Delicious breakfast burrito. Made Fresh. Very friendly service. Reasonable prices. Family owned it seems. The best breakfast burrito I've found (I've been looking) by far in South Lake Union. read more

The sandwich was pretty good but nothing terrible special. I got the Korean street toast. The omelette part was too big for the bread and fell out the side which was annoying. Bacon was correctly cooked and the flavor overall was good. It was pretty empty when I went but the service was pretty fast too. read more

I had a chance to try Cafe Madeline when in the area for a yummy breakfast. I was in town for work and needed a quick bite to eat so I found this place which was close to the hotel. This is a bit of a cafeteria Style spot but service is fast and ambiance is very casual. There are plenty of seats to sit at after you order which is nice. My 4 stars is solely for the food as other aspects were top notch. I ordered the chorizo breakfast burrito which was made absolutely fresh with no skimping out on the fillings. I loved how each bit was full of all the fix-ins. However, my only qualm is I wish the burrito had more flavor. I feel chorizo is rich in flavor and that did not come across in the burrito. Other than that they gave a salsa which was a nice addition. Overall, pretty good experience here! read more

Cafe Madeline - Chorizo burrito - Sandwiches Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Stop by around 10:45 am for a quick bite. They had switched to their lunch menu at the time. We got a bulgogi kimbap and the sweet and spicy fried chicken. Both dishes were very good. The kimbap was quick, prepared fresh by the server and best option if you need something quick. The KFC took a bit longer because it was fried at the time and came with fries and radish. Id say the flavor was 10/10 but some times there was too much excess breading. There was ample seating if you wanted to sit down but we took everything together. read more

Super good breakfast burrito meal and clean dining area. There was a lot of tables and seating options.

i've been to this restaurant at least about five times mainly for breakfast. I ordered chicken twice the first time it was good the second time horrible no batter fries greasy soggy. I tried to call down to be reimbursed or to express the issue that I had with the Food they never answered. I've literally called 3 or four days back to back. They wouldn't answer the phone. This happened on January 18 here I am today which is July 1 ordering food and to come talk to Mr. Andrew Chang about. about the bad service which is the owner of the place. He downplay everything that I said would not reimburse me my money because he couldn't pull it up in his computer but mind you everyone that works there knows me and they know that I pay for it, but instead of reimbursing me, he asked me to leave his place because he couldn't figure out what card that I use which I gave to him showed him my card. He wanted me to prove to him that I paid when he knows I paid there is a Spanish guy that works there that knows that I paid and there's also an asian lady that works there as well. They all know that I've paid this is not my first time coming down there, but instead, I guess it made him feel good in front of customers by asking me to leave instead of reimbursing me my money the food is horrible his attitude Andrew's attitude, which is the owner is terrible. I would never recommend anyone going down there in anything everything is really really greasy the cook never changes his gloves. He use the same gloves for everything. I'm in the Food service as well and we know to switch out gloves. If you really took the test the food handlers test if anyone decides to go there check out the cook pay attention. He never switches his gloves out. He touches his hair. He runs his hands through his hair. You know brushes, his gloves on his pants, never switches out and that's a hazard itself. I would never wishes on my worst nightmare. read more

I would set of describe this place as a "fusion type" of Korean "bowls". The food was good. Fast food line type of service. If you are looking for an authentic Korean Restaurant, this is no the place.... read more

What a great place for breakfast. Ordered the French toast and the classic platter. Both were delicious. The staff was friendly. The bathroom was super clean. The cherry on top, the prices were WAY better than what the hotel wanted to charge. Glad I found this place. Thank you. read more

I am a big yelper so with 5 stars, I def had to go and check this place out. First off, I do want to say, I came here for breakfast, but it seems as if they have an intensive lunch menu, unfortunately I won't be able to try as I am here for a training and lunch is provided. With that being said. I had the 2 eggs (cooked well), bacon (crispy per my request) and the hash brown, to my surprise the hash brown was not frozen, it's the type of hash brown that you would purchase at a grocery store and warm up via oven/air fryer. Their espresso machine was out of order, so a bit bummed. However, their drip coffee wasn't too bad. Was a one person show so lucky it wasn't too busy, so we got our food pretty quickly. Other than that, just your average cafe food. read more

Cafe Madeline - Two egg breakfast - Sandwiches Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Very good cappuccino and breakfast sandwich! Helpful staff as well and big dining area.

