Streetfront building on the Main Street. We parallel parked on a side street. Order at the register and they call your name when ready. Indoor only seating. Fast and friendly service in a casual atmosphere. Odd that it's not only a coffee shop, but a beer and wine bar, too! We got two July 2026 specials - iced strawberry matcha, and nitro cold brew with vanilla oat cream. I enjoyed my matcha. Two drinks ran us $17 including tax and small tip. Idk about the value, but given today's pricing, I guess I shouldn't be surprised. read more

Great Staff Went here with coworkers 18+ people and they were so kind made every Oder with dedication and didn't complain on us being in there space. Food was all right, this is primarily a coffee/brunch spot. Bacon egg and cheese was the best or short ribs if you have a big appetite read more

This place was busy when I arrived at 10am! We didn't have to wait long though. I got a black coffee and a vegetarian pesto sandwich. It was delicious! Unfortunately, I didn't specify that I wanted the vegetarian one and was first given a chicken pesto sandwich (I didn't even realize there was a chicken option!) I explained the confusion and they quickly made me a new one. I felt bad! They said it happens more often than you'd think, so be sure to be specific about which one you want! read more

Such a cozy and welcoming neighborhood spot! I came around 8:30 on a Sunday morning and it was peaceful at first, then quickly filled with happy customers. The oat milk latte was great and the peanut butter cookie was delicious. They also had other fun cookie flavors like Fruity Pebble, cranberry oat pistachio, and sprinkle. The staff were so kind and welcoming. I'll have to come back to try their other food and drink offerings! read more

Just happened to stop by after dinner and it's open later than other cafes cuz they also serve wine. Cute place and friendly staff. Had golden milk and it wasn't too sweet. Would stop again when in the area! read more

The quality of the coffee here depends a lot on who makes it. The first time I came, I really enjoyed it. But on later visits, when I ordered a cappuccino, I was sometimes served a cup that was only half full, and they even mixed up the size I had ordered. Overall, it's a decent place, but if the barista who made my cappuccino is working, you might not be so lucky. P.S. One time I was even charged an extra dollar for sugar. I simply asked them to add sugar, but instead they added flavored syrup, put it on my bill, and never told me there would be an extra charge. read more

Didn't have any drinks (they looked good though) but good vibes. They were out of a lot of food but whipped feta was good, not great read more

Fable - Whipped feta - Wine Bars Near Me - Seattle, Washington

What a hidden gem! We've ordered 2 different types of sandwiches and 4 variety of beverages (see photos). Staffs are so friendly explaining all the ingredients and very accommodating to our dietary needs. Upon entering the restaurant, we grab a menu and place order at the counter then grab a table to seat yourself. I for ambience is modern, clean and outdoor seating is also available. Parking is available on the street. I would highly recommend this place for food, coffee and wine - all of their menu selections are impressive. Bon appetite! We've ordered: Muffuletta sandwich, Fable eggplant pastrami sandwich, Rosemary latte, Lavender blossom latte, glass of Pinot Noir & Nitro Cold brew. Delicious! read more

Very thoughtfully appointed place to work from, meet friends, or just have any kind of casual meal or drink. I had a frittata and toasted lemonade that was delightful, and the service was also very attentive. I feel like this place deserves more hype! read more

I found this elegant coffee shop near where I'm staying on Beacon Hill. The place is laid out in a very comforting and relaxing fashion, serving well prepared coffee drinks and a great selection of pastries. They also have a full wine bar which makes it a great place to come anytime of the day. The staff was super friendly and made us feel very welcome. I will definitely be visiting periodically since it's an enjoyable place to hang. It is located within easy walking distance of the beacon Hill links stop. I recommend the place highly. read more

Fable All Day is the definition of a hidden gem, tucked away in Beacon Hill with a vibe that feels like a warm, sun-soaked secret. The ambiance is the ultimate in "cozy-chic"--think light-filled windows, marble counters, and a curated, low-key energy that makes it the perfect sanctuary for a slow weekend morning. While the space is beautiful, the brunch menu is the real story, offering creative, thoughtful dishes that elevate comfort food to an art form. You absolutely cannot leave without trying the Breakfast Sandwich; served on pillowy Sea Wolf brioche with chicken sausage and a sweet-hot mustard kick, it's a total game-changer. If you're leaning into the "sweet and savory" life, the Cornmeal Waffles are a standout--impossibly light, perfectly textured, and a favorite for locals in the know. Pair your meal with one of their specialty lattes (the Toffee Mocha is a dream) or a crisp glass of natural wine, and you'll see exactly why this neighborhood haunt is Seattle's best-kept brunch secret. read more

Enjoyed the vibes at this cafe and all the different foods that they offer. They were helpful and happy to answer any questions we had when ordering. Lattes: autumn latte and mapleine Mocha are both great options, their drinks aren't too sweet which is lovely with seasonal flavors. Although, the oat milk they use in their lattes seems too watery or not creamy enough? It might be the combo of milk to autumn latter syrup/mix though. Chicken sausage breakfast sandwich: great flavor, solid type of bread for a breakfast sandwich, ask for their hot sauce to eat with this, it was excellent! Seasonal butternut squash soup: this was creamy in texture and the oil on top went well with the soup, but for some reason this soup wasn't my favorite Masa waffle: wow the texture on this waffle is so good!! The smoked paprika butter was an interesting change and the tamarind syrup was pretty strong so a little goes a looooong way with the syrup. Make sure you dip and don't pour the syrup on the waffle. Keyyyyy read more

