Green Frog Cafe in Palouse, WA

As my boyfriend and I were driving back to Pullman from his house in Montana last year, we decided to take a detour and go through Palouse (yes, and actual town). We decided to stop in at this interesting little cafe and see what they had to offer. I think the best description I could give to the atmosphere of the cafe is eccentric and fun! The people are great, the food is amazing and their espresso drinks are the best.

Location

As I said before, The Green Frog Cafe is located just outside of Pullman in a town called Palouse about 15 miles from campus. It's actually a pretty scenic drive from Pullman so you won't be disappointed.

What's the Food Like?

First of all, everything is homemade... EVERYTHING! The cafe serves breakfast foods such as pastries, baked goods, coffee, tea and amazing espresso (with locally-owned Thomas Hammer Coffee). They serve lunch from 11 a.m. - 3 p.m. on Tuesdays thru Saturdays. They have grilled and cold sandwiches, wraps, pitas, soups and salads. Their sandwiches (and breakfast items) are made on homemade bread from Wheatberries Bakery and sliced incredibly thick, yum! The cafe only serves dinner on Fridays and Saturdays 5 p.m. - 7:45 p.m., but they are still open throughout the day serving pastries, espresso and other light snacks. Some of the appetizers include quesadillas, sharable pizzas and a hummus plate. For entrees they have Parmesan polenta, cheese ravioli, a mushroom philly and even some items from the lunch menu.

Quite a unique atmosphere!

Any Specialties?

Every Thursday evening they have live music and some open mic nights as well. The atmosphere is always fun and energetic, and upon walking in, you'll know it's different from your average cafe! They also serve beer and wine as well!

Hours of Operation

The Green Frog Cafe is open Tuesdays and Wednesdays 7 a.m. - 3 p.m., Thursdays and Fridays 7 a.m. - 8 p.m. and Saturdays 8 a.m. - 4 p.m. Their hours are a little sporadic so be careful before you drive all the way there!
