Good for anytime but we especially love brunch here. Intimate setting, great beers and wines, and the food is always locally sourced and full of flavor.

THE BEST tumeric latte (add some espresso to it) and the vegan oat bars will perfectly compliment a morning walk at Lincoln Park. If you're the luckiest person on earth, you may catch a glimpse of our fav local celebrity Eddie Vedder there.

If you haven’t been you should go...atleast to say you did :) Go on a Tuesday morning to avoid the crowds. Take the water taxi over and there’s a shuttle (route 773) that will take you from there.

旅行者建议

出行

The West Seattle bridge

The West Seattle bridge is under repair so going north is a little trickier than usual. I advise consulting Google maps before you depart in your car. You can always take the fast water taxi over then just scoot around downtown! A great way to experience the unique parts of Seattle.
携带物品

Always bring warm clothing, even in the summer!

It gets cold in the evenings almost year-round, especially if you’re not used to it. Always be prepared for weather, even if you've checked the weather!
实用短语

Mountain's out!

If you have a clear day, you're sure to see a glimpse of the mountains. If you catch Rainier in the distance, be sure to say, "Mountain's out!". You'll sound like a local.
出发前预订

Ferries to the San Juan islands

If you're departing from here to check out the San Juans, be especially sure to get reservations well in advance. The ferries book up fast and you won't want to show up without a reservation (unless you plan to walk on (no car)). It's worth the journey - the islands are unbelievably beautiful.
