On the Grid : The Yard Cafe

"You expect the Yard to be bar and grill with it’s wood plank interior surrounded by overflowing green planters, but this is the place to go if you want Mexican. Or really if you want to just hangout. This is the spot for a gourmet beer selection and Mexican food that surprisingly good for the spice-phobic northwest. Enjoy bacon-wrapped jalapeños and homemade tortillas and chips that arrive hot. The dog-friendly front patio surrounded by ivy walls is the spot to enjoy some brews in the evening and make new friends at the over-sized picnic tables." - Modern Species
