4 Best Restaurants in North Central Washington, Washington

Tucked beside the popular Glover Street Market, this bakery is justly renowned for both savory and sweet treats, including—most famously—cinnamon "twisps" (the bakery's own decadent version of cinnamon rolls). Note that they often sell out by late morning, so arrive early if you want to get one. There are also smoothies, milk shakes, and build-your-own sandwiches.

Serious coffee aficionados and casual sippers all stop by this venerable roaster and café a mile southeast of Twisp. Blue Star produces a number of fine roasts and blends, which you can sample in a spacious new building that opened in 2021. The space gives customers a view of the coffee roasting action through wide windows. Decadent pastries and baked goods complement the coffee, and you can shop for coffee-making equipment to up your coffee game at home.

The flagship location of this outstanding local roaster is in the trendy Wine Cellar building, and it doubles as a cute mercantile stocked with artisan chocolates, local maple syrup, and other goodies. There's no seating, but it's a perfect spot to pick up an expertly crafted espresso drink for your stroll around town. There's a second location by Front Street Park.

Downtown Wenatchee's go-to for cappuccinos, lattes, and other finely crafted espresso drinks is a large, inviting space with brick walls and plenty of seating. The kitchen also serves tasty light breakfast fare—bagel sandwiches, parfaits, wraps, and breakfast burritos—and wrap sandwiches and salads at lunch time.
