Classic Seattle placew
Friday, February 03, 2006
I'm with Brad on this one, I kind of like places that are this eclectic. There is "corporate coffee" down the street at an immaculate Starbucks, so go there if you want ever smiling service.
Personally, I agree that the place is slow to serve (although I've never had rude folks). I will say that my very favorite coffee shop (now sadly demolished to make way for a bigger Cafe Lagos) was the Daily Grind. Jackson who ran it was positively a character and could be very rude, but I just loved that.
A place with personality. The bagels are good and so are the soup and sandwiches. Also the coffee is OK, but mainly it is the atmosphere. Long live the Daily Grind and the long dead Surrogate Hostess, this place keeps up the tradition of interesting places run by interesting people.
