The 50 best spots for waffles in Seattle

We went for a late lunch on Sat. The restaurant was full but the wait was minimal. I had the shrimp and grits plus a side of catfish. The catfish was really good, crispy and light. I found the shrimp and grits a bit heavy and the gravy monotonous but hubby really liked it. He had the benedict (so so) with biscuit (nice and crunchy on the outside and pillowy buttery soft on the side). My sweet tea was really light and smooth. I would definitely go back for the catfish and biscuits and try more stuff on the menu. Great southern diner ambience. The service was a bit spotty because only one guy was really hustling. The ladies were chatting VERY loudly to each other most of the time so we had to flag them down to order and get served. They were a bit hot and cold.

I had this place on my list for over a month before visiting Seattle. Did NOT disappoint!! The owner and staff are absolutely incredible. The food…. My goodness, truly something special going on in that kitchen!! The breakfast sandwich was absolutely mouth watering. Wife and I would have to say the honey butter smothered brisket with the crispy chicken was the best we’ve ever had! The drinks bloody mary and mimosas definitely hit the spot. And when the first thing to hit the table was these beignets, you know it’s about to be an experience!

Congratulations on their 10 year anniversary! We were recommended this local Black owned restaurant and they did not disappoint. It was my partners first time trying chicken and waffles and the flavours were so good we’re still thinking about it. Take advantage of their happy hour deals on the food and 2 for $5 beers! The staff were so friendly, we would come back just to talk to them. Hopefully we’re back soon :)

Some of the best brunch I’ve ever had. Everything was amazing in a casual setting. Tasted fresh and authentic, cool place with great costumer service. Make sure you try one of their cocktails too, they’re definitely not shy with the liquor. Next time I’m in Seattle, definitely will be my first stop. Highly recommend, but come with a big appetite.

This place should be on everyone’s food map in Seattle (if you have one)! We came in around 5:20 pm, so we were able to be seated pretty quickly (group of 4), which was a relief considering we expected to wait a while to get a table. While we waited for our food, we saw the place fill up pretty quickly, so we were excited about the stuff we ordered. As the people who came before us started getting served and we could see the portions and looks of the items, our excitement was through the roof. We ended up ordering the Fat’s Sampler, Seafood Sampler, and Chicken and Waffles. This has to be some of the best fried chicken I’ve ever had! Perfectly crisp on the outside and juicy on the inside. Their Honey Buttered Biscuit is totally worth the hype too, has to be one of the best Biscuits I’ve ever had. Overall, the food experience lived up to our expectations and we will definitely be back for some more! Service can get slow when the place gets super busy, but that’s okay because we found the wait to be totally worth it. The staff here tries to create a homely, welcoming, and warm atmosphere, which is something that missing in many other “popular” food places around the city. Seeing the staff interact with our tables and others definitely brought smiles to our faces :) Overall, I’d give this place an 11/10 and highly recommend it, even if there’s a bit of a wait involved!

We went here with friends, not expecting they would have much for us as vegetarians, but they were super amenable. Not only did they have good options on the normal menu, but our friend recommended the BLT so we got that and they substituted the bacon with fried green tomato. The sandwich felt fresh and flavorful and worked well with the hot suaces they had. It took a bit to come out but that is because they make everything there so it takes time. Worth the wait. They are also super friendly as well. I think they could single handedly break the seattle freeze if given the chance. Overall a great spot for a southern bite which is not something you would find in seattle elsewhere

I had a very pleasant experience. The food was AMAZING!! Cooked to order - hot and fresh - full of flavor and nice portions. The place was very welcoming with nice Afrobeats, Amapiano, and R&B style music playing. It was very clean and smelled nice. The owners, Erika and Erika were incredible. The two joked with me about how I was in my own world just eating & dancing while awaiting my food, I told them how I just moved to the area from California and Erika told me about some great events to meet new people and have fun. She even went as far as sharing Instagram pages for local DJs and event promoters so I’d know good spots to hand out. Overall I had a 10/10 experience, I’ll definitely be back!

Went there one time and don’t think will go again. Not friendly staff. No service. I also expect facing customer, service food staff very on top of hygiene...Place is expected to open at 7am per website and per note on the door but had to wait past 7am (in the morning cold) for them to open at around 7:15am. Location: downtown Seattle, on 3rd, in front of the light rail. Convenient as central Was disappointed by the waffle, no taste, this is not the Belgium waffle at all.

The waffle batter is so good here! It's made with pearl sugar which holds form after baking so you can taste the sugar crystals. I tried the savory flavored waffles; the Brie bacon basil, proscuitto green onion waffles are super satisfying. This place is pretty quaint inside but the staff is friendly and the vibes are good.

Berry compote waffle had a perfect mixture of fruit and taste. Waffle batter made from brioche. Had the 8 ounce Latte which was perfectly created. Small seating area but keeps moving.

Love all the waffles we ordered, especially the Prosciutto, crème fraiche & green onions one. This is the first time that I have a savory waffle, and it totally blows me away, changed my views completely. Waffle could have more flavors than just sweet!

Great little place to get fantastic waffles. Great variety for both the sweet and savory selections. A good unique place to get some food and some coffee.

I LOVE this place! Fair warning the location on 3rd is tiny (I believe the sign says there's seating for 12) BUT don't let that dissuade you from coming in. I don't think there's anything on the menu that isn't good. The prices are great and the portions are great. If you haven't tried it you should..... You WON'T be disappointed. (Pictured are the berry compote and the strawberries and cream)

Mmmmh... Delicious authentic homemade waffles! I had one with strawberries, Nutella and whipped cream and it was great. The staff is very friendly and helpful, however even though they weren't too busy, no one came around the counter to clean the tables or rearrange the chairs. I paid around 14 dollars for the waffle and a small mocha which is quite a lot but it was worth it.

They said the wait for a table would be 45m to 1hr 15m. They ended up seating us within a couple minutes so that was nice! Service was good and timely. The food was alright. I wasn’t expecting cold hollandaise on the eggs benedict so that threw me off, but maybe that’s just typically how they make it there. When we ordered biscuits and sausage gravy we were expecting it to be your average American diner biscuits and gravy but it was definitely different in taste and appearance. Still tasty though. I also got a hot vanilla oat milk latte and it was very good. Would probably come back just to try some other menu items.

While in Seattle we were looking for a really good breakfast spot, when we found Glo's. The decor is reminiscent of mid century modern and the staff are all very friendly and warm. I ordered the black bean omelette and my wife got the pancake. If you are looking for a small bite to eat, be prepared to take home a lot of food because the portions are large. I've never eaten an omelette with Black Bean chili in it, but I hope it's not the last time. It was nothing short of delicious, as was the pancake. The hash browns come served in a mound and are next level delicious.

Went here near closing time, the atmosphere is very vintage which is cute juxtaposed in the Cal Anderson Park area. Service was fine. Got at least a check in on how we were doing at the very end (as I was writing this review) but not from our assigned server. So I'll be a bit understanding but I've also worked a ton in food so it's still unfortunate. We ordered the Eggs Benedict (I tried the hash browns but not the eggs Bennie. I'm not a hash brown guy so I'll give it a 6/10 but again, not my thing. I myself ordered the Belgian Waffle and Lox Bagel. The latter was a surprise to see something so East Coast out here! Lox Bagel had PLENTY of Salmon so it actually can justify the price and it was brined well. Capers, tomato, and onion all standard affair. Bagel is fine. 7/10. The Belgian Waffle was also pretty good and the whipped cream and butter with strawberries made it pretty tasty! 7/10. The price though of all three of these things came up to $67 before tip! Very expensive! Got no coffee or anything else. That combined with non-existent service (not good or bad) means I can't really justify the value proposition even with it tasting good to something to return to regularly. Overall, 6/10⭐

When I went there was a short wait. Glo’s is a solid diner food spot. Not much to rave over. The service was great! The pancake batter was delicious— I enjoyed that out of everything else. Omelet was pretty good. Tad bit salty but okay. The hash browns were good. I would say they offer great food portions! So, you are getting your money’s worth. Recommend if you’re in the area.

Pros: the hasbrowns were good and well seasoned, the Bloody Mary had a unique flavor and nice to have a little bacon slice along with it. We both thought the food was pretty decent. Cons: Yes it was Sunday morning but we waited over an hour for a table. We were okay with that, but then the food came out super slow too. The mimosa you get for $9 might as well have been in a Dixie cup it was so small. The omelet didn’t really seem like an omelet, just a scramble that they folded into shape. I like my omelet to just be egg and the ingredients stuffed on the inside, but this was all mixed together. Overall: it’s good but considering the wait time and plentiful option in Seattle, I think this was a one time affair.

Cannot say enough good things about this place.. Was never a fan of hashbrowns ever but THIS PLACE MAKES THE MOST DELICIOUS HASHBROWNS EVER !! Not kidding.. Oh what delightful and tasty breakfast and brunch options and such warm service.. The staff was SO kind, sweet and nice… Came here multiple times, and tried several breakfast and brunch options that were eggs and bread centric.. ALL FANTASTIC !! The coffee is SPOT ON !! Mos def a place to come back over and over again….

I read an article that this is the best brunch spot and Seattle. While I didnt visit all brunch spots to know for sure, this place did not disappoint. The salmon scramble was absolutely delicious. There was an hour wait which sucks, but hey, when you're the best, that's to be expected on a Saturday morning. The only issue...albeit, very, very minor...they have a 2 drink max. I get it, you want to be able to get people in and out efficiently. Sometimes bottomless mimosas is the way to go...especially when their are visitors from out of town. Superb brunch.

THE BEST BISCUITS with the best flavors!!! I was so thrilled they had a chicken gravy as an alternative to pork, the coffee was so well made and presented, the vibes of every server and cook was upbeat, fun, and knew how to infuse kindness into the food. I’ll always crave this comfort food and sweet place to fuel up!

Incredible biscuits! It’s a perfect combination of soft & crunchy and sweet & salty. The presentation was grand and these sandwiches are definitely a fork-eating situation. Coffee drinks were top notch. They make REAL 6oz cappuccinos!

I’ve been wanting to try morsel for months now and I finally rode my bike there and had a delightful experience. The biscuit was on point! Flaky in the way that makes you pause and appreciate layers. It was warm, lightly golden, and the chives went together well with the bacon and egg. And then there’s the tomato jam!!! I love me some tomato jam so this is why I opted for the “Fast Break” sammie. It’s just sweet enough to lift the biscuit, tangy enough to keep things interesting. I wanted a pile of that tomato jam on my plate honestly. Like my other reviews I dig my sauces!!!! I’ll be back. It was very filling and I didn’t even need to eat for the rest of the day! The workers were kind and upbeat and very welcoming once you walked in the door. Interesting decor inside too! Good vibes!

I am baffled by the high ratings here, but the bar is quite low for Seattle breakfast cuisine. You are met with a terribly thought out design upon entry with the order counter 3 feet away, pushing customers onto the sidewalk. The prices are astounding even for U district where restaurants prey on the disposable income of the students. A plain biscuit with jam costs $6. One biscuit. A single espresso is $4. They have the audacity to ask for a tip, up-front, in an establishment that makes you pick up your food/coffee and bus your own table. The biscuit itself is decent but that's not saying much given the weak competition. A bit too long in the oven. There are signs it is made from scratch but other signs that point to a premade scenario. Overall it works for a quick bite but nothing memorable here and clearly the status quo for owners with tipping shenanigans.

Overall rating: 4.7 A bit of a travel if you’re coming from the city. Visiting from the east coast, gives a bit more college energy than I was expecting. Cheddar chive biscuit The fast break Food was very filling, but almost wish there were recommended options. It’s hard to choose!

Take it from someone who grew up in the South, if you have been searching for a REAL Southern- style buttermilk biscuit, not a drop style, but tall, tender, flaky, not over-overbaked, with a slight crisp on the outside, and the perfect not- too-moist, not-too- dry crumb… MORSEL IS IT!! I got the Fast Break which is bacon egg and cheese with tomato jam on a buttermilk biscuit. It comes with the most delicious, savory, tangy, sweet, tomato jam, thick cut bacon, and folded egg that is actually seasoned, and melted cheddar cheese that has dripped over the edge and gotten slightly crisp. When I tell you, it’s all my favorite things in one sandwich, I am not kidding! You can tell everything is made from scratch and with love here. I will definitely be back.

I used to live on the same block as their Morsel and Bean location in Ballard before moving away, and I’ve been craving it ever since. Delicious as always, staff are lovely, and it’s a great spot to hang out and work during the day.

Hi-Spot Cafe is an absolute gem. The breakfast is excellent—hearty, flavorful, and clearly made with care. The whole place has a cozy, charming vibe that makes you feel like you’re enjoying breakfast at your grandparents’ house out in the countryside. There’s a genuine charisma to the space that’s hard to find these days. A little cleanup and some light maintenance would really make it shine and push it to a 5-star experience. Still, it’s a spot I’d happily return to.

A unique spot for breakfast and brunch which we really enjoyed. The food we had was absolutely delicious - we tried the breakfast tacos and the corned beef hash which were amazing. The staff were super friendly and the prices were very reasonable. Clearly a popular spot so we had to wait a little for a table but well worth the wait!

Interesting as when you walk in it doesnt look like a big restaurant. It's just a cafe at the entrance. Turns out there's an entire labyrinth of tables in the back. Food is good, fresh ingredients. I ordered the French toast which had real fruit and maple syrup. Americano was awesome! Service was great! I'd go back or if you're in the area make the trip!

We got the salmon omlette, corned hash beef & bacon. Everything tasted great & good service too. Especially thick cut bacon which is hard to find in many diners! The only thing that sucks a bit is there can be a bit of wait but not way to check your position in the line so you gotta keep coming in and checking.

