“ I only review if it’s worth it. This place is definitely worth a stop if you are in the area. After a long day of hitting the trails in the HOH Rainforest the Bigfoot Burger hits the spot. Super delicious jumbo burger filled with ham, turkey, and bacon. It’s a little more pricier than your average burger but it is worth every penny. We also grabbed a PB&J for the road just a simple basic PB&J. They have a nice little souvenir shop also implemented into the cafe. ”
“ This is a restaurant plus local shop close to the Hoh rainforest. It has a nice cheerful vibe and the staff is friendly and efficient. We had the veggie burgers, fries and onion rings here and they were good ”
“ A couple of burgers and fries hit the spot after a long day of hiking at Hoh. They do smash burgers so I recommend getting a double - so good! The staff were so nice, and service was fast despite lots of customers. Grabbed a magnet as a souvenir on the way out. ”
“ A great stop before you enter the Hoh Rainforest. The staff are very friendly, a wide range of coffees, a pretty decent selection of food that I thought tasted amazing. Lots of good souvenirs and shirts inside. It has free parking. Kid-friendly, I highly recommend it for anyone visiting the Hoh rainforest. Plenty of seating outside. ”
“ We camped at Hard Rain Cafe for 3 nights, as our base to traveling the area. We managed to get the site on the back, no.13, which was absolutely perfect. It's on the back of the property so far from the road (and anyway the entire place is very quiet at night). There are a lot of visitors to the cafe during the day, but the back sites are not really affected by it. There's a beautiful meadow just next to the site and the atmosphere is laid back and peaceful. The staff has been helpful and kind and we had awesome starlink reception. Bathrooms were clean and well kept. We had lunch at the cafe- nothing fancy but the food was fresh and good. ”
“ This is a review of their RV camping lot. Excellent hosts! Easy check in. Made a reservation and we were able to pick any available spot upon arrival. Full hookups available minus septic BUT their two fully private bathrooms with shower stalls more than make up for it. Exceptionally clean!!!! New electric hookups, new picnic tables and a fire ring! Minutes to the National Park! We were here for three days and loved it. There is a hike across the street if the national park wasn’t enough lol. We did not eat at the restaurant but the gift shop was awesome. Only negative was that they don’t take garbage but there is a state park a few mile north that has a dump station and dumpster. Verizon had 2 bars and was spotty. 40 bucks a night with about 15 spots available. Really loved staying at this camp! ”
“ Got convinced with their ads “last stop before going Hoh Rainforest” passed by after hiking. No frills cafe and dining in rainforest? Charming! Their mercantile are reasonably priced. I got my Forks Washington fridge magnet here and some native American mug. The best part was the food. I never had this much tasty Salmon burger. It was seasoned perfectly. Juicy and succulent. I am pretty sure it was homemade patty. I had other Salmon burgers but it tasted rubbery and fishy. The hours varies according to season but they rarely open early ”
“ Great little spot to stop for a bite on your way in or out of the Hoh Rainforest. Super friendly employees. The food is a little pricey but it makes sense being it's the only option for fresh food. I got the double cheeseburger and it was great! No seating inside but there are picnic tables outside. ”
