Guidebook for Vashon
Food Scene
Creative, delicious, unique entrees and soups and pastries and desserts and amazing espresso drinks. It is as Borges said, what is truly native can and often does dispense with local color. Careful observation reveals that Snappy D's is also vegetarian.
Their sister bar, Home Sweet Home is a hidden gem for an afternoon or evening drink. They close earlyish, but go there for down home classiness.

KVI beach is our south facing 'sunny' beach mostly shielded from wind. Don't miss low tide--there is a sand bar that opens up to frolic on. If you are feeling brave, swim after the tide comes in and the top half foot of water warms up...a bit. There's lots of soft sandy patches to play on and it's also perfect for picnics from dawn until dusk. Please remember to be respectful of the beach and the neighborhood.

Drinks & Nightlife
Very much a community place with a bright, warm, and welcoming atmosphere. Some delicious brews, and I've heard a rumor they are all gluten free or nearly gluten free.