It's the courthouse cafeteria and, for that, not bad. Since the customers are relatively captive and usually pressed for time, they must strive first for efficiency. You come, you order, you get a box for what you ordered, and out you go. You'll come back if the box contained what you ordered and was eatable. They exceeded that expectation and therefore also attracted some external foot traffic. I would say the breakfast plate was exactly what I expected, taste-wise, and also the Americano. I was hoping for better serving ware and utensils. Like a real plate and metal knife/fork. But they couldn't be bothered to separated dine-in and to-go customers. To be fair, I was the only one sitting down to eat. read more

The place was very spacious and incredible servers who were very friendly. I would definitely recommend for a morning break. The food did take a little bit longer which means it's fresh unlike some breakfast places. I really enjoyed the k toast but would've liked a bit more flavor in the eggs. Overall I would come back to try other items on their menu. read more

Got delivery via DoorDash. Ingredients were fresh and good quality, but the "Maddie Melt" did not come grilled, so def wasn't a "melt" (and yes, I did specify hot in my order). The Courthouse Club was exactly as described. read more

Andrew is the best! He's so open and welcoming. His energy explodes in a good way to attract people. I would love to live in Seattle just to come here and feel the positive energy. We tried the Korean street toast, recommended here on Yelp! I ordered three one with sausage, one with bacon and one with ham. My husband and I shared. (Obviously took home leftovers it's so filling) My girls had hash browns and fries( not my choice for their last breakfast here) but hey I wanted a pain free meal . So good and must try. Our first visit last week we had the court house sandwich. All choices were amazing. And don't forget to order your hot cocoa! Mahalo cafe Madeline for your excellent service read more

Wow! What a great greeting this fine Monday morning. They greet everyone like they know them. I sat in the lobby and was able to observe it. The breakfast burrito was yummy. The coffee was PERFECT!

Best Korean cafe under the courthouse with the nicest chillest staff and vibe! Watch the hours for breakfast and lunch as they're short and items may run out. Lots of seating and delicious Seoul bowls where you can taste the authenticity. They have Korean breakfast items, regular cold cut sandwiches and lunch Seoul bowls. Around $15 for a bowl of delicious Korean food. Choose a base of rice or japchae, add bulgolgi, spicy pork, chicken, or tofu. Get the chicken- it was surprisingly better and juicier than the bulgolgi with plenty of flavor. Add the toppings- there's kimchi, corn, greens, pickled veg, etc. tl;dr super nice staff! Get the chicken Seoul bowl with japchae! Delicious! read more

Cafe Madeline serves up a solid Korean street toast and coffee. I was searching for a breakfast/coffee place on my most recent trip to Seattle and this restaurant was just a few blocks from my hotel. The Korean street toast was well-made with a Korean omelet, Krispy bacon, and ketchup sandwiched between well- buttered bread ($10). They also had a solid mocha. I couldn't connect to their wifi so might not be an amazing place to sit and study, but that may have been more due to my technical ineptitude than the lack of wifi. read more

This is my go to lunch when I work downtown. They are clean and the food is fresh. Their food is consistently good, and I can rely on the taste and freshly prepared food each time I go. They staff is engaging, and they are a family-owned business. Many of the staff remember my order and make me feel welcomed each time. The variety of food it also great as they offer a breakfast menu, deli sandwich menu, Korean bowl menu AND a Korean Grill menu. Not to mention an on-point chicken sandwich. Price is fair and I typically spend $17.00 or less on my meals and I am full afterward! For reference I am not a little meal human and definitely enjoy good food Shakira style; whenever, wherever. read more

