Sorry! We don't have any recommendations for Washington Wine Country right now.
National fast-food chains, local eateries, and some fine-dining restaurants can be found scattered throughout the region, or sometimes right alongside one another. As a huge agricultural area, the Yakima Valley supplies many of its local restaurants with fresh fruits and vegetables in season. Yakima Valley wines are a staple at virtually all the fine-dining establishments. Pacific Northwest seafood (particularly salmon) is another staple of the region. South-central Washington also has a fair share of Mexican food, from taco wagons to fine Mexican restaurants.
Whether for a morning macchiato, a bagel breakfast sandwich, a lunchtime panini, or a late-afternoon slice of cake, this roomy coffeehouse with hardwood floors, comfy armchairs, and café tables works nicely for a quick pick-me-up or a more leisurely meal. Most evenings, the space becomes a casual dinner spot with beer and wine available, and on weekends there's often live rock, jazz, and country music.
This cute Latina- and LGBTQ-owned café in downtown Sunnyside has an inviting, hip vibe with artfully arranged plants and a beautiful floral mural. Stop in for an espresso pick-me-up between wineries or a craft cocktail.
This friendly daytime café is inside a quirky little cabin with a sunny deck beside Cle Elum's Flag Pole Park. Popular for a bite or a latte before or after hiking the nearby Coal Mines Trail or just strolling around downtown, Stella's specializes in overstuffed sandwiches—such as the Gobbler, with roast turkey, cranberry sauce, and Swiss—and well-prepared breakfasts featuring everything from French toast to steal-cut oatmeal to build-your-own egg scrambles.
