I stopped in to grab some coffee and possibly a breakfast sandwich and was quite impressed. The owner's were friendly when I walked in. I ordered the salmon breakfast with swiss cheese on croissant and a Americano very tasty sandwich and it was reasonably priced and the service was fast and efficient. There is seating outside, but very limited which I also enjoyed while eating my breakfast. I'll add them to my list of spots to eat. Totally recommend this place. #Airbnbguests read more

Cute, convenient and very quick cafe. Stopped by for breakfast. Latte's were delicious as was the Everything Croissant.

This is a review of lunch at Artisan Cafe. http://tinyurl.com/m84b238 Artisan is a quaint neighbourhood spot in Belltown.. It is small and cozy. It has a bit of a homelike feel. http://tinyurl.com/nvcxot3 The staff is very friendly. They feature sandwiches, Vietnamese sandwiches (Bánh mì), and salads. They also serve breakfast. Plus, they serve a selection of coffees. On our visit, the service was very quick. The restaurant wasn't very busy. I walk by here often. It doesn't seem to ever be overly crowded. Caprese Sandwich (Mozzarella, swiss cheese, fresh basil & plum tomatoes) - This was a nice panini style sandwich. The ingredients were fresh and the sandwich was well made. http://tinyurl.com/o34syux Pork Bánh mì - This was my brother's lunch. He enjoyed it. As he put it, for a sandwich shop it was a good Bánh mì. For a Vietnamese restaurant, it was an average Bánh mì. The ingredients were, once again, very fresh. The bun was close (but not exact) to the flaky baguette expected for Bánh mì. It was a tad closer to a normal sandwich roll. http://tinyurl.com/n935ygy Lunch for two was $18.07 Overall - This is a nice neighbourhood sandwich shop. If you are nearby and want a well prepared sandwich made with quality fresh ingredients, Artisan will do the trick. It isn't a destination spot though. read more

Cute little Belltown cafe with friendly owners and delicious coffee and food. I ordered their chai and it was tasty, a bit on the creamier side, but pretty good. I also love that they serve a wide variety of savory items like croissants, sandwiches, salads and Vietnamese baguettes! There's a large TV in the cafe too so that's good for watching games if you're not into the sports bar scene. The decor is cute, there's a huge painting of Paris and the cafe feels cozy and warm. read more

Oh my gosh, what a delicious discovery! Came in around noon on Saturday for lunch. It's a small interior but enough seating for ...12 about? Cute bistro table outside too. The food was absolutely delicious, five stars !!! I ordered a pork bahn mi (Vietnamese baguette, as on the menu), and a Vietnamese coffee . My food took about 4 minutes and the services was friendly. Took my food home, and scarfed my generous portioned sandwich down in less than 10 minutes - it was that good. I promise you that this spot will not disappoint . I will be back, surely !! read more

This family-run cafe has great ambience and super friendly service. I came here twice over the weekend for brunch and lunch. It was never too crowded and very fast service for 2 employees! Food: The first time I got the Croissant Breakfast Sandwich and Mocha. The second time I got the Grilled Pork Vietnamese Baguette and Vietnamese Iced Coffee. They were all very good! The Croissant Sandwich is pretty standard, but with great melty cheese action. The Mocha is what you expect. It's little more bitter and frothy than your typical Starbucks mocha, but delicious! The Baguette Sandwich was HUGE! It was mostly a lot of bread...maybe too much with the bread to filling to bread proportion skewed. The grilled pork inside was fantastic! It's super flavorful and grilled to perfection! The Vietnamese Coffee went great with the Baguette. The sweet bitter creaminess of the coffee balanced out the spice of the sandwich. He coffee is definitely on the stronger, more bitter side. Overall, I'd give the food a 3.5 but would definitely go back for the service and ambience. read more

Talk about humility. Nothing about this place or the people working in it makes it come across as impressive or high-end, but the food (at least the reuben I ordered) speaks for itself. Perfectly toasted bread, thick cuts of tender and flavorful pastrami, delicious whole grain mustard, and just the right amount of sauerkraut and melted Swiss cheese. Really hit the spot on a rainy/cloudy Seattle day. Considering this place is right around the corner from me I will definitely be back for more - the perfect casual neighborhood spot (FYI currently still takeout only). The espresso is nothing special but it did the job and the sandwich more than made up for it. read more

Service was friendly however the person making my drink took too long. Although, the drink tasted good. This cafe is a bit pricey. I do like they made it a point to know my name. Would recommend the pistachio latte. read more

