Cascade Shores General Store

This place has a small café and deck to eat on. Weekend breakfast is very good. Burgers to go for the lake at lunch are also spot on. They just reopened the café part but if your in this neck of the woods it’s quite good!

I live near this establishment and I frequent it. New owners as of late last year. It’s a small, older building with lots of woodsy charm (well, we ARE in the woods… Cascade Shores is like a poor man’s Tahoe), including wooden beam floors, a warm wood burning stove and a deck with picnic tables. It’s located at the 4-​way stop intersection of Banner Quaker Hill Rd. and Pasquale Rd., right next door to the fire station, not where it’s marked on the map currently. Just a few minutes from Scotts Flat Reservoir, a popular boating, fishing and swimming lake.
The store is much like any mini mart with your usual basic foodstuffs, beer/​alcoholic beverages, soft drinks, snacks, frozen foods, milk, eggs, butter, bread, canned foods, etc. as well as some non-​food stuff. No hot deli items or soda fountain. Plenty of stock and the store itself is reasonably neat and clean. The store is open every day of the week and closes every evening around 8pm.
However, it does have a café that just reopened in the last month or so. The hours for the café are 11am-​4pm, every day of the week for breakfast and lunch, 8am to noon for breakfast only on Saturdays and Sundays. The current menu is typical American fare consisting of a basic menu that includes burgers, fries, sandwiches (they also make Cheesesteak sandwiches), ham/​bacon and eggs, biscuits and gravy, etc. Nothing fancy but the food is good and the service is great. There are a few tables and a small TV in the small dining area right where the kitchen is located. A cozy, friendly atmosphere. They don’t serve drinks in the café but you can easily grab your choice of beverages and other foods from the store as part of the same tab.
It’s nothing fancy, the selection of items is good although not nearly as wide as what you’d find at other marts and the prices are certainly higher than they are in town. But the trade offs are convenience (next nearest mart is almost 15 – 25 minutes away, depending on which route you take), no crowds of people, quick and friendly service, proximity to boating/​fishing as well as picnicking, ATV/​bike terrain riding and great bicycling areas and a nice overall experience.
There is no gasoline service at this location and a single unisex indoor restroom is available to customers.
