This is a no frills, quick food place. You order at the kiosk and then pick up your food at the counter. There's really no service since you clear the table yourself as well. Not sure if they had a water station but I didn't see it. The food is good, warm and perfectly cooked. Lots of flavor! Plus cheese and butter... omg! If you're looking for something quick and tasty close to the waterfront, this place is perfect. read more

Cute place. The smell is amazing when you walk in. Smells like fresh bread. The menu is small, 5 or 6 boats and that's all. Seating is limited. You order at the register (no menus) and find a seat yourself. We had to look for someone who was leaving and scout their table. If you don't want to fight for a table, you can take it to go. Limited drink options. My bottle of OJ was $5, so like the rest of Seattle, a bit pricey. We had the basic egg boat and the beef stroganoff. The food was really good. I would definitely come back if I'm here again. read more

Why did it take me so long to discover khachapuri?! Honestly, what could be better than a bread boat filled with cheese, it's divine! Skalka is a cute cafe open close to the Seattle waterfront... a great choice if you are down visiting the great wheel. They offer the ability to order ahead so you don't have to wait, which is nice as all their breads are cooked fresh to order. It will be piping hot when you get there. You can go with a plain egg and cheese, but my favorite was the stroganoff. Though, you can't go wrong with any option. This is perfect comfort food for a cool fall or rainy winter day. read more

Cool to have cuisine like this near the market. Nice, bright interior. Ordering system is just a kiosk up at the bar where you order your meal and pick it up when ready. They have limited drinks here; just plain coffee, soda, OJ, and water. Would be nice to have an espresso machine and some more coffee or tea options, honestly. That would kick this place to the next level. We enjoyed our Lobiani boat, though would recommend getting some extra pickles and grabbing a bottle of hot sauce. Would like to come again and try the other boats to compare! read more

Skalka serves khachapuri, a Georgian cheesy bread boat that's a fantastic mix between a calzone and a bread bowl. The dough is like pizza crust filled with cheese and a runny egg yolk, which adds a rich flavor, though you can ask for it cooked if you prefer. I tried both the veggie and chicken khachapuri, and they were both delicious. The chicken khachapuri features tomatoes and fresh herbs, while the veggie version includes eggplants, red bell peppers, tomatoes, and fresh herbs. The dish offers a perfect balance of hearty bread and flavorful filling. The service at Skalka was friendly and efficient, and the ordering system was straightforward. The ambiance was casual and inviting, making it a pleasant spot for a meal. We went for brunch and easily found a seat, but it might be busier earlier in the day. Something to Note - There's no nearby parking, so be prepared to find a spot a bit further away. read more

Khachapuri is not quite like a pizza or flatbread. It is like a bread bowl of meat, cheese, and egg yolk. It is very heavy, not for the faint of heart. You can break the egg yolk and mix it with the meat and cheese. Eat the filling by itself or with the bread bowl. Either way, you will feel satisfied and food coma'ed afterwards. read more

This was a really nice treat! We've never had Georgian cuisine before, but enjoyed this. These are eaten by ripping off a piece of the outer bread and dipping it into the filling. Both were terrific, but we enjoyed the veggie one slightly more than the beef stroganoff one. As far as service, you order at an iPad and pick up at the counter, so there isn't much interaction. Ambiance is simple, plastic chairs and slightly outdated decor. But the food is good! read more

One of my favorite spots everytime I come down to visit Seattle during the Emerald city comic con. Visited here for lunch on a Monday afternoon and ordered the veggie boat because they sold out of the chicken and stroganoff boat. There wasn't a wait and I was able to order right away and waited only 10 mins. It did not disappoint. It came out piping hot and the eggplant was very flavorful and pairs well with the bread cheese and eggs. This will always be one of my go tos in Seattle. read more

This place was very cute and had delicious food. The portion is massive and easily could be shared. The bread was hot and crisp, perfect for dipping into the egg and cheese. The chicken reminded me of shakshuka and mixing it all together was great. I could only eat half and everyone I was with had leftovers. The only downside is that it would all be soggy if I got it to go. Overall delicious! read more

Our first time visiting Seattle and found Skalka on some foodie Instagram pages. It looked so intriguing and yummy I had to come check it out! I love yolky eggs, so I was super excited to try! The place is self serve, so you order from the kiosk and enter your phone number so they could text you when it's ready. Then you could find a table if you're dining in. Limited seating, but we were able to snag a table on a Friday afternoon. We got the Chicken boat, Lobiani boat, and cold pressed orange juice. My bf really liked his chicken boat and said it reminded him of a breakfast pizza LOL. He devoured it!!! The Lobiani boat had beans, pickled chilis, and bacon! Soooo good!!! And that yolky egg, perfection! The bread was so soft and fresh. The portions fill you up; I had to grab a to-go box from the self serve counter. (My bf ate my leftovers that night LOL) The cold press oj from the bottle was also so refreshing! We would definitely come back to Skalka the next time we're back! Ugh, I'm really craving some right now!!! read more

