Our home away from home, the Simple Goodness Soda Shop is a tasting room, a farm to table cafe, and our production headquarters. Just a few miles from our farm, the Soda Shop is the family friendly bar of our dreams. Inhabiting one of the few original historic buildings in Wilkeson, the earliest incorporated town in the state of Washington, the Soda Shop continues the building's 120+ year tradition of serving good people good food and drinks. Come to shop and sample our products in person, and stay for happy hour or dinner!

Here, we take soda fountain classics and craft cocktails and give them a modern day twist, with garden to glass flavors. The casual fare is seasonal, homey, and often doused in syrup. Rhubarb Vanilla Bean margaritas and Lemon Herb gin fizzes share a menu with Huckleberry Spruce Tip milkshakes, Marionberry Mint sundaes, hot, melty panini sandwiches slathered in our seasonal pesto, and snack boards laden with local cheeses and house made pickles, jams and spreads. We grow as much as we can to support our menu at the Soda Shop on the Simple Goodness cocktail farm, and source more from local growers and makers such as Fantello Farmstead Creamery, Four Elements Farm, Hideaway Brewing, Beecher's Cheese, Olympia Provisions and more. Bring your families to enjoy our open seating, big outdoor dining yard with games (dog friendly), friendly atmosphere and warm hospitality.

WHAT TO DO IN WILKESON
