You have a mean hungry after a climb. You've been fantasizing about it on the hike back to the car, probably something greasy and caloric. Burgers. Pizza. Mexican. And a hoppy IPA to wash it all down.
Esteban de la Portlandia: Eat here after you climb in the Tatoosh. Tavern and burger joint. Cheaper than Copper Creek Inn. They have draft beer and the burgers are great.
Esteban de la Portlandia: Have breakfast here on your way to climb Mt. Baker or Mt. Shuksan. Good breakfast. Delightfully crotchity, overly familiar staff.
Esteban de la Portlandia: Eat here after climbing Little Tahoma, Rainier via Liberty Ridge or Emmons Glacier, or in the Goat Rocks. More of a stand than restaurant. Burgers are amazingly good & they have decent bottled beer.
