Scott's Dairy Freeze

Always slammed but always consistent and delicious. Best garden burgers around. Don't know what they do to them but they're very different and very delicious. This place was my favorite fries even better than McDonald's and the best shakes and the best view!

Got there 7:43.... we just wanted an ice cream cone. Not burgers, not fries, not even going to soil your milkshake machine. Closed early...flippant staff could not care less. Why not just post hours till 7:45? This long time resident will never come here again. Glad there are other options now in Snoqualmie Valley.

Scott's is a classic of North Bend, with its tiny, brightly colored storefront and its windowside ordering from a bygone age. Within, the vintage menu board and old-school Coke placards send the visitor on a trip back in time. The burgers here are heaping and fully loaded, and this is the only place I've seen that serves deep fried mushrooms. But the key here are the shakes - as evidenced by the name - serving up milkshakes, avalanches, glaciers, and slushies, most with seasonal flavors - don't skip on trying one during your visit.

It should be noted that this review has been a long-time coming. Writing about an establishment so endearing, so well-loved, and so appreciated as Scotts Dairy Freeze (sometimes affectionately referred to Scott's Dairy Slaps, no explanation needed), is not an easy task. There is simply no way to be a fair judge of a place that simply has it all: small town charm (Dale Cooper missed this one), color-coordinated outdoor seating, and actual functioning milkshake machines. This is a five star establishment, food and all. You could stop reading right here. But I'll keep going because why not, I'm putting off some incredibly important things right now. A long time ago, I failed to procure a summer internship while all my other friends had multiple offers (and most things worked out in the end, so never mind the rat race) so I ended up working for a nearby city cutting trees. They call it street maintenance but its really gardening on a city wide scale (and that is no slight). I didn't learn too much save for the wise words of one coworker who noted that, in terms of quantifying what exactly makes a great burger (Greg), "the bun makes the burger." And GD was he right, for here at Scott's, they've got quite literally the best burger in Washington (and yes I have been to Red Mill). I've put my money where my mouth is too many times here to be wrong about that. The bun is literally toasted on both sides, and benefits not only from a healthy smattering of mayo and relish, but also from the presumably lightly-cleaned, decades old griddle. It's not bursting with veggies, but also not too "heavy." It's just right. They don't mess around here, and they better not change the recipe because I still can't recreate it (will pay for the recipe, Scott). Sure, you've got to wait for this burger, but it's probably a well timed business tactic to make everything taste that much better via passage of time. Or they're just relaxed teenage workers. Why not both? So while the burgers are best-in-state (maybe country, IDK, nobody has enough time to test a statement like that), you would also do well to order a side of mushrooms and ranch, as well as a local-favorite glacier. Or a banana shake, and some Scott's Tots. Maybe all at once too; I've seen bigger orders and you better believe being on the wrong side of that order can increase your wait time by exponents. But nobody cares. You can just mill around the town. Go visit Twede's; go pick some blueberries down the road. They put them in their blueberry shakes, whole, and undisturbed (not verified). I love this place so much I waded through Google's maddeningly archaic search function to find every photo I have of this place just to show you how wonderful it really is. If this place ever closes, it will be a black day in history. Also pictured is my friend, Schroeder, who talks so much.
