Sno-Isle Natural Foods Co-op, Everett WA

We stayed at a hotel near the docking area – Gorgeous views from here!  There is naval base nearby.  Which is all fine and dandy unless you dislike hearing a bugle call early in the morning.

Everett felt like a sleepy town – at least on the weekends.  A lot of shops and restaurants were closed or opened later in the day.  Zosia and I rode our bikes in for breakfast Saturday morning.  We had our hearts set on a specific restaurant, but forgot to check hours the day before never expecting that it would be closed on a Saturday.

Luckily, right next door, there is a super cool  co-op called Sno-Isle.  

They were open on Saturday morning and had Samosas available in the deli. Not your traditional breakfast, I (Gwen) know, but they were tasty!  A lot of love went into the design of this co-op – from it’s wood floors and counters to all the art work on signs.

For lunch we ate at Nakorn Thai Restauraunt.  It’s a cute little hole in the wall with great food!  Good prices and great service!  And it’s not easy to get Zosia to eat Thai food, but she loved it!  Another place to go is Zippy’s Java Lounge for coffee although it’s not open very early either.  So be sure to check hours.

On Sunday, everyone (pets included) seemed to be at the Farmer’s Market.   It was amazing to me that people in the Pacific Northwest were able to bring their pets almost anywhere.  Although, I did find out later that it has to do with the fact that most are registered as service animals like the kitty in the picture.

Thanks to the great hospitality shown from the folks at Sno-Isle!

About Co-op Traveler

The Co-op Traveler is for...folks that seek out local food, folks and fun. Our work is based on the premise that if there is a food co-op in a community, there must be some cool things going on there. We are traveling the country (and ultimately the world!) to experience these places and share them with you...so you can create your local adventure in these places too... We are food co-op geeks for sure...but we can't help it. We are big into great local food (we co-own LIFE Certified Organic Farm) and great local businesses (we co-own Nature's Crossroads seed company) and the local scene (we talk to many, love to hike, bike, kayak...). So we seek these places/things out wherever we go...
