    This is definitely the spot to go for breakfast or brunch if you are visiting (or living on!) Vashon Island. It's easy to find, easy to park nearby (on the street or in a parking lot around the area). Service was amazing - one person doing everything in the front of the house and let me tell you she was rocking! Thank you! Friendly and smiling, fast and efficient. The place was moderately busy when we came in - it's clearly a local favorite as well as a stop for visitors. We got a selection - we heard they were famous for giant pancakes so one of us tried the indeed enormous plate-sized buttermilk pancake. Also tried the eggs benedict and the biscuits and gravy (we heard those were good). Everything was satisfying and filling. And tasty! The ambience was low key and relaxing. Plenty of space between tables to kick back and enjoy your food and your company. Would go again.

    Philly cheesesteak

    Stopped by Sporty's after a day of shopping, hiking, and exploring Vashon. Sporty's is right on the main strip downtown, very unassuming, I almost missed the entrance. Inside is ample seating, sporty pub-like vibe. We sat at the window and our server came over right away. Food is made fresh, hot, and totally hit the spot! I ordered a philly cheesesteak. Sides you can choose from a fries, potato salad or onion rings. We both wanted to try the potato salad because it's made fresh in house! The server suggested half fries, half potato salad - PERFECT! Our meals really hit the spot! Great service, great food!

    While waiting for the days Yelp event to start I decided to stop by the local watering hole of the island Sportys! Sportys is diner-eque sports bar showing off both when you enter. I wasn't even sure where the entrance was at first as it has one of those solid windowless doors that night clubs and bars have. Emblazoned on the wall is a huge banner for the Seahawks along with a few flatscreens letting you know immediately - you should come here to watch games. There are plenty of tables and a counter fit for a diner as well as bar. I had a few pints and chatted with the waitress/bartender who was very friendly. She promptly brought out the next beer as I ran low along with some ice water. There were a few presumed locals in the bar as well who were chatty as the Olympics were being shown, so the vibe here on a quiet Sunday afternoon was nice. If the entire staff is as nice as the waitress here is, I could see Sporty's being a great spot for drinks and/or breakfast.

    Pancake with egg and sausage special
    Alexis B.

    Got up early while on Vashon and was hungry after a little hike. Sporty's was the only place open in the early am. I didn't realize it was a bar and restaurant! I didn't partake in any spirits, but it looked like Sport's had a great selection of beer, wine, and mixed drinks. It wasn't crowded but several tables were full when I walked in. I was able to grab a seat at the bar and was given a menu right away. I had the special - one pancake, one egg, and one choice of meat. My food came out right away and was what you would expect at a diner. The pancake was light and fluffy and covered the entire plate! My over easy egg was cooked to perfection and the sausage was delicious. Definetly worth the stop if you are looking for breakfast on Vashon.

    Island hash and mimosa

    It was my first time on the Vashon Island so of course, we took it to Yelp to tell us where to eat! We talked to people from the island about where we went to brunch and they told us this is where the locals go! In other words, go here! Dined in and got the Island Hash (corned beef hash) and I was expecting "fancy" corned beef if you know what I mean. My meal came out, I saw it was canned corned beef and the Filipino in me was so happy! LOL. I rarely find Corned Beef Hash this way but when I do, I remember it! I'm glad I came hungry because I cleaned my plate! I got a half order and it was a good amount but I wish I ordered a full so I could've had leftovers. It also came with hashbrowns, eggs and toast. They were good but nothing out of the ordinary. I also got a mimosa and it was yummy! I'm a with-pulp kind of orange juice girl and I'm glad this is what they had!

    ONLY BREAKFAST OPTION BEFORE 9:00 AM ON VASHON. Yes, there are a couple of coffee places, but if you want steak and eggs or pancakes etc., this is pretty much it, especially since the Hardware Store Resturant has been temporarily closed. I'm staying at my in-laws on the island and discovered this place yesterday. The wait staff is friendly and Island locals will quicklyy strike up a conversation with you. The food is pretty good, especially the pancakes which are gigantic! Today I ordered the Pancake Special. Which is one gigantic pancake along with one egg and your choice of sausage. It was delicious, but I was surprised that it only came with one egg. To be fair, the menu DOES say "with egg" not eggs. It was good though. I mean the pancakes are the thing here. They are big fluffy and filling. Yesterday I ordered Steak and Eggs. This does come with 2 eggs and potatoes. I asked for the steak medium rare and came out medium. The server (owner?) asked how it was and I lied and said "fine". Hey I was hungry. It's difficult to expect perfectly cooked steaks from a place like this. For one thing. The cuts are thin, so it's not as easy to get a perfect temperature like you can with one inch. Although not Impossible. Service is slow. They are swamped on Saturday morning and appear to be understaffed. I waited 20 minutes for my order, although my Bloody Mary came out immediately and it was very good. I went back for lunch the following day and ordered their cheeseburger. Very good. it came with a soft bun open and sat on top of the top bun half so you could doctor it up with the pickles tomato and relish they give you on the side. I ordered mine with sautéd onions. I added the pickles, a little relish (sweet relish,) and mustard.They also gave me some mayo but I was not interested in adding it. So kudos for an excellentt custom burger experience. That patty, although thin well seasoned and delicious. So, this place is a sports bar, with like 6 TVs and a full bar. It is actually a delightful combination of a sports bar and diner.You can't go wrong for breakfast and even lunch. The food is well-seasoned and it's really the only game in town for breakfast. So, Good food, good conversation,the place is clean. Howeverer, I will have to deduct a star for sloooooow service. BTW, if you enjoyed my review or found it helpful, funny, or cool, please don't hesitate to click the little button to say so, or better yet, go ahead and friend me. So go on! Press that button, and never miss one of my epic reviews in Seattle and beyond.

    Blueberry pancake, side link sausage and an egg over easy!

    The service was friendly and nice they were busy but still quick and on top of it. The blueberry pancakes are my favorite and they are huge!

    Old school breakfast, yummy!

The cocktails all seem to be named after nautical terms, likely a nod to their island locale. I got the Buoy, which was a tequila-based cocktail with blackberry, Campari, and rosemary. It was quite refreshing. We split the smoked salmon chips and dip, because we both love smoked salmon and Old Bay. This was tasty, but I think a cream cheese dip requires a chip that's sturdier than a potato chip. I ordered the seared ahi and my spouse ordered the burger. We both enjoyed the seared ahi, though I wish it had more of the whipped tahini and harissa. We agreed that the burger was solid, but not the best restaurant burger we've had. We finished with the key lime pie and pot de crème. Recommend both (though maybe avoid the pot de crème if you don't like coffee)!

If you haven't been in a while, go now. We'll definitely be back soon. 5 stars!

Not disappointed on the "Pub Club" it was Yumi! It was full of all the things that make a "Club Sandwich", the kicker was it had "pepper bacon" on it! My sandwich was piled with meat cheese, tomato, and lettuce. Now this is where it gets interesting, I added some of the aforementioned "Fire Breather Sauce" to it, just a bit. It is freakin Habanero Pepper Mayo(ish) sauce, WOW or should I say YEOW! Not just hot but exploding with flavor. As stated, my lunch partner had the "Fire Breather" burger w/ added Pepper Bacon and Avocado. It was more than a mouth full of dripping yum. Meat done perfectly, nice fresh avocado, thick pieces of pepper bacon done to perfection. After seeing and eating the pepper bacon I decided to take home a BLTA with cheddar cheese. The onion rings were some of the best I have had in a while. Beer was cold and wet! Overall, a great meal and you will too. The words of the day today are "Pepper Bacon"
