As everybody in my hometown of North Bend knows that Twin Peaks really help the tourist industry in the Upper Snoqualmie Valley in the early 1990's when the environmentalist ruined the logging industry for timber towns in Washington State. In 1941 North Bend was starting to transition into a trucking town the complete transformation did not happen til about 1975. Tourism is what save most logging towns in Washington State from becoming ghost towns in the 1990's.

This cafe started as Thompson's Cafe in 1941 then in the 1950's the name of the cafe was changed to the Mar T Cafe which became an iconic landmark of the rural town. From 1990 to 1993 this place was known by the pretend name of the Double R Diner in the show Twin Peaks which only lasted one season on ABC in 1990 they did make a movie known as Fire Walk with Me which was before the actual show. The current owners bought the diner in 2020 as Twede's Cafe which was rebuilt after a fire in 2000 and renamed.
This diner has been a stable of Snoqualmie Valley history since 1941 as a place for locals to gather and tell stories about their day.
Please continue to eat at this historic cafe and enjoy a piece of Snoqualmie Valley lifestyle and history in my home town.
