Timber Cabinn and Cafe

After the initial gold rush to Yukon Valley word got around that this serene land of plenty was abound with the best lumber anybody could wish for. Linden and his troop of lumberjacks quickly ventured to Yukon Valley and set up the beginnings of a lumber industry in the area. With this increase of workers Linden realized a permanent settlement may serve them well, and he ordered his lumberjack to clear the land that would become to much of the land inhabited in Yukon Valley. As travel picked up to Yukon Valley, Linden quickly converted his troop's cabin into a cabinn welcoming all weary travelers with burly open arms and an invitation into the mess hall for some good eating.

Exterior

This quick service dining location is housed in a building designed to look like the log cabins of the north. While the façade isn't made from real lumber it sure seems like it due to the amount of paint and usage of specific materials to give off the perfect illusion to immerse guests. A green roof covers much of the building helping it blend into the trees that are still left in the area after the deforestation led by Linden. A sign goes across the front porch of the building proudly declaring Timber Cabinn and Cafe. On the outside patio various smaller tables are set up allowing for parties of two or less to enjoy the atmosphere the land while dining.

Interior

Inside the Timber Cabinn and Café guests are welcome with a cozy environment. Large pillars seemingly pulled out of tree prop up the higher than expected ceilings. Inside of the lobby for the Timber Cabinn guests will be able to go in three directions. To the left is the entrance to the Sugar Shack, a store specializing on maple syrup and various other maple marvels. Forward is the ordering and food pickup area, and to the right is the seating area for the Timber Cabinn and Café.

Guests ordering will be able to notice a large chandelier handing above them seems to be made from evergreen branches tied together in a circle. Electric candles top the branches providing a warmth to the room. On the walls are various picture frames that hold various black & white and sepia toned photos depicting the backstory of Linden, his troop of lumberjacks, and the deforestation of Yukon Valley. Some say if you look closely into the photo of Linden standing in front of a whole forest chopped down the clouds seem to form the angry faces of the tree's anirniit, their spirits. However that is likely a bunch of nonsense and is in no means a deeper connection into the lore of Yukon Valley.

Above the ordering area a pair of crossed axes, and below them are large oversized menus on the wall allowing for guests to see what is offered here. After ordering guests are given their food and sent off into the dining area.

Dining Area

The dining area is broken into two areas: the large mess hall and the foyer.

The mess hall features tables carved out of wood with their legs seeming to look like mini trunks alluding to the tree that they come from. Many tables use benches with backs carved into logs for seating as a stand in for the traditional booth, and short wooden stools to balance the booths out. Hanging from the trusses throughout the mess hall are various lanterns to help illuminate the area in a warm light.

The foyer is home to a working, fenced off, fireplace that is lit on cold days and nights. On the fireplace mantle various axes are left strewn around the lumberjacks that frequent this establishment. On the wall above the fireplace a large portrait of Linden's family is shown where it is revealed they all are lumberjacks even Linden, who was merely one in the portrait. The tables are much smaller and less detailed in this room as it is much smaller however the chairs have cushions on them featuring the iconic lumberjack plaid pattern. Around the other walls various news clippings from the Yukon Valley Gazette is on display depicting the history of the land.

Menu

The menu focuses on all day breakfast as a nod to the association that lumberjacks seem to with flapjacks, bacon and other breakfast items. Various items on the menu have themed names to lend themselves to the lumberjack theme of the restaurant.
