There are a lot of amazing restaurants all over Washington State. One of my favorite things to do when we visit a new town or city is go eat at the local "spot" everyone talks about. There is nothing like experiencing the food at a restaurant that has been made the same way for multiple generations. Here is a small list of 5 old restaurants you have to visit if your near them in Washington State.

Horseshoe Cafe, Bellingham (113 E Holly St, Bellingham) - est. 1886

Like it says on their website, "The original Horseshoe opened its doors in downtown Bellingham on Holly Street to satisfy the large appetites of these tough, ornery folks in the summer of 1886." It is easily one of the oldest in Washington State, and probably has one of the most interesting histories. They are open 24 hours a day and offer free WiFi if your interested.
