This Timeless 24 Hour Diner Is A Nostalgic Washington Treasure

While it's always exciting to try a new restaurant (especially here in Washington, which is home some of the best food in the nation), there's something comforting about walking into a tried-and-true eatery we all know and love. And if you grew up anywhere near Seattle, you know Beth's Cafe is one of those places. And this 24 hour diner isn't going anywhere.

Beth's Cafe is a local icon that has been open since 1954.

Although it was established as a nickel slots gambling parlor by Beth and Harold Eisenstadt, the cafe has always served tasty food 24 hours a day.

Since its opening, Beth's has won numerous local awards and received national attention, both for its charming atmosphere and giant portions.

Whether you need a stack of pancakes at 7 a.m. or a cheeseburger at midnight, you'll be served with a smile.

Inside, the walls are lined with drawings from patrons of all ages...

...and the tables are piled high with the biggest breakfasts in town.

When you visit this cafe, you will not leave hungry.

Beth's Cafe is nationally known for its 12 -- yes, 12 -- egg omelettes.

If you're not quite as ravenous as some guests, you can always go for the smaller 6-egg omelettes.

Dining at Beth's Cafe is a rite of passage as a Washingtonian.

The next time you're in town, stop in and see it for yourself. Remember, they're always open.
