Just several weekends ago we met up with some family who move to Port Townsend not too long ago. It was suggested that we go to Owl Sprit Cafe which we were thrilled to hear it come up. This latest visit would be our third time here and the food is as good as ever! This time around I got their Banh MI sandwich which had pork belly for the meat. It was fantastic! That pork practically melted in my mouth it was so good! The veggies that came along with sandwich were very fresh too! We spotted desserts and I got won over by the carrot cake and as expected it was wonderful! Flavorful, moist and a joy all around this carrot cake was something that I could have as a frequent guilty pleasure. Still five stars all of the way! read more

The small dining room was intimate, warm, and inviting after walking around PT for a cold couple hours. The service was good and the food was delicious. I enjoyed a vegetarian burrito, my wife had a really good chicken sandwich, and our son wolfed down a toasted cheese sandwich and tomato bisque soup. It was a nice that fueled us up for another couple hours of shopping around town. We will definitely be back as we make the trip a few times a year read more

Had a great late lunch at Owl Spirit Cafe after a morning of whale watching. The food was fresh and delicious and the bohemian feel to the place was nice. Friendly service. read more

Our favorite place to eat when we visit PT. Food is delicious. Atmosphere is cozy and welcoming. Wait staff pleasant and attentive. A bit spendy, but it is quality food that is locally sourced and prepared with care. Worth it for us. Definitely recommend. read more

Nice little cozy cafe with a variety of food ( gluten free as well) that you can try. Service is excellent. Prompt and friendly. Price is a bit high. But quality of food well worth it. read more

The food is good! It's a lovely, warm place, small and cheerful. It's pricy, $20 a sandwich with no sides. The sweet potato fries are good but the basket is small so don't expect a heap. The service was nice but exceedingly slow and got two out of five orders wrong, and they weren't hard orders, no changes or weird stuff. Good hearty food, great for vegans, vegetarians and gluten free, and for everybody else too. read more

Recently had a septuagenarian get together (3 brothers and a cousin and spouses plus a next generation son/nephew) here. Small place but the waitress did a great job getting us situated and then getting all our various orders taken and delivered. We all had soup, salad or sandwiches. Everybody was happy with their food. My pork Bahn mi was excellent. read more

Awesome food and service! It's a very unique place with fresh ingredients and a great ambience.

I absolutely love the burger but it's 24$ after tax no fries... I don't love that. It's an every two week treat but my wallet winces every time I go there read more

My guests (including two somewhat hard-to-please children) absolutely loved our lunch recently at Owl Sprit Cafe. The atmosphere was both charming and comfortable, and the service was excellent. The menu worked very well for both vegetarian and gluten-free diners (lunchers?), with the most difficult part being making a selection among many great options. read more

Everything about this place is thought out. The decor inside is delightful and whimsical. The food is delicious! Staff is friendly. Sweet potato fries were a highlight! read more

Unfortunately, I did not enjoy the food here. I got a taco salad to go and it was just disproportionately filled with beans and corn. I think that the price for the food is again, disproportionately expensive and the food was just bland and undesirable. It tastes as if they just opened a can of black beans, rinsed it under water, and plopped it onto lettuce. Unfortunately, I would not return to this establishment. read more

What a great find! This is a wonderful little restaurant just off Water St. It is small but has a full menu and decent beer selection. We're vegan and went with the Bahn Mi sandwich which as simply fantastic. Excellent bread, spicy vegan mayo and tasty mushrooms. We also had the potato and asparagus soup which was creamy and filling. Good service (a bit slow when they're busy) and a friendly and relaxed environment. Really enjoyed it each time we came here. read more

Very generous portion of taco salad with beef! Not pictured are the bag of tortilla chips. I think this is big enough that it can be shared between 2 people or possibly saved as leftovers. For $20, this had me full way past dinner. Regardless, this is a cute place to stop by for a lunch or dinner date with very cool and cozy art. The desserts at the counter are also really yummy, especially the brownie with miso sauce! Don't get caught red handed eating dessert while waiting for pick up like we did. Shout out to the cashier who had a good laugh at that lol. You can also order ahead of time on the website to save some time for pick up! read more