We were looking for a brunch spot to take friends and stumbled upon Hi Spot. We put our name in and waited about 20min but it was prime brunch time on a weekend so it was expected. The food was delicious with tons of great options. Everyone had a hard time selecting because they wanted to try so many things. I had the breakfast burrito and it was delicious and huge. The coffee was great and they kept refilling which I love. There is indoor seating and a patio but the patio has a roof and heaters so it's really an all season space. The staff were phenomenal. They were friendly and accommodating and their service stood out. Lots of people are nice and friendly, but the person who helped us just left me with a good feeling and like she was glad we were there.

Thoroughly enjoyed my meal. Portion sizes were very generous. Customer service was okay. The restaurant has a very cozy vibe with a coffee shop downstairs

I have been coming to Hi Spot for years, and have always loved the food and the service here! Unfortunately, I’ve been having some not so great experiences recently including a really concerning experience that have been sitting with me. First off, I’ve been seeing a certain barista more and more in the cafe, I think his name is Michael (mitchell?) who seems to never be in a good mood, who I have now experienced outright hostility from. He acts like my questions and pleasantries are dumb, and has made the experience of getting coffee from hi spot honestly unpleasant. I absolutely understand everyone has bad days and I’m not asking for sunshine and roses, but being cordial is not an unfair ask. Additionally, a couple weeks ago I went in, had my usual sammy Sue, and the 2 waitress serving me were great. However, at one point a man (who I think was the owner/manager?) shouted quite aggressively at one of the servers. It was upsetting and confusing since the waitresses and kitchen crew was managing a busy day well. It was disappointing to see at this Madrona staple! There seems to have been a culture shift since the old owner moved on, and it makes me wonder if maybe the aforementioned unhappy barista man might be that way as a result of management, especially from what I’ve seen. Do better! Treat your workers better! We as customers are feeling it.

When I make it out to b~side and get any of their food, the day starts off phenomenal. Yes, I have had everything on their menu. And I would have it all again and again. But the sandwich, spicy, with mushroom is my go-to. So much so, it's gone before I remember to take a photo. I guess I have to go again now...

Simply impeccable every time! I love everything and can't settle on a favorite. Always love the seasonal frittata. Fresh, flavorful, simple ingredients prepared expertly. Affordable deliciousness. I could eat breakfast here every day.

How lucky were we that our air bnb was right down the street? We happened to grab breakfast here on a Friday and we didn't realize were lucky to have no line. When we went back on Sunday - HUGE LINE! I would say the food and drinks are worth it but I'm glad we didn't have to. Really yummy frittata with side salad and SUPER good but spicy house made hot sauce. The rice bowl was also a warm and nourishing start to the day. This place is charming, reasonably priced and the food is delicious. All the perks and no pretention. What more could you want?

I've traveled all over Asia for months eating the strangest food I could find without any issues. It's been over 24 hours since I ate this, and I can't stop farting... The service is meaningfully slower than the website warns it is.

Really great Egg Sandwich! b~side foods is located within another business (Analog Coffee). They have a pick up window for to-go. If you want to dine-in, you will have to go through Analog Coffee and order there. --- This place is really popular on Saturday morning, but the line moves fast. We were in line for about less than 10 minutes. There were a few spots left for dine-in as it is a shared space with Analog. --- We got the Egg Sandwich (really great) and the Nutella Brioche (good). The spicy version isn't spicy, but has a nice kick to it. --- There was a restroom inside but it was behind a closed area so I'm not sure if people can use it. You can probably ask to be sure. No dedicated parking, and parking in the streets can be hard to find in Cap Hill. --- Definitely going back just for the Egg Sandwich alone. Highly recommend it if you're in the area.

If you are a fan of fermented foods then you must try the rice bowl (with hot sauce). It’s loaded with a bunch of delicious and unique fermented vegetables. The breakfast sandwich also slaps.

This neighborhood “hole-in-the-wall” eatery is a gem that inspires a happy, friendly, community vibe. Not only are the staff friendly, helpful, and efficient, but the customers are likewise: neighborly, nice, chatty, and happy to be there too. Strong hot coffee, the drip is more espresso-like and it’s a satisfying pick-me-up, while the cold brew packs a rich flavor punch too (highly recommend both beverages with cream & sugar); Quality can be expected because both beverages come from the adjoining coffee bar. The food is equally good; Our brunch consisted of: the Rice Bowl and the Chickpea Salad, both fresh, delicious, and satisfying … Both dishes were well crafted & artfully presented. Next time we will probably order ahead and pick-up; Although we scored one of the 3 patio tables this morning, we might not be as lucky next time. The food is well worth the effort. Food and coffee bar are conveniently located next door to Thomas Market, a neighborhood grocery store that is more than that. But street parking is tight (typical of Capitol Hill) and so walking there is definitely a less complicated way to go - or maybe rent a scooter or e-bike!

Was looking to catch up with some of my best girl friends over a girly brunch and stumbled upon Portage Bay in the University District. I seriously did not realize how popular this place was--but wow, I get the hype. First tip: MAKE A RESERVATION ON OPENTABLE. I was lucky enough to snag one (bless), and even with a reservation, we waited around 15 minutes to be seated. It was a Sunday brunch, so we expected a bit of chaos, but it still felt overwhelming. There was a line out the door with people waiting outside, the level of noise in the space is quite loud. While waiting for our table or even seated at our table, it was a bit hard to hear one another. This is not the space for a quiet girly brunch for sure. That said--would say the food is 100% worth it. Don't come hungry or hangry as it did take close to an hour for our food to arrive (yes, we were HANGRY), but when it did, the first ten minutes was silence of devouring our meal. Service was okay, the servers seem uninterested to be there, barely checked in - we had to ask about status of our food and get his attention. We ordered the Smoked Salmon Benedict, Seattle Benedict (with Dungeness crab!), 2 Rancher Breakfasts (3 eggs your way, house potatoes, one with chicken sausage + pancake, the other with bacon + French toast). Honestly such a cute idea to do a berry bar, the menu lists items that gives you access to a literal berry buffet--fresh berries, whipped cream, butter... The benedicts were the best menu choice--rich, flavorful, and perfectly portioned. The Rancher Breakfasts were huge and hearty--perfect for anyone rolling in with major hunger. The chicken sausage was flavorful and the potatoes were crispy on the outside, soft on the inside. I am a BIG pancake girly, and their pancakes were giant, fluffy, with the perfect hint of sweetness. I ate my entire meal plus one pancake and still had leftovers for dinner and breakfast the next day. No regrets. The coffee here is just okay. Seattle has no shortage of amazing coffee shops, would recommend saving your caffeine intake for one of those instead--which we did, shoutout Ugly Mug Coffee, which was the move.

Going here for a solo breakfast is a lovely treat. They always serve you fast and the food comes out so quickly. Consistency is everything to me when I go out to eat. I like knowing the it will be as good every time. Potatoes are always cooked to perfection. I had the Avocado toast with poached eggs.

Portage Bay is a chain of cafes in Seattle, the one in U District is pretty solid. The quality of the food is clearly very high, there menu ranges from sandwiches to breakfast stables to seasonal dishes like crepes and such. I personally have been here around 3 times, the environment is very very busy on the weekends, however the service is fast and attentive to whatever your needs are. I dont have a photo of it, but they have a toppings bar with some of the best whipped cream I've had - it also has a plethora of fresh berries. Overall great spot for brunch with the parents, I would recommend getting a reservation before you go for sure.

I liked the ambience and the food quality. If you order something from berry menu, then one serving of berry farm is complimentary which was cool. I got the banana foster french toast which was very tasty and the portion was also adequate. The place is huge and clean. Parking is a bit of struggle, we ended up doing street parking one block away. There was a wait for 30 minutes. I think our server did not do a good job as he did not let us know about the complimentary berry bar if you order the item from berry menu, we saw it in menu and had to ask him about the same.

The food was okay but did not match the price. It's $11 for oatmeal and $11 just to access the berries. The eggs benedict was good but a little dry and I don't need to have it again. We did find some mold on raspberries at the berry bar. Raspberries are tough but they're charging for the freshest and not delivering. They have lots of windows, so it feels nice inside, however the parking is limited. I do not plan to return but wouldn't actively avoid the place if my friends invited me to meet there. We had eggs Benedict, pancakes (comes with berry access), and 2 coffees. Somehow we spent $75 after tip.

Extremely disappointed with this place and will never order from them again. I placed an online order, but when I arrived for pickup, the food was nowhere to be found — apparently someone else took it or they just forgot to make it. Instead of resolving the issue, the staff simply told us they’d “look into it,” leaving us waiting for over an hour with no updates. The employees showed NO accountability or empathy (I don’t think they care whether we get the food at all), and their lack of cooperation was totally unacceptable. If this restaurant cannot properly handle online pickups and orders, they shouldn’t offer the option at all. Management seriously needs to train the staff better or reconsider their service model altogether.

One of the best breakfast restaurants I been. Ordered the Seattle Benedict, not a fan of arugula, but it was fresh and made a great combination with the hollandaise sauce. Pancakes puffy and large. My friend also enjoyed his dish and sausage. Would come again and recommend.

Good brunch spot on capital hill, got my family of 4 in on Mother’s Day rather quickly. Good service, decent coffee. Parking is a bit difficult and the sandwiches a bit messy but overall I’d go again!

Was excited to try this place for Saturday brunch…. it was ALMOST good. Maybe it was an off day. I asked our waitress if the gravy that comes with the breakfast skillet would be provided on the side, and she confirmed that yes, it was. When I received it, portions of the skillet were drenched in gravy… it was wayyy too salty to the point that whatever I ate under the gravy was unpalatable. Was not happy with this, especially after I had specifically asked. :( The stack of pancakes were nice and fluffy though!! So this was a sliver of redemption. The bacon for Your Way was several touches too crisp, it was like eating chips. The chicken for the chicken and waffles was well-seasoned but under fried with a soggy crust, but the cornmeal waffle had an interesting texture; it wasn’t crisp like we were expecting and also borderline soggy, but we ended up deciding it was alright. Just some minor tweaks are needed.

We got the chicken and waffles plate and the chicken sandwich. The chicken has a heavy pepper flavor, almost like that is the only seasoning that they use here, the good side is that the meat was tender. The waffle is a bit lacking in flavor. The jalapeno aoli that comes with the sandwich is unnecessarily spicy, we thankfully got it in the side, but the sandwich needs some moisture so make sure to get something if you order this. The only good side about this place is that the food is very filling.

Super cute space. Staff was friendly. The food was mid. The Cluck Chub was decent. The Breakfast Skillet was 👎. It was super pricey given the food quality. The portions were great but didn’t out way the quality.

My food was great. Not that many people in diner when I visited. Highly recommend their chicken sandwiches. Parking can be tricky for first time visitors.

A diner like setting with ok food. I found the sizing of the portion to be large which is nice. But the taste of the food was too salty They give a 10% discount for a 5 star review on yelp, so if you look at the reviews on that platform take them with a grain of salt

Eight of us walked in at the 10am on a Saturday and were able to be seated immediately. Eddie our server was awesome. Lots chicken and flavorful combinations of breakfast and lunch served all day.

This was the best breakfast I’ve had since I’ve been here. The coconut pancakes and the French toast with blue berry compote were amazing. We wish we found this place sooner, I would have been happy to have breakfast here daily. Our whole family will return next April and we will be sure to have breakfast here more than once. I’m so happy to have had the chance to eat here. Thank you.

Like a flashback from the early 2000s, this place took me by surprise. What a celebration of flavors and textures! At a glance, the dishes may seem simple, but they are perfected down to every ingredient. Pictures won’t do it justice. Having grown up in the southeast, these are the meals I grew up on, but better. These aren’t your grandmas French toast. They are the ideal version she always wishes it to be. Do yourself a favor, and take your whole family here. Expect a wait, but know it will be worth it. The staff are honest, pleasant, wholesome and the food is of the highest quality. Love!!!

I’ve been coming to Geraldine’s Counter for over 15 years, and the food is as consistent and comforting as ever. Their special today, sour cream pancakes with blueberry butter was out of this world… fluffy, slightly tangy, and perfectly balanced with the sweet butter. The sourdough toast with jam is also a must, thick cut, toasted just right, and paired with the best jam I’ve ever had. You can truly taste the love and care in everything they serve. Be prepared for a bit of a wait, especially during peak hours but it’s always worth it. The staff are kind, the portions are generous, and the vibe is cozy and welcoming. A true neighborhood gem.

Tried their spinach feta cheese omelette which was great and basil pesto scramble which was exceptional, very different concept. It was delicious and fresh. They make their own raspberry jelly to give with the toast which was very fresh. Robert, our server was very warm and welcoming and explained the menu really well as this was our first visit to Geraldine’s. Would definitely come back to try other things on the menu.

Great brunch-lunch restaurant with a large variety of dishes. High quality & delicious classic dishes. The highlight was the French toast. The salad was also huge and great. Mostly recommended for brunch in my opinion :)

When my brother suggested we go to Geraldine's Counter for a late lunch, I was quite hesitant. It was 1:50pm and we were in North Seattle. The place closes at 3pm and it was Memorial Day, so I was worried that we would not get served so close to closing time. My brother told me it was worth the try, and that I would like it. He was not wrong. We split a half order of the French toast, I ordered the casserole, and he had the chicken fried steak. With coffee, a lemonade, and a side of bacon, the bill was not cheap, but yes, I would say it was worth it! The food was excellent, well presented, and the staff were extremely friendly, despite our late arrival. Columbia City is a little far to go for a meal, but I would definitely do it again.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ My 5-star rating says it all—what an amazing experience! The food was absolutely delicious. I had the French toast with raspberry preserves and fresh-cut strawberries… scrumptious doesn’t even begin to describe it. Highly recommend!

Super cute spot. Came here before hitting the Asian art museum. Coffee was so good... perfect micro foam! Toast was amazing! It was pretty small inside but there is outside seating as well. Definitely worth a visit. Cookies are super good too!

