Breakfast sandwich
Kim N.

Was craving a bagel after my long run and so glad I came here! This was SUCH a good bagel. The person who took my order was super nice as well. Will definitely be back here to try their other stuff and a coffee next time

Ye ol neighborhood stop. Service? Excellent Ambiance? Superior (walk up window) Food? Great. I had a veggie sando and it was delish aside from one very specific seasoning that Ive had before but don't know what it is and do not like. (Not their fault.)

Sausage egg and cheese sandwich
Joey K.

16oz latte and a sausage egg and cheese sandwich for $20. Latte was good, not special in and sandwich was not good at all. Service was good. Im sure the other food is good but value isn't there for me. Approx $8 latte and $12 sandwich.

Everything bagel sandwich with bacon and mayo! Delicious!
Alison B.

The people that work here are so nice!!! Bagel breakfast sandwich was amazing and it's a cute little walk up restaurant! Loved it. Will definitely be back!

I was actually really excited to try this place, especially their breakfast egg sandwich with "the works" but was really upset to see that the only part they added was the sauce. It was fine, but i'm definitely not just an egg and meat sandwich kind of person and really would've liked to try it the way I ordered. We had to get to the ferry so I didn't think to check my sandwich since the bag was specially labeled.

Service is always nice here. Great loading area for the order and pick up. There are a lot of outdoor bistro seating as well if you just wanted to grab the bite there. And they keep a bowl of water out for the dogs

PNW Smoked Salmon Bagel

Loved this place that was 5 min drive from our bnb, my boyfriend liked it so much we went back 2 days in a row. He got their strawberry lemonade and breakfast sandwich on a croissant. I got a honey lavender latter which was pretty good, the smoked salmon bagel that came with dill creme cheese, cucumbers and pickled red onions which was pretty good. The second time, I had got the Henderson hash which was so good and bigger portion than I expected. I wish it had a little more dressing but it was pretty good after I had added hot sauce, salt and pepper

A delightful spot to stumble upon while visiting Seattle. Even with a line forming, the staff kept things moving quickly and efficiently, making the wait short and pleasant. There's charming outdoor seating right out front--perfect for enjoying a coffee while people-watching or soaking up some fresh air. I tried the seasonal vanilla bean foam cold brew, and it was excellent: smooth, well-balanced, and not overly sweet. Definitely worth a stop for both the coffee and the friendly atmosphere.

The Birdhouse is a clutch spot. Great customizable options for breakfast and lunch items. Very fresh food and great coffee. The bagel sandwich was huge so I had to deconstruct a bit. They also have pastry options like muffins, cookies and such. There are so tables to sit outside, no inside seating. Just a friendly neighborhood spot.

Bagel sans avocado
Mike R.

Great breakfast bagels. However, they got our order wrong, and we ended up paying the $3.00 surcharge for avocado even though it wasn't put the bagel. This is frustrating because it's primarily a takeout place and we live quite a ways away from this establishment.

Firebird on cheddar bagel. 5 stars
Cora L.

The Firebird bagel sandwich was a tasty, spicy, savory delight with all kinds of textures! The creamy avocado oozing with every bite is the kind of joy I needed in my life today. The Farmhouse was a solid turkey sandwich with a generous portion of meat. Very filling. The Cardi B Good was delicious; not overly sweet but with plenty of cardamom flavor. I'm happy! Will be back.

$5.52 for a plain 12 oz Americano? It was good but at that price I won't be returning.

The ice cream from tip top is good. First you choose a fruit to add in, then a topping, and in a cup or cone. I got the seasonal flavor, which is avocado, with salted caramel topping.

There are several tables and seats along the window for hanging out.

We arrived and was able to finding a parking spot as there is only a few spaces for parking. There are a few tables and chairs outside of the store. We entered and were greeted by the employees in a professional manner. There is quite a lot of seating and tables around, and even a long table with chairs that had crayons and coloring books to enjoy. I love that they seem to support local brands from food, drinks, alcohol, snacks, and much more. They seem to have specials every month for a sandwich and drink which I always love to see. They offer sandwiches, breakfast sandwiches, breakfast tacos, coffee, tea, alcohol, and ice cream! The prices are pretty fair from what we could see. Additionally, they seem to host events such as weekly food truck pop ups! They had dog treats at the counter and a dog water bowl outside their door so they seem to be dog friendly as well! We were able to get our ice cream: I got the blackberry with sweet cream base with rainbow sprinkles while my boyfriend got the blueberry ice cream with sweet cream base with chocolate sprinkles. The ice cream was so smooth and had the perfect amount of flavor where it doesn't taste artificial or too sweet. It was just perfect. Our friends who love close by rave about it too and shared that they enjoy the fresh foods too. Definitely excited to stop by again!

The pasta was amazingly tender, cooked to perfection. There was a lot of flavor and depth in each bite, more of a deliciously earthy mac and cheese as opposed to maybe a velveety smooth creamy type. The Jalapeño poppers were amazing. I've always associated poppers with a crusted fried topping but these were bold, going in a different direction. The jalapeños were fresh and soft to the bite, easy to cut with the side of a fork, loaded with components such as cashew cheddar, crema, avocado sauce, sweet pickled jalapeños, pico and cabbage slaw - all coming together perfectly in each bite (i'm utilizing their menu description) For the main dish, Sandi ordered the "Smokey Barbecue" which came with a complimentary side of chips and I ordered the Portobello French Dip and upgraded my side to a Side Salad for an extra $4. Each dish, every bite was delicious, even something as simple as a side salad was elevated with their Ginger Tahini dresing. Dipping the Portobello Sandwich into the Dip was just .. magical. We also both opted for the same drink, South Park Mule. The drink was legit, in addition to tasting great, I actually had a buzz as well .. indicating to me they didn't skimp on the adult juice Their food is amazing across the board and there's so much more to go back and try! Definitely worth the trip!!

Loved the portobello french dip sandwich! Lots of shrooms, cooked perfectly and very well seasoned…read more My spouse said the barbecue sandwich made with tempeh was good but not great. My friend very much enjoyed the tofu bahn you. Although we all really enjoyed the nachos, they were not what I expected. I expected cashew cheese sauce that was cheesy tasting. It was very different from that but tasted great. The lentils and tomatos were very well seasoned. They are not spicy but are yummy. The kale salad was good but I have had a better vegan one in SF. The service was friendly but slow. On the plus side, there was zero pressure to rush. I look forward to going here again when I am next in town. I want to try the mac and cheese and one of their pretty cocktails.