Was on my way to Chihouly Glass Museum for 10am opening. Needed a quick breakfast on the run. Had the Everything croissant.. exceeded expectations and was light, flavorful, and very very fresh! Was also easy to eat while walking... carefully wrapped to make it easy to eat. Doesn't look like they are yet open for in-house dining, but are fabulous Togo! read more

Truly my favorite coffee place in all of Seattle, a must visit! The coffee tastes delicious and the husband and wife who run the cafe are the kindest and friendliest people you'll meet here. The pastries are divine and did I mention they the best latte in all of Seattle? read more

What a perfect stop for lunch. Artisan Cafe was a modest eatery, and it was everything we needed. This was such a fresh turkey and avocado sandwich! For a decent price we got this and a bag of chips - a simple, traditional lunch. The menu was full of delicious options. If I worked closely, I would come here all of the time. I'd definitely give it my recommendation, and I hope to be back! read more

Came from Texas and needed a coffee fix and man the vietnamese coffee was delicious! waited until 10am to get their vietnamese baguettes (banh mi) and got the combination version and was super super delicious! very crunchy, savory, the pate was so good! definitely recommend this place! read more

We stopped in for a quick bite while walking the city. The ladies behind the counter we're really nice and helped us with recommendations. We ordered some sandwiches and soup which pared well. They definitely kept up with the rush we saw come in. We noticed that the ladies working the store weren't the regulars too. Don't worry Lilly and Anthony, your mom's are doing a great job! Wish we could have met you. read more

I got to Seattle and I was craving for some of my well-known ethnicity food which is banh mi. Banh mi is well known in Vietnam for there fusion texture of French and Vietnamese for when the French conquer Vietnam. (Excuse my knowledge of food and also my culture) I believe what makes a great Vietnamese sandwich like banh mi is pate which is shredded bits of pork intestines, with Vietnamese meat like pork and chicken with their veggies like jalapeño, cilantro, and their vignetter shredded carrots and radish. I didn't get that at all. I wanted actually disappointed for an Asian run cafe shop to be serving a banh mi with the low quality they describe on their menu. I believe that anyone who wants to know authentic Vietnamese banh mi sandwich should good a good amount of meat, veggies and a fresh baguette. The baguette I could say was super fresh and delicious but lack the flavor of what I wanted to taste for a banh mi. I wanted more meat and more pate or pate if possible or even mayo! That will be the killer steal for this business if they added mayo and pate to their sandwich more. You honestly will make double the business with the taste flavor you are selling. For $6.50 for a Vietnamese sandwich? I could it get it back home, I thought this place would bring my culture and a sense of home here on Seattle. If anyone says it's good Vietnamese sandwich, you haven't been to California where in the east side it's $4 for a well full sandwich and you get what you paid for. Or you never had a good Vietnamese sandwich before which i can't believe because there's barely any here. There's no skipping on meat and veggies. If you have to add sriracha to your sandwich it's not done well. NO BANH MI SANDIWCH SHOULD NEED ANY SRIRACHA if the jalapeños are fresh where the corner of your mouth is on fire. read more

I try to support this small business, because the married couple who own it are really nice; however, they still have the inside portion of the restaurant closed, so you can only get take out. With cold winter weather setting in, I froze outside waiting for my order, while they were warm & toasty inside their restaurant. Wouldn't you want that for your customers, too? We're way past Covid, so open up the indoor portion of your restaurant! read more

This is a great place to stop by, if you're hungry and near the museums/gardens. The banh mi sandwiches are made on delicious baguettes that are fluffy and soft, yet crispy on the outside. The chicken and veggies are well-seasoned and has the perfect sweet, vinegary, and salty balance. I'd recommend this place if you're looking for something quick and tasty. read more

This goes out to Miss Lily T. who replied to my review of The Artisan Cafe. I am sorry that you are not able to acknowledge how your Mother in Law MISbehaved toward me. She lost her temper, and was SCREAMING AT ME, in full grotesqueness, after I asked for a double bag because even though your sandwiches can be quite good, they also leak and sauce does get on other stuff in my baggage. That was all I asked for, and the woman went off on me like a freakin' BANSHEE! Lily Dear: it really WAS your Mother in Law's misconduct toward me, personally, which led me to write this review of The Artisan Cafe. OK? read more

Such a cute cafe in Bell town. We got two types of sandwiches the Rachael and the smoked salmon. Both sandwiches were delicious, but I have to say the Rachael is one of the best sandwiches I have ever tasted. (Maybe I was really really hungry after a early flight so I might have bias but none the less I would definitely go back) SHE had cheese that was perfectly melted and bread that had the right amount of crunch. Honestly might be dreaming about this sandwich tonight. :) read more