My favorite cafe in Seattle so far! You can take a nice walk around Volunteer Park and stop by this cafe for a treat or beverage afterward! I recommend the crumble cake (100/10)! This time I got the bagel breakfast sandwich, which is delicious as well! Highly recommend!

A nice little coffee shop/cafe in the neighborhood north of downtown Seattle. The two drinks we ordered were both tasty, and we also enjoyed the chocolate chip cookie with cherries along with the yummy carrot cake. This place has limited seating inside and unfortunately all tables were being used by people no longer eating or drinking but working on their laptops. Unfortunately this is allowed and means no seating for new paying customers.

Found this gem while completing a neighborhood stroll. Such a quaint place. In the middle of a residential area, tree lined streets. Street parking. Limited tables. Coffee, pastry’s, etc. pet and kid friendly. Lines might be long and tables go fast.

I like this cafe mostly bc it’s the closet cafe to the park. The food is Ok; not amazing but at least it’s not too heavy and the beet hummus had a nice garlicky flavor. The portions are on the small side. Seating is limited so prepare to wait for 15-30 min. for a table. They haven’t implemented a time limit on tables which they should given how popular it is on weekends during the summer. Overall, this is a decent cafe if you’re looking to grab a small healthy bite before heading to the park.

The breakfast sandwich was absolutely delicious — it really lived up to its reputation. I especially loved the crispy bits of bacon mixed in; they added such a nice crunch. The egg was soft and moist, and of course, the bread was great too. For dessert, I ordered a banana muffin, a mini crumble pie, and a chocolate cake — all of them were amazing, but the chocolate cake stood out the most. It was rich and fudgy without being too heavy, and it paired perfectly with the cappuccino I ordered. The cappuccino was smooth and nutty, and my friend keeps saying we should go back again just for that chocolate cake!

We lucked out finding this place after visiting the Asian Art Museum in a charming area of the Capitol Hill section of Seattle. The cafe is small and homey with welcoming staff. Although the menu is limited (breakfast/lunch), the food is inventive, homemade and delicious. We thoroughly enjoyed the avocado toast with Za'star, mushroom soup and potato topped bread. This is a must come back to place for us!

Pre-warning before you dive into this review: I went to this spot with every intention of trying a traditional Filipino breakfast… and then totally caved and ordered French toast instead. Shame on me—I know. That said, the experience was still a good one. The service was friendly and efficient, and the basic breakfast I had (French toast, eggs, and sausage) was solid. Definitely hit the spot, even if it wasn’t what I should have been ordering. I actually came here on the recommendation of a trusted food-loving friend who did go the traditional route. They had the classic Filipino breakfast and gave it two thumbs up—so next time, I’ll do it right and embrace the culture a bit more. A few things to keep in mind before you go: You walk in, order at the hostess both, pay, and then you’ll be seated—usually pretty quickly, depending on how busy it is. I didn’t wait long at all, but I can imagine it getting crowded during peak times, so just be prepared for a bit of a wait if you're going on a weekend or with a larger group. Overall, good vibes and good food. I’m definitely coming back to try the real deal next time.

Hands down, one of the best breakfast spots I've ever been to. My husband says that the ube pancakes changed his life. And this went down as my death row meal. being Filipino, this felt like a home away from home with the combo meal. The rice was perfectly cooked, the sausages were delicious, lumpia amazing, loved the addition of the melon as a side. We also got POG and the butter mochi which was also SO good. I make mochi probably once a month and it does not even kinda compare to what we had at Ludi’s! Service was great, the line was well worth it, it felt like having a bunch of Filipino grandpas walking around checking up on us. Amazing experience!

This is the first time I have eaten here, and I can not wait to go back. From what I have heard my wife and I got lucky. We did not have to wait for a table. I had the loco mocco and it was delicious. The food came quick and the staff was very nice. I have heard this place can have along wait at times. When you walk in you do order and pay before they seat you so it's good to look at the menu ahead of time so you know what you want once you get to the front.

This is hands down the best restaurant in town! The owner Tito Greg is the most hospitable, humble,Super kind and friendly person we’ve ever met, and the staff are just as warm and welcoming. The food is authentic Filipino cuisine—flavorful, comforting, and absolutely delicious. The ambiance truly reminds me of home in the Philippines. A must-visit for anyone craving great food and genuine hospitality. 100% food quality!! Highly recommended and will always go back even though we are 1hr far from the area.

Ludi’s absolutely blew me away. Even while waiting in line on a chilly morning, they handed out hot chocolate to everyone—such a thoughtful touch that set the tone for the whole visit. The food, the vibe, the history, the hype… it’s all real, and it’s all incredible. The owner even came by to chat, we took a photo together, and gave me his number so we could stay in touch. That level of warmth and hospitality is rare, and it made my day unforgettable. I can’t recommend Ludi’s enough—this is a must-visit spot in Seattle. Just wow. Thank you!

Waiting in line is totally worth it! I love the fact that you had to order right away before getting seated to ease the process. We went on a Friday. My partner ordered the tocino-silog and I ordered the combo-silog with a side of bangus sisig and calamansi juice. It was THE BOMB! Whenever I dance in my seat is when I genuinely love the food and I rarely do that. I love the fact that everyone is so friendly and Tito Greg gave us lumpia and bibingka on the house to try! What an awesome guy! My favorite was the fact that the food were not overly seasoned because they have so many sauces to choose from to enhance the flavor profile. If we lived in Seattle, we'd go here every time. Until next time Ludis! We appreciate the amazing experience!!!

Ludi's was the best breakfast my husband and I had in our week in Seattle! Was so delicious we went 3 times--and I would absolutely go back. As a Filipina living in NYC it has been so tough finding authentic Filipino food in any area so visiting ludi's in Seattle was an absolute treat. The lumpia was as yummy as what my grandma used to make and the atmosphere and staff were so cozy and welcoming! The ube pancakes were absolutely to die for and I am going to be dreaming about them until we come back. Definitely make sure to get there early--they don't take reservations and there is almost always a line. The line moves super fast though and the food is beyond worth the wait and at a very reasonable price so you won't be disappointed! I cannot recommend enough. Also hot tip--go Fri-Sun (those are the only dates you can get the ube pancakes and I promise you want them!).

I wanted to love this place but …… I didn’t. Let me explain, the prices are a bit high but the portions are HUGE & you could share a sandwich, if you wanted too! I ordered the Willie Lee & husband ordered the Gus. The Willie Lee was super salty …. The bacon and egg had a Cajun seasoning not sure if that was the underlying issue but it was so salty that I pulled out all of the meat and egg and only ate the biscuit with jam. (I would have liked to see the jam on the side, so I have control of how much I want to add) The Gus was huge but also $26 ….. the gravy had the same Cajun seasoning as well as the egg and was super salty. Hubby ate what he could but didn’t finish it either. The GRITS were the star of the show … I’m a southern girl and these grits were 🔥🔥🔥! If I come back it would totally be for the grits and maybe a plain biscuit on the side.

There were a lot of biscuit-sandwich based options I could've went with here, but I decided to go with the biscuits and gravy - or the Big Al as it's known I don't know who Al is, but I know why they call it Big. The size of this thing is monstrous. I couldn't even see the biscuits under that mountain of gravy, but I'm convinced that either there's more than two, or these are the two biggest biscuits I've ever seen, because I kept on eating and more and more of the biscuit kept on reappearing underneath the gravy. It felt like it was never ending. I was able to finish about 85% of the meal before calling it. The biscuits were pretty solid, although I have to say I was expecting a little better. There was a great crust on the outside, and the inside was pretty soft, but I thought they felt a little dry - especially on the parts not covered by the gravy. Like it felt like I needed gravy in order to eat this, which I don't think a great biscuit should require. I get that other biscuits would have butter/jam/whatever else, and this one has gravy in place of that, but I would say I've had better biscuits elsewhere The gravy, though, is where this shines. It's warm, comforting, and so flavorful. There's large chunks of pork sausage throughout, and that cottage-cheese like texture is practically perfect. I could eat the gravy by itself - biscuits can be optional - it was that good. The egg was also a nice touch, but due to the size of the gravy, it was only able to mix with a small portion. As I mentioned, the portion size is pretty massive. It's slightly on the expensive side, coming out to $18.5 in total, but since you could easily share this with two people it's not bad. Overall, I can't say it's the best biscuits I've had, but definitely the best gravy. 8.25/10

Nice, clean establishment. Nice and big and delicious biscuits. Nice variety of options to go with biscuits. Good coffee in good sized mugs. I liked the apple butter on my biscuit. Had the pulled pork with greens and grits. I prefer rice vinegar on my greens, but what they had was just fine. My companion had biscuit and gravy, which I'll try on my next visit, I'm told it was spicy. 😊 overall a pleasant experience.

I had my best meal in Seattle at Seattle Biscuit Company. The service is excellent, few young ladies are warm and kind. The food is impeccable. I ordered Willie Lee, it is so good that I really need to come back here before I leave Seattle.

Great breakfast spot in Fremont! Biscuits were delicious and the peach-habanero jam was yummy. The interior has a nice vintage look and was super comfortable. We sat right up at the bar and got to watch our food be prepared. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a breakfast spot in Seattle!

Their biscuit sandwich is incredible. I ordered the Gus and the portion size is humongous! The food is very tasty and the vibe is so cozy inside

Seattle Biscuit Company nails it! Massive portions, flaky biscuits that could win awards, and Southern comfort done right with collard greens and cheesy grits. The coffee’s legit too. Come hungry, leave happy, possibly in a biscuit coma. Five stars, no notes.

An amazing place to get all types of desserts and drinks. Everything that I ordered was perfect, not too sweet and lots of flavor. The place was so good that I didn’t really have a favorite, the drinks are so pretty looking especially their new Labubu drink. Their Dubai series was unique and very good too. Overall, super friendly service, I highly recommend and would come back.

What a lovely little cafe! The staff is very nice and very help, and the place very clean. Although the cafe is small, the atmosphere is cozy and welcoming with cute decor and natural lighting. All of the teas and desserts I have tried so far have been cheerily colorful and very delicious. It’s so great that most their teas are available with dairy-free milk. This time I got the seasonal iced blueberry (ceremonial) matcha with oat milk and no sweetener, which was a delightful balance of flavor and very refreshing on my walk home. When you order in person and bring in your own bottle/jar from a previous visit, make sure to tell a barista BEFORE to get a 10% off discount code. Make sure to check out their menu ahead of time, since it might be hard to choose quickly from the large list of offerings, especially with the numerous seasonal items that rotate through. Ordering is super easy from solitary ordering kiosk, but a line can quickly form if someone doesn’t know exactly what they want or get distracted by all of the cuteness. If you like, you can also make an order online for pickup. All the anime and corgi themed reusable bottles (lidded canning jars) are absolutely adorable. AND you can choose from wide range of designs or pick the design of the day as well as pick up a stainless steel boba straw. There’s also a ton of other cute corgi and anime themed merchandise available, too, like shirts, sweatshirts, mats, keychains, and stickers, which you can also order online and have shipped to you.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If you’re in Seattle and craving something cute and delicious—RUN to Moo Bar! 🧋 We stopped in for the adorable Labubu Jazmine milk tea drinks and were not disappointed. The jasmine flavor was perfectly smooth and floral, and the attention to detail with the Labubu design made it almost too cute to drink (almost 😄). The vibes inside were super chill, the staff was sweet, and the drinks were as Instagram-worthy as they were tasty. Will definitely be back for more Moo magic! #MooBarSeattle #LabubuMilkTea #BubbleTeaGoals#TheHeartofMortgage

Omg this place is super cool, staff super friendly, really cool drink selections. If you love Labubu's come get a drink with one on Top! We had the Strawberry milk tea, Tiramisu Viet coffee, Banana pudding Matcha. 🥰😍 Love the cute keepsake glasses the drink comes in🥰

Yummy Taro and brown sugar milk tea! I wanted to go for their cups too, they’re so cute!! The employees were nice. There was a wait time. Small inside so crowds very quickly. Plenty of people walking around at night so I explored a little too while waiting.

Service is good, but I don’t understand why the Mundo ordering device here is charging $1.5 “Tax & Other fees” on my $7.5 order, in addition to tips. This is not reasonable to customers, not to mention the lack of transparency. Also not to the workers, because customers will just opt to no/less tips. I don’t need a SMS service to tell me my order is ready, if I’m waiting in store. Can someone explain?

Adorable cafe, with amazing dessert and drinks. The raindrop cake was what drew me to this particular cafe out of all the dessert places in Seattle, although it was aesthetic, the matcha flavor one was okay, I didn’t find it too special, the matcha was good quality though. I also ordered jasmine milk tea with boba, as well and the mango coconut smoothie, both were as good as I expected. My favorite is the glass cup with cute designs that comes with your drink, good for the planet and worth the extra 75 cents.

If you’re looking for a quick, hot, savory breakfast - Más Cafe should be on your list. The breakfast sandwich was loaded with CRISPY bacon - NOT SOGGY - on a yummy little bun. The burrito was so huge (IN A GOOD WAY) that I had to eat it in two sittings. Get it spicy trust me. The fresh juice was the cherry on top. I have to come back here for lunch and try their smoothies sometime.

What an AMAZING place to eat or drink!!! We stopped here after checking out of our hotel to get something to eat for the long drive. The flavors were outstanding and they had no issues with adding or substituting items for my order. I got the #4 breakfast sandwich and my sister got the #2 breakfast burrito. I added caramelized onions and cilantro to my sandwich and loved it. They have a small parking lot and limited seating, but there is a lot of street very parking close by. Safe neighborhood, friendly staff and a great atmosphere. You will not regret stopping here.

