Best place to eat in the Cle Elum area. I visited for 2 weeks and was shocked to see the prices at some of these restaurants. Then, when you look at the bill, they always add some ridiculous charges just to up that check. This and the burrito place across the street from it was the only restaurant to charge exactly the price it said on the menu. On top of that, they were very good eats. A delicious basil soup and a well made sandwhich. I think it's the only thing that's worth the buck in this area read more

I got the ridge- the honey mustard complimented the salty ham really well! So tasty! And it was great fresh cheese. Also it was only $9 bucks! Shweeeet We also had an order for a locomotive- he wished there were a little more veggies, the tomato and banana peppers with the roast beef was a really nice surprise. He said he didn't even miss the crunch of the lettuce with the pepper. (What a win!) Overall it was fantastic, loved the cutie little vibe of the place, there's a bathroom that nicely cleaned. Def will be a place we stop thru again. read more

We stopped for a quick lunch on the way home from the mountains. For only a few more minutes and dollars than a drive-thru we got delicious, fresh, healthy food that was super satisfying. I had a Santa Fe wrap bursting with lettuce, black beans, cheddar, tomatoes and tortilla strips tossed in a zesty chipotle vinaigrette then lightly grilled in the panini press. My dude had a Three Cheese Melt on sourdough and an unsweetened iced tea that hit the spot. The young people working were friendly, fast and efficient! We drive through often and will stop again... The things on the breakfast menu and in the bakery case had my mouth watering... read more

Service was slow, they ran out of pickles for my Cuban, the blta was pretty mediocre for a $13 sandwich. There are plenty of other spots in Cle Elum to eat, you can skip Stella's... read more

Perfect every single time I come here. The sandwiches are perfectly cooked and well worth over an hour drive just to visit. We also got the raspberry scone warmed up and it was super yummy. 100% recommend! read more

If you're looking for a healthy and delicious meal, head on over to Stella's! We were headed back to Seattle after a weekend at Suncadia resort and decided to stop by for a quick lunch. My mom was DELIGHTED to have finally found a spot that had so many vegan options. And yes, they are strictly following the mandate on requiring masks in order to enter their business. We got 2 of their smoothies with vegan protein powder, a grilled cheese sandwich and a vegan Santa Fe wrap. The food was light, fresh, and SO yummy! They seem to be a pretty popular joint, explaining why the wait time was so long. The 2 lovely ladies working there are super sweet and made it an overall great experience. We frequently visit Suncadia, and we will definitely be back at Stella's as well. read more

Stella's is the best. The owner Jaime is super cool and dedicated to her local customers. The food is stellar and the service is great and it's a great vibe! read more

If you look up "Quaint Small-Town Cafe" in your favorite dictionary, there is a chance that you might find a picture of Stella's. This is a great, local establishment with friendly staff serving excellent coffee and good food. We stopped by after doing some cross-country skiing and we enjoyed a toasted veggie sandwich and BLTA, as well as some hot chai drinks. Everything was delicious, and of course we finished off lunch with an amazing rice crispy treat. The staff was great and I felt very comfortable with their COVID protocols. The prices also felt reasonable for the quantity and quality of the food that was provided. Sometimes in small towns you can find hidden gems, and Stella's is certainly one of them. It will become our go-to when we are in Cle Elum. read more

Great local restaurant with delicious made to order food! Went for a hike at a nearby trail and was hungry afterwards. Thankful to find a place nearby that is open during our "Stay Home Stay Healthy" situation. They have breakfast and lunch menus (breakfast served until 11 am). Roslyn Rider Turkey Club -- roasted turkey, bacon, white cheddar cheese, and garlic aioli toasted on Ciabatta. Comes with a bag of chips (your choice). This was so good! The bacon were 2 thick slices. All ingredients tasted great together. The Ciabatta had a nice crunch outside, yet soft and warm as you bite into it. I recommend this sandwich! Downed the sandwich with a Tropical smoothie -- Pineapple, Strawberry, Banana, Apple Juice -- this was delicious and refreshing. Teenaway Turkey BLTA -- roasted turkey, bacon, lettuce, tomato, avocado, mayo, and Havarti cheese toasted on sourdough bread. I didn't get to taste this, but my daughter said it was good. This is a bigger sized sandwich than the ciabatta. Comes with a bag of chips. Spinach Mango smoothie -- Spinach, Mango, Apple Juice -- this was good, but not as good as the Tropical smoothie. The taste of spinach overpowered the mango. Not a bad smoothie. But after tasting the Tropical, I was happy with my choice. They have outdoor seating and you're welcome to use them even during our current situation. It was nice to sit outside with our lunch. During our Stay Home Stay Healthy order, call to check their hours before showing up. If you're in the area, check them out! During COVID-19 situation, probably best to call first to check their hours before showing up. Sorry no pics. read more

The service was incredible and the food was awesome! We city have the chicken and artichoke panini and the soup and it was delicious! Plus the person who served us, brought water for our dog as well as dog treats! I would definitely go back! read more

Enjoyed a great Santa Fe Wrap add chicken yesterday. Very tasty and fresh. The people here are super friendly and the place is adorable.

