    OG Grilled Cheese
    Megan S.

    I'm a regular climber so it's nice to have a place that closes relatively late at a decent price point! I'm not a huge fan of grilled cheeses so honesty I would probably not get this again. That being said, it was a pretty good grilled cheese that was crispy on the outside and very gooey inside! The pickle was really good too - crunchy, not TOO sour, and cuts through the richness of the cheese very nicely. The workers are also very nice and laid back! Would totally come here again.

    Great selection of beers & food options (plus lots of healthy and vegan/vegetarian/gluten free items!) I had a slice of vegan pizza with pineapple, jalapeño, and red onion. Didn't even miss the cheese because the toppings were plentiful, sauce was tasty, and the crust was thin yet crispy!

    Food quality: delicious. I have had coffee here several times, and today I finally tried their avocado toast. All great. Price: absolutely overpriced. $1 for alt milk??? $6.5 for a thin slice of avocado toast??? Let alone the RX bar that's priced higher than regular retail price. Downside: no skim milk/soy milk available for alt milk; they stopped serving meat. Service: alright. Took a while to get my avocado toast. **Note: they no longer have happy hour price for guac & chips.

    This cafe is located downstairs in the climbing gym. You don't need a day pass to get in and they serve food coffee and beer! They have a constantly rotating selection of local beers, ciders, and wine. But it's important to note that there's no drinking and climbing so after you order a beer they mark you with a band. They also have an espresso machine which closes at 5 but they also have cold brew on draft. Their food is funky. It's not my favorite so I don't eat here of what I've had is definitely a creative take on cuisine. Chicken and jackfruit burrito, carrot ginger soup, and artisan pizza by the slice. The room is really big and the furniture just as big. There are plentiful plug ins so you can meet up here for homework, boardgames, or just about anything.

    Great environment, great food, and a very friendly staff. The West Wall Bar is back open at the Seattle Bouldering Project. A fresh vegetarian/vegan menu with lots of healthy options. Don't miss the OG grilled cheese sandwich or the veggie flat bread.

    Feels like a secret getaway! Good food. OK Coffee. Nice staff. Open Late. I come here from time to time for a few hours of away-from-the-office work time, and am usually in the company of quite a few other laptop-loungers in addition to customers of the wall climbing gym. The location is, frankly, bizarre. The climbing gym is in a huge but totally unmarked warehouse along a part of Ranier most of us drive past at high speed. The cafe is in the basement of the Seattle Bouldering Project. You have to enter the SBP main lobby, pass the front desk, turn right, go down the stairs and make a left turn to get to the bunker level cafe. Then, voila! There's a spacious, well-lit, modernesque space waiting for you. Based on a few earlier reviews I cavalierly waltzed in for my first few visits... but on my 3rd visit I was stopped and asked to identify myself at the front desk. Do I really look so unlikely to be on my way to some wall climbing class? Sigh. Anyway, I was asked to fill out a liability waiver and sign away my life to accept of the risks of wall climbing before they'd allow me to enter the premises even though I didn't want to climb. A minor hassle I suppose. But one you won't encounter at most cafes. The five cafe tables along the curved wall have outlets, as do 5 or 6 stools at the bar area. Lots to eat and drink. Coffee snobs: the espresso is, in my opinion, either burned or using a roast that is *way* too dark. That said, its flaws are not for lack of careful preparation. After a few experiments, I stick to drip coffee and tea now. The avocado toast, trendy as it may be, is totally delicious. The crispy garlic bits were a huge hit. Plenty to choose from for extended stays.

    Oreo Latte

    Hidden. Modern. Unique. Delicious. I had a great first experience here! I got lost trying to find the place, but learned it was downstairs inside the Seattle Bouldering Project - indoor rock climbing place. I wanted to try some good coffee. Ordered the oreo latte and it was on fleek! This bar is more than a cafe. It has several beers on tap, some great foods, great coffee menu, and plenty of space to sit. There are long wooden community tables with brnches and several single, two-seater tables. The bar blends really well with the indoor rock climbing place. Its modern, chique, and competed with other cafe bars in the Seattle area. This isn't your ordinary coffee shop. It has a little bit of everything. Kind of reminds me of the Mr. West coffee shop where theres coffee and happy hour drinks. Will come here again!

    It's kind of weird how much I dig these grilled cheese.

    I rarely leave one-star reviews because I usually choose places I genuinely enjoy--but this…read moreexperience was beyond irritating and disappointing. This used to be one of my favorite spots at Pike Market. For years, I made it a tradition to bring out-of-town guests here. Over time, I have brought more than 100 people here. It had a charming, warm, and welcoming feel--like a hidden gem in the city. It oozed with kindness and fun. Unfortunately, that has completely flipped! Since the new manager, Anthony, took over, the entire atmosphere has shocked me. What was once inviting now is rigid, cold, and unwelcoming. The biggest issue, however, was the way I was treated. The interaction felt unnecessarily rude and dismissive, which was both surprising and disappointing given my long history with this place. Great establishments are built not just on food or ambiance, but on how people are treated--and that piece is clearly missing now. It's especially unfortunate because the rest of the team still shows glimpses of what this place used to be. Jordon, was genuinely kind and pleasant, but one positive interaction couldn't outweigh the manager's miserable attitude. It's hard to see a place that once felt so special lose its charm like this. I know the winemaker Paul is a great person - so it is hard to leave such a terrible review, but at the same time, if this was my place -- I would want to know what was happening behind the scenes at my establishment. I truly hope leadership reflects on how customer experience is being handled moving forward. Don't give money to places that have toxic attitudes and are joy crushers! Life is too short and far too precious! In the meantime, there are many nearby spots that consistently deliver both quality and incredible hospitality. Skip this place, and instead go to Browne Family Vineyards Tasting Room, The Lonely Siren, The Pink Door, Place Pigalle, or Maximilien. Those places are working very hard to create an exceptional experience!

    What a delectable meal after a 4 hour bus ride Came here…read moreafter dropping off our bags at the hotel, since it was just a 5 minute walk away. We came in around 1:45pmish and it wasn't crowded. They had an amazing selection of pastries, though I didn't try any. I got their Caramelized Banana Latte to satisfy my sweet tooth, and it wasn't too banana-flavored nor too sweet; the black sesame in it balanced it nicely. I also got the Urban Pesto, which was SO yum. I was little skeptical of the focaccia - sometimes I find it to be too puffy, and thus hard to eat the sandwich - but this had a lovely panini press on it that made it easy to eat. The in-house herby cheese in the sandwich made each bite just that much more delicious. The staff was also super nice and accommodating to my parents' requests and questions. Can't wait to come back to try their other food and bev options!

I appreciated that this location has both spacious indoor and outdoor seating. Despite being busy, this was not packed with ample seating still available and not cramped. Nice chill vibe with good music, healthy foliage and pleasant indoor decor, with a reasonable unidirectional service line. Tempting pastry case with savory and sweet choices, the usual bevs, as well as, cocktails. Vibrant place to visit solo or meetups with others. The 16oz iced mokka (mocha) I had was well crafted. Both counter folks were personable and welcoming. I was able to sit at a two top and remain cool during my brief visit on that hot Tuesday early afternoon. They've been an indie (Cafe Hagen/Freya) that has expanded to many locations: here in SLU, two on Queen Anne, downtown on 5th, at Dexter, the Waterfront, Freya in Pike Place Market and Nordic Museum in Ballard, plus sites over in Bellevue and Kirkland. Support local!