This is a great little coffee shop that serves breakfast and lunch. The tacos here are amazing! They come with onions, radishes, and salsa, and they’re very filling. As a Mexican, it's hard to find a good mole, but the one here is really good! I just wish they had more dishes with mole. The smoothies are delicious, and the frappes are great too. The staff is very friendly. Just be aware that it can get packed during lunchtime. You might want to order your food to-go instead of waiting for a spot to eat there.

Mas Cafe is a great place to grab some coffee and delicious sandwiches. The staff is friendly and the environment is very welcoming— small establishment but you can sit inside and there is outdoor seating too. I highly recommend checking this place out.

The juices, coffee, smoothies are 5 star. Staff is amazing- ao calm, friendly and polite. Loved this spot. We got drip coffee( perfect balance toast and fresh), the cure( juice- melon, avocado, lime, agave) which was fantastic and worth coming back here for juices alone, and the shrimp fajita wrap. Took off one star as the sandwich was good not great / to be realistic in terms of reviews. Could also be the wrap we chose, so will give this spot another try and update the review as i do believe the other sandwiches would be better. Would try the chorizo brekkie sandwich or one of the lunch sandwiches next time instead of the wrap.

THIS PLACE IS DELICIOUS OMG WOWOWOWOW 10/10 recommend. I am here on vacation from Florida and I know I will never eat a breakfast burrito as good as here ever again. I will be back before my vacation ends. Also the service from Erin was absolutely fantastic. The food here is made with love, so so good. Also I’m totally jealous of your money tree.

I don’t have to look breakfast anymore when I’m visiting. Any time and every time. I’m in Seattle this is the breakfast spot. The baconeggandcheese is one of the best Ive had and I’m from New York. The next day we got a ham, egg and cheese and still fire. We also tried the taco, very good.

The BEST waffles I’ve had in a while! They were fluffy and not heavy at all! We got the lemon curd and classic waffles. The lemon curd was incredible. The perfect amount of tart and zesty. Love the crunchy hash browns! The food came out quickly and the staff were really sweet! Not a ton of seating so I recommend coming on weekday. We will definitely be back!

First time eating here: clean atmosphere, full tables, packed walk ways. But this restaurant is full of love and care. Staff were super friendly and kind. Kari helped me out as I was waiting for my food and coloring with their child friendly coloring pages. I asked for hot water, and potentially a lemon because my throat was sore and she offered to put honey in it also. Food was good a bit of a wait but nothing out of the ordinary for a Saturday morning in west Seattle. At the end we were given free Valentine’s Day cards to use curtesy of the staff. Proactive staff in the restaurant and in the community. Awesome place to eat, family friendly, and considerate staff.

I absolutely love Bebop Waffle shop! I live in West Seattle and I went with my wife for the first time today. We really enjoyed it. It was so delicious! The place has a very hipster vibe which made me love it even more. It's also dog friendly, so we brought our little one to eat with us. I will say the staff was very nice, but the service was super slow. It was a busy day so they were probably doing the best they could. This is why I gave them four stars instead of five was because of the slow service. We had the cocoa krispies waffle and the cornbread waffle with the scrambled eggs and cheese. All of the food was delicious and cooked fresh and had delicious flavors. They are known for their novelty waffles. Overall, I definitely recommend this place. The food is incredibly good. The pricing is great as well. Please note, they are very busy on weekends, and their hours are limited. You have to be prepared for a wait! Otherwise, I highly recommend!

Cool vibe, loved the esthetic. Once you walk in, you feel a sense of kindness, and a sweet smile from the staff is welcoming. We googled best breakfast spots in Seattle, and Bebop popped up. My partner and I were excited to find a restaurant that we both could indulge in. I have some dietary needs, and he... well, he has no restrictions, so often I end up with not so yummy breakfast options that are boring, to say the least. I had the cornbread/GF/VG lemon curd waffle and a side of scrambled eggs. It was delish!! The lemon curd is beautiful, silky smooth, and just enough tarte but not too overwhelming. My partner had the Rainbow Madness waffle, which was topped with fruity pebbles, bananas, and whip cream. He barely made a peep while eating, and that says it all, YuMMy! He had the combo breakfast, which was eggs and bacon added. I would say if you are on the hunt for a fun place with a great vibe and good food, definitely give the place a visit.

Love this cozy breakfast place. Their maple/brown sugar butter for the waffles is so yummy. Also, I love the breakfast Sammy with their special aioli sauce, and I add arugula for a little bite. The only thing that would make this place better is if I I was in pajamas and they're serving me in bed. Coffee comes with one free refill, but splurge on their espresso concoctions. They are worth it.

This is a great little breakfast spot. I think they were a little understaffed so there was a wait on our waffles and they were upfront about it. They were quick with our espresso drinks and they were good. They offer 2 gluten-free options and I went with the cornbread. It was very good, not mealy, too wet, or too dry and under great caramel and coconut toppings. My wife also liked her fruity pebbles waffle. This is a good breakfast experience and recommend trying if your looking for gluten-free breakfast

My girl and I came here for Gluten Free/Vegan waffles and breakfast drinks. And our experience was a 10/10 the sweet potato waffles was absolutely amazing! She had hers with strawberry berry jam, whipped cream and honey. I had the original with maple butter and syrup. We also got two iced coffees and the service was absolutely amazing. There is very limited seating so you might need to wait around and snag a table when you can and then order. They has these cute little boot glasses for our coffee and the overall vibe is very cute. Price was around 40 for the two of us with a generous tip.

The food was incredible and the service excellent. Every dish we ordered was delicious and we polished off everything. We visited for lunch and ordered the following: Sweet Pepper Shakshuka, Greek Scramble, Octopus Hash, Como French Toast, Mushroom Kebab, and Chicken Kebab. We had a reservation for four and were seated immediately

We went for breakfast on Sunday morning and it was packed, so we had to wait about 20 minutes. The good thing is they have a lounge where you can comfortably wait. For this reason, I think it’s definitely a good idea to make a reservation. The staff was super kind and attentive — they brought us water while we looked over the menu, and when we were ready we ordered the Eggs Benedict and the Octo hash, which we shared. Both dishes were delicious and generous in portion; honestly, one of the best Eggs Benedict I’ve ever had! The real standout, though, were the potatoes — crispy and super tasty. The coffee they served was standard American drip coffee, which is pretty typical(but expensive tho)and maybe the only thing that could be improved was the drink menu. It would be nice to have a wider breakfast drinks selection, maybe with more coffee options or fresh juices. All in all, it’s a fantastic place to enjoy a great meal. It does get busy and therefore a bit noisy(and pricey)but we’re already planning to go back to try more of the menu!

Had a great time at this place. The server was very friendly and gave us all the information we needed to order our drinks and food. The entree - leg of lamb was a lot of meat and would do good with some salad on the side to with. All good otherwise.

We came in at late lunch time (dinner menu), the manti is amazing, it’s inspired from the Turkish Manti and is very flavourful, the lamb is tender and moist. The chicken kebabs are succulent and arrive at the table with a sizzle, we ordered some pita to pair the kebab with. It’s a great place to people watch, if you are seated by the windows- the service is not hurried and a meal is enjoyable and slow unlike a lot of other places in the neighbourhood.

Absolutely delicious! We started with the Kalamata olive fig spread and blue cheese feta spread - they were good individually and when we tried them together. I forgot to get a photo of the dolmades but they were the BEST WE HAVE EVER EATEN wow yum! Shakshuka was so good. Service was fabulous. Highly recommend!!!

I can’t wait to get weekend brunch here again! We had the shakshuka, the doughnuts, and the octopus hash. All were delicious. Great after a long evening out and worth a wait.

9/28 1pm. Great place, great food. However I wouldve rated the experience higher if I didn’t see a food runner actively popping his pimple on the right side of his jaw line. White chubby guy with glasses semi long brown hair. I also don’t want to slam the business over an employee doing something that wrong. Management please speak to this guy. Had he been our server I would’ve said something thankfully he wasn’t. Overall great greeter, great portions, our server was ok. I would still definitely come back but wouldn’t allow the pimple popping server to handle our table. Thanks

Bakery Nouveau is an absolute Seattle and Seattle area bakery! I am so fortunate to live in West Seattle and have a location next to me! The staff is always really nice and they all provide excellent customer service and they are always upbeat from my experience. The space at the West Seattle location is kind of small and the line can get long, so sometimes they have you line up outside. The space feels very much like a cozy traditional bakery/cafe. I enjoy the decor of the space. The food is absolutely delicious! I love their desserts, which are totally premium quality! They also sell sandwiches and bread, but I have only ever had their desserts. They sell coffee as well for a little pick me up! My favorite desserts are the tiramisu and the mocha chocolate cheesecake. Both of those items are incredible. My wife enjoys the pistachio cake that they make. I also enjoy the Paczki that they make. Paczki is a polish donut. They don’t always have it on regular basis, but when they do, it’s amazing! Overall, I highly recommend Bakery Nouveau if your looking to satisfy your dessert craving, or if you’re just looking for some coffee or lunch type of food!

Overall Rating: 3.5/5 (6/10) Recently wanted some pastries while in Seattle and heard of this spot! Walking in it was a small quaint cafe with only a few tables, which was fine. We were intending to leave with our product anyway! Large selection of Macarons, danishes, croissants, cookies, and more. We selected a strawberry pistachio cake slice, a chocolate covered Madeline, a honey pecan scones, and a pear Danish. I will say it felt a little rushed getting through the line, but it was 9am and they were busy. It just made it hard to get a good look at everything, if we had more time I think we would have chosen different or more options. We got to the car and opened the strawberry pistachio slice, it was good, however way too sweet for my liking, unfortunately couldn't finish it. The Madeline was good! But a bit more dense than we were use to. The scone was for a friend, they really enjoyed it (it smelled and looked good) and last the pear Danish was for my boyfriend. I stole a bite and that was the star of the show! Amazing Danish. I will return again to try other items in the future.

Such amazing sandwiches, bread, and sweets! I love the breakfast options and my favorite sandwiches are the ham & cheese baguette, California club, and BLT. I love you can get a slice of cake if you’re solo or want to try several options. Three downsides to consider. 1. Bread, breakfast, and sandwiches sell very quickly so try and get there before noon so you don’t miss out. 2. West Seattle store is very small & narrow and the lines often go into the street and it’s a bit chaotic honestly especially if it’s your first visit. Hang in there and try and go with the flow of others and you’ll be okay. However, if crowded social spaces make you anxious, this place may trigger you during busy times. 3. They’re closed Mondays & Tuesdays 😩 So try and stock up breads, etc on Sundays if you’ll have a craving. I also want to mention how amazing ALL their staff are. Always polite and kind and patient while you order. I’ve been a regular here -sometimes weekly- for four years and I’ve always had a positive experience (minus the crowded shop) with the friendly staff. Definitely recommend if you’re craving decadent pastries and cake or need a fancy cake for a special occasion. And the bread - good variety. Perfect for your holiday occasions & holiday orders can be placed online for convenient sidewalk window pick up.

So excited sharing my first experience. Very cute place for hang out if there’s a spot, the croissant is fresh (you could tell when you bite into it) cute macarons (very sweet you’ll needed when you’re on low sugar levels) Amazing service ☺️ will definitely recommend this place.

Friendly and helpful staff and tasty pastries and strong coffee I would say this is a grab and go type of place. The line is pretty long though it moves fast. While there are tables inside, it does get pretty loud Took me some time to find it as I couldn’t see the sign with the name outside Took me a while to find it though as I could

I almost missed it walking by. I love the cakes and croissants at BN. I know for a fact that they use good ingredients. I came in 3 minutes before closing. I haven't been here in years. Now that I live close by, I will be here more often. The service people were welcoming and very friendly. They weren't in a hurry to close. This place is a treasure. It's hard to find a bakery that sells cakes with real Italian or French buttercream.

A gem in West Seattle. Artisan breads, cakes other assorted treats. The cheesecake is always a winner. When you come by be sure to visit the husky deli a few doors down and try their famous ice cream.

This biscuit felt like it was curing my hangover even though I didn’t have one. The butteriness of the biscuit and the savoriness of the sausage make for an amazing breakfast sandwich. Despite the small shop and popularity the staff and the ordering system keep things easy and lets you walk around while waiting for your order.

Good but not great IMO! (Sorry.) The biscuits are definitely the highlight—I’d eat a tray—but the filling was meh. (Sorryyyy.) The London Fog is EXCELLENT though. Compliments to the chef/barista. Recommend ordering ahead online.

The food was fantastic! Fresh and homemade 😋. I had the spicy links bichwich and it is the best breakfast sandwich I've ever had. Definitely give it a try. Just an FYI this is not a sit down restaurant. You ordered like you would from a food truck. They have a few tables along the sidewalk.

Cool spot, amazing food, quick service. Fair prices, its best to order online. Good decor and vibe. This is not a sit inside spot, this is kinda a biscuit window with flair, great flair. Good quick breakfast with elevated quality.

Recommended to come here and try some biscuits. I ordered the biscuits with the gravy and scrambled eggs on top and cheese. It was good and filling. Definitely something different. Also ordered a pumpkin coffee drink but I didn't really like it, tasted watery. Girl at front was very friendly, great service!

Food was as advertised, presentation and taste was there. A bit of a wait for a Saturday morning but turned out well after it was all said and done. Worth a try.

No dine in, only carry out. The system is pretty easy to understand. Walk up, order and pay, they have an estimate of how long it’ll take, set a timer on your phone and go walk around until it’s time. That’s what we did and the exact moment our timer went off, they brought our food out. We had the bacon and the hot links biscuits. I’m from TX so when they said these are southern style, I was a little skeptical. But these were really delicious biscuits, I was impressed! And they’re big! It doesn’t really look like it from the pictures online but I was worried it wouldn’t be enough to fill me up - it definitely was.