Loved the pesto and BLTA sandwiches. They slice fresh apples or chips with it. So yummy. Great option to have while traveling across the state. Definitely coming back. The lavender lemonade tasted a bit like soap in my lemonade. Staff is super friendly and quick. read more

My favorite sandwich shop...always a stop when traveling through the area. Food is excellent and service with a smile. Recommend for sure!

We stopped to get breakfast and we were not expecting how great it was. We ordered two southwest wraps (added bacon) and it was perfectly done. We loved the taste and the size was great for us. Ps: we finished eating a few minutes ago and we are still talking about how delicious it was haha. read more

Stella's - Southwest wrap (added bacon) - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Cle Elum, Washington

We were at our in-laws for thanksgiving in Cle Elum & wanted to grab lunch before we hit the road to Issaquah home the next day. Our son & wife recommended this place as did my mom, daughter & boyfriend who had a delicious breakfast here. So glad we stopped by! We had our little dog so the 4 of us sat outside on their cute spacious deck. We ordered their delicious coffee to start with & then we got 2 of the pesto chicken sandwiches & the "locomotive" sandwich- they all came with chips or apples. The chicken pesto was so good- nice big chunks of chicken & great pesto flavor. The "locomotive" was also delicious with generous portions of turkey, roast beef & salami & peppers that gave it a nice kick- so good! The service was friendly & quick (even though we got there right at the lunch rush) loved the atmosphere of the cute deck & the food was amazing! We'll be back for breakfast next time! read more

This place was off the hook! Real people. Friendly and helpful. Real food. Delicious, fresh, scratch made. The best eats in Cle Elum, bar none. I will go out of my way to stop in here again and again. Don't miss it. Even if you're just flying by on the freeway, take the couple extra minutes to swing in here. You will leave happier than you arrived. I am certain of it. Sorry I failed to photo. I'll get some next time I'm in. read more

A hidden gem of a restaurant right when you drive into axle Elm. Locally owned and operated with great food fresh sandwiches and wraps. Even vegan options and power smoothies. Locally grown herbs and fresh greens. Bakery items are from a local bakery as well. The staff is friendly. The wait time is a bit long so sit down and enjoy the park right next door or their outdoor seating area. Fresh coffee which is self served all day. Breakfast wraps until 11am and all other wraps and sandwiches served all day. Look for the small sign by the street and turn in to enjoy some food. read more

Right on the main drag though cle elum. Small place and 19 total occupancy. Seems like the locals like it. Avo BLT was great. Bread perfectly toasted. Quesidilla for the kid and thr chili was good too. Cowboy feel to the place with a lot of themed sayings posted about. Order up front and they bring the food out. read more

Had the Roslyn Rider. Very tasty and would order again. Also ordered peanut butter and chocolate chip cookies - both good but not great. Nice decor, the restaurant and bathroom were clean. I'd go back to try something different. The food was solid. read more

Wow! I rarely give out 5 stars but I wish I could give these folks 6. My expectations for food when staying in small towns are modest, but Stella's was a rare find. A simple, yet creative menu with flexibility, and something for everyone. We had take-out breakfast there two days in a row. The 2nd day we bought a 3rd dish so we could split it at home the next day! And the prices are extremely reasonable. The Southwest Wrap is to die for. Friendly, accommodating staff who seem to be taking the pandemic seriously (on-premise dining is limited to outdoor seating, a pleasant way to go in the nice weather). The next time we find ourselves in the area it'll be Stella's for sure. read more

I travel across the state for work and this place is by far my favorite sandwich spot. Great vibes, great food, and great coffee. *chefs kiss* read more

Stopped by here for a quick breakfast stop and really glad I followed Yelp's recommendation. Stella is a cute and cozy cafe place with great breakfast and lunch option. The breakfast burrito/wrap was amazing, fresh ingredients, tasty and good portion. The store was very clean and the menu provides good variety of options! Service was excellent. I'd definitely come back here again! read more

Our fave stop between home on the west side to visit the east side! Everything is fresh and made to order! I am on a very strict eating plan and explained what I can eat and she was more than happy to alter a menu salad to meet my needs. Took off items I couldn't have and added items I could w no extra charge! Made me a special salad dressing and went above and beyond to meet all of our needs! Our secret little stop was no longer a secret....busy and dealing with a lunch crowd quickly and efficiently! Thank you again! We will be back and more often! Our son is headed to college on the east side - so a great excuse to stop in more often! read more

Great food, good service. It's walking distance from the hotel and was very clean. I look forward to going back soon. read more

I just had the BEST butternut squash soup at Stella's. Would 100% recommend. Very cute and cozy spot.

What a gem to find. Pulled into the town for gas and asked a local where to go and he suggested Stella's (thank you sir for the GREAT recommendation!). It's a tiny little place with only a few tables inside and outdoor seats. My husband and I each had soup and sandwiches. He had a blta and French onion soup and I had chicken pesto and tomato soup. Perfect for a rainy day. Everything is made with just an extra special something. Nothing is basic. Even the little breads for the soups were like a perfect flat flavored crouton with baked cheese. They also offer coffees and multiple fresh bakery items including GF and DF options. Staff are super friendly. We unfortunately will probably never be beck this way but if we did we would definitely be back. read more
