The address is the associated Brewmaster's Taproom, which has an ever-rotating lineup of two-dozen-plus craft beers and ciders. The taproom has a -table- of goods from the Brewmaster's Bakery, unless I've eaten them all. The bakery also has a pop-up that travels around, to places like the tiny farmers' market outside Virginia Mason hospital in Seattle's First Hill neighborhood.)

I was apprehensive to try another cbd product because they never seemed to work, but man does she do her research here - I bought these at a farmers market in SLU twice, and while I have enough, I'm considering getting another bag next week just so I can keep one in the trunk for "emergencies". In short, don't hesitate here - great product, great people. Even if you tried them elsewhere, these are bound to work far better, and at a much better value (and local too!).

Owned by Nathan and Karen Bainbridge, PMP inhabitants the strategic and beloved location in Renton's Downtown area on 3rd Avenue and Main. This is the spiritual homebase of the PMP brand, and Renton residents, and diners, are glad its here. Their unique pies are formed by hand from machines that are, literally, over 100 years old. But PMP puts their own modern twist to the classics. They have both savory and sweet pies. I particularly enjoyed their Guiness Sheppard's Pie with a generous portion of mashed potatoes and lager based gravy. A tasty side salad is recommended to keep you honest as you cleanse your palate for other offerings. Adult beverages for your order? Along with being available in their main dining area, PMP has a special bar area with screens available for local sports broadcasts! Need a cocktail?? Specialty spirits along with a few choice microbrews on tap. How about a dessert pie? Well you must enjoy my personal favorite of their berry cobbler with a scoop of ice cream. In all, for its very efficient space, this place is a destination, a local hangout, date night location, and fancy sports bar. Come on down for pie, and a premier experience!

I have commonly purchased Macadons, both macarons and their ice cream macarons, during street fairs…read moreand at Bobae. I was pleasantly surprised (and amused) to find their macarons with custom printing at the "REVIVE I-5" booth at the University Street Fair. I was amused enough to write a separate review for them. The quality of the artwork and print colors are fantastic and vibrant with the rainbow colors. Please see photo. If I was interested in custom macarons, I would most definitely order some from Macadons. The flavor in this case is a simple vanilla, which has its charms, though I typically buy other flavors. The shell doesn't have the characteristic slight crispy, which is understandable since these are not fresh from the store. The inside is a very creamy filling that squished out on the sides as I bite down. Everyone has their own texture preferences. I personally like it less creamy. I normally buy their ice cream macarons, but these are still very good. The individual boxes make them great for small gifts.

One of these places is Common Ground Cupcakes. More than just cupcakes, Common Ground, has other sweet treats like cookies, oatbars, and house made banana bread along with their gluten free blueberry and lemon bread. There are breakfast and lunch based sandwiches to be ordered if you are feeling even more hungry for a savory choice. But when you come in, it's still about the cupcakes! I definitely have my favorites on the menu. These include their delicious and visually stunning Red Velvet and Lemony Snicket! Common Ground exclusively carries the Caffè D'arte brand of coffee which they use in their drip, espresso drink selections as well as their special Caffè D'arte inspired cupcake. What's most critical is the comfortable-homelike atmosphere nurtured by these proud Renton small-business owners and their welcoming staff. It's what makes the regulars come back, everyday. So, if you are near 3rd Avenue and Wells Avenue South, don't just whiz by. Come on in, pull up a chair, and treat yourself to the offerings at Common Ground!