As a huge lover of brunch, I can say that Bacco completely satisfied my cravings! Let's start with the juices: the Verona and Modena were so fresh and sweet they set a new standard for me. We ordered the Salmon Benedict and the Salmon Omelette to share, and they were both fantastic. The Belgian waffle with berries was a great way to top off the meal. The prices are a bit higher, but if you're a brunch enthusiast like me, the quality makes it a worthwhile splurge.

Went with high expectations but left somewhat disappointed. The Dungeness crab omelette had a noticeably strong fishy smell, though the flavor itself was pleasant. Overall, the food tended to be on the saltier side, and the coffee was underwhelming. One thing to note — there’s an extra tax for using a credit card, and a 20% service charge was automatically added to the bill without option to decline, which made the meal feel less value-for-money.

Cute place. We went here for breakfast and they seated us very quickly. There’s more seating outside behind the restaurant and it’s such a nice area. Food was solid and wait staff was fine.

Started with coffee and then thought to try one of the most popular breakfasts the Dungeness Crab Benedict w/potatoes. The service was decent enough, quick with our beverages, but slower with refills and much slower upon receiving our food. Several tables around us were seated after us and received their food quicker before we did. The restaurant appears to be split into two locations near each other and there are several tables outside along the street, but we dined indoors. It's tiny and you are super close to other tables. The Dungeness Crab Benedict disappointed...it was light on the crab, very sweet (given it also has avocado) and the English Muffins were not toasted. I feel the presentation wasn't so impressive given the price and other reviews online here. But I was disappointed and most likely won't be returning.

I tried the dungeness crab eggs benedict and my companion tried the crab salad; we were surprised to find that both were very cold, and the waiters forgot to bring out dressing. This food was very underwhelming and overpriced and my bill was a little over $100. Not coming here again; extremely overpriced for what service is offered.

This café has it all—cozy indoor tables, a breezy patio, and staff so friendly and fast you’d think they had superpowers. The menu is stacked with everything from classic breakfast staples to French toast that could tempt anyone out of bed. We went all in with Dungeness crab omelets and Benedicts (the crab was fresh and piled high, no stingy scoops here), fruit oatmeal, and the perfect smoked salmon lox-and-bagel melted in my mouth . The fresh juice? Next level. My Greyhound cocktail was hands-down the best I’ve ever had. Plus, there’s a coffee bar for those who like their caffeine straight up. Will always be my go too place

Bacco Cafe was on my list of restaurants to check out during our Seattle trip. Glad we were able to get seated fairly quick on the day we decided to grab breakfast from here. Most days we saw long lines at the Cafe! The French toast came out just the way we requested it to be. Paired with unlimited coffee, we definitely enjoyed our breakfast experience!

A popular local bakery with a variety of donut, pastries, breakfast sandwiches. The food was all good but not great; you might expect something amazing from a bakery, but it seems to fail on that point. Set expectations accordingly and this is a nice quick and cost effective breakfast. Expect a line, dine in seating is shared with Serious Pie until 11am.

Really good breakfast sandwiches but not $14 good. We got the bacon and the veggie sandwiches. The bacon would have been amazing if not for the sauce that is on it. The veggie was good but it was just missing something.

I walked in randomly off the street having done zero research and learned they don’t serve matcha— oops! They recommended Taz nearby, but I still got the smoked butterscotch oat cookie. It was divine! All their baked goods looked amazing, but I popped in 20 minutes before closed so there wasn’t a lot left.

Super cool little bakery connected to Serious Pie. Amazing pastries that change daily. Unbelievable unique Mochi (gluten free) donuts! And one of the best breakfast sandwiches I’ve ever had! Nice outdoor seating as well!

Everything they offered looked SO good. The bakery side of things is absolutely worth going to. I had gotten a blueberry mochi donut and bacon and egg sandwich. The proportion of the breakfast sandwich was insane, but delicious. The only disappointment was the coffee, it wasn't anything especially great, but not bad. I just expected with their food being so good, the coffee would be the same. There wasn't a ton of interaction with the staff, but everyone seemed nice enough. The atmosphere however was very uninspired, really nothing special happening there, but that shouldn't be a reason not to go. Will absolutely be back when I'm in the area again!

My wife and I just stopped in for a quick breakfast sandwich and we were blown away! The bacon and egg sandwich with Beecher’s cheese, arugula, smoked paprika aioli on a toasted English muffin was THE best breakfast sandwich I have ever had in my entire life….and I’ve had some good ones!!! WOW… don’t ever change how you make these!!! Super friendly staff as well!

This place was a great find! I was looking for a delicious breakfast sandwich and that’s exactly what I got. It was super tasty with great, fresh ingredients. I will admit I might have messed it up a little by adding bacon because it did not need it and made it a little too salty. Their baked goods all looked amazing and they had plenty coffee/tea options. Be aware this place shares its space with Serious Pie which is a place on my list to try too. If I’m looking for a good breakfast sandwich and in the area I will definitely check it out again.

Heard about this on MvF so decided to try it out. Omelet was good, cheesey and stuffed but the hash browns were bland even with a dash of salt. Waffle was a tad dry so I ended up using more butter than I normally would. Service was good quick and pleasant.

Beth's is a legendary establishment in Seattle. Great reputation with the locals. It's traditional American breakfast food and we enjoyed our food overall but it wasn't overly delicious. I got the breakfast burrito and it was good not great. We had three different servers help us and all were pleasant but I got the sense they may have been dealing with some other challenges on a Friday morning in July. I'm also not sure how parking works but they do have a few spots in the back of the restaurant.

BETH’S CAFE is one of Seattle’s remaining iconic restaurants. Beth’s puts the FUN in Funky! The restaurant is decidedly old school with amazing original artwork every where. The menu is fantastic and everything is easily shareable. We had a fantastic bacon waffle (don’t know how Beth’s manages to get so much bacon into one waffle and have it come out so wonderful!) Service is warm and friendly. If you’re looking for a good place to eat and want to visit one of Seattle’s classic restaurants BETH’S CAFE should be on your list! HIGHLY RECOMMEND

The lone server there was named Andy, and he was easily one of the friendliest and funniest servers I've ever had the luxury of meeting. My girlfriend and I were dying laughing a majority of the time we were there. I forget the cook's name, but she was super friendly as well. Loved all the drawings up on the walls and ceiling and even left a couple there ourselves. Definitely coming back soon for the good food, environment, and bringing art supplies for more art!

Great experience at Beth’s Cafe. Me and my wife loved all of the customers art on the wall. I had a half dozen egg mushroom, hams and cheese omelette. My wife had the chorizo egg tacos which were delicious also. Highly recommend this cafe!!

Delicious breakfast with great service! I had eggs, hasbrowns and toast combo. All were excellent. Be sure to try the Amish Friendship Bread.

I just recently heard about this place. It is a great hole-in-the-wall diner-like restaurant near Green Lake. They have all day breakfast and unlimited hash browns. For anyone looking for really good southern sausage gravy, look no further. Coming from a southerner, this is the best gravy I have found in Seattle. They have so many good menu items it was so hard to narrow it down to one thing! One dish our table ordered was the breakfast tacos. They used house made chorizo, which is delicious! We went on a Saturday at noon and there was no wait to get a table, but the restaurant was plenty full. They are also open at really late hours, so when you need a late night bite, Beth's is a great option.

The atmosphere was really nice, but maybe because it was a busy day and the restaurant seemed full, it took quite a while for someone to come over and take our order. We had the French onion soup, the vegetarian sandwich, and the lavender chamomile latte. To me, the latte just tasted like regular coffee with milk :/ I was hoping for a stronger lavender flavor but couldn’t really taste the chamomile or lavender. The sandwich was tasty, and I think it would’ve been great to have a bit more bread to go with the soup, as it was a little salty on its own. So here’s a tip if you’re planning to order the onion soup: ask for extra bread! The server who helped us was kind and attentive.

What a fun, airy space! Great for either a cafe experience (with friends or a laptop) or a nice meal. Particularly enjoyed the roasted veggie sandwich, and the non alcoholic wine mocktail from the “fancy hour” menu (4-6pm). Well then, WHY the three stars? That would be for the dishonest 5% added charge “for the business” and the incorrect tip calculation. The menu states there is a 5% charge on all food items due to rising costs—as one of my servers said in a chat with me, the owner doesn’t want to have a coffee drink listed for $12, because it seems like a lot. It does! But here’s the catch: THAT’S WHAT IT COSTS! And if you can’t justify your food or drink being worth what you charge for it, you need to rethink what you’re doing. To be clear: I would’ve paid the real amount if it had been listed up-front. As for the tip calculation, I get peeved when the tip suggestions are calculated including tax. Tax was not part of the meal—if I want to tip more than 20% on the meal, I will! Both of these are disrespectful of the people who want to visit. Future folks, please let me know if these are fixed and I’ll happily give a full five stars. **As a note: I had a lovely experience with Jason and another server (didn’t catch your name). I tipped them both the 20% on everything because they were very helpful—thank you!

I visited this place recently. It was a bit crowded when I arrived, but I was still able to find a table easily. The service was great, the staff was attentive and kind. The atmosphere was a bit noisy, probably because it’s popular with groups. I went alone to do some work on my laptop, and while it’s not the quietest environment, it’s still a decent spot for that. I ordered a latte and a salad. The salad was okay nothing special, but it did the job. I get the sense that this place is more focused on brunch and group gatherings. Overall, it was a nice experience, and I might give it another try sometime.

They modified the baked eggs! I'm terribly sad because these eggs were so good! They used to have tomato but they modified them completely. I hope they make them the same way they used to because it was the major reason I went there. Service was good, and the eggs Benedict were quite tasty, but I really hope they make the baked eggs as they did a few years ago with tomato

The food and restaurant was so so so nice! My partner and I got the spicy shakshouka, coffee and the cinnamon roll. Everything was amazing until our server came and took our plate without asking, when we had half our food still on our serving plate. She dropped off the check too. I was so confused I thought maybe my partner said we were leaving but he was confused too. I’ve never been to a restaurant where they drop off the check mid meal and then take your plate lol. We got the hint. We went (today) Friday around 11:10am, it was busy and they were able to seat us for brunch and as we were eating more and more people were leaving. I don’t know if they were closing soon, but we left at 11:45am. Other than that everything was great and our server was really nice too. It was just so damn weird??? Who does that?

Came here for lunch, I think their breakfast items are more popular here. I had fish and chips and a friend of mine had the Mac and Cheese. Not the best, but B-. It’s not bad though!

I came here a few days ago. The food declined a lot!!! Their fryer was broken so no fries. The steak is so small and expensive. I ordered the milk tea it was terrible. My sister and I came here over 10 years ago and had fond memories of how good the food used to be. Back then we had the hanger steak with fingerling potatoes. I would not recommend this restaurant. The food other people ordered nowadays looks equally sad.

I was staying at the Silvercloud Hotel and this restaurant is in the same building. I had dinner and a lunch here. If you are staying at the hotel you receive a free drink voucher. They had ample choices and a good variety of options to choose from. Some could be converted to V, and there were GF options. I have some dietary restrictions, and I was able to navigate just fine. The service team was friendly and attentive. Both meals arrived hot and were delicious.

As someone who’s written more reviews than I can count—ranging from fast food chains to mom-and-pop diners and even luxury restaurants with Michelin stars—I’ve learned to look beyond the plate and evaluate the entire experience. And when a place stands out, for better or worse, it’s worth writing about. The Good: The chicken noodle soup was, without a doubt, the highlight. The broth had depth, striking that balance between comforting and flavorful that only comes from someone who truly knows what they’re doing. The noodles were tender and well-cooked, and the shredded chicken was generous and satisfying. It wasn’t fancy, but it was honest. There was intention in that bowl—and that matters. The Bad: The fries. From the moment they hit the table, it was obvious something was wrong. Visibly burned, with the telltale smell of reused oil, and the first bite confirmed it: dry, hard, and bitter. This wasn’t a minor slip; it was a basic technical failure. I’ve had fries from humble food trucks that were executed with far more skill. Here, they completely missed the mark. The Ugly: When I returned the fries—not with anger, but with the reasonable expectation that the mistake would be corrected—the response was a laugh. Not the nervous kind or the courteous kind. A mocking laugh. Condescending. The kind of reaction that doesn’t belong in any kitchen, not even the most rustic. That moment, more than the food itself, was the bitterest taste of the night. Mistakes in the kitchen happen. Disrespect should never be on the menu. The Unforgivable: And here’s where the experience went from flawed to offensive: after returning the fries, they brought out another plate… equally burnt. Same issue, same attitude. No effort to fix the mistake, no gesture of goodwill. As someone who has tasted food from the streets of New York to the markets of Oaxaca, I can say this: the unforgivable thing is never the mistake—it’s the arrogant decision to repeat it knowingly. That second plate wasn’t just a culinary error. It was a statement of indifference. And that, in any kind of restaurant, is costly. ⸻ This review isn’t meant to tear down, but to call attention. Kitchens can improve. Service can grow. But for that to happen, there first needs to be a willingness to listen. And that night, unfortunately, the one ingredient most absent was humility.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I tucked into this cozy spot next to the fire and it was exactly what I needed—warm, quiet, and plenty of seating without a reservation. The atmosphere makes it feel like a hidden hideaway in Capitol Hill where you can actually have a private evening with good company. Let’s talk food: the herbed French fries (rosemary, garlic & sage) are absolutely slamming. Crispy outside, pillowy inside—hands down the star of the table. The adult grilled cheese with goat cheese & blackberry jam isn’t what you’d expect at first bite—it totally threw me off—but once I re-set my taste buds, I appreciated it as a refreshing twist. I’d try it again now that I know the vibe. Service was pleasant, not rushed, not overbearing—just the right balance. Overall, a great Capitol Hill hideaway for comfort food, good company, and a little warmth by the fire. #SeattleEats #CapitolHillSeattle #BroadwaySeattle #CapitolHillBites #GrilledCheeseGlowUp

The service was amazingggg. Vibe was good. My cocktails ( Jimmy’s cosmo) were good. Food can be improved. Didnt like the chicken.