I've been to Skalka several times for their delicious and filling handmade khachapuri (bread boats) which makes for a cozy and bright breakfast option by the Seattle waterfront. When you first enter this shop, you'll be amazed by how homey and light filled it is which automatically will put anyone in a better mood! Additionally their khachapuri comes out steaming and delicious! My favorite one is the stroganoff which comes with beef, egg, and mushrooms since it's savory and packed with so much flavor. The bread comes out soft and hot with generous portions holding up all the delicious stroganoff filling. You could even share one bread boat with two people but I was starving yesterday and devoured one by myself! Highly recommend this for anyone who's in the area at the waterfront because it's a solid breakfast option! read more

Might take a bit of time if you go during weekday lunch. The filling is delicious and the pickles, egg yolk, cheese and beef all go really well together to make a good blend of flavors. Last time I went was 2 years ago and the quality has gone a bit down since though- it's more bread and less filling. The bread is soft and well-baked however- the ratio was just a bit off to me when I went and i ended up leaving half the crust. Considering the location and ingredients price seems decently fair to me. One is a good portion size- enough to fill one person, or a snack for two people. I recommend getting one for each person and sharing to taste. Also easy to take to go and eat on the pier but the interior is also clean and pretty and nice enough to stay in and enjoy. read more

For breakfast on a Sunday morning, before heading home after a long weekend in Seattle, my husband and I came to Skalka. It was walking distance from our hotel, and when we arrived, the place was packed! They are currently operating under a self-service ordering model - you walk up to a kiosk and place your order at the front counter. You can then wait for your food and grab a seat. It was all a little confusing, but once we figured it out, the rest was smooth sailing. My biggest qualm was that people were hawking tables without having received their food so that when our food did arrive, we were left there standing with nowhere to sit. Other than that, the food itself was absolutely delicious and I cannot recommend it enough. You can tell they put a lot of love and care into their product and it shows. The bread was so fresh and the melted cheese with the egg just screamed comfort food. This is definitely the type of spot that I will return to every time I am in Seattle because the food is that good. read more

First time going to skalka cafe and it did not disappoint!!! Such a cute spot close by the Seattle waterfront which is great for a walk afterwards The size of the Khachapuri was so big that you can definitely share it with another person. The bread was so fluffy inside and went well with the filling and the nice runny egg. Also get their hot sauce on the side!! It's sooo good and goes so well with the breading. I could be eat just bread and sauce and I'll be happy LOL. Out of the two khachapuri we got, we definitely liked the chicken one better compared to beet one. It was so much more flavorful and a nice balance between the cheese and egg. read more

This is a cute restaurant and a unique experience! I've never had khachapuri before and I love the idea of a bread boat filled with eggs and veggies. Overall, I enjoyed it but wasn't blown away. Mine looked better than it tasted--it could have been saltier or had more of a tomatoey flavor in the veggies. The bread was pretty thick which was fun for using it to dip but there was probably more bread than filling. I don't love the kiosk ordering system and all of the plates and utensils being disposable. read more

Skalka - Veggie Boat - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Have you tried Khachapuri before? Skalka in Downtown Seattle specializes in a traditional Georgian dish called Khachapuri. Just imagine a soft yet chewy bread boat filled with all sorts of flavorful ingredient combinations, like cheese, egg, chicken ragu and more. We tried the: - Beef Stroganoff - Veggie - Chicken - Lobiani Our favorite was the Lobiani with the banana peppers, bacon and red beans. The sweetness from the red beans and the tartness from the peppers makes for a rich and flavorful dip! You'll also notice that there are just forks at the tables as the Khachapuri crust is meant to be torn by hand. If you're visiting Downtown and the Pike Place Market area, head on over to Skalka for a unique and tasty meal! read more

Thank you Yelpers this one was bc of you!!! My friends and I were traveling to Seattle and we needed to pick some good places to eat. None of us had been there before so I checked Yelp for some help. Skalka had great reviews and the pictures were great so we went here for breakfast. It was so good , we all said we would travel there just for their food lol . Between us we ordered the cheese, chicken and the vegetable and all of us agree that it couldn't get any better . The staff was very nice , we asked where they originated from and the worker gave us a little history on them. It really is like a breakfast pizza with hand made and hand pulled dough . I had the cheese and asked for an extra egg . read more

Love the food, HATE the terrible cheap self checkout process where they make you do all of the work and then want you to tip or feel like you receive service. It's poor taste, unfortunately we avoid this place because the lines with this honestly awful self check out experience make it a nightmare and the food overpriced. The food would be proved fine if it came with service but it doesn't seem like Skalka respects their customers whatsoever. Poor experience, poor service, and because of this the food is also rated LOW. read more

HOLY CRAP! I'm visiting from out of state and stumbled upon this lil place. I cannot bring to explain how this food tastes. It was easily my favorite meal I had in Seattle. It's a self serve Kiosk and took about 15mins to get my food. I had nothing better to do so I had no problem waiting. Get there early because people start to pour in around 9:30-10am. Limited seating because of that reason. Definitely a large portion. You get what you pay for! I couldn't finish it! read more

