Upriver Grill & Taproom
An American grill and taproom at the park's west entrance, serving Pacific Northwest craft beer and smoked salmon chowder, and popular for its summer garden terrace.
Located at 60084 State Route 20, right next to Mondo, this is the other sit-down dining option at the park's west entrance. The menu mixes American classics with creative dishes built on local ingredients. The salmon with mashed potatoes has been named good value by local media, and the smoked chowder comes up often in reviews. Other options include burgers, sandwiches, chicken wings and a vegetarian Thai red curry. Pacific Northwest draft beers and cocktails are served, with live music now and then. The summer garden terrace is especially popular. In winter it opens only Friday to Sunday, and service can be slow at peak times.
Opening hours
Winter: Fri 5:00–8:00 pm; Sat & Sun 11:00 am–8:00 pm; closed Mon–Thu. More opening days in summer.
