    Hummus Wrap
    Kaitlin C.

    5 stars for ambiance and atmosphere. They've got lots of outdoor seating, a great view, and live music! There are a few indoor tables for when the weather's bad. Lots of beer and drinks options. 0 stars for everything else. The line is forever line and barely moves. It took 30-40 minutes to get up to order. (Imagine if you only wanted another beer!) We ordered and got fries as our side. Waited another 30 or so minutes for our food and when I went to pick up was told "we can't sell fries anymore" which I think means they were out.... But bad on them for not knowing when to stop selling fries before you ordered. I specifically choose this spot because the fries looked better than the other options in Ashford and I just wanted some tasty fries. I got the hummus wrap which was about 3% hummus and 97% lettuce greens on a stale wrap. My husband's BLT was meh. Overall fine place if you want to hang out outside and drink. Otherwise the food and waiting game experience is not worth it.

    After running a 5K in nearby Ashford County Park, I drove over to Rainier BaseCamp Bar & Grill to grab a bite to eat. I had come by here earlier in the week to check out the sports store that is next door. BaseCamp announced that they would be open for all of us runners after the event. This place has a nice chili vibe to it. Basically you order at the window and they buzz you when your food is ready. You can sit anywhere outside to eat your food. The menu at Rainier BaseCamp Bar & Grill has a variety of options that include burgers, pizza and beer. They also have vegetarian and gluten-free items. I grabbed a Mushroom Swiss Burger and a local beer to reward myself for a good run. They have big community picnic tables to dine at, so I was able to make a couple of friends while eating. I had a nice time here and it was a good way to end my week exploring the Mount Rainier area. There is very little WiFi in Mount Rainier National Park and it can be spotty in the areas surrounding the park. Rainier BaseCamp was a good place for me to stop and connect outline so I could get some work done. Rainier BaseCamp also has live music and other events. They offer meal packages for hikers and climbers if you are planning a big hike in the park.

    Gross pizza

    Cool vibes and location. Horrible food. We got a pizza. Super doughy, low quality cheese and sauce. Took about 40 minutes to get it. Won't come back even tho food is hard to find in this area.

    Ashford is putting its big boy pants on. They have a burger and brew place now, with outdoor fireplaces and picnic tables. A tad expensive. Burgers are fine but fries were sad and very mid. This place will thrive because demand outstrips supply. Decent patio.

    Rainier BaseCamp is a super cute spot to hit up after hiking in the area. There's plenty of outdoor and indoor seating and the atmosphere is pretty casual. We ended up getting the turkey and smoked gouda club to split as well as an order of the truffle fries. The sandwich was good and everything on it tasted super fresh. The truffle fries were also really good and heavy on the truffle flavor, which I appreciated. They have a selection of wines and beers which you can drink outside until a certain point. We sat outside while we waited for our food with a beer and it was a super relaxing vibe. Service was also really kind. We'll definitely come back here to try more of the menu next time we're in town.

    Where do the compostable containers go?
    Stacy S.

    Great spot for lunch after hiking on the mountain. We enjoyed our burgers (meat for him, vegetarian for me). On a sustainability note, it's great to have compostable service ware... but only if there's a compost bin to put the items in. Maybe reusable would be an option?

    Rainier Basecamp is a regular stop for us on our way down from Mt Rainier. The staff is awesome, the food is fantastic (umm... woodfired pizza after a long hike washed down with a beer? Yes please!), and you couldn't ask for a cooler location! The entire footprint for Rainier Basecamp and Whittaker's Mountaineering and Bunkhouse takes me back to the community atmosphere we had while living in Germany. This is my favorite hangout in Washington State!

    Yum yum yum. After a long hike and day at Rainer I stopped here with a friend. I ordered a burger and it was so delicious. There was plenty of parking, seating, and things for you to do in the area. It's a "base camp" so you'll see hikers, guides, gear, dogs, children. The overall vibes felt very pnw. There's a bunch of great beer here as well. Especially from central Oregon so it was a pleasure to see a taste of "home" so far away from there. Would recommend to anyone after a hike or just passing through! They also have wifi so great to get things done before you get into the park where there's no wifi

    The location is fantastic but the veg burger and PB options were very disappointing. I gave three stars because the location is great!

    After waiting half an hour without service at another restaurant nearby, we were pleased with the fast service here. The food was decent.

    Papa Bears Restaurant and Lounge - Best corned beef hash I've ever had

    Parking in the front on the street or a few spots behind, if you get lucky. Seat yourself and you…read morewill be greeted quickly with menus. We come mainly for brunch on Saturdays at 11:00 am (occasionally Friday or Sunday) and sit in a booth. Here about every 6 to 8 weeks and shocked I haven't written a review yet! Server / main front of house person always remembers us and is kind and super friendly, even when she's busy. It's a diner with reasonable prices - I've had the breakfast sandwich, corned beef hash, mix of Ala carte side options, main breakfast with meat, omelette or scramble... my dad usually gets the 55+ 2 egg Denver omelette and my brother will change it up, too. It's also kid friendly, if you want to bring a kiddo. Food is always good, I try to remember not to eat a first breakfast at home in the morning when we come out so I'm hungry. Nice to have a regular spot to go to when we visit where we know the food will be good and the people are nice.

    Just passing through and stopped for breakfast. It's a diner type ambiance, with a counter area,…read morebooths, and tables, decorated with bears, woodsy things, and local pictures/memorabilia. Our server was friendly and efficient. It looks like she was the only server, with just one cook manning the kitchen during this mid morning time. My husband got the logger breakfast, which was way too much food for one person! He enjoyed what he was able to eat. I ordered the mama's portion of chicken fried steak and it was huge as well. It was ok, although I've had better. The meat was tender and easy to cut. She was happy to offer to make me a side salad instead of the higher carb hash browns and toast, so I appreciated that. Lots of locals came in to enjoy breakfast and were welcomed by name.