I've never had bread boats before but were intrigued by how they looked so I finally gave Skalka a try, and it tastes even better than it looks! The filling is very flavorful and the bread is the perfect toughness that gives it a good chewy textures and pairs perfectly with the filling. It is actually super filling and one bread bowl was more than enough for me. The restaurant itself is also very cute and cozy, and nicely located near the Seattle waterfront! read more

Wow. One of the best things I've ever eaten and could go on about this place for a long time; If you visit Seattle, you have to try this place! Went on a Wednesday morning around 10am and was pretty much able to order as soon as we entered. Ordering is through a tablet so staff can focus on making the khachapuri. Waited about 15 minutes for the dish to come out. I got the veggie boat without the egg yolk. The bread is incredibly soft, still has flavor and is a perfect vehicle for the inner boat. The veggie filling is flavorful and tomatoey. The cheese is flavorful, melty and soft. The ratio of filling to bread is just right. It's such a filling dish, it can definitely be split between 2 meals. A perfect dish, chef's kiss! read more

I came here for the first time a few weeks ago. I've never had khachapuri before. This was a great introduction! When we walked in, I was surprised that there was no one at the counter, and one ordering screen. There was only one group ahead of me, though, so the ordering process went smoothly and didn't take too long. I think it may be beneficial to have at least one person at the counter, in case people have questions. Luckily, I didn't have any at the time. We ordered one beef stroganoff boat. It was big enough for me and my husband to share. We sat by the window and saw the ferris wheel as we noshed on our food. Good times. So the stroganoff part was delicious. Meaty, mushroomy, and it even had pickles on top. I thought the presence of pickles was weird at first, but soon learned that their nice crunchy tang balanced the richness of the rest of the dish. The egg and cheese side was honestly a bit boring in flavor. It needed something... salt? Spices? I don't know. Texture was good though, and we ended up mixing it all up anyway to make a wonderful dip for the yummy fresh bread. We looked for a hot sauce. All they had was a sriracha made by Tabasco, which is surprisingly good on its own, but it did not go with the stroganoff. Maybe a hot sauce like harissa would be nice. Or just chili flakes. I'd love to come back to try some other flavors. Also, apparently you can get a free coffee with a Yelp Check-In... I didn't realize that last time, but I will try it next time! read more

Just a warning ; they have recently switched to a self ordering system . I walked in and was a little confused because I thought there was going to be service as a waiter. The guy working the back gave amazing service though and was patient with me and showed me through the menu but If this is your first time , it would be a little confusing ( like mine ). The food is super delicious! The cheese and the egg mixture was amazing. It had a side of butter too. The bread was fluffy and awesome.

I finally got a chance to check out Skalka and we really enjoyed our meal! We got the stroganoff and the chicken, both being delicious and filling! Skalka has plenty of seating, but a lot of it was taken when we visited on a Sunday around noon; many people ended up taking their food to-go, which sounds like a great option when the weather is nice outside. Skalka is towards the southern part of Pike Place Market and the waterfront; pretty close to the Harbor City Steps apartment complex with street parking and various garages and lots nearby. The service was very friendly, but my only wish was that the service was slightly faster. When we ordered from the tablet in the front, there was a sign saying the service could take up to 30 minutes, and in our case it did. There were a handful of customers going up to the counter to check the status of their orders, telling us that they were waiting a while too. I say check out Skalka if you're looking for these delicious bread boats around Seattle, and be sure to build in time into your schedule to wait a little bit. read more

Always wanted to try this place and finally made it! The 'khachapuri' , which looks like a breakfast pizza, was very yummy! The place felt a little sterile after the pandemic with self ordering kiosk, water station, etc. Although there weren't really any 'services' since you order yourself and you pick the food from the counter, but the tables weren't being cleaned quickly so it is available for the next guest. Ordered the Lobiani with red beans which was great. Looking forward to coming back for the Veggie since the eggplant looks amazing on my friend's plate :). Wish there was more drink options. But they had drip coffee, orange juice and canned soda. read more

I finally was able to try Skalka after hearing so many great things about it! This a great local spot run by a mother-and-daughter duo. They were so sweet and kind. There is a decent amount of seating for customers. They are open until 7pm but after 6:30pm they only do take-out. I was able to try the Chicken Boat and the Lobiani Boat. The chicken boat is sooo flavorful and rich. This one was my personal favorite. The lobiani boat is delicious as well but the flavors are mild and subtle. I appreciate that for take out they put a cup over the egg yolk to make sure it was fresh. The best part paired with the flavorful fillings was the bread!! The bread is so soft and perfectly baked! Just the bread alone is delicious. I highly recommend trying Skalka if you are ever in the area!!! read more

I am beyond glad we stumbled upon this place! We were nearby experiencing a tomb raider escape room and we stopped here for lunch. What a cute and interesting little place. We loved the Georgia artifacts and artwork that cemented the ethnicity of this family. It's a small menu, with only 5 choices and it's a self service ordering system so the service is a bit DIY. It's a long wait, but you know that going in and you pick up your own food from the counter. Very good, delicious food and we were all impressed. read more