Popped in recently just before a ferry. It had been awhile since I'd been there. Was a little blown away by the price of a slice of cake and a drink. The server seemed to be new and a little timid - hovering when unnecessary then nowhere to be found at usual times a server would check in. The food was good but again, pricy. read more

Been here many times previously with a very positive experience. My husband and I went Jan 16, 2026 around 1pm. It was good timing, there were only 3 other couples in there and our favorite table in the window was available. I saw only one staff member a woman (with greying hair). She walked over, no greeting and snapped the menu out of my husband's hand. She immediately starting scolding us for sitting at a table that was not fully set up and how we should have choosen a table that is fully set up. She then took a bottle of disinfectant and began aggressively spraying the table top and spraying my husband I as well, as she continue to complain that she had other things to do besides cleaning and setting up a table for us. We were both in shock. As she walked away, I noticed the other 3 couples looking over at what just transpired, seemingly as dismayed as we were. I also noticed that they were all sitting there, with no food or water, menus stacked on the edge of their tables. At that point, our decision to leave was an easy one. As we walked out, one patron smiled uncomfortably at me and said "Had enough of that abuse?" We walked down a block to La Cocina and had an excellent, fresh meal with friendly service. We both agree that we don't know if we'll ever want to return to Owl Sprit. read more

Food was very good. Service was very nice and the ambiance very local and very relaxing. Will go back for sure next time we are in Port Townsend. read more

The food, the ambiance and the service were perfect for a relaxing Sunday lunch. The burgers were perfect for me, the right amount of juicy. I loved the blue cheese, bacon and special sauce. My hubby likes them a little less juicy but he enjoyed it very much. The sweet potato fries were spicy and almost as sweet as the server! ;) read more

The sweet potato fries are ridiculously good. I believe they fried them. They are somehow sweet and have a nice little spice kick. The service was good. There were only 4 of us in the place. It was not a big place, so I couldn't imagine the place ever getting too terribly busy. I'd go back. No breakfast food and the food options were limited. It's not a bad thing, but just a heads up. read more

Small portions and a witchy vibe. Ick. Relatively expensive. I mean how much is a head of lettuce? If weird is your thing and you've got the coin, this is your spot. read more

I planned a birthday trip for a lovely friend of mine, and I chose this place to fit everyone's dietary needs. They knocked it out of the park with the taste, flavor, and allergen needs for all 4 of us. They offer gluten free/ vegan options which is a must for half our party. I ordered the Banh Mi, and I would 100% go back for that sandwich. I didn't leave a crumb on my plate! All the other ladies also ate all of their food. Not pictured were the sweet potato fries with a spicy aioli! They last maybe two minutes as an appetizer. The cage was extremely busy with one server, and she was amazing, and very accommodating. If you are looking for a delicious meal in Port Townsend I couldn't recommend them more! The seating is so comfortable, and the music was so good! We all will be back! read more

Had a beautiful lunch here alone, sat outside, this summer. My friend highly recommended it and I was not disappointed. Server was great, sorry I didn't catch his name. Sitting outside was charming, ended up chatting with the couple next to me, super nice people. I love that I could find a gluten-free, vegan dish here easily. Had the Cauliflower Taco Bowl at the waiter's suggestion... and it was indeed delicious. Next time I will try the Mediterranean Bowl as I suspect I will like it even more, but I was very happy with my lunch. Bathroom is gorgeous inside, too, for whatever that's worth - neat decor and wallpaper. read more

Small and cozy restaurant specializing in fresh ingredients. We had the PT bowl with chicken and two kombucha style drinks. Good quantity, but after tip, we ended up spending over $100 for 2 salads and 2 drinks. Attentive and friendly staff. read more

We picked this place purely based on Yelp reviews and upon arriving at the place, I realized how cozy the place was. Anyways, amazing food with top quality ingredients. Here is what we ordered. - Sweet potato fries - Chicken burger - Bhanmi - Rueben sandwich read more

