taste, that we were clearly trying to dine and dash, and eventually told us to just "see what happens" and to not pay and leave. He took a photo of us which we asked him to delete (he didn't- he posted us on the business Facebook page- see attached, I've removed my friend's face) and told us he could do "anything he wants" since he was the owner. In all of the breath he spent yelling at us, he could have offered a better solution, or just kindly told us there was nothing he could do. I asked the server if we could just pay and move on- he told us it was fine/on the house, and it seemed like dealing with a drunk for a boss wasn't out of the ordinary. I am sorry to see this kind of unprofessional behavior from someone who claims to have been in the restaurant industry over 30 years. Save your time and the headache and go to Meza or Three Fingered Jack's. We had an excellent experience and enjoyed the food immensely at both locations.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Pet friendly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Food is nicely spiced. Honey cider was tasty but had a weird finish. Friendly staff.

    A 5 star experience from the moment we walked in and were warmly greeted. Service was unbeatable. Coffee was abundant which is exactly what we were hoping to find. The breakfast options were excellent making it hard to choose. Each of us thoroughly enjoyed our selections and noted the fresh ingredients. They also had Bloody Mary and other options to kickstart the day. We will be back next time we visit our son who just moved to Winthrop.

    It was starting to get hot out so we decided to find a spot with air conditioning and a cold drink. This was the only place open. Unfortunately they did not have air conditioning, the front door was open with a fan blowing in hot outside air; it also allowed for flies to enter. We sat at the bar and ordered drinks, the staff was very preoccupied with "other" things .. and it took a bit of time to get a drink. In fact my girlfriend ordered and her drink was delivered and it took an additional 10 minutes for him to take my order (just to clarify we were sitting right next to each other). They were out of my first choice, although it was still on the menu and the tap handle was right in front of me.. so I went with my second choice. We finished our drinks, paid up and left.. the no air conditioning and flies were too much.

    Great food! Owners were awesome. We were the only ones there to start and then they got really busy all at once!! They did an amazing job... pulled pork sandwich was amazing!!!!!

    This spot lives up to all the reviews and should be a spot for a quick dinner and drink after surveying the local area. First, the place is a bit small with a small menu, and by the time we had arrived there were some menu items that were gone for the day. But, that didn't stop our fun and made us know the food must be worth it. I enjoyed the cider flight to be able to try all the different options. I'm not sure which was my favorite, but I definitely loved the Pinnacle Goat & the Honey Bear. The Pinnacle's ginger flavor is very forward, but not overbearing. The Honey Bear is quite sweet, but not too much to enjoy more than one. I was quite impressed by the rib dinner. It included a sizable portion of meat with 2 sides and small dish of bbq sauce. The meat was smoky and had rich, with the bbq sauce adding a great glaze of sweetness. Although the server tried to warn me, I couldn't resist the Mac-and-cheese, which wasn't the best choice. I hear the onion rings are the better side option, but I did enjoy the slaw for a light refreshing bite after the heavy pasta and meat. Overall, I would send anyone to visit the Ciderhouse on a trip to the area.

    What an adorbssss little spot just outside of downtown Winthrop. This place was within walking distance of where we were staying, and not too busy when we arrived around 8pm on a Saturday evening. We were greeted by the owner and friendly staff, and found a front row picnic table in the cider garden for a great view of the band. We opted for a couple of yummy microbrews, while we watched the band as the sun set. We even played a game of cornhole to end the fun evening. I especially loved that they had a nice campfire roaring for all to enjoy. Their menu looked tasty, too. We'll definitely plan to get here earlier and grab dinner on the next trip.

    I first came here two years ago and this was a welcome haven after driving through the North Cascades. I was happy to return, and had two meals here that were just as enjoyable. THE ATMOSPHERE IS JUST RIGHT. You instantly feel comfortable and welcome walking in. The deck and outdoor areas are lovely and even inside the décor is pretty neat. The staff were all quite young and a little stilted, though very well meaning. Add some of their homemade ciders to the scene and you're in for an enjoyable time. DON'T SKIMP ON BREAKFAST. For dinner, the mozzarella sticks were delicious and my partner was very happy with his sandwich. Unfortunately they were out of the vegan sausage so I had to opt for pizza which was just alright. Breakfast is where this place shined (see breakfast menus attached), with delicious hashbrowns, omelets, and chilaquiles which I suspect are made with doritos! The only thing that could have been improved about breakfast is if they had a vegetarian bean option. I just plain enjoy the vibe here.

We waited in line for about 15 minutes before one of the workers let everyone know that one person should order while the other secures a table. I came with my mom and my boyfriend, so we made sure we all communicated what we wanted before I had my mom find us a table. Luckily, she was able to grab an outdoor seat with an amazing view of the blueberry farm. We waited about 10 minutes for our food to arrive. It was a little strange getting our pies before our breakfast, but it was fine since the breakfast came about 10 minutes later. We really enjoyed the breakfast, it was delicious, but it was definitely on the heavier side. Between the gravy and everything else, we were feeling a serious food coma afterward. The desserts were interesting. We enjoyed the blueberry pie, but the texture of the banana cream pie was a little off for us. It almost felt like whipped butter. The blueberry juice was delicious! We would've bought some to take home, but the line was way too long and we didn't feel like waiting again. Overall, the food was good, but the process of finding a table and ordering seemed confusing for a lot of people behind us. I would totally come back again. I'd love to try blueberry picking next time! When we visited, it was $3.50 per pound.

Wait in a ridiculous line and pray you can even find a table. If you do manage to find a table, expect to be bumped, a lot. It's so incredibly cramped that you feel like you're being held hostage. The food is not worth the wait. It's incredibly mediocre, even by way of breakfast food which is incredibly difficult to mess up. Stale coffee, canned drinks, just nothing really special about the food in any way, shape, or form. The views are great. That's all I have to say in terms of the positive. Overall, this is not a place I will be giving my business to again, nor will any of my family, who are all Chelan County locals. We're not the only locals to avoid this place, either. The egregious waits and bland food we could deal with, but the business's online conduct and the way they choose to represent themselves have made this an absolute no-go.

The frittata was packed with feta cheese, making it wonderfully savory, rich, and creamy. It was so much better than the brunch we had at another spot the day before! My friend ordered the Gutbuster, which was a hearty, delicious scramble-style dish. Looking around, it seemed like a lot of other tables were ordering pancakes or bagels as sides, which looked amazing too. Definitely stop by this cafe for a perfect, budget-friendly brunch during your trip!

And, let's be honest *checks map* there are not a lot of dining options in Mazama! In fact, earlier in the day, we actually popped in to ask if they took reservations (they don't) and to get a sense of the best time to arrive for dinner. The staff was super helpful and suggested coming around 5/5:30pm to beat the crowds. We followed their advice and showed up just after 5:30 and sure enough, there were still some tables available both inside and outside. We chose a shaded outdoor table and then placed our order at the register/bar. I went with the poke bowl because... of course I did. The portion size was generous, so generous that I couldn't finish it (probably because I had already devoured a massive pulled pork sandwich earlier at the Mazama Store... no regrets). The fish was fresh and the flavors were great. Service was impeccable. Everyone we interacted with was friendly yet efficient. Prices were also very reasonable especially for a relatively remote mountain town. While I didn't have any of the beers, there are plenty of craft brews available. All in all, Mazama Public House is a gem of a spot nestled in one of Washington's most scenic areas. Whether you're a hiker, cyclist, or just passing through, I highly recommend stopping in for a great meal and good vibes!
