North Town Coffeehouse

I remember in the mid-1940's taking the train from Tacoma's Union Station over the mountains to Yakima with my mom to visit her dad, and siblings. I was so pleased when I moved to Yakima three years ago to find that the old station was still being used. The coffee shop is nice, staff friendly, prices about average. Let's keep this historic building going. Drop by and have a cappuccino, plain old coffee or whatever. When you do, let your mind wander and imagine it bustling with military and USO folks. Some even say the place is haunted. And don't forget during warm weather to meet up here with Ellen Allmendinger for a historical tour of downtown Yakima. Fun!

I don't drink coffee but this coffee shop is must visit. Used to be a train station back then ( I believe in 1889) and now a cool original design of old American interior. I had homemade pistachio gelato and coconut. It was sooooo good. PS. You can see the train pass the building of you spend enough time there PSS. They ask you to flush twice of the toilet but you have to check it out why ;)
