Nothing beats their pizza when you don't feel like cooking and you don't feel like going out and "normal" takeout isn't sounding quite right either. I'm in town every 3-4 months or more and I'll have at least one of their pizzas every time I'm here. The pizzas always taste great, the staff is friendly and the service is pretty quick!


This review would really be for folks new to Ellensburg. If you know the town and like beer...nothing else to say really - This is THE Brewery! Good beer and super friendly service. They often host events such as a painting class (with beer!) and they are pet-friendly as well. My go-to is a nice crisp hazy IPA - they don't always have one on tap, but they always have something I like. If I forget my growler, they have a crowler as well.


Nothing like a delicious latte on a long drive. About 1/2 way through my 4 hour drive...this is the perfect stop. The coffee is good and they get it as hot as you ask for! The staff is friendly and there is always a pasty or two that you just can't refuse! I also like the small town location. I'm usually just stopping long enough to grab and go, but they do have a great little outdoor deck if you are in less of a rush.


They never let me down! I travel to E-Burg several times a year to help Mom. There is always something to fix it seems. This particular store does an amazing job serving this small community. If they don't have the exact thing...they always have something I can make work. If I don't quite have it planned out, there always seems to be someone willing to brainstorm with me. I truly count on this place when I am in town.


I think this is my dad's favorite spot in "the valley". I do have to admit - their burgers and reuben are pretty hard to beat. I' don't eat fish tacos, but am told theirs are some of the best. I'm also told their deep fried halibut is not only one of the best tasting in town, but also one of the most generous servings of halibut you'll get. The service is always the best!!



When you have a favorite brewery (with one of my top two favorite Hazys!) in your own "back yard"...well, what can I say. I love the food, vibe, staff, and beer from the Matsu Brewery. Even though they are within walking distance of the house...I do keep an "emergency growler" in the truck at all times (an empty one that is!).



While I don't get my nails done, my partner does. She has been going here for quite some time now. It's always a surprise as to what color her nails will be when she gets home. Izella is amazing and has become a great family friend as well. Yes, we're biased, but she does amazing work! Check her out for yourself...I know you'll agree (and thank us later!!).


I’m almost embarrassed to admit I haven’t reviewed this place yet! If you know Palmer and you know bars…you’ll agree! If you don’t know Palmer…do yourself a favor and stop in to the oldest bar in Palmer! You’ll thank me later 😉. Beer, poutine (with fries - NOT Tot’s!), and a Jameson pickle-back! Can’t go wrong! If you have read any of my reviews, you’ll know that service is as important (probably more-so) as the food. I didn’t get the bartender’s name, but she was awesome!!



I admit this isn't a "go-to" for me, but it is for my daughter and her husband. When I'm in town visiting...this is their most requested stop 😏. The staff is great and always helps me as I struggle through what to order (and how to pronounce it). Super burritos and Enchilada plates are always in demand. They even go so far as to do a custom "protein bowl" for me! Thanks Gang!!


Sometimes you just need a comfortable and friendly place to unwind a bit after "one of those days". The Bear Paw Bar & Grill is one of those places. Great food and beverages. Today - it was just a glass (no - not a FULL glass 😎) and a fwe minutes to myself. It's pretty amazing how the bartenders know when to just leave you be. Great Staff!!
