    Really cool library! Has different sections so there's an area to read with kids, a general library…read morearea, and a second floor that's very quiet and has cool antique fixtures, desks and office implements. There's also lots of local art throughout and plenty of different desk and chair set ups

    Time to provide yet another update on the PT Public Library. And this one will be a thank you to…read morethe library for continuing to provide free internet access on its public computer terminals. (I sit at a row of nine terminals right now...more are available nearby.) Oh...and free wi-fi. Yes, I do know that many public libraries offer free internet to patrons these days. Yes, I do know that Bill and Melinda Gates continue to encourage free internet access throughout the world. (Bless you, Mr. Rosewater, this little old librarian can't thank you enough.) But you must understand... The Port Townsend Public Library is now housed in its temporary quarters during the re-construction of its old Carnegie building. Books (and the aforementioned computers) are located *downstairs* at Mountain View Commons...which also houses the KPTZ radio station, the police station, the swimming pool and various other city-sponsored activities. And space at the library is still at a premium. The children's collection is located in a different building at the Commons. And the current library has a vaguely pungent smell of chlorine from the nearby swimming pool. And yet, and yet. The books are here. The librarians are here. The bank of computer terminals is right here. Waiting for those who need them. Oh...and the Port Townsend Public Library is still open seven days a week. Rain or shine. You can't get much better than that.

    The photos of extensive menu items or brunch may be old. There was a conference going on while we…read morewere there so maybe there's another cafeteria style place? Staff did not know what we were talking about we had seen in Yelp reviews. Came here for breakfast after perusing those photos. Format here is walk up to counter, order coffees or pick out canned beverages and baked items in case. And or circle ingredients to build your own breakfast sandwich. Staff at counter average, not particularly effusive but not unfriendly. Nice local artwork on walls, seat yourself. Biscuit "bun" tasty and kind of crispy on edges- like cornbread.

    4.5 stars. We came early right around opening with our toddler on Sat in winter and it was fairly…read moreempty, which was nice. I really liked the decor which was was bright and cute - colorful paintings of roosters and the town. We ordered salmon benedict and a basic type of breakfast (eggs, potatoes, bacon) that came with a side of French toast, which was covered in sweet banana coating. I thought my dish was a bit overpriced and not that great for what it was ($15ish and my fav part were the potatoes) but the portions were definitely large. Hubby enjoyed the benedict and secretly stole most of the banana French toast. They had kid seats which was nice and we let our toddler wander the fairly empty hotel lobby right outside the cafe. So I would consider the place fairly kid-friendly. Coffee was self-serve and delicious; they also had a barista for lattes and such. Lots of pastry options that looked pretty affordable, although we didn't try any.

    Took 12 people to lunch there today, it took us 20 minutes to get a cup of coffee 30 minutes to get…read moreour orders taken and almost an hour before we get our food served. Other people sitting next to us were served long before we were. Waitresses seemed to not care that we were waiting so long and despite asking about coffee multiple times it took them that long to get the coffee to our table . We were on the verge of leaving 50 minutes in when the first of our food started arriving . A number of people in the group were really upset how long it had taken to get food and asked me if we should just get up and leave. We know we were a big group, but we had made the effort to come by personally ask an hour before we even came whether it was OK that we came with that large a group and we were assured it would be. Food was a mixed bag french fries were no good according to two who had them much of the rest of it was ok.. We've taken this group here every single year for almost 10 years but we won't be back. No one in the group wanted to ever come back. This is a big change from last year . I'm a local and have eaten here maybe once a month for years and I've decided it's over for me too. We just gave them a huge amount of money that they likely rarely get at one sitting and we felt like we were being treated like they could care less that we were there.