I miss Vif in Fremont, never got to Petite Soif on Beacon Hill, but this afternoon I made it a point to stop by Fable, the current business here along busy Beacon Ave S (8/2/23). This stretch from 15th Ave S to Spokane has a nice collection of cafes, bars, and restaurants to check out. After nearly an hour in I-5S traffic, I had to detour through Capitol Hill & CID just to get to Beacon Hill. Lucked out with nearby street parking, and just an fyi, Fable is located along a Metro route and reasonable walking distance from the light rail station. Fable is a lovely oasis, the interior has natural light along the tree lined street. Lush foliage throughout the space. Overhead music to chill out and relax. There's a few sidewalk tables, six indoor tables, some bar/counter seating too. And yes, there's WiFi. Fable exudes a welcoming, neighborhood vibe. Currently, they offer beverages, baked goods, and some eats. I opted for a 16oz Twin Brook Cold Brew Mocha which was very refreshing. The peanut butter cookie had a crisp sugary exterior with moist, flavorful interior crumb. Definitely a nice spot to grab some beer & wine to go, nosh on something tasty, have a pleasant meetup, or a spontaneous detour to just chill. read more

We had reservations to come here on a Saturday around noon. Upon checking in, our table is ready and we were walked to the back. The back patio is absolutely gorgeous. It's a mix of plants/trees and an outdoor covering. Unfortunately the day we went, it was a bit rainy so gloomy overcast, however, you're still covered "indoors." For food, I ordered the omelette, which had sausage and came with a side salad. Overall, the food and service was good and it's a cute place for brunch. Would recommend coming here with a group of friends! read more

Met with some friends for brunch, more of a coffee shop than a brunch location. Small portion for price, friendly service, espresso drinks were creative but tasted almost watered down. Speciality wine and beers on purchase. Their waffle is tasty but very small. Ham and Brie sandwich was stale. Overall fairly disappointed and wouldn't make a special trip to come back but would give a second try if we lived closer. read more

TLDR - what you see is what you get here. Living in beacon hill I would say this is the best coffee shop in the area. There's gonna be something here for everyone, vegan, gluten free, dairy free, and everything in between. Like I said in the tldr. If you see the photos of the establishment and like the vibe I confident you will like it here. read more

I tend to support local small businesses within walking distance so since I moved back to the area, I've already made a few trips here. A very pleasant & cozy day cafe in a newer building. The interior design is very well-done, especially with the blacked out utilities hanging from the ceiling (which often times other businesses just don't bother with); this helps create a strong harmony top-down inside. Feels like a subtle classical big city American diner w/ modern flair. Similar menus and format throughout the day; the dinner time is just a bit less casual. Their vegan options are super decent. Not a huge fan of romesco sauce but the eggplant sandwich is nice. My current favorite item is the seasonal squash soup w/ focaccia bread side (plus extra side bread of baguette). Wholesome, healthy and goes down smooth; plus, who doesn't love a good dipper with sides of bread? They also have a small case of treats. Usually, I'd get the chocolate brownie or spiced scone. Every other morning/afternoon, you'll probably find me getting my decaf oat latte fix with one of their neat house flavors or seasonal specials in my personal mug. Don't forget bringing your own bag (totes are my favorite) for take-out can help them save supplies. Minor things (I can notice these small details) for feedback: The bar counter at the far end could've been extended 6-12" longer to more comfortably fit 1 extra bar seat. And the bathroom sink spout is too close to the bowl edge; that too should've been extended a few inches out. Staff is otherwise very friendly and chill. 2 thumbs up, yo! read more

Great selection of wine, non alcoholic amaros and beautiful ambiance! Staff were very friendly. I ticked off 1 star because i think they can improve on their bean spread & veggie plate. We were given a bed of raw kale and raw carrots hahaha. They had a hint of salt but between the party of three people we were extremely confused how to eat this. The carrots still had their roots & stems intact which felt like something i couldve bought from whole foods without preparing for it. Im not sure if id recommend this specific item off the menu but their orange wine tasted good. read more

Good breakfast, good neighborhood joint, friendly staff. This is somewhat standard for Seattle, so its hard to distinguish yourself...

