🍂 Fall Menu Planning is Officially Underway! 🍂

​It might still feel like summer outside, but in the kitchen, we are already dreaming of cozy sweaters, crisp nights, and hearty, comforting flavors.

​We’re officially starting to brainstorm and prep for our upcoming Fall Menu, and we want to build it with you in mind. After all, the best dishes are the ones shared with great community!

​We want to know:

​What are you craving? Is there a specific seasonal flavor, cozy dish, or local ingredient you’re dying to see on the menu this year?

​What should make a comeback? If you have a past favorite dish, dessert, or drink that you’re still thinking about, let us know so we can bring it back!

​👇 Drop your wishlists, cravings, and favorite throwback dishes in the comments below! Let’s make this our most delicious season yet.
Which Bring it Back item would you like to see?!

🚨 Supporting Our Firefighters & Quick Kitchen Update! 🚨

​We have a massive honor tonight—a crew of 60 wildland firefighters just called in a huge order, and we are stepping up to get them fed and fueled!

​To make sure we take care of these hardworking men and women as quickly as possible, our kitchen will be temporarily closed for food orders for about 30 minutes (from 7.20 to 8).

​But don't run off! We’re keeping the vibes going and the drinks flowing:

🍹 The Bar is OPEN: All of our craft drinks and beverages are fully available.

🍻 Happy Hour Drink Specials: We’re running happy hour pricing on drinks while you wait!

🧀 Chips & Queso: Grab some complimentary and queso to snack on while we prep the kitchen to take your dinner orders.

​Thank you so much for your patience, understanding, and for helping us support the crews keeping our communities safe. Pull up a stool, grab a drink, and we’ll have the full menu ready for you in a flash!

Father's day?! How's about Father's weekend?! Let's celebrate our favorite guys with the ultimate surf and turf! All weekend long! 🥩🦀🦪

​Why choose between land and sea when you can have the absolute best of both? This weekend, we’re serving up a massive 16 oz T-Bone Steak, grilled to absolute perfection and paired with char-grilled asparagus and a fully loaded baked potato.

​But we didn't stop there. You get to choose your own seafood adventure to crown the plate:

​✨ Option 1: Half a sweet, chilled Dungeness Crab 🦀

✨ Option 2: Three colossal, flame-grilled prawns 🦐

✨ Option 3: Six fresh, briny oysters on the half shell 🦪

$60 plus options for multiple seafood selections!

​What’s in your glass? 🍻🥃

An epic meal requires an epic pairing. Whether you want to wash it down with one of our 12 ice-cold beers on draft, or elevate your evening with a pour from the best whiskey selection in Thurston County, our bar team has you completely covered.

​These plates are huge, the drinks are cold, and tables will fill up fast.