The food here is amazing! They have everything from coffee, drinks, bakery, sandwiches, and lunch in one stop. I got spicy pork over purple rice with all the toppings. The staffs are super friendly and welcoming. This is the gem spot to eat delicious lunch and get some coffee on a busy day! read more

Cafe Madeline was very spacious and clean! Above the signage outside, it said it used to be the courthouse cafe linked to the courthouse. I noticed there were officers circling the area so it felt very safe to be in that area. We went for lunch on a Wednesday and we were greeted promptly and nicely by the staff. In addition to their sandwiches, they now have their "Seoul Bowls" there as well. We got the bowl with purple rice, bulgogi, and all of the toppings (grilled onions, pickled jalapeño, kimchi, cucumber kimchi, pickled daikon radish, Korean mashed potato) drizzled with a delicious sauce. This one is not pictured because we couldn't wait to dig in! We also got the #5 Supreme Heat on ciabatta, #6 Maddie Melt on whole grain and the Korean street toast with bacon that was on the breakfast menu. The Korean street toast can't be found anywhere else and it was so good! Even my picky mom enjoyed that one! It was a nice find as they use Boar's Head meats and serve Caffe D'arte coffee. They also have Donut Factory donuts if you're looking for something sweet! Definitely will go back to try their breakfast sandwiches (we went too late for that as breakfast ends at 10:30). read more

Cafe Madeline - Constitution caprese sandwich. - Sandwiches Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Café Madeline has great rice bowls that I love. But I've gone from being a weekly/regular customer (I work in the courthouse) to barely going and only when I'm too lazy to walk elsewhere. This is because each of those approximately 4-5 times I visited in the past few months, I've been turned away because they'd run out of their ingredients. (Once, I managed to grab the last bowl - my first in maybe 6 months!) And this happens usually well before 1pm, too, the end of peak lunch hour! In short, they have good food when you can get it, which seemingly is never. They are hardly apologetic when they tell you you have to go somewhere else for your food, presumably because it happens everyday and they get the profit they need. As a result, I have transitioned from being really happy to have them at the courthouse and wanting to support their business to associating the Café with disappointment, unreliability, and lack of care about their customers. I wish they would stock enough ingredients to at least last through the lunch hour in consideration of their customer base, or at least put up signs when they run out so that I don't waste so much time every time I go. read more

Good sandwiches. Haven't tried the bowls yet, but it smells so good when you walk in. Will try one day

The classic plate is my way to start the morning! Pleased to be able to grab a hot freshly cooked breakfast and to my liking. The ability to choose from different meats, breads, and how I like my eggs, instead of just pre-frozen. Great hardworking staff all around, would recommend others stop by and grab a bite to eat! read more

Will not purchase a sandwich here again. I realized that I have been waiting for 20 minutes for my to-go order Supreme Heat sandwich. There was one family in the cafe that was already seated eating their food. 3-4 staff behind the sandwich bar working. Once I realized the staff was hanging around chatting and sort of cleaning up, I decided that I will just stand closer and wait. Soon after they noticed me, they scrambled around and told me they lost my ticket order and would make my sandwich asap. The bigger issue is the sandwich itself. $13+ with a tip to get theeeee most disappointing sandwich... two slices of chicken breast, two small, undercooked bacon pieces. The pictures on the menu, in the cafe and online, absolutely do not reflect the outgoing product. Not worth the wait, or the money. read more

Best sandwiches in the world. You can tell they make everything with pride and love. Try their Korean Street Toast breakfast sandwiches, it will make all other bfast sandwiches reconsider themselves.

Outstanding. Good food. Weird sandwich and Korean thing but that's ok. Location in the courthouse means it's busy