Pretty good Banh mi, the staff were very friendly and accommodated my indecisiveness by putting tofu on one half of the sandwich and grilled pork on the other. Seasoning was a bit more on the sweeter side than I usually like, and the sandwich would benefit from mayo or something to make it less dry read more

Laptop camper here. Artisan Café is a tiny café by the monorail. They have soup, salad, sandwiches (cold, grilled, Vietnamese), pastries, coffee, tea and other beverages. The banh mi sounded promising since they have homemade pate. * Chicken & rice soup ($4.25): very thick (too thick), too salty, with wild rice, like a not very good chicken pot pie filling, would recommend avoiding The fro-yo (Honey Hill Farms) isn't offered year around. When it is available, you can find the flavors on their Facebook page for flavors. I wanted macarons but they were out (or they're not offered every day?) There is free wi-fi but limited seating (it's a small place). You know you love me. X0 X0, laptop camper. read more

Artisan Cafe probably doesn't deserve a full five stars, but they are clearly a family business serving delicious food and I feel obligated to reward that. I don't know about you, but getting a fantastically delicious Bánh mì for under $5 is something worth writing home about... especially when it's served with super pleasant service and a smile. Their coffee? Yeah, that's delicious too. Keep doing what you're doing Artisan, you're doing it right. (Banh mi - English alphabet spelling for search purposes. :-D) read more

Artisan Cafe is a hidden gem! I went here for lunch last week, and I was pleasantly surprised by how big and delicious my sandwich was. I had always passed by Artisan and never gave it much thought because from the outside, it looks small and empty. Once you get passed that and go inside, however, it's a cute café with tables, Beethoven and friendly women making sandwiches. I ordered the chicken salad sandwich which came with a side of Tim's chips. The chicken salad sandwich was served on slightly toasted bread, and filled with cranberries and big bites of chicken. So, so tasty. And for a sandwich + chips (or salad if you choose to be healthy), it's about $8. read more

Just a short walk from the Space Needle, this little local cafe was lovely. It's small, but cozy, and the staff were friendly and seemed to know almost everyone by name as they came in. I had a nice mocha and a breakfast wrap with bacon that was tasty and filling and reasonably priced. read more

We had the Rachel (came with chips) and the grilled pork bahn mi and early grey iced tea. Everything was fantastic! The grilled pork was tender and the sauce was perfectly delicious. The Rachel was sooo good. Not too much or too little kraut or Russian dressing, which can often be a problem area for ruebens and Rachels. Can't wait to go back! read more

I really enjoyed this quirky cafe on a typical dreary Seattle day. It was a nearly pleasant walk in the November rain from 6th Street North (where there happens to be the cheapest street parking in the entire city at $1.50/hour). The exterior facade Artisan Cafe is a classy coffee shop: brick with large windows on two sides. Inside is a counter behind which two Vietnamese women bustle about making drinks, sandwiches, and dishing up soups. The rest of the space is crammed with a few regular tables and high counters with stools lining the windows. On one of the counters is a healthy pile of newspapers and magazines. There were a good amount of power-strips for charging electronic devices - especially those that take advantage of Artisan Cafe's free wifi! I enjoyed a Vietnamese Meatball Baguette with a latte for a little over $8. The ladies behind the counter were polite and efficient. I watched one of them heating items in the two microwaves along the wall behind her and then assembling food. My baguette was wrapped in paper and then secured with a rubber-band. It was surprisingly ready before my latte! The sandwich was really interesting. At first I internally questioned if I was given the wrong item (see picture). The white-colored meat on the sandwich did not fit my understanding of a meatball nor was it covered in tomato sauce (per the menu description). The textures and flavors were scrumptious and I assumed that my original confusion was attributable to my unfamiliarity with Vietnamese meatballs. The meat tasted like chicken and was heavily seasoned with salt and vinegar. The freshness of the cilantro provided an inviting contrast to the bread and meat. The bread was soft and easily fit into my mouth. The flavor of the latte was initially bitter but other more interesting flavors quickly followed that impression. I'm not a good judge of the quality of coffee but I can tell you that I found this cup to be alright. I would have preferred a little sweetness; however, I could have easily gotten up from my seat and gone to the condiment station and added whatever sweetener I wanted but I chose not to do so. read more