The worst (supposed) Cobb salad I ever had! I couldn’t tell if it was a Caesar or a very pour Cobb. The dressing was already on it☹️, no blue cheese, no olives a sad piece of bacon a couple cherry tomatoes about 1/4 avocado and 1 egg for $20.00 you can add Chicken for another $10.00. And to top it off $22.00 for a double house whiskey during Happy Hour the waitress should have said something about how much it was going to be, and $10.00 for a side salad which looked better than the Cobb I ordered. The Chicken Pesto had way to much oil and very heavy on the pesto my husband could only eat a few bits. Our bill was over $100.00.

We went here for the Seattle Restaurant Week. We booked a reservation ahead of the time and arrived the restaurant couple minutes early. But the host did not show up for 5 or so minutes. We thought it was gonna be a long night but our server was really attentive and helpful. The food was surprisingly good despite it is in a hotel. We over order the food.. by a lot. The portion is a good amount. Ended up boxing more than half of our food. The server was very quick on boxing the and set them nicely in a bag. Overall an enjoyable experience. 😊

I’ve lived in Seattle for many years and have passed Jimmys on broadway countless times. I finally decided to stop in and check it out, the entrance is a bit hard to find from the street. The main draw is the big windows that look into the restaurant where you can see people enjoying their meal. I found the entrance and wondered around a bit to find the host stand. When I arrived there was a sign that said “sit wherever you like” the restaurant was pretty empty and there were 3 or 4 diners in the establishment. I decided to sit near the bar because that’s where the 3 staff members I did see were gathered. I was quickly greeted by the bartender Anaya, she was very pleasant and quickly brought me menus and asked if I would like a drink to start. I asked for just an ice water and she brought one from the bar. Anaya went over the menu and her recommendations, I had asked about a few items and she had tried most of what I asked about but let me know that there were some she herself had yet to try. I ended up ordering the “Jimmy’s Rueben”. The Ruben arrived pretty quickly and was served with a side of fries and 2 pickles. The portions were a bit small compared to other restaurants in the area, the Rueben was a bit slim and was more bread than meat. The meat was also overly tough. The fries were presented in a round bowl that made them seem plentiful but the shape of the bowl was cone like making all the fries kinda sit on top of the bowl. After finishing the Rueben and fries I was still hungry and browsed the menu further and decided to order the “clam chowder fries” the clam chowder fries were a hearty portion and beautifully presented. It was very flavorful and filling. If I did decide to try Jimmy’s again I would probably just order the clam chowder fries. The best thing about Jimmy’s is the staff. Anaya was very attentive and one of the other staff members Stephen was very funny. Overall I think Jimmy’s on broadway was overly demure yet could be more mindful about portions and presentation. The layout of the restaurant it’s self was not very well thought out in terms of drawing in customers outside of the hotel patrons and the bathrooms are inside the hotel so to use the bathroom you have to walk all the way through the hotel past the front desk area. It would be helpful to have a sign at the street entrance letting people know it’s “self seat” because of the layout the bartender can’t see patrons walking in.

They should put this place next to the word eclectic in the dictionary! The food options spam the world and your taste buds will most likely be taken on a royal procession. The fries were exceptionally crisp and smothered in tangy sauce with sambal to dip into. I have never had such decadent fries at a brunch spot. I got the Korean noodle dish and it is served cold. The candied lotus roots were a delight to crunch into. The shakshuka was good, but a little too much on the tangy side for me. Vegetarians have a few options here but meat eaters will have a field day.

All servers were nice and all food was really good! I wasn’t expecting it to be as good from the names or the pictures I saw online but they are all worth the try! The price is definitely on the high end so up to your discretion

The food here is unforgettable—bold flavors that feel like eating at your grandma’s house with all your cousins gathered around the table. The ribs were tender and rich, and the Ethiopian injera platter was tangy, playful, and perfect for sharing. Every dish carries a soulfulness that keeps me coming back. I truly wanted to give a five-star review, but I ran into a problem with the sangria. If you’re going to charge for a carafe, please give your guests the true value—not a carafe full of ice. On my last visit, it arrived so packed with ice that it only poured three glasses, compared to the generous carafe I enjoyed before. When I raised this, the server initially dismissed me in a way that made me feel like my integrity was being doubted, which was disappointing. To his credit, he did backtrack and apologize after I said I would just write a review. Still, if the carafe can’t consistently deliver value, it should be removed from the menu rather than charging guests the same as individual drinks. BTW-that is a picture of the first carafe from the week prior. My phone died before taking a picture of the iced carafe. That said, I still love this place. The flavors are powerful, comforting, and full of heart. When the service rises to match the excellence of the food, this restaurant shines as one of the best dining experiences anywhere.

We enjoyed the fried chicken wings tower! The brussel sprouts were nicely crispy and good with sauce. The pineapple cornbread was sadly really salty. We came on a holiday Sunday and there was only one chef working. Had to wait a lonnng time for any food. Will be back to try their chicken wings happy hour!

The war fries. That's all I have to say. SO GOOD. We also got the bunny stew (not actually rabbit), which was pretty good, but the war fries were the best. The drinks were really spendy and not super special for the price. All in all, I would definitely go back. There were tons of interesting options!

Novelty seekers come hither! We ordered six dishes and ate something from every corner of the world. Bold concept and the execution is great! The perfect dinner for someone itching to travel.

Michelle was FANTASTIC!!! She gave us fabulous recommendations on the menu, being Very conscious of my husband's allergies, and the food was INSANELY DELICIOUS!!! ***Shout out to the chefs!!!*** The chicken wings, as advertised through other reviews, Brought It!!!🤤🤤🤤 The Laphet Thoke Salad was fresh, crunchy, and savory!!! My Husband Loved his "French tacos" (not exactly either word) but super tasty!!! He had the "Espresso Martinez" and I had the Ay Chihuahua cocktail!!!💕💕💕 The atmosphere has this unusual homey vibe, and the Service was Very efficient!!!😊😊😊 Thanks everyone at Nue!!! T'was the perfect Brunch!!! I suggest if your service was fantastic, tip 25% or more, they Deserve it!!!

Late night dinner, came here after clubbing. Four of us, $100, I just ordered a basket of fries, for $8. Two combo French toast combo, breakfast combo, and milk shake. My fries was good but could be more for $8. Everyone else ate all their foods. 20% surcharge, I don’t remember being told about it. Service was good, friendly staffs. we parked at the structure. One bathroom that can take eternity.

Lost Lake is a return to the old Capitol Hill. It feels like a look back. It’s got a good vibe. The food is really good if not great. Assuming you like comfort food. Their mash potatoes and gravy would make your grandmother weep with joy. They serve beer. They make strong drinks. A trip to Seattle must include Lost Lake. Try it!

I advise to avoid here unless you care to experience mediocrity in every regard. Food tastes as though it’s been fried in dirty oil that hasn’t been replaced in three weeks. Service is not great. Expect a 5% fee added on your bill. Fine print does not mention it will go to the working staff, rather it goes to “Lost Lake” or the “restaurant” which sounds rather greedy. If you want poorly prepared, muddled fry oil meals for a high price here it is.

I love the vibes of the restaurant but it was highkey so weird that they put my overeasy eggs on my pancakes. Yes, I should’ve asked for it on a separate plate but I never had that problem before. Food was alright overall. I think it’s required to be passive aggressive & have an attitude to work here though.

The food here is very average diner food but with a very high price. I had mistakenly ordered a milkshake without checking the price and when I had seen the amount I was shocked, $11 for an average milkshake?!!!!!! I will give then points because their mushroom scrambled had real caramelized onions, although the mushrooms themselves could have been cooked more. The toast could use more butter. The hash browns very very yummy and crispy. The french toast was very average. The cheese curds are the only reason I would come back, the were like these hot greasy cheesy gushers of amazingness combined with the honey packet…SO AMAZING. There definitely could have been more for the price but it was still very good. The service was mixed, one of the waiters was very kind but the other understandably considering we went on a Friday at 11pm was very grumpy. We had no silverware or napkins at our table and when asked for some they responded like it was such a burden. Not really a big deal, it was late and busy after a long day but $100 for two people at a diner should have kinder service.

Great American style food with quality ingredients and careful preparation. Excellent service as well. Not cheap, but worth it.

Too many surcharges and hidden charges to warrant coming back here. The food is fine nothing special, service is average with the waiter missing items in our order. All this would be fine and a place that I would come back to if it wasn’t for the hidden surcharges they have on everything. They have happy hour pricing but when you get the bill if you didn’t order a specific way or say a specific thing you get normal pricing. It’s deceptive, predatory, and not worth my support going forward. I really want to like this place, but their own shady practices have made them lose a customer who has been there multiple times.

Great friendly service for a solo diner, loads of menu options, and really good value for such a large portion! Place was clean and peaceful. Clean toilets, too.

Honestly this might be a 5 star place. The breakfast is basic IHOP stuff, but the location is very clean, the service is amazing, everyone is friendly. I also like that IHOP has some healthier options now, in terms of whole grain protein pancakes, healthier syrups which aren't as sweet as they used to be, while still maintaining their price point. I wish there were vegan egg options using tofu or something else.

I’ve been coming to this location for years. I’m leaving my review here because their feedback site is garbage. Ordinarily I love this spot, but the quality dropped very suddenly today. The food came out tasting terrible. The server tried to tell me the pancake combo didn’t exist and charged me for the breakfast sampler. The server also tried to serve me regular soda and not diet like I’d asked. I have a health condition that prevents me from enjoying regular soda, so the servers really ought to be more mindful. I don’t think I’ll ever be back. Seemed like I wasn’t the only unhappy customer today.

The wait here is ridiculous inside and for pickup. I placed a curbside order with this exact location. I pressed on the link when I arrived. I called the woman asked me to come in regardless of it being pick up I requested it be brought to my car which is what curbside is as I was not prepared. She said she would look to see if anyone was able to do so. I wait another 5 minutes to not get anyone to come out. I called again Woman lies and says my order is for pick up not curbside She refuses to bring it out. If they weren’t gonna bring it out a call back would have been nice Instead of having me sit waiting for no reason. I’ve been to This location, millions of times Unfortunately, they always lack in service As well as food

My go to is the $7 (omelette + pancake) meal which they hide on the menu in the app/website but is still available at the location. Vegetarians can specify no meat (but they dont do no meat replacements). The location can be crowded during morning hours.

We usually visit this place late night for dessert. Never disappoints. The staff here are really nice and polite. For the amount of crowd this place attracts even past midnight, the service is pretty quick!

Strong 4/5 is fair for this place. Food was somewhere good, somewhere bad, really depends on what are you ordering. Chicken, hash brown, eggs, fruits and coffee were pretty good but biscuits and French toasts were close to ruin the whole dish. Service lady was quick and attentive so I can recommend this place for fast breakfast even once they are full of people and busy.

My colleague suggested this place as she saw it was a New Mexico Mexican Cafe (which is rare to find in Seattle)! As we walked in, the atmosphere was calm, and the service was splendid! The owner greeted us and took our order! We sat outside as it was a beautiful day. I ordered the breakfast burrito with sausage, and my colleague ordered Torta Sandwich with a house salad. The food and drinks came out quickly and were beautifully presented. My burrito was warm and saucy! Unfortunately, the sausage I ordered was not in the burrito, but once I asked again, they provided it on the side. My colleague said her sandwich was great, and the dressing on the salad had a nice citrus flavor. I loved how the cafe had a variety of foods, coffee drinks, alcohol drinks, and pastries! Great suggestion, and I would definitely go again! (4 out of 5 for that missed sausage, but they fixed it right away)! Food and drinks were more pricey than I would have liked, but still a nice stop once in a while.

Stopped here for an early meal before our Whale Watching Tour. The Vegan Mac & Cheese was amazing.. so much flavor! This was probably my favorite meal of our trip to the Pacific Northwest.

🔥🌮 Bang Bang in Othello — A Hidden Spot with Room to Rise I love supporting new local businesses hidden in our communities, and I was excited to try Bang Bang in Othello after a friend’s recommendation. The space itself is comfortable, warm, and inviting, with a full bar that makes it feel like a true neighborhood hangout. The highlight of my visit was the tequila experience—smooth, memorable, and introduced with genuine excitement. That moment showed me the spark of what this place can be when passion and presentation come together. What I hope for is that the same level of excitement is carried throughout the entire dining experience. The servers have the power to guide guests with joy and confidence, turning a meal into something unforgettable. While I left a little unsure about the menu, I also left believing in the potential. I truly hope Bang Bang will fire into a destination—because our city needs more local fun, more hidden gems, and more places that light up the soul. I’ll be back, ready to experience the next level.

My husband and I went here for breakfast yesterday morning for the first time. The place itself is super cute and the staff was friendly. My husband had a breakfast burrito and I had the posole and the focaccia breakfast sandwich. Everything was good, but OMG, the breakfast sandwich was one of the best breakfast sandwiches I've ever had and it'll be living rent-free in my head from now on. We don't live here, but Bang Bang will be a must-visit on future Seattle trips. Also, the pop tart was delicious- get one!

Wow, is all I can say. The avacado turkey sandwich was so tasty. Wow, the vinaigrette salad dressing was to die for. Cowboy breakfast was so good. A mix of flavors thar went well together. The iced latte with oat milk and sugar-free vanilla was so good I was very impressed and drank it all.

