Here are a few of my favorite spots:

  • Boehm's Candies has been a tradition since 1942, and is a staple and a must-visit for residents and visitors alike. You can find specialty products, purchase both boxed and custom gifts and even take chocolate-making classes from their highly-trained staff. I often pop in here to get a box of custom truffles for clients and friends!
  • Gilman Village Specialty Shopping Center is the heart of downtown Issaquah and offers a unique shopping and dining experience that people travel from all over to visit. I love dining outside during the summer at Masa Mexican Kitchen & Cantina or meeting friends for happy hour at Flatiron Grill. At Christmastime, the village comes alive with all things holidays and my favorite shop, Lucky You, opens an all-Christmas store that is a wealth of decorations and gifts!
  • AMARONE in the Issaquah Highlands is a favorite for date nights and client happy hours! Featuring a creative Italian menu with some curated American bites, this has a cool vibe and often highlights local musicians. Check out the link for more details on their special events and holiday meals.