This little cafe is super adorable. Their food is pretty good, as well. This establishment serves bagels, sandwiches, coffee, bahn mi (Vietnamese baguette sandwiches). I am particularly fond of the Seattle Club sandwich because there is turkey, lettuce, tomatoes, caramelized onions, BACON, and this delicious alioli sauce that they spread on the bread. Prices are a tiny expensive for the sandwiches ($7.50) but for whole sandwiches they also include chips so I guess it's worth it! It's cheaper than most of the other food options around the area, but the portion sizes aren't terribly big here either so keep that in mind. Plus the cute Asian girl that works there is always so ridiculously nice. Gah! read more

This is my new place for a quick and easy lunch in Denny Triangle! I had walked past this unassuming little corner restaurant many times before stopping in on a walk with my Little Dude because it is dog friendly. I am sooo glad I did because my meal was legit so good I kept thinking "damn, this is so delish!" After legit every bite. The Vietnamese Iced Coffee is a sweet and flavorful pick me up and their combo baguette (pork, fish sauce, pate, was seriously incredible - for sure the best lunch sandwich I've had in a long time. The bread was crispy but not too much and soft and chewy too as well as incredibly moist and so flavorful. The shop may be small but def pop in for some of the areas best lunch! read more

Had a serious chocolate milkshake craving! I'm 9 months pregnant so that means, I need it NOW! I work about 2 blocks from this place but I'd never even noticed it sitting there on the corner of 5th and Vine. I'm so glad I did though! This milkshake is EXCELLENT! They even topped it off with a little whipped cream. When I checked in I received a 10% off food coupon so now I have a reason to come back and try some food. I noticed they have some breakfast items and sandwiches. I'm a huge fan of Vietnamese sandwiches so I just may have to come back here very soon! read more

We stumbled upon this cafe in desperate need for food and coffee. We just got here from the airport and was waiting for an hour for a table at another brunch place. The coffee and bagel and lox sandwich were good and held us over. Nothing bad about it but nothing spectacular either. We ate and drank in Tilikum square around the corner which is very nice. Tip: if they ask you if you want room for cream, they're really asking if you want cream in your coffee. So if you want something other than cream, be sure to ask. read more

Thoroughly enjoyed the smoked salmon croissant sandwich; the croissant was toasted nicely, and also had swiss cheese and sliced tomato. The temperature of the sandwich was nice with the cool salmon and tomato balancing the hot croissant and melted swiss. Also tried the banh mi, which was not on the menu, and was very impressed. The pork was tender and had a nice sweet/spicy flavor to it, crunch was provided by the pickled carrots and peppers, cilantro and a house aioli completed this delicious sandwich. I should also note that after taxes the banh mi was only $5.20 with the smoked salmon croissant closer to $9. Excellent food at a very reasonable price and friendly service makes this a wonderful little spot for breakfast OR lunch. read more

The food I would give 5 stars but the availability only 1 hour into being open is 3 stars - so I gave it an average of 4 stars. Things we wanted but they didn't have: Drip coffee and Almond croissant - note that they are working to discontinue their pastries - so focus on coming here for the sammiches - which are amazing! :) Plain Jane Wrap w/Swiss: Yum!!! I will say it's not filling but that's why it's $5 :) But oh so delicious! Really great texture and flavor balance all around and very hot inside (most egg wraps I have tend to be cold in the middle). BGT (except replaced the G with M - replaced Gorgonzola with mozzarella): YUM!!!! Greasy deliciousness yummness! toasting is on the dark side which I love because the cheese is fully melted and again, perfect a lance of flavor - their house aioli sauce is amazing! Their chips here are Tim's Cascade! Yum!! I will eat here again, probably sooner than later! :) read more

I came across this place walking down 5th street towards the Space Needle. I was pleasantly surprised. This is a great breakfast place with exceptional coffee too. I opted for a chai latte which was good. For food, I ordered a breakfast croissant and the sunrise wrap. Both were very good and the food was fresh because we noticed one of the workers arriving with vegetables and such from the local farmer's market. I would recommend coming here for a good breakfast with coffee. read more

An awesome place right around the corner from my apt, Artisan Cafe is a nice little gem hidden in Belltown. The sandwiches there are absolutely delicious. I had the grilled pork Banh Mi over the weekend and it was awesome. Everything was fresh and the pork just melted in your mouth. What's even more amazing are the owners, they are absolutely some of the most friendly people around. After coming to this place no more than a few times, they remembered my name and were always upbeat and friendly. If you are around, you should definitely come and check this place out, guaranteed that you will be impressed! read more
