Saturday, May 9th Daily Specials

Tonight is a first in Halfway House history… after 54 years, we are officially hosting our very first prom! The Quilcene Rangers are taking over the restaurant for one unforgettable Casino Royale night, and honestly… we’re pretty sure this place has never looked fancier.

Huge shoutout to our incredible staff for pulling this all together. The dance floor is ready, the DJ has arrived all the way from Cle Elum and is ready to rock the house (she’s also one of the top entertainers at ShrimpFest, so you might even see a guitar and hear some real singing so grab your dates during the slow songs), Katrina and the baking crew are putting together 500 fresh-baked cupcakes for the dessert table, and yes… there will absolutely be a chocolate fountain. Because apparently prom now requires more chocolate than W***y Wonka’s factory.

We’re excited to try something completely different tonight. Usually, Saturday nights around here involve Prime Rib, Seahawks talk, and somebody asking for extra ranch. Tonight it’s tuxes, dresses, mocktails, and teenagers pretending they don’t see their parents taking pictures.

Just a reminder that the Prom Committee arrives at 2 PM to decorate, so we’ll be closing at 2 PM today. Prime Rib Night is moving to Mother’s Day because let’s be honest… moms deserve Prime Rib. They are prime.

And one final prom joke before the big dance:
Why was the skeleton alone at prom?
Because he had no body to go with!

Happy Friday!!! We are gearing up for one absolutely wild weekend at the Halfway House. We’ll go from hosting a full blown Prom on Saturday to celebrating Mother’s Day on Sunday. One minute it’s “shake, not stirred,” the next it’s “did you remember your jacket?” and “text me when you get there.”

Honestly, the building is about to experience the full power of motherhood in real time.

To all the moms out there, thank you for everything you do. We know this weekend means:
• fixing ties
• taking prom photos
• giving last minute life advice
• pretending not to cry during photos
• and somehow still making it to brunch looking amazing

And of course, it wouldn’t be Friday without a dad joke:

What do you call a small mom?

A mini-mum. 😄

Just a reminder that this Saturday (May 9th) we’ll be closing at 2:00 PM for a very special event — the Quilcene High School Casino Royale Prom! 🎲♠️♦️

And wow…we are going all out for this one.

We’ve got:
• A live DJ experience by Jodi Ryan Music
• Mocktails…shaken, not stirred 🍸
• A chocolate fountain
• An incredible dessert tower created by our very own Baker Katrina Boling
• Red carpet and step-and-repeat photos
• A photo booth
• Casino-style games where you can go all in and “ride it on black”

This is shaping up to be an unforgettable night for these students, and we’re honored to help make it special.

We are also still looking for a few nicer outdoor couches or lounge-style patio pieces for the firepit lounge area. If anyone has something we could borrow for the evening, we’d greatly appreciate it! We can pick it up and return it right after the event.

And because of prom, our famous Saturday Prime Rib Night is moving Sunday to Mother’s Day! We’ve attached the special menu, and it’s going to be a great one.

Reservations aren’t required, but if you’d like us to save you a table, just give us a call at 360-796-4715 and we’ll make sure Mom is taken care of.

Thursday, May 7th Daily Specials

It’s a Victory Thursday! Huge congratulations to our Quilcene Lady Rangers Fast Pitch Team for clinching the SeaTac League Championship yesterday! We had an absolute blast celebrating with Ranger Victory Shakes because winners deserve gold victory sprinkles.

And another big shoutout to our Rangers Baseball Team for also bringing home the SeaTac Championship! We couldn’t make it out to the final home game, but boys, come on in because the Victory Shake is on us.

Now both teams continue the road to districts. Let’s keep the momentum rolling… LET’S GO RANGERS! ⚾🥎

And of course, a baseball dad joke that really hits hard:

A man at a baseball game wondered why the ball kept getting bigger and bigger…

Then it hit him.

Wednesday, May 6th Daily Specials

It may be a cloudy Wednesday, but we’ve got something to brighten it up. Cooler weather is rolling in, and around here… we like cool.

Speaking of cool, our Lady Rangers Fast Pitch team has their final home game today with a chance to take the SeaTac 1B Title! Let’s pack the stands and cheer these girls on. We’re also excited to bring the players victory shakes after the game. Nothing tastes better than a win!

And now, a little dad joke to batter you up:

Why are spiders good softball players?

Because they know how to catch flies!

Tuesday, May 5th Daily Specials

🌮🔥 When Cinco de Mayo and Taco Tuesday collide… you don’t just celebrate — you throw a full-blown fiesta.

Happy Cinco de Mayo! A day to celebrate spicy flavors, traditions, and the rich Mexican-American heritage. It’s the perfect excuse to grab some tacos, raise a glass, and enjoy a beautiful culture.

And a dad joke to celebrate with:
I hate Cinco De Mayo!
Said no Juan ever.

May the 4th Be With You! 🌌
Happy Star Wars Day from your favorite outpost in the galaxy…

It’s kind of a big day for our owner… and by “kind of,” we mean if you’ve ever seen his collection, you already know he’s one lightsaber away from applying to the Empire. Huge Darth Vader fan… but don’t worry, he’s agreed to let all you Rebel scum come enjoy some food from a galaxy far, far away.

No Jedi mind tricks needed… just show up hungry.

And of course, a dad joke worthy of the Force:

How does Darth Vader like his toast?
On the dark side. 😎

Goodbye, April… you treated us well. ☀️

Well… about 33 years ago I was on ASB in high school helping plan prom. Fast forward a few decades, and somehow I’m back on the prom committee again… and loving every minute of it.

We’re fired up to be hosting the 2026 Ranger Prom on May 9th right here at the Halfway House. We’re transforming the restaurant into a full “Casino Royale” experience… the gambling and the martinis might be fake, but the DJ, I assure you is real.

Quick ask from the community 👇
We’re building an outdoor fire pit lounge in our picnic area and looking to borrow:
• Outdoor couches or deck furniture
• Gas fire pits

Just need it for one night, and we’ll take great care of everything. If you can help, shoot us a message 🙌

And since it’s prom season, here’s a classic:

A guy waits in a long tux line…
Then a long flower line…
Then a long limo line…

Finally gets to prom, his date asks for punch…
He walks over… and there’s no punchline 😄

Wednesday, April 29th Daily Specials

Well, we missed National Prime Rib Day on April 27th... so we’re making up for it today with a Prime Rib Dip special. Our Saturday night prime rib continues to be one of our biggest favorites, and we sure appreciate this legendary staple of the restaurant.

📣 Listen up Quilcene Rangers fans! The girls fast pitch team has a home game today at 4 PM. Let’s pack the stands and cheer them on.

And bringing back a dad joke classic in honor of prime rib:
What was Adam’s nickname for Eve?
Prime Rib 😄

Tuesday, April 28th Daily Specials

It’s Taco Tuesday! Enjoy the cool rain today, because we’re pushing close to 80 degrees this weekend.

By the way… where did April go? It feels like just yesterday we were hosting our Easter Dinner. Time flies when you’re having fun in Brinnon.

And a shrimply good dad joke for today:
Where do you go to buy and sell shrimp?
The prawn shop.
