This was my spot in Seattle. I loved being able to get a soup or pastry and enjoying the fireplace on cold damp days.
The ambience here is equally as welcoming. Clean and cozy eating area.
I would agree with the rest of the reviews, the staff seems to be poorly trained and confused on the menu. Even I have a hard time understanding the "pick 2" options. When I went it was empty, I got my food quickly. It seems that they are trying to figure things out still with the food delivery as the runners get confused easily.
I got the chipotle cheddar sandwich which was good. My main complaint was that for $13 it seems overpriced for a tiny sandwich and salad.
I'll come back for coffee and pastries but not the food. Slightly better, but overpriced paradise cafe.
