Granny's Cafe

While we're here at Olympic National Park we're trying some of the local restaurants. We almost exclusively eat lunch out, and enjoy dinner in our MoHo with our dog, Pearl.

On the way between Port Angeles & Lake Crescent is a small combination 6 room motel and cafe. There are perhaps 6 tables inside, and another 8 tables on the patio. There is a small menu with homemade soups, so-so salads, sandwiches, and great hamburgers. And the best side order, sweet potato fries. Now we're not big fans of sweet potatoes, especially at Thanksgiving with those yucky miniature marshmallows.

The hamburgers are a full 1/3 pound, with all of the fixings. There's also homemade chili made from scratch with 2 kinds of beans, which compliments the entrees. There's also a good french dip, and excellent fish & chips.

And they have soft serve ice cream to complete the feast. Usually we split a hamburger with the sweet potatoes fries, then finish with an ice cream cone.

So when you see a small cafe with a lot of cars parked in front, don't hesitate to stop. You might be pleasantly surprised.
