Good restaurant?
by diamond_skies
Going to visit Dear Old Dad in the Spring and he has been complaining about the lack of good restaurants in the Vancouver area. He said that everything is either a chain or fairly posh (Hudsons, Bacchus, etc). He likes Hudsons but has been trying to find something in the mid-price range that isn't a chain or fast food. I know PDX has a plethora of good places but Dad also hates crossing the river and driving in Downtown.
Is there anything that is within, say 20 miles of Vancouver that has good, home cooked food, is still in Washington State and is reasonably priced and not a Red Robin or Applebys? Dad most likely will know every restaurant in the area but I am hoping someone knows a hidden place that he hasn't found yet! :o)
Many thanks,
Jane

THanks Dave - I am sure he has been to the restaurant there but I will mention it to him. The only time he ventures south of the river is to go to Jantzen Beach. Personally, I like the McMenamins on the waterfront but Dad says the music is too loud in the microbreweries. He is old and grumpy and it is getting more difficult to please him!

LOL, There was a place on the south side of the River I went to with a client years ago. If I remember it I will forward it along

We like Gustav's - it's on the east side, opened about 3 years ago, hearty German fare (I think the owner is the daughter of the family who operates Rheinlander in Portland). I wrote a review in my Vancouver page (truesally). We also have the Stardust diner on our side of town, which is all about home-cooking, but it can be hit & miss. It is definitely on the less expensive side, plus there's a coupon in the Entertainment book :)
He may have already been there, but Dulin's (formerly a cafe on Main St.) moved into the old Holland restaurant building in Uptown. When it was down the way, it was inexpensive but good.
Best of luck. I know my parents can be tough to please when we go out...But we try all kinds of stuff with our neighbor friends, so if I find something new & fabulous I'll let you know!

Thank you Sally. I can't remember if Dad has mentioned Gustav's or not - but the Rheinlander connection sounds familiar. I think he has had negative experiences with the Stardust. He does like that kind of 'diner' type restaurant.
He used to go to Dulin's a lot and I didn't know they had moved. He told me they had closed down. I normally get a full restaurant update every month or so! It is a sort of hobby with him - I keep telling him he should become a critic for the local paper!

Hello, I enjoyed Salty's on the Columbia; about 2 miles east of I-5 on
Marine Drive. It's easy driving from the interstate and the food, service
and views of the Columbia River are great. Here's their phone # 503-288-4444
Try it, you alone or both should give this restaurant some serious thought.
Or, go to Google and do a search for restaurants in Vancouver, Wa.

We've been to Salty's years ago but I don't think Dad has been recently so I will suggest that - thanks!
Travel Tips for Vancouver
Officer's Row at the Vancouver...
by oneonta_ni
Officer's Row at the Vancouver Barracks is very interesting if you like Victorian architecture. These were homes built for the officers base in Vancouver during the last part of the 19th century. Some of them are offices now and you can only walk around the outside but one is a restaurant and another has a function room and gift shop. The barracks are located near the Columbia River and it is a nice place to go for a picnic in the summer. Also, in July, this is a great place to watch the Fourth of July fireworks display - the largest West of the Mississippi.
Old Apple Tree Park
by glabah
In the days when Fort Vancouver was a British frontier post, there was a desire for food of more types than what was available locally. Therefore, orchards and gardens were established.
The oldest living thing dating from those times is this ancient apple tree, which is thought to date from 1826.
Naturally, the name of the park is now Old Apple Tree Park.
Unfortunately, for many years, this park was not easy to get to, as over time the old apple tree was completely surrounded by railroad lines and highway expansion.
Today, it is possible to access the park using the Vancouver Land Bridge trail that goes between the Waterfront Trail and Fort Vancouver. In photo 5 you can see the entry from Old Apple Tree Park to the Land Bridge proper, which includes a gateway designed in a fashion that is to give tribute to the native peoples of the area.
Vancouver

Vancouver is right across the Columbia River from Portland, Oregon. There is a nice walk along the river in Downtown Portland, but I suggest you get in the car and drive to Mt St Helens for some great scenary.
