Perched atop the Rainier Express Chairlift, the Summit House serves up breathtaking views and a new menu featuring charbroiled steaks, fresh Alaskan halibut, a variety of salad, exciting daily specials and more. The interior of the restaurant received a much needed renovation this summer. On a clear day, take in the amazing scenery of six of the Northwest’s most famous volcanic peaks. It’s like eating at the top of the world! Come in and enjoy a meal in the full service restaurant or just come in and have a glass of our select beer or wine with some traditional Swiss style fondue! In a hurry to get back out on the slopes? Energize your body before heading down the mountain with a hearty cup of soup or chili or warm espresso drink from the Summit express window. You’ll find yourself coming back for another look and another bite! Open daily from 11am-2:30pm.
Reservations are not required but are now being taken. If interested, please call (360) 663-3085 betwen the hours of 10 AM-3 PM or leave a message.