Great food and atmosphere! We had a quick lunch here, the service was quick and efficient. And all the food were enjoyable

This place is amazing! I love the cookies and the coffee is pretty great too. It was a nice place to go to in the middle of the day for lunch and a caffeine pick-me-up. read more

What a perfect addition to the neighborhood! I never made it in during its previous iteration, but so glad I finally visited! Great selection of food ranging from pastries and waffles, to sandwiches and quiche. Very reasonable prices They make all their pastries in house, and source their bread from Sea Wolf! Beautiful atmosphere suitable for grabbing a quick bite, getting some work done, and relaxing. Everyone I spoke to was so friendly and attentive. I especially enjoyed the cookies, breakfast sandwiches, and lavender blossom latte - and I'll definitely be back to try everything else! read more

I travel for work and visit many coffee shops; What sets one above another is the design, fresh ingredients and the smell you you walk in (could be spices, fresh bread or cleanliness). This place is well designed, modern with a touch of home. A place must make you feel comfortable, have plants and make you feel welcomed. It's been tough for me to find a good coffee shop that has all of the above. I'm not sure if they make their own bread, but you can tell that it's made recently, which I appreciate. Although they may not be perfect, they're trying to check all of the boxes. The only things I don't care for (like), are the temperature and the music. read more

I only came here for wine, so I can't comment on the food, but I loved it here! The cafe/wine bar itself is super cute, and they have an assortment of wine, food, coffee, and dessert. We came here while we were waiting for our table at familyfriend next door, and really enjoyed the wines we tried! I love that they offer half pours on the menu, so you can try more wines instead of getting a full pour of a single wine. Service was super nice, and they were great about getting our check quickly when our table at familyfriend opened up earlier than expected! read more

Okay, I don't live around here and we found this place kind of by accident but this is literally the gold standard for what a cafe should be and would be my go to if I lived closer. To be fair, I don't drink alcohol so can't speak to that side of this place (although it looks like it has a great selection). But here are all the "yes, checks": 1) Great atmosphere. It had gentle, candle lighting throughout so that I actually thought it was closed but the hours were on the door and I saw a few people inside so we went in. My friend immediately started commenting on the window decor which is currently a lovely display of dried flowers in garland, wreath and vase form. (Available to purchase as well, which is an extra bonus). The seating is simple but comfortable and beautiful. 2) Enticing menu. We went in for a cup of coffee but ended up with a latte, soup, cookies, and a sausage dog. All were delicious. I also loved that they had specialty chocolates, coffee and non alcoholic drink mixes available for purchase on the side for gifts or later treats. I didn't peruse all the baked goods in the case but, looking from a distance I saw that they each looked unique and flavorful and I would've liked to try more. I love a place with variety but also not so packed you can't decide. Also they had some vegan and vegetarian options which I loved. 3) Excellent service. I was meeting here with a friend. We live an hour and a half away from each other and don't get to meet up as often as we would like and this ended up being a perfect place to catch up. Everything else seemed to be closing but this place was open till 9 (on a Saturday). We were never made to feel our time was up and the waitresses filled our water and checked with us but also gave us space. I'm sorry I didn't get their names but they were very kind and friendly, smiley and relaxed which added to the ambience. Perfect experience. Thanks so much!!!! P.s. Prices! I forgot to say that the prices were also just right! I was very happy with what I spent and what I got. Again, everything was wonderful! read more

Service: Staff was friendly :) Food: I got the autumn latte which seemed a bit watery to me. I'll want to try something else next time. I got their overnight oats made with blackberry compote and coconut milk and it was just the right amount of sweetness and creaminess for me. I would order this again! Parking: Street parking only but it was easy to find. read more

If i'm being honest i didn't absolutely love fable. I know it is a sweet place to go for a relaxed wine time with some friends or if you need a little snack, but the menu was very limited and not great for people that need many options. there was also a limited drink menu in my opinion. It was cute and the waitstaff were super sweet, but 2/4 people in my group didn't end up ordering any food or drinks when we came. The food the other 2 ordered were very yummy. read more

Service was okay and the food/drinks were good. On the other hand though the prices here are kinda high. Would go back here again though and I'd recommend this cafe. read more

Good food. I got the muffuletta sandwich and it was delicious. Welcoming staff and chic ambiance.

Use to go to Petit Soif but they closed due to Covid. Fable finally opened earlier this year. They are an all-day cafe during the day with some really good options for breakfast and lunch. Beacon finally have more brunch options and brought the kids this past weekend, they really enjoyed the waffles, I had the smoked salmon sandwich, kids took my sandwich too. After 4pm, they start table service. Been back a couple of times for dinner. Portions surprisingly larger than I thought. The beet salad was one of my fav with different types of beets. Second fav was their braised pork cheek. Large variety of wine, mostly on the lighter side. Service is personable. Ambiance is nice and quiet. Very cute place for a date or girls dinner. Will be back tomorrow for a belated birthday celebration with my girlfriends. read more

I don't like to complain. Made reservations for Mother's Day for 11AM for a small party of 4. We left at 12:30 pm because food had not yet been served. Later found out from the table next to us that the computers were down as they were leaving un-served. The manager kept seating customers as if there wasn't a care in the world. I was mostly upset that we kept getting told we would be served in 10 minutes, 30 minutes later we left. Secondly, we noticed walk-in customers at the bar came in after us and left at noon. Manager made no effort communicate to the customers the situation, very upsetting to my family. read more

We love Fable! We stayed 3 nights at an Airbnb on Beacon Hill and went to Fable every morning. Simple, elegant menu, comfortable, casual, intimate setting. Friendly service.
