With a combined 65 years in the Bethany and Rock Creek communities, the folks at McBee’s have created more than just a dessert spot—they’ve built a gathering place where connections flourish over delicious treats. Their mission is simple: to offer a cozy, welcoming space where the joys of food, friendship, and fun come together, one crepe, shake, or cone at a time.

Let's start with the croffle first. I know you're probably wondering what it is. A croffle is a hybrid croissant waffle, and it tastes amazing with ice cream and toppings. The hot croffles at McBee's come with toppings like Oreos, honey roasted peanuts, and caramel sauce, to name a few.

Crepes are next up on our list of tasty treats at McBee's. Not sure what that is? Some think a crepe and a pancake are the same thing, but not quite. Pancakes have a rising agent in them, while crepes don't. Crepes are thin and flat compared to pancakes, and are perfect for wrapping around toppings.

When it comes to crepes, McBee’s offers something for everyone. The savory options like The Multnomah are a standout, packed with chicken, muenster cheese, and a sweet pepper spread. The Columbia River is another savory option, with smoked salmon, cream cheese, dill mustard, spinach, green onions, and capers. For those with a sweet tooth, there’s the lemon curd and whipped cream crepe, or the ever-popular Nutella and banana combo. But why not go all out with Cookies and Cream or a Nutty Banana crepe? These are the kind of treats that make dessert the highlight of your day.

For soft serve lovers, this cool treat comes in three sizes at McBee's: the mini, the mighty, and the monster. Classic flavors like chocolate and vanilla are always a hit, but for something a bit more adventurous, try the bubblegum, tropical orange, or blue raspberry. And if you’re feeling nostalgic, a root beer or cherry Coke float might be just the thing to make your tastebuds tingle with delight.

Other local favorites include the incredible Dole Whip, a tropical treat that’s as refreshing as it is delicious, and the wide variety of milkshakes and sundaes, each loaded with toppings that take them to the next level.