Before today I had only had their Moon Milk which was comforting enough to come back for another! This time I also had their chilaquiles quiche and side salad. So delicious and reminded me of comfort food back in AZ🌵. Though this was perfectly filling without being heavy and putting you into a food coma after breakfast. 🫶🏼😆 I’ll definitely be back for the baked goods.😍 And added note: Everyone was so kind, personable and patient this morning which says so much about the already welcoming atmosphere. It’s spaces like this that give me hope, everyone carries so much from all walks of life but that’s no reason to stop sharing stories that remind us why we get up in the morning. You never know who you might impact or how.💕 P.s. Their to go packaging is compostable. ☺️

It’s a vegan paradise! There are so many options and I loved that they use Just Egg in place of egg in many of the breakfast dishes. Chocolate cake was super good as well.

I really wanted to love this place but our experience here wouldn’t let us. The staff were friendly and it felt like a cozy, family owned restaurant. I will note that we went on Saturday during prime brunch time, so they were busy. The food generally looked really good too. HOWEVER, our food was served cold/room temp (at best). Moreover, we had a long wait between standard events (sit down, taking our order, getting the food, getting the check, and paying). It looked like there were not enough staff for the restaurant. Moreover, it also didn’t look like tasks were being delegated appropriately. It might seem like I’m focusing on small events, but there were many things like this that all added up to a generally chaotic and disorganized environment. Also, the food was overpriced. Yes, this is Seattle (and almost everything here is overpriced). But this place was DEFINITELY over priced. I ordered a waffle (which was a good size but not that big) with two eggs and four sausage links. Total for that was $23 (before tax/tip). Overall, the experience was disorganized/chaotic with food served cold, and prices that were too high.

This place is awesome! Gives such a cozy family style restaurant feel. Prices are incredibly reasonable for how much food you get. Mexican breakfast was so good! Parking was very easy and the service was excellent.

I’ve lived in Seattle for 8 years and my one consistent joys has been breakfast at Pete’s Eggnest in Greenwood. Great food, and the team here just make you feel at home every time. It’s like breakfast with friends, even when you are on your own!

Pete's Eggnest is a regular and usually great spot for us. However, my latest visit was a letdown due to the service. When ordering scrambled eggs with ham (no cheese) for my friend, the waitress's tone felt condescending. We also experienced slow service, even though it wasn't a busy day, and an uncomfortable stare when leaving a tip. This was a disappointing experience compared to our usual positive visits.

The ownership may have changed but the quality of food and friendliness has not. Fabulous breakfast... Best Chicken Fried Steak I've had in awhile with excellent potatoes. The coffee is top notch and overflowing. And I appreciate the kind staff who are quick to boot. The only tricky part is parking, but Pete's is with the trouble.

Food was great. When we arrived, there were a few small parties ahead of us. They prepared for a large party that arrived after us, before we were seated (not great). We got the breakfast burrito, Swedish pancakes, and a special (Elvis pancakes)—all were delicious. We got coffee, strawberry lemonade, and chai latte (special). The chai was literally a glass of milk with a splash of chai—we asked for more chai and had to mix the drink ourselves.

Loved our brunch here. We got the Mexican breakfast and farmers scramble- both were tasty and great value. Homemade biscuits are a must. Restaurant was cozy and the service was so friendly.

Delicious food, great menu, wonderfully strong coffee, love the jam, very friendly staff. My newly discovered favorite place for brunch.

Returned to Seattle - ate here in 2016, & again today!!! The food was exquisite. This BRUNCH is on fire. The right amount of FRESH food. Farm to table ingredients! This was such a gift experience for breakfast. 100% one of the best brunches I’ve had on tour! Real maple syrup!! Chicken sausage / poached eggs!

Stopped in here for brunch while visiting the Capitol Hill neighborhood and was extremely satisfied with the savoryness of our food choices. I had the special: bacon, avocado and pepper jack omelette and it was seriously so delicious. My partner had the egg and arugala sandwich and it was also pretty tasty. But the jam OMG, the jam. Best ever. And the bloody Mary also hit the spot, with a tasty pickled carrot. A 100% satisfying brunch! I thought it was kind of funny: the music they were playing in the background, every-single-song was about whiskey or had the word whiskey in it. I was laughing, but could not convince my partner to do whiskey shots at breakfast.

Years ago I remember this place being awesome but that is not the case anymore. I can't comment on the food because we did not stay to find out. The glass I got for a Mimosa was crusted on the outside and coated in crumbly white powder. When I raised this to.the host they tried to gaslight me into believing it was part of the drink and offered no apology. We cancelled our order, left, and will not return.

It was a busy Farmers Market out front (big plus) Sunday on Capitol Hill and we got seated immediately for brunch @1:30. Service was attentive, pleasant and fast. The hot chocolate was the best I’ve ever had - rich, flavorful and a nice hint of cinnamon. The french toast also 10/10 made with rustic bread and generously topped with what tasted like a compote of fresh picked blueberries, raspberries etc. Asked for a side of scrambled eggs also way above average. Recommend and will return. Thank you, Americana!

First time eating at this place.. something different for me. I will definitely eat here again if I'm around the area.. French toast wasn't my favorite they too crunchy and dry. The blueberry pancakes 🥞 were very good 👍 a little over price. Didn't expect to pay over $100 for just two people.

TL;DR The food was decent enough, just not worth a special trip. We ordered the Americana Benedict, french toast and the east coast. First, the eggs of the benedict were over cooked (not runny)…this diminished the overall enjoyment of the dish, but the other parts (specifically the sauce) was unique and flavorful. Next, the French toast was well cooked, however the fruit compote at over ripened (mushy) - so if you like fruit sauce this is good, but if you want fruit pieces, then pass on this dish. Lastly was the East Coast. It delivered as promised. The capers were salty, which in conjunction with the salmon hit all of the flavor notes. Just be aware that dish is big/dense… so if you’re wanting something lighter this could become a shareable dish.

Got a yummy matcha from here today, great green colour and earthy tasting! I knew I was in the right spot because of all the fun coloured hair in the building. We waited a little bit to order but once we ordered the drinks came out quickly. Definitely recommend if you’re in the area

First time here. The cashier was very sweet and helpful. She recommended iced tangerine caramel latte and the iced blackberry caramel latte. Both very delicious. The shop was quaint but a bit small. We sat outside which was perfect because it was beautiful weather.

Yummy coffee and great staff. I got an iced blueberry latte with oat milk, which was delicious. I also got a plant based sausage egg sandwich, which I was excited and surprised to see! The vegan breakfast sandwich was really good. I would definitely get it again.

My wife was really excited about coming here. Came on a Sunday morning around 930. Line was wrapped around the inside. I think there was some type of convention so it was busy. The line moved very fast though. The workers were so nice and seemed happy even tough it was crazy. We both got a hot coffee ; I got a matcha latte and added vanilla syrup which was good. We also got a pastry and a sandwich and they heat it up for you. Very good. There was seating inside and some outside. There is a restroom as well.

Excellent matcha. Tried both their strawberry and blueberry matcha. The service is good too!

Only 2 sips into my drink but it’s so good I had to write a review. The iced strawberry matcha is perhaps one of the greatest liquid drinks I’ve ever tasted. Place has a chill upscale laid back vibe. Only in Seattle for the day but I came to the right place.

Lovely place. The baristas are super nice & coffee tastes good every single time! Truly enjoyed every cup I had here!

A small quaint cafe near the light rail, so it's in a pretty convenient spot. It was busy when I came in the morning but it didn't take long to get my order. My girlfriend and I went with the breakfast croissant and it was pretty damn good. I got ham and she got turkey. We also ordered a chai tea latte and a Mexican mocha. Both were strong and great. I definitely recommend coming here ☺️.

With some time to kill in the U District, a friend and I are in search of coffee. I see the 4.6 rating of Ugly Mug Cafe, hundreds of reviews, and say this has gotta be the place. And let me tell you, when approaching the outside of the building, my heart sank a bit. It’s just as bland as the name implies. But the inside is another story—it’s homey, comforting, bright. I got the blackberry something latte on the special menu and it was unlike anything I’ve had before. My friend got a breakfast sandwich which was large enough to be worth the price, a rare sight in this city. Overall, I absolutely recommend. It lives up to its good reviews. 2024 update: Still love this cafe. When looking for coffee in the U-District, this is my go-to.

Cozy, cute vibe. Lox bagel and turkey sandwich were awesome. Also, had a lavender chai tea latte and iced matcha which were both great. We've been twice this week and will probably go at least once more lol Love the location close to campus and the light rail.

Perfect coffee place with shared outdoor seating place by the street. We have iced matcha and coffee latte, both very tasty. The spinach and cheese pastry is also yummy.

Nice little cafe with cozy seating and a couple of decorative ugly mugs. Went in for a quick bite and coffee. I took the drip and the days highlight was some Honduras coffee. Pretty nice. My wife got the machiato which was good as well and they gave some sparkling water on the side with it. She also got a smoked salmon bagel which was nice and filling. The place looked very busy with some nice merchandise.

A little hard to find, but well worth it! I got the butterscotch latte and egg croissant sandwich with avocado and my husband got the salmon lox bagel sandwich. I had to savor my latte wishing I got the bigger size because it was so tasty, and the croissant had a wonderful sauce or aioli on it that was so good!

Great tasting coffee. Not recommended for families since this is a small cafe with limited seatings. Also not accessible friendly, there are a few step to get here. Prices are good, staff are friendly. No parking nearby. This mostly services the university next door.

Nice place with great service. We tried the pancakes with eggs and bacon and the chicken fried steak. This was the biggest chicken fried steak I have had in that price range. This tasted pretty good as well and would definitely come back for this. The pancakes were pretty good and fluffy as well. In general they have huge portion sizes, the coffee cup in itself was pretty big, more the size of a soup bowl which may not be the best thing to serve coffee in. Overall a great place and definitely worth the visit.

A Saturday morning out with family. We were looking for a diner. North Star was on our list to try. Parking was a little challenging - worked out. Out wait was short. Restaurant is a big room. Still, it was comfortable. There are booths and tables. It was busy and loud. Menu was wonderful with breakfast and lunch options. Food quality was great. Service was fine. And, prices were OK. I'd come back to the North Star.

This unique diner offers a delightful atmosphere and aesthetic. The friendly staff and delicious mimosas make it worth the visit. The Caprese omelette was filling and delicious, while the chicken fried steak was large but well-done. The fresh daily biscuits were excellent. The coffee came in a large soup mug, and the Irish coffee was good. The booths are fixed in place, so it’s not ideal for larger bodies. We recommend it and will return, though my partner might skip the chicken fried steak. I’ll definitely get the Caprese omelette again.

I got the Big Dipper with the French toast and it was banging! I would even say that the Big Dipper could feed two people. Definitely recommend. Our waiter was exceptional—super attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu. I loved the whole space theme. I was just browsing the astronaut wall while I waited for my food. You can pay to park behind the building or just find street parking.

Server: Grandpa Pants Thank you for being a great waitress. I think that was the best service I have ever had when it comes to waitressing. The food did not only taste very good but the portion sizes were huge. I enjoyed this place very much! I also liked how you guys had anime playing on one tv and sonic the hedgehog on the other tv. Unlike most places just play the news or the weather. If we ever come back to Seattle we will try this place out again.

Good food, i got the french toast combo and my friend got the pancake combo and both were delicious. The drinks were also really good. Big portions and good prices. Only reason Is a 4 star is because the music was really loud for a diner setting and it gave me a really bad headache

Oh man, I love this place. From the food to the atmosphere to the service, everything is amazing. It was recommended a few years back by a friend who used to live nearby. Glad we finally went. Heh one person at our table got the chicken fried steak. Woah! That was the biggest CFS I have seen in a while. It has one of the best country style gravies ever.

Staff was friendly and seemed genuinely eager to answer questions. The coffee was beyond expectation. A full arsenal of flavors. The sandwich was outstanding. The crust on the bread was crunchy, the bread soft and warm with a delicate toasting to it. The bacon was thick and meaty. The eggs perfectly cooked into a pillow. My only regret was finding this place on my last day in Seattle.

I cannot believe I just paid $26 for a good coffee, great fresh cookie and a dry flavorless chewy tofu (not in a good way) salad. And, as is the trend these days, the system starts at 20% tip for counter service. He literally pointed me at a self serve rack. Will def return for coffee, as a food venue it’s disappointing at 11am on a Tuesday. Maybe other food is better but the premade weak cabbage salad was super overpriced - was expecting a properly tossed and freshly plated salad at that price point.

For some reason at 4pm they had no coffee of any kind and a “popup” menu. I ordered a mushroom grilled sandwich and it took about 20 min to arrive. Bread was a little burned and the meal was mediocre. I am not sure if it comes with cheese but I couldn’t detect any. Still likely a good spot for coffee based on reviews but it seems they don’t serve coffee all day?

Fantastic Stuff, fabulous interior and atmosphere and of course good, strong coffee! Highly recommend! Also, if you’re a first time visitor you’ll have a porcelain mug as a gift ❤️this is so sweet❤️

That Focaccia though. Amazing Sandwiches. Gave me a refill on my iced tea. The vibes are good but for some reason the place feels a bit sterile. More color, plants, and art would help. Overall though I will definitely be back! Thanks for the lunch 💜

The shop has a nice atmosphere and a very clean, modern aesthetic. The americano I had was quite good. I also enjoyed the service from the Brazilian barista. She was quite friendly and easygoing. I thought the bacon on the chicken club was delectable. I am knocking two stars off due to price and portion. I realize restaurants are struggling due to inflation, but $17 for a small sandwich with a very wimpy slice of tomato and five pieces of lettuce seemed just ridiculous.

Smell is amazing, great options, food tastes amazing.. Because everything is cooked to order it took over 15 minutes for a breakfast sandwich.. well worth the wait, but make sure you are not in a rush.. one star deducted for the wait. also good selection of coffee and adult beverages.. sign up for their frequent customer program and save some $../

The vibe was off when I walked in the door to what feels like an old diner with 2024 prices. The two line situation (one for here and one to go) was convoluted, the service was quick and friendly but the food is pricy for what you receive. I ordered an everything bagel with lox schmear and received a salt bagel with lox schmear. When I let them know they made me my correct order immediately, however, my bagel wasn’t toasted. It was good I suppose but nothing remarkable. The everything seasoning was slightly muted. My kids enjoyed their plain bagels. I wish them the best of luck, there were enough people coming and going that I know they will survive. A couple a tweaks and they could be thriving.

