Mike's Tavern - CLE ELUM

Stopped here for lunch on our way to Leavenworth. Cool little bar with a lot of different sandwiches. We got the Cuban and outlaw. Both were delicious. The pretzel and beer cheese sauce was equally as delicious . They have a bunch of funny signs on the wall as well. This was a great lunch spot! Side note: the sandwiches were even better leftovers!

A group (4) stopped into Mike's for a brew while visiting Cle Elum. Free street parking can be found. Mike's is a cash only establishment. Mike's offers a couple outdoor tables in the front and a much larger outdoor seating area in the back. Mike's is following all the Covid19 safety guidelines that are currently in place: spaced tables, shower curtains between tables, max grouping of 5 people and placed hand sanitizer. The staff members were wearing the required PPE correctly. The staff was also diligently wiping areas down in order to maintain a germ free establishment. Mike's offers a nice selection of local craft beer. During our visit we all sipped on a couple beers for $5 each. The beers were served in plastic cups rather than glass pints. I'm not a fan of plastic cups. Overall, Mike's offers a safe and sanitary place to have a reasonable priced beer served by friendly staff. I look forward to stopping into Mike's the next time we're passing through Cle Elum.

Bompa's has got some major upgrades over the years and looks great. Food is awesome, free pool table play, rad history, nostalgic ambiance, great service and cozy outdoor seating right on Mainstreet. Come for the vibes/brews and always leave with a smile:

We were there at a non busy time and our services was busy talking to a friend at the counter. We were a little ignored. Beers are expensive and not super cold. Only 4 beers on tap. The food was ok but expensive. We tried the meatballs (good) and the street tacos (again good). It 's a small 'kitchen ' and I felt they did the best they could. Overall I did not feel we got what we paid for.

Hungry for a burger on a long roadtrip, we stopped in at Mike 's for a burger. Limited but decent selection of apps, bar food, sandwiches and burgers. We both had a basic burger one with a salad, the other with a bag chips. Advertised as having the coldest beer in town frosty glasses of beer on tap sure looked good! Plenty of beer ordered while we were there. Indoor and outdoor seating, (indoor old and crowded but clean). Friendly, quick service! The burgers had a weird texture and were just meh, but came off the grill hot with the usual burger toppings. This is obviously a favorite local spot.
