Leavenworth dining

[mangiabene]

I'm sure this has come up before, but a search of the site isn't turning up more. Headed to Leavenworth this weekend and looking for tips on good places to dine. No, not a big fan of German food, but when in Rome...

Any recommendations?

Thanks!

I am so sorry I have been there a few times for conferences and we had one horrible local meal after another ..we keep trying and we kept failing ..I hope someone does find you a good meal I would be interested to know what we missed there ...

the German food was in my opinion pretty overpriced and horrible ...the service was nice everywhere but it is touristy so it should be friendly!

Can't help you on the dining tip but The Cheesemonger is lovely! They'll let you try anything............ it's a cheese shop BTW.

Yeah, we've tried quite a few of the places in town, and nothing really sticks out. The place we used to go that was at least decent is long gone. So we usually just stick to the sausages and a pink-frosted gingerbread cookie!

Last time we were there (about a year ago), there was a little outdoor cafe that looked interesting, but we didn't try it. It was on the road in town with all the street parking--I think a block south of the main street. Can't remember much about it though, sorry.

Usually, we're just looking to enjoy a little sun on a rainy day in Seattle, so we escape over there, and either pop up to the rooftop dining at Gustav's, or grab a sausage at that walk up stand near the fudge factory, and walk down to the park.

Edited to add: It is not really a fudge factory, I guess, just the place that sells fudge near the public restrooms.

Thanks all. I too have had bad luck in past trips to Leavenworth. I have been to the cheesemonger's shop and that's a good idea. Supposedly there's also a crepe place now that's a decent alternative. But, chocolate and sausages are a good idea.

take a bunch of picnic stuff with you and go enjoy a view?
