    Lunch: Turkey and cheese sandwich!
    Bill Z.

    Cool and quaint little cafe! I did the turkey sandwich with chips and a drink. Good stuff! Service was quick and friendly.

    Best spur of the moment decision to have lunch here...Decent array of menu options for breakfast or lunch... The generous serving of beet/kale salad was delicious and filling ( and down the hatch before I snapped a photo! A friend and I each split a bagel with cream cheese and a ham/jalapeño sandwich-fresh and so tasty! Prices are very reasonable and the service friendly. Its a fairly quaint and small space but there is outside seating . The kitchen and floors are sparking clean. Lots of foot traffic ... looking for ice cream, espresso, a cider...and enough take out orders worth mentioning! Close to the Farmers Market, and the waterfront. Parking M-F mighr be a challenge but 2 spots are reserved for takeout! You'll love this little cafe!

    Reuben sandwich

    Holy moly. This is one of the best Reuben sandwiches I've ever eaten. And I'm from New York City. On a quick road trip from Portland to Seattle I was craving a sandwich and this place hit the perfect spot. A must try if you're in the vicinity.

    What you see from Capital Way.
    Rok J.

    Key Lime Pie is my go-to from Sidewalk Cafe on Capital Way just south of the Oly Farmer's Market. Tart & zingy with lime zest giving the filling a boost. Not sugary sweet as is the usual direction most places take their KLP. The lime flavor gets front center stage all to itself, which makes theirs an enjoyable diversion from the saccharine overload incurred by usual pieces of KLP. Pie filling is also not the typical light pudding texture. Rather, this is a dense, nearly cheesecake like filling that makes a slice of this zippy goodness a seriously substantial dessert. Buttery graham cracker crust is standard fare in taste & texture. Price with typical tip comes in a hair over a fiver, so in line with key lime pie I've found elsewhere around the country. But those others lacked the heft of Sidewalk Cafe's pie by a fair margin. The gentleman manning the order window is open and friendly. Maybe someday I will get around to trying some of their other menu options. But I won't be betting any of my key lime pie money on it.

    Ordered avacado bagel on everything bagel added bacon.

    Got the Avacado bagel sandwich and I added bacon. (Solid 10) sausage, patty and cheese bagel sandwich added bacon. (Solid 10) both sandwiches were om everything bagel. The soup of the day was split peas and ham soup. I was hesitant because it wasn't my favorite soup but I figured I tried it out and omg this my favorite soup. Veggies were chopped in soup and great pieces of ham in the soup. I rate this soup 10. Clam chowder was pretty good, I rate it 9.5 ..

    Avocado Bagel with egg and bacon

    The best bagel sandwich ever!! Perfect for breakfast and lunch. The service is also so fast and great!

    Salami grander sandwich and a cup of clam chowder :)
    Catalina G.

    Me and a group of friends came from out of town and wanted a good sandwich place and this place hit the spot! I got the salami grinder and a cup of clam chowder. I'd give the sandwich a solid 10/10 and the chowder a 7/10 :) both very good!!

    So I've lived less than five minutes from this place for 11 years, and somehow it never caught my…read moreeye. Then I saw their TikTok last night, and let me tell you, that video had me craving it instantly. The scrumptiousness was living rent free in my brain all night, so today my son and I had to stop in and see what the hype was about. We ordered the Sour Diesel, the Fire, and the Afgoo, all on their toasted jalapeño cheese bread. First of all, the female employee who helped us was so friendly and welcoming. We do not eat out much, so we were genuinely excited and maybe a little impatient to try them. When they handed us the sandwiches, I immediately noticed how heavy they were. And the smell in the car on the way home, oh my goodness. Pure torture waiting to unwrap them. Then we got home and opened them up, and I was honestly shocked in the best way. There was actually a MEAL on that bread. Not one of those sad sandwiches that's 80 percent lettuce and air. These were loaded. My teenage son even commented on how good his was, and trust me, teen approval is not handed out lightly. The portions were generous, the flavors were bold, and each sandwich was totally unique and delicious. I can confidently say I have found a new favorite sub spot. Total hidden gem if you love a good sandwich that actually fills you up and tastes incredible. I did not grab a shake this time because it was freezing outside, but after seeing all the flavor options on the menu, I will absolutely be trying one next visit. Highly recommend in every aspect. I love when you try somewhere new and it completely exceeds expectations. This one is a must try.

    Cool cafe with pretty mid food…read more The ambiance inside is really relaxing; plenty of comfortable seating with plenty of plants around to make a warm and inviting space. The cafe is attached to a store, but that doesn't really affect the cafe all that much. The tablecloths used have a tendency to slide around very easily. We got the tempe blt panini and tempeh Ruben panini with their fries. The fries and ketchup were the best tasting item. You can add extras to the sandwiches, but that gets pretty pricey pretty fast. I added on avocado for $2, which was left off my sandwich so be sure to check that your food is correct. They did give me a small cup of avocado when I went up to the front, but I unfortunately did not notice it was missing until I had already eaten half of my sandwich. The food itself was a bit greasy. Not too overwhelming, but enough that it affected the meal. The sandwiches are pretty small, but filling enough for a lunch sized portion. Beyond food, everything else is self service (water, napkins, utensils). Not bad unless you have limited mobility, then it will be difficult to maneuver around the tables to the small cramped corner that everything else is located. When a gentleman asked the staff if they would bring him a fork (needed assistance walking), the staff only pointed again where the utensils were located before walking away.
