The Real Twin Peaks event returns to Snoqualmie Valley, Washington from Feb. 21-24, 2025. This celebration of the towns where David Lynch and Mark Frost’s series were filmed offers plenty of activities throughout the weekend. Here is a handy shopping guide for the best places to shop in North Bend and Snoqualmie for wonderful and strange souvenirs.
SNOQUALMIE TRADING COMPANY AND NORTH BEND TRADING COMPANY
One of the first places to stop during a visit to the Real Twin Peaks event is either Snoqualmie Trading Company in downtown Snoqualmie or its sister location North Bend Trading Co. in downtown North Bend. They are releasing a new assortment inspired by the characters, quotes and scenery from Twin Peaks. I particularly love the “Diane, 11:30 a.m.” quote shirt – it’s simple yet effective and perfect for February 24, Twin Peaks Day
In addition to new shirts, you can find other apparel and an assortment of magnets.
A visit to the real Twin Peaks is not complete without taking home drinkware for either damn fine cups or coffee or Black Yukon Sucker Punches. Both locations offer a nice assortment. I use the can-style glassware all the time at home. Don’t forget a coaster!
These locations are also the best place to find Twin Peaks-themed books, such as Scott Ryan’s new “Always Music in the Air: The Sounds of Twin Peaks.” It’s being released in May 2025 but you can get an early copy during Real Twin Peaks 2025.
On Saturday, Feb. 22 from 12:00 noon to 2:00 p.m., Scott Ryan and Em Marinelli are hosting a free workshop about the Dreams of Twin Peaks. Scott will be signing his new book at North Bend Trading Co., located aat 111 E North Bend Way Suite A.
BIRCHES HABITAT IN NORTH BEND
Birches Habitat in North Bend is selling Twin Peaks-themed, snoqualmie and North Bend coasters for damn fine cups of coffee.
This location is across the street from Twede’s Cafe in North Bend and most notably seen in the background of a scene from Part 11 when Deputy Bobby Briggs disarms the child with a gun on the street.
TWEDE’S CAFE IN NORTH BEND
Speaking Twede’s Cafe, this small town diner in North Bend is a must-see destination during a visit to The Real Twin Peaks event.
Since 2020, owners Rachel and Max and their awesome staff done an exceptional job creating a space that feels like you stepped into the show. You can still find poster signs used in the series and they have added a number of replica props inspired by the diner set seen in the first two seasons of Twin Peaks.
I can’t tell you how many slices of cherry pie I’ve enjoyed during many visits to Snoqualmie Valley. I have even shipped their world-famous pie to my home in Florida using Goldbelly. They serve much more than just pie and coffee. I recommend the Tuna Melt with thick-cut fries, the Taco salad or the Teriyaki chicken.
In addition to damn, fine food, Twede’s Cafe has stocked plenty of souvenirs to remember your visit including a small selection of enamel pins of the diner’s iconic sign, pie and coffee, a milkshake for two, a log and a Blue rose.
This is also a great spot to pick up t-shirts, especially a new Twede’s Cafe-inspired shirt designed by @TrashByCash. It includes familiar icons from the wonderful and strange show rising up from a hot pot of black coffee. The Audrey Horne dancing shirt is too dreamy, and the multi-color Laura Palmer presenting her hands in the Red Room is the perfect representation of an incredibly memorable scene from episode 2.022.
Scott Ryan presents a new “RR” logo shirt being introduced during the event.
They have a collection of postcards featuring characters from the show and artwork from memorable scenes.
Other items include hats and beanies with the Twede’s Cafe and “RR” logo.
You can also find stickers, magnet and patches with artwork by @TrashByCash. You can also find select items via their online shop.
DT VINTAGE IN NORTH BEND
DT Vintage and More carries tems from local artist “Diane” including her Twin Peaks-themed paintings, handmade coasters and wood art.
I love the Log Lady-inspired shirt which will be perfect for Sunday night, Feb. 23 at the North Bend Theatre where Richard Green (The Magician in David Lynch’s Mulholland Drive) will give a free sneak preview of a new Twin Peaks-inspired work.
The shop also carries a variety of t-shirt designs inspired by the wonderful and strange show.
In addition to apparel, you can find artwork and accessories such as Blue Rose-themed gloves and “Fire Walk With Me” socks.
CAROUSEL IN SNOQUALMIE
Carousel in downtown Snoqualmie sells Twin Peaks-inspired apparel and carries Pursued by the Bear from Kyle MacLachlan’s winery. I love the new Snapback hats with simple “Twin Peaks” graphics.
They also have a David Lynch pin and Twin Peaks-inspired buttons. The Great Northern Hotel socks are also new this year and will be coming home with me.
ART OF SNO VALLEY IN SNOQUALMIE
The Art Gallery of SnoValley in downtown Snoqualmie is open from 11:00 a.m – 5:00 p.m. daily with artwork from local Washington artists.
SNACK BREAK AT BUCKSHOT HONEY
After all this shopping, I needed a snack break at Buckshot Honey in Snoqualmie. Located in a former Snoqualmie Police Department depot, this outstanding local restaurant is offering The Jerry Horne this year. The location collaborate with Kyle MacLachlan on this Twin Peaks-themed sandwich. After asking Kyle for help, he touched on coffee, brisket and when asked about cheese he reminded Dave of one of the funniest scenes in Twin Peaks – The Jerry Horne baguette and Brie scene!
Buckshot Honey’s The Jerry Horne has smoked brisket with a coffee apple butter and warm Brie cheese served on a fresh baguette! I devoured that thing – it was so delicious! Buckshot Honey will also be offering a Twin Peaks-themed Mocktail called The Log Lady with Pathfinder Hemp and Root shaken with apple cider, fresh lemon, and maple.
DOWN TO EARTH FLOWER AND GIFTS IN SNOQUALMIE
Gordon Cole would love this – a bouquet of Blue Roses from Down to Earth Flower and Gifts in Snoqualmie. This year they are offering a Blue Rose pin-on perfect for the Prom event taking place on Saturday night. If you pre-order now, it will be ready for pick-up on Friday, Feb. 21 or Saturday, Feb. 22 between 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. Retail is $22 each.
NORTHWEST RAILWAY MUSEUM IN SNOQUALMIE
The Northwest Railway Museum at the Snoqualmie Valley Depot is offering a replica model of the historic site.
This depot is one of Dale Cooper’s prospective properties he reviews with Irene Littlehorse in episode 2.012.
DIRTFISH RALLY SCHOOL IN SNOQUALMIE
Dirtfish Rally School in Snoqualmie served as the film location for the Twin Peaks Sheriff’s Department. They have created a three-pin set featuring the Dirtfish Rally School logo, a Sheriff’s Department Ford Bronco and what’s left of Mill #1 from the former Snoqualmie Lumber Company which served as the Packard Sawmill in Twin Peaks. Retail is $19.99.
The white square is piece Lucy Brennan’s desk is from Twin Peaks: The Return. After filming, the desk was updated with the stone-like finish seen in the first image above. They saved square pieces of this desk which now makes for a very unique souvenir from your visit. Retail $19.99.
SALISH LODGE AND SNOQUALMIE FALLS
The Gift Shop at Salish Lodge & Spa and the Snoqualmie Falls Welcome Center carry a handful of items inspired by The Great Northern Hotel and Snoqualmie Falls. They have socks and candles themed to the majestic 268-foot waterfall.
