16 Best American Restaurants in Centralia

“I love that each person that waits on us is always so personalized with everyone. Not just certain people. We come in and my grandma gets her decalf. We laugh. We get served our brunch and just enjoy life. I recommend this place for sure“

“The food was awesome, everything was cooked correctly. I got the steak with there bacon butter. Saw some of the burgers go by to another table and those things large.

The only draw back to the restaurant is that it is an older stile building. If you are 6 feet tall your head will hit the ceiling lights or some of the decorations.“

“The food was delicious and the pie was the best!!! They definitely earned their title of the best in Lewis county. Loved the cider mimosa. Highly recommend!“

“Thank you Country Cousin for a wonderful experience yesterday. My date has diabetes and was holding on to the hostess podium to keep from falling when we were waiting for a table. I took her out to the door lobby so she could sit down for a while. The kindest server came out with a glass of orange juice and said: "Diabetes?" "Yeah, that's it" I said with my jaw on the floor as she gave it to my friend. She drank some of juice, recovered, and another kind young lady came out and told us she got us a table that was close. We sat down, enjoyed our awesomely yummy meal that was served by yet another kind gentleman and had the best time. Thank you Country Cousin, your cooks, servers, hosts/hostesses for just a... faith-in-humanity-restoring experience. Your service and kindness made a big difference to these two customers, and I'm sure you do for everyone else as well.“

“Excellent food..great service..not overpriced..My favorite Place to eat .“

“awesome venue! great pizza!“

“I absolutely adore McMenamins Olympic Club. I have so many memories here—family stays, cozy getaways, and those perfect small-town adventures that just stick with you.

What McMenamins—and especially the McMenamin brothers—have done for the Pacific Northwest is something special. I always tell people they’re basically the Disneyland of the Northwest. The way they’ve invested in restoring and preserving historic properties that might’ve otherwise been lost is incredible. They’ve built a brand that feels cohesive yet unique—no matter which location you’re in, there’s a familiar warmth in the look, the smell, the atmosphere… and yet each place still has its own story.

And let’s talk about the Passport—it’s genius. I love it. I’ve almost completed it twice, and it adds such a fun layer to the whole experience.

This location, though, is a cut above the rest—even though there truly isn’t a bad one in the bunch.

My one honest critique? The service. It tends to be a bit lacking and could definitely use some attention. It’s the one piece that doesn’t quite match the magic of everything else.

That said, I’ll keep coming back. Places like this are rare, and what they’ve built across the Northwest deserves real appreciation.“

“I had my birthday breakfast there, first time going. We had a large group so we called two weeks ahead for reservations. We had their beautiful private room that was all set up for us, with lots of coffee and water. Our food came out all together, hot, so flavorful and comforting. Everyone commented on how yummy it all was. Their staff were the best in the business, they should give a class to others on what great service is. Highly recommend, a gem in Centralia. Also great shops all around to enjoy after an amazing meal. A must go and often!“

“The chef does an excellent job. Food not only tastes good but is plated beautiful . Very glad I found this lovely place .“

“Love the sweet potato fries! The staff is always very nice as well🙂the bacon burger is my go-to💕“

“Thank you Bubs!! Last night my wife and I had your Friday Night Special “Surf & Turf” Bacon wrapped Steak and shrimp on the barbecue. It was so delicious and definitely the best meal I’ve had in a long time. The chocolate cake dessert was the perfect topper. Thank you, Thank you!! We love all their food but this meal was Amazing!!“

“It is a pool hall so if you are looking for real quiet never mind. It's not real noisy but can get a bit raucous. They have a excellent seasonal menu besides their usual one. They have quite a selection of their own beers. My husband and I go quite often when we feel like not cooking. It's also fun to watch a movie and eat & drink sometimes.“

“Best big fatty crazy good burger I've had. I had the wakin bacon burger which has fried eggs and bacon on it it was to die for and so was the shake fries and cheesecake I got with it.. highly recommend ten stars.. oh and I got it door dashed at 1 something am because they're open till 2am“

“Great food, relaxing environment. Just a bit cold inside on a nasty day for those looking for a place to get out of the weather and warm up“
