They are coming up on their first decade next summer. The cafe decor also held up pretty well, including the large glass fixture from the ceiling. Seattle Sunshine Coffee also outlived Ventoux that I had mentioned in my prior post. The barista and I compared my 2016 stamp card to the current design, just had a few slight different nuances. This indie cafe had folks onsite, but not packed. There was still room available whether seated along the sidewalk, main seating area, or the upstairs mezzanine. Some convos to be had, but most of the cafe clientele were on their laptops or reading. Pastry case was well stocked with the wholesale variety from Macrina, plus the usual bevs and cafe fare. I enjoyed my near two hour onsite visit. The only thing I wished is that I had brought a hoodie. The AC was jacked up. and of course, I had savored an iced mocha. Hopefully my next cafe detour won't take nine years though between visits.

The service is attentive and nice. The coffee is tasty and smooth. We all ordered an oatmilk latte, we'd rate 4.5/5.

When we arrived we were treated to a few samples to narrow down our drinking choices. I appreciate that and the bar tender provided good advice on the selection. I stuck with Ride the Tide IPA, others had a milkshake, Fruit Peddler GF sour, with no complaints. They have a full food menu which is preferred over food truck scenarios. We shared crispy brussel sprouts then went on to have a fish and chips, classic burger, and portobello mushroom burger and garlic fries. All were good. I'd definitely get the fish and chips again, and the mushroom burger looked delicious with a legit amount of mozzarella cheese oozing out around the edges. It looked great, but I didn't taste it. Definitely recommend!

The setting was perfect on an unexpectedly…read morewarm March day, and drinking our beers outside overlooking the beautiful bay waters was a nice change (we had flown in from Maine). I especially enjoyed the undertow dark lager. Our favorite meal was the portobello mushroom sandwich - full of flavor. My seafood taco was meh - needed lots of spice and some slaw. The onion rings were fresh and hot, but the breading was so thick that they were not particularly delicious- my son said they were really onion hush puppies - just too heavy...onion rings should be very lightly breaded so that the onion is the star of the dish. The fries were fresh and garlicky but not crispy enough.

It's located in the same spot after many decades in Seattle's Wedgwood neighborhood. Since there's several cafes along this stretch of 35th NE, as point of reference, it's two doors south of Wedgwood Broiler. It shares a huge parking lot and adjacent to a Metro bus route. It had a nice autumn hue from the overhead lighting and interior decor. The local art for sale adorning the walls was a nice added touch. Upbeat, welcoming staff. It was full right at noon and brisk walk-in takeout traffic. Nice overhead music to chill, dine, and/or do laptop stuff. They offer the usual bev menu, as well as, breakfast & lunch items, soups, salads, modest pastry case (from Alki Bakery), merch, and coffee roasts from Zoka. The 16oz mocha was well crafted temp wise & good balance of espresso, steamed milk, and chocolate. I also opted for the roast beef panini without the horseradish. Generously filled with roast beef, havarti, mayo, and red onion on savory focaccia. It was provided with au jus and I selected potato salad versus chips. The au jus was not salty, so after dipping, I also sipped the hot broth. Very flavorful and filling. The other panini half I'll have to take home. Thanks to fellow Yelp Elite All Star, Will L for a compelling post. This was a pleasant detour for lunch.

A friend of mine invited me for lunch, and we popped by there around noon. It wasn't too crowded, with ample seating, even for a place that's pretty small. The staff were very warm and friendly, and even joked with us a bit. Beyond the food, we had a good time hanging there. My friend suggested the vegan sandwiches, specifically the Turkey Firehouse. It was delicious! Van Gogh is now on the list of local lunch spots to hit!

The outside is very unassuming and I you wouldn't guess there was a decent establishment but you walk inside and you are immediately greeted. The person at the register is ready to take your order. There were quite a bit of options! I don't know why but I didn't expect that. I decided to get a Brown Sugar with milk since that's my favorite and it was good! Nice and sweet with not too much ice. The inside is small but they did alright with the space available. There was a little video game corner that I was tempted to stay and mess around with but I was busy. I'm interested in what the other menu options are like and am likely to return!

Grateful Bread is a nice neighborhood spot in Wedgewood across the street from Top Pot Donuts, serving as a bakery and cafe.

The sandwiches were great and included Romaine lettuce, tomato, cucumber (with skin on), red onion, mayonnaise, and spicy dijon mustard. A totally tasty sandwich!!

They do have a restroom, plenty of seating outside, kinda limited seating inside. They do have a wide array of offerings. I got the spinach and feta quiche with a strawberry matcha. The spinach quiche was really good. I thoroughly enjoyed that. My strawberry matcha was not too sweet (I usually ask for everything half sweet and did not this time). The staff were friendly. Prices are reasonable for this day and age. I sat outside and enjoyed the sun! It's a great place to hang out, probably not great for groups unless you sit outside. Dogs are not allowed inside, so tie them up or have a buddy watch them while you go inside. Parking is street or under an apartment complex near by. Not sure if you pay or validate inside those apartment retail parking garages because I parked along the side streets. Park Mobile is the app you use to pay for parking. I paid about $4 ish for an hour. Overall, if I'm in the area and got the time to hangout, it's a cute place to do so.
