Elbe Junction

I love stopping it and getting a mocha when I ride my motorcycle in this area. You have benches covered on the veranda of the building to sit and drink your coffee. The staff is very friendly! You have a wide selection of local beers, t-shirts, books and other neat things.

Probably the best selection of special and local goods in the area. A little pricy, but you won't find this stuff anywhere in 20 miles. Also has a large coffee shop and served Olympic cream ice cream.

Great little tourist spot with delicious ice cream, coffee, and a variety of other drinks plus handmade Pies. I also bought an adorable Washington T-shirt that is super comfy. I recommend stopping by if you are in the area. I should warn you, they don't have any bathrooms in the shop. But there is a rest stop just down the road.

Pretty good place to grab some ice cream during summer. Or to grab some beer and candy if you'll be hanging at the mountain for a while.

Adorable coffee shop with to-die-for Huckleberry ice cream and drip coffee. Coming from the Seattle, this stop was a lovely surprise. Will be back every time we visit Mount Rainer.
