TibbittsFernhill website | 8237 S Park Ave (Tacoma, WA) | best for: breakfast Another restaurant worth the drive from Seattle is the most unassuming, tiny diner-like spot in the Fernhill area of greater Tacoma. It’s owned by Shawn Tibbitts who had a hard life, but who turned it around with his restaurant that is serving some of the best food in Tacoma, Washington. One of my favorite things to do in Tacoma, Washington is make a reservation at Tibbitts so I can start my day with their lobster bomb and French toast. I’m not even a French toast person, but their apple or pumpkin pie version (depending on the season) is honestly the best French toast I’ve ever had in my life. And the lobster bomb is like a deconstructed eggs Benedict with lobster, married with one of those bread bowls you’d get in soup at a fast-casual restaurant growing up (was that just me?!).