Customer was amazing, very nice staff. only complaints was the food and the pricing. one bagel (bagel, tomato, pepper), was $15, and not the best flavor overall. The meal overall felt sad, and lifeless. The meal felt like a sad summer camp meal, but with the pricing of a fancy dinner.

I have high bagel standards growing up with NY bagels, but Bagel Oasis gets a 8/10 for me! I went for the sourdough bagel, which was the only bagel in the case that seemed to be the right amount of fluffy. I tried an everything bagel to see if there was a difference, and it was way more dense and crunchy than I want in a bagel. The sourdough bagel was near perfect - had a crunchy bite, but fluffy interior and delicious flavored cream cheese. It was satisfying and I wasn't disappointed. I'd recommend the sourdough bagel over the other types though. Will definitely be back to have it again!

Got a salt bagel with lox schmear. The bagel, perfect untoasted. The schmear tasted like it had once heard of lox. About as flavorful as a lacroix. If you're going to charge me three bucks for Shamir make it good. I also got a cup of coffee. The coffee was fine but the cup and lid didn't actually seal so it just leaked hot coffee all over my hand and car. If I'm in the neighborhood I might come back and get just plain bagels for takeout, because everything else they offer is deeply mid while the bagels are great

Pleasant, bright interior in 1930s Ravenna neighborhood business district a mile north of University of Washington campus. Attentive, friendly counter staff. Flavorful bagels, but lox schmear didn’t have much flavor of the mix-in (garlic/dill was better) and cream cheese in both seemed like it was from the Kraft Philadelphia box. Perhaps true of many shops, but these days there are also plenty with homemade cream cheese, a step up. Chocolate malt iced latte innovative and tasty. Veggie pesto omelette was flavorful with plenty of broccoli, peppers, and other fill. All in all a decent spot, and would hit it again if in the neighborhood and hungry, but not as a destination bite.

I've been going to bagel oasis for the past two years and have loved it ever since I set foot in it. If you're looking for an authentic NY bagel experience in Seattle this is the place to go! Getting a dozen and a tub or two of cream cheese is a must. Love getting a flavored schmear and taking to the park nearby too!!

I love bagels from bagel oasis! I also love to buy their flavored cream cheese for use at home. Their food is tasty and delicious, but dining in leaves something to be desired. The space is mostly empty and when ordering in you still receive your food on a paper plate in a plastic container with the side and pickle individually wrapped- I was disappointed in the amount of waste generated from eating in. This space is better suited for a quick drop-in (ordering to-go).

Mind blowing baked goods (danish was to die for), good sandwiches (we had a Fried Egg sandwich with extra sausage and mushrooms, and it was good but not great - lacked flavor and sauce, buns were awesome though). Coffee (latte on almond milk) was good (they use Proud Mary beans) - 8/10, matcha was good too 7/10. Lots of seating available. Line is a bit long but moves fast.

We’ve been wanting to come for a while, so impressed with the quality, vibe, and service considering the place. It’s in an old, I assume, boat house. Two outdoor areas to eat, one with water view. Looks like behind they have an event space too. I had their signature brown sugar toast and a pastry. Both delicious. Highly recommend but get there early, it does sell out and the lines can be long. Pet and kid friendly .

So yummy! I had their avocado toast with a fried egg added, a cardamom bun and black coffee. The bread for the avocado toast was very thick and a very nice grainy, nutty flavor to it. The lemon and za’atar seasoning on the avocado added the perfect flavor to it. The cardamom bun was so yummy, this is great if you want something a little sweet but not too sweet. The coffee was perfect- I typically only add cream and sugar to coffee if the flavor is mediocre, but this coffee was already so good that I didn’t need to add anything to it. I definitely want to come back and try more things on their menu.

A nice spot to relax after walking from UW. I ordered the cheeseburger with a fried egg. The meat was juicy and every bite was satisfying. The staff were friendly and the service was great. Semi-outdoor seating adds to the chill vibe.

This place practically has a cult following. The only time there isn’t a line out the door is when they are closed! The menu is globally inspired- definitely with an Asian lean. I had the breakfast sandwich on melon pan with bacon. The extras kind of add up, but… it was delicious. I’m glad to see they have expanded their gluten free offerings. When I went there years ago, there wasn’t much my gf mother could have.

So good!!! Amazing bakery and great location with outdoor seating. Expect long lines on the weekends but so worth it, their coffee is Proud Mary, an amazing roaster from Portland. Recommend the avocado toast and melonpans

Came in on a Saturday and although there were a few groups ahead of me, it only took a few minutes to get my order in. Even though it was busy, Kimberly was really helpful/friendly when I asked for recommendations. I ordered several things and all were 10/10. My favorite was the Danish Dream Cake. Took it back to my office and ate it embarrassingly fast 😮‍💨

Perfect location for brunch on a Sunday! My colleague and I stopped here as we had heard good reviews about this Filipino cafe! It did not disappoint! I tried their Ube Ice Latte, and it was the perfect blend of sweetness and expresso! I would highly recommend this drink! For brunch, I ordered the Pork Menudo (which is a tomato based pork dish with a side of rice). It was my first time trying it, and it was decent. The tomato taste was strong, which was not something I was used to. My colleague ordered the Longsilog, which was different from the normal sausage Longsilog he was used to. Service was amazing, and they were quick. The waitress accidentally spilled a bit of my latte but cleaned it up right away. I'd recommend anyone trying out this cafe if they want to try a Filipino cafe!

This place is awesome. I rolled in a little after opening on a Thursday and it was pretty quiet. I ordered at the kiosk, grabbed a number, and sat at a table with a convenient outlet for my laptop charger. I easily connected to their free Wi-Fi (which is apparently not available on weekends — be warned). I started with a chicken arroz caldo with crispy chicken skin and a poached egg plus a pandan Italian soda. The arroz caldo is fantastic! Warm, hearty, and texturally interesting, it's comfort in a bowl. The add-ons are non-negotiable, in my opinion. The pandan Italian soda is also tasty and unique, though a coffee lover would probably just prefer a pandan latte. I enjoyed my food and sipped on my drink for a couple hours while I got some work done. The cafe picked up a little as the morning went on but it stayed relatively quiet and pleasant. Around lunchtime, I ordered a longsilog (basically a breakfast plate with Filipino pork sausage patties). I also added a mung bean patty to give it a try. When it arrived, I topped it off with some chili crisp and went to town. Wow! Explosion of flavor. The pork sausage is unbelievably juicy and tender. It's perfect with some runny egg yolk and a bit of rice. The greens and pickled veggies add a nice crunch and kick of acidity. The mung bean patty is a little less exciting — a bit dry and without a ton of flavor. But if you're not a meat eater, it's a decent alternative! I finished my meal and then ordered an assortment of pastries to go. They have a huge variety of unique flavor combinations! Several of them are classic Filipino sweets that you'd be hard pressed to find elsewhere in Seattle, so it was really cool to try them. The cheesecake is one of their specialities, so I got several varieties to try. Pro tip: you should really enjoy these cold. Once they warm up to room temperature, their flavors dull significantly. My favorites are the Vietnamese coffee and white chocolate guava, but the ube is also rich and unique. A few other standouts for me are the turon cream puff, the black sesame roll, the mango peach empanada, the bibingka corn muffin, and the beef mechado pocket. If you're a fan of less sweet desserts, you'll probably really enjoy the ube pianono cake slice, the cassava cake, and the biko. Overall, I can't recommend this place highly enough. The hot dine-in foods, hot or iced drinks, savory pastries, and sweet desserts are all flawlessly prepared in their own ways.

Super cute Filipino coffee shop with unique drinks (iced matcha with lilikoi), ube latte. Their mini cheesecakes were delicious with fun flavors like POG and white chocolate guava. I wasn’t the biggest fan of the lilikoi matcha…the flavors just weren’t my favorite. But everything else was good. They have a cute store with various Filipino goodies like chocolate, children’s books and soap.

I love this cafe! It’s very cute inside and the food, dessert and drinks were very good! The ube drink has enough sweetness and ube flavour as most I’ve had from other cafes lack ube flavour. We came back three times during our trip! I also appreciate that they had the syrups for sale which are great for those who live far away. By some chance I visit Seattle again, I would definitely come back.

While visiting Chinatown, we came across this wonderful Cafe that served Filipino cuisine. There was a line, but it moved along pretty quickly. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable about their food. We ordered several items so that we could sample each other's dishes as well as a few of their signature drinks. They do have a dine in area, but also noticed that you can get your food to go. Highly recommended, go check them out! Salamat!

Quick stop before taking Amtrak out of town. I was impressed by the tranquil, unhurried, yet friendly, efficient service. This place has a wide variety of items with a separate food area from drinks. There is also a cultural selection of gift items, photos of the history. Seating inside was comfortable and arranged for small groups. There was far too much on the menu to sample in one trip. Please consider this for a peaceful cultural break. Delicious!

I loved the vibe of this cafe. Lakan, the sous chef is so welcoming and kind. The waitress was too, very smiling. I've tried my first Biko there and I loved it. They make ube and Pandan latte too. My two favorite flavours 😋

Cute cafe with lots of seating, old school like they used to have with lots of tables, a bar for people watching and a nice patio. Black and white photos of middle eastern movie stars on the wall, a stack of board games, and gorgeous pastries in the cold case. Mocha was not too sweet, and the bacon, Swiss and frittata sandwich with avocado on a cheddar chive scone was one of the best breakfast sandwiches I've had in a while: lots of fresh avocado and a delicious chipotle sauce.

Amazing find in Ballard for a breakfast or lunch stop! Menu ranges from sweet - waffles - to savory - also waffles, and sandwiches and plates. Lebanese menu includes some incredible options that aren’t standard cafe fare - eggs qawarama for example is worth six stars if I was able! Get some Lebanese coffee and then take some of the baked goods to go. This place is delicious and the service is amazing - friendly!

Best breakfast secret in Ballard. The eggs & bacon combo is my go to. High protein (42 grams) and low carb for 10 bucks! The toast is made from homemade bread and toasted to perfection. Coffee is excellent, staff are friendly and welcoming, and it’s a nice unpretentious vibe.

Loved the food, drinks & vibes. Staff super friendly. Great prices Amazing sandwich - flavor, especially the bread & sauce with the filling. Hot mocha salted caramel with coconut milk hit the spot (like extra fancy hot chocolate). Baklava would take to go next time (eyes bigger than stomach- it's a huge slice). Can't wait to return & try more options. Tucked a little away from main street so not as busy.

Love the waffles. They were really fresh and delicious. And the quantity was not disappointing at all. Will definitely visit again for the waffles. Latte was good too

Salt and Sugar Cafe has been a favorite for years. Definitely miss living nearby. Finally made it back, and it's just as amazing as always. Friendly service, delicious food and drinks, cozy and well-lit space with lots of seating. Have tried waffles, sandwiches, and breakfast plates, and it has always been on point. Board games for those interested. You can't beat their prices, and they actually have options for tea drinkers. Highly recommend if you dine in that you pick up pastries to go like the baklava (which is perfect and not too sweet). I would choose this cafe over other more well-known places for breakfast/brunch any day.

Everything I’ve eaten here has been incredible. They have a great brunch menu, the waffles are my favorite, homemade pastries and breads, and authentic Lebanese flavors. They make everything from scratch so quality and freshness are top-notch. I can’t emphasize enough how delicious the olive oil and labne are and how much I’ve come to appreciate their menu.

Tasty and unique. I had a matcha waffle with green tea ice cream. The waffle was pretty filling and the icecream was good quality. You can pick 3 toppings, and they have good options like mochi, fruity pebbles, and pocky. The whole thing is large and good for sharing. You will need to eat it there because it is too messy to walk with. The rose milk tea was very good with quality tapioca. Macarons are lacking and have a kind of weird chemical taste and the consistency is not quite right. Environment is relaxed and looks like a typical modern frozen yogurt shop or similar.

Small place with just a couple tables. Sunday afternoon and only one person working so had to wait a bit. Has signs for ice cream up but no ice cream available. Drinks were good and generous with toppings.

The best Bubble Tea in downtown for sure. Not the best Bubble Tea in Seattle though. Convenient location so I'll be back for sure. Bubble tea was a little heavy on the milk flavor, could use some stronger tea maybe. Tried a macaroon and I don't think I'll be buying anymore. Would rather go to Le Panier for a macaroon. We tried a bubble waffle wth ice cream. That was tasty.

Great place to get coffee, tea or other drinks. Very reasonably priced and friendly service. Their drinks container are cute.

The customer service was subpar, only two flavors of ice cream available. I’m not sure if that’s all the time or just right now. The bubble tea and waffle ice cream were both delicious. The macaroons were just ok although my son was so excited about them

I love this spot. The waffle cone is light, the ice cream savory and the toppings make for awesome texture. I like how the spot is between a tattoo parlor and a grungy bar making it for a lively little cafe in Belltown. I would recommend.

Went today, bubble waffle was yummy and the milk tea too! Though, the two girls working didn't really seem like they cared to be working. They were checking their phones a lot when people were walking in.

Overall pretty tasty food. I found the biscuit to be good, especially for a gluten free biscuit. The gravy was also good. And for ~$10 it was a decent breakfast option. Dining partner had the regular biscuit and gravy and preferred the gluten free mushroom gravy. Seating is outside and kind of difficult to find. You have to hover awkwardly. You have to show your id to get the food. If you need a quick snack while in the area I’d check it out, if you are looking to get breakfast and spend some time then I’d skip it.
