Our hotel recommended this little diner. If they hadn't of we would have by-passed it and that would have been a mistake. I had great fish and chips. The rest of our group had breakfast and we were all very pleased with our selection. Good food and a very reasonable price! A little gem in downtown Seattle.

This is my and my wife's "go to" place for breakfast every time we stay in downtown Seattle (which is about 1-2 times a year). It's even better if you've got a hangover and need some greasy breakfast food, without it being greasy. The food is typical diner food, but prepared quickly and the meal size is generous. The server... More

A typical brunch-style restaurant offering typical American food with reasonable price. The location is down the street with a small entrance door, but the decorations inside are unique and interesting. The service was average.

There was nothing wrong with this place at all. The price was good, and the waitress made me feel right at home. Had the Bacon Cheeseburger and it was to die for! Come visit this place. You won't be disappointed.

Our hotel told us about this place and they were right! It is a diner that makes you feel like something you would see in the moives around the 60's! It is a Mom and daughter place that makes you feel at home. The food is great,the amount of food is huge and the prices are small! What else could... More

There are few solid breakfast spots in the Pioneer Square neighborhood of downtown Seattle. Plenty of "cafes" if you want coffee and a pastry, but if you hanker for a good solid breakfast to see you through the day, this is the spot. The decor is pure diner; clean, colorful and very family friendly.

Loved the quirky atmosphere and the service. We were there in September waiting for our Segway tour to begin. Fun and yummy. Reasonable price. A place you could imagine that they would know your name and what you usually asked for after a few times visiting.