Ordered a vegetarian burrito and a vegan burrito for take out. The servers were super friendly and accommodating. We used the bathroom while we waited, and I've got to say, it was one of the cutest bathrooms I've been in in a long time! Who knew you could find sloth wallpaper?! When our burritos were ready we both remarked on how heavy the bag was - meaning well-stuffed burritos! They were SO DELICIOUS! The veggie and vegan burritos had all of the same things except no cheese or sour cream with the vegan. The grilled zucchini, peppers, and other vegetables were amazing. It was the perfect meal to take across the street and eat by the water! We finished and were full, but not uncomfortable, plus we had packed in a lot of vegetables, which can be hard to do when you're eating out. My partner is hoping we can swing back through tomorrow before leaving town for another! read more

This delightfully intimate cafe is tucked away and off the main drag. It's full of personality, from the on trend interior design and music to the warm attentive staff. I loved the portobello sandwich. The sourdough was toasted just right. My partner had the burger which loved but wished for fries to go along. My parents had a chicken taco salad and a Rueben sandwich. Both loved their choices. We were served by 3 different folks who were all nice and friendly. I decided to have dessert and was not disappointed by the vegan brownie. If I lived here this would be my go to for meeting up with friends. read more

This place was amazing! We were able to sit outside with our dog (they had a water bowl for dogs too!) The food is high quality and worth every penny. I'm still thinking about the Chicken burger I had - it was THAT good! The server was friendly and attentive. The energy in this place is awesome and all the customers seemed friendly and happy. Next time we're in PT we'll be back! read more

The service was ok. The ambiance was very nice. The food was decent but in small portions. But the prices. The prices were exceptionally high for the amount of food you get. Most items are $20 with no sides. A small plate of fries are $12 read more

Thought the food and the service were both excellent and would definitely go back again. For those complaining about the prices I suggest you look at the prices at all restaurants. They are all expensive. Hence the reason I rarely eat out. However the food here was unique and delicious. read more

Delicious food! Most items are gluten free and everything is freshly made. We had the lamb kabab, the cauliflower starter and the sweet potato fries starter. Such a cozy comfy cafe! Will definitely be back on our next visit! read more

The food was incredible, the service was not great, the ambiance and vibe of the cafe was lovely. From the moment we walked in the door it felt like we were a problem to the front of house. He motioned two options for us to sit so we started to sit at the one closest to us I thought he motioned to (the only open table in that area). As I sat he yelled from across the room "no not there", apparently he meant a table that had dishes on it. We walked to the other clean table he motioned to. The rest of our service was not what I would call friendly. It seemed like something I/we did really irritated him but I have no clue what the was. On the flip side the food was incredible. I had the fried cauliflower bowl and it was very filling and tasty. Absolutely loved the feel of the cafe, so homey and cozy. read more

Great spot with lots of effort and love put into the food Sweet Potato Fries were absolute perfection....the size, the fry-ness, the amount and size of the salt on top....oh man. And the Blue Cheese and Apple Salad was fresh and tasty! Cheeseburger with Cheddar...awesome. Juicy with super fresh toppings and good bread Very nice staff that was overwhelmed with a large crowd and still handled everything and everyone with aplomb Desserts looked real damn good Very much recommend! read more

Fabulous food and comfy boho ambiance. I ordered the fried cauliflower salad, which was basically a taco salad The bowl had pinto beans, seasoned rice, vegetable mix with chimichurri sauce, mango salsa, house made tortilla chips, and spiced fried cauliflower. It was delicious. I chose this restaurant because they specialize in gluten-free food. The decor is very nice , a very comfortable place for parties of one to six people. I will definitely visit again and try other things on the menu. They have a nice drinks selection. Entrees are about $20 a plate. Service was quick even though there was just one server. My only wish was that they had cloth napkins instead of paper ones. read more

Crispy, warm with a nice aioli for dipping. read more

My mother does not Yelp, so she asked me to share her experience. This afternoon, a crime was committed. My mother and stepfather attended luncheon here. My mother is a devout vegetarian. They ordered the portobello mushroom sandwich. When the sandwich was delivered to their table, upon the bun of lies was pork of some kind. Halfway through did my mother realize she was eating pig meat. It is most devastating for her, and she is currently curled up with our family cat, attempting to delve into a new normal of meat in her system, a shock after having gone without it for so long. I never knew that "culinary negligence", on this scale, was a thing. Apparently, it is now. read more
