Friendly place where the local seemed to regulars. The menu was varied and the food was good. No inside seating but the view from the parking lot (no tables) was great. We didn't need supplies, but there is a market attached. It reminded me of many local markets in the lakeside or seaside towns I've been to.

What an amazing gem. Businesses like this just don't exist anymore. The look, feel and smell of this place is so packed with nostalgia and good vibes it's incredible. The Merc is a Oasis of genuine people, gear and food. The environment is such that can not be recreated by a corporate chain. What a treat.

Stopped in for breakfast on our final morning visiting Lake Quinault. If the Salmon House surprised us the night before, this place blew us away for breakfast on this morning. It was very reasonable and the employees who worked behind the counter were friendly and a hoot. Do not expect to have your food come up quickly. It is prepared with love and a desire to please the taste buds.I am not sure what batter they used, but the pancakes were the bomb. The were big and fluffy with a hint of something delicious (not sure if was cinnamon or vanilla). We had french toast and an eggs scramble that were both awesome. It was a breakfast that hit the spot and left us even a little full. Worth the stop and the wait.

If you forgot anything while packing for your camping trip, they should have all the basics covered, and then some. Plates, utensils, food, beer/wine, various jackets/raincoats, pizza and breakfast served, firewood, camping supplies, toiletries, etc...It ain't cheap, but then again they're the only game in town.

Good food but they are completely overchallenged as soon as there are more than 4 people ordering food at the same time.

Great old building and the owner was a wonderful person. We were able to wander around the store and look at everything. She gave us some of the history of the building and the town.

Very nice people, but the politeness and laid back nature of the place has lead to a very very slow and disorganized service. The menu has a long list of options that all sound amazing but it is definitely far too large. While I was there, I saw about 5 families come and order, and all that was ordered were sandwiches and burgers. A couple of people were smart and called ahead for a pizza. I went in and ordered a pizza at around 6:30 just before the dinner rush of orders, and did not leave until 7:30 and it only took about 10 minutes for my pizza to cook. I know this because I watched them put it in the oven and I watched them take it out. And I’m not blaming the workers, I think that they need one more person to help them out. The food was decent but the service was shameful and slow. If this is your only option while here then call and order ahead but don’t expect it to be ready when you get there.

Great place to stop on the way to ànd from the beaches or if you're staying at the lake. This store has most all of your camping or picnicking needs at a reasonable price. Staff has always been well knowledgeable and pleasant.

We had a great experience here. The vibe in general was so welcoming and laid back. The staff was so friendly and helpful and they really went above and beyond. They have a wide variety of supplies and some really cool souvenirs. Highly recommend visiting here if you're in the area.

We stopped here for a quick breakfast. We were not expecting much it's kind of a hole in the wall little Mercantile store. The sign at the register said we can't promise fast but we can promise good. They lived up to that sign the food was absolutely amazing. We cannot stop telling people about it.

Enough of the basic stuff you might need when camping or road tripping. Firewood is pretty reasonably priced, too

Kitchen was understaffed and overworked, however still put out great tasting food and coffee drinks. Pro tip: call ahead to order, to reduce wait time. There was a line on both visits we made. It took some time to fill the orders. Worth the wait!

Very slow service around lunch. Tasty food, but we waited 15 minutes standing at the register watching the two ladies make sandwiches and pizza for other customers. Took a reasonable amount of time to get the food after ordering.

What a gorgeous town. We were so grateful to have Quinault Mercantile provide wifi. Rain was forecast and we needed internet access for travel information. The store has an excellent selection of stuff.

If they don't have it, you probably don't need it. This is a great stop for anything you may need. My wife had a turkey sandwich and I had the BLT. The turkey was fresh cut (chunky) and not the thin processed stuff. My BLT had plenty of bacon. We both enjoyed the meal and didn't think the prices were too high given the location. All in all, this place is necessary and the owners have done a great job to try and anticipate your needs.

This place rocks!!! Overlook the prices (they gotta stay alive) cause the food is Excellent. Eat in or choose the picnic tables across the road and make sure to have one of their shakes. Great Peeps Too!

This was a great shop to get necessary items that we happened to forget while camping at Willaby Campground at Quinault Lake. We found nice drinks there to take back to our campground as well. They also have bundled wood for $6 which is an excellent price.

Perfect place to pick up a snack on the way to the big ol' Sitka Spruce. They also have a fun collection of hokey shirts and souvenirs. The cafe was closed when I visited, but I can't fault them for that. The world is crazy right now.

Really good food and priced better than the hotel across the street. Lots of tables and chairs inside to eat at. Good selection of groceries if camping and some souvenirs if just passing through.

Friendly staff that were accommodating of a group of college-age campers from a nearby campsite, and while it clearly a fairly old building, it has been taken care of and is a nice place to get amenities when there's no internet or pool to be had (the lake's pretty cold!). The pool table isn't remotely flat though, but that's probably just a knock against whoever put it there, rather than the venue itself.

Overpriced. Waited way too long (45 minutes +). Disappointing costco burgers, frozen fries. Just blah. The portions were not great for the big pricetag. Pizza was worse than school cafeteria pizza.

"Mercantile" is a very apt description. It has a little bit of everything one might need for a weekend at the lake, whether cabin or camping.The cafe serves pretty good food, and prices are on par with about everything else in the area - meaning two people can't eat lunch for less than $20. They do have gluten-free options, if you're into that sort of thing.Thy also have WiFi, for which they don't glare at you if you take too long with your latte. And, they're open pretty late, so you can upload your photos to Instagram after a day's hike.For the mercantile, 4/5 stars for having a decent selection of stuff, and not feeling price-gouge-yFor the cafe, also 4/5 stars for menu, food quality and hours. Far better on all three counts over the so-called "internet cafe" in Amanda Park..

The only thing this place has going for them is the good food. Service was tremendously slow & the staff weren’t friendly at all. If they shrunk the menu & got a couple more employees it would run much smoother.

I love this place! Great for trinkets and unusual finds! They also have great food! Sandwiches are very yummy!

Curly fries, and a juicy burger is just what you need after a hike around the trails. Place is small but everyone is very friendly.

Only people here, been waiting 45 mins for a cold sub and no updates.Edit- Of the 30 years I have spent being alive on this planet, I have never had a worse sandwich than the one I received at the mercantile. It was underwhelming, small, and lacked condiments. Being an Italian sub, it is a disgrace to all Italians. I reccomend a dirt sandwich, because you can get your money's worth, and it'll be done within the decade.

Great selection of food at fair prices. Friendly owners who think of everything that the lodge across the street doesn't offer like microwave and wine bottle opener.

I stop for the cooked food Everytime I go to Quinault. Yes, it takes a while to get your food, but it's worth the wait since everything is made to order with good ingredients and generous portion sizes. If you want fast, find another place, if you want good, this is it!

Stock up here on your outdoor adventure needs. They have a small cafe inside. The grilled cheese sandwich was tasty.
