I recently took Maisie & Mister Magoo to the Broadway Veterinary Hospital after having some bad experiences with another vet. Prior to scheduling my appointment, I stopped in the office & not only were Mary and the rest of the staff very friendly and knowledgeable, but also the entire office was spotless.
They were able to schedule me quickly. During our visit, we encountered nothing but a warm welcome from everyone we met. Liddy, our vet, was extremely well versed in the most current veterinary practices and the visit was wonderful and very thorough.
I would wholeheartedly recommend them.

No customer service skills whatsoever

After being referred to them by the Braun customer service center, I took my six-month-old coffee maker to them so that they could order a new drip stop (the plastic contraption that is under the basket).
I was informed that they would call me in a weeks' time once they had looked at it. One week came & went without a phone call; I contacted them and was told they hadn't looked at it. I was again promised a call, which never materialized.
I contacted them again a full week after being promised a call and was told that they had ordered a new heater assembly! I informed them that I didn't need the aforementioned, but needed a drip stop! I was advised that they would look into it & it would be another week. (No apology offered.)
I then called back a short time later to ensure that they were indeed looking at my coffee maker; they hadn't even checked the claim ticket number! "Oh, I had your coffee maker confused with another one ..." (No apology offered.)
Finally, I did receive a call yesterday informing me that my coffee maker was ready. During this whole three-week process, I never received any sort of "I'm sorry we didn't call you," etc. whenever I called. They were very short on the phone & acted like you were annoying them.
I understand that Braun has another service center in the area & if I ever have another problem with my coffee maker, you can bet that I will go there instead!

The owner is from Venice & her shop definitely is as authentic as you can get. The flavors vary slightly & the last time I was there they had a delightful pumpkin gelato. You must try it ... very interesting mix of flavors. Reminiscent of pumpkin pie, but better! They also make the riso (rice) gelato, which is reminiscent of rice pudding. Free samples are available.
Both the gelato and the pastries are delicious. I recently took a friend from Italy here & she was very impressed. Also, their sidewalk tables are a great place to sit, enjoy your gelato, and people watch.

Very busy, lots of sandwich options

On my first visit, they were very busy, which is usually a good sign. I tried the meatball sub & had expected it to be like those I would get back East. The meatballs were huge and covered in copious amounts of tomato sauce. The bread was a bit too chewy & it was slightly burnt..
My dining companions enjoyed the Cajun sandwich & I'll probably try that next time (or another of their many options) I'm in the mood for a sandwich without East coast roots.
As others have mentioned, it is really hard to find good East-coast style sandwich shops in Seattle. Lots of other things to appreciate in the Northwest though ...

I echo the sentiments of the reviewers before me. The crumpets are delightful and a real treat anytime. The cozy little shop is a real gem in the PPM & I often take out-of-town guests here since it is so charming and their offerings are so tasty.
If you can snag a table out front, it's great for people-watching, too!

The folks at the Mud Bay on East Thomas Street (just off of Broadway) are always so nice & helpful. They remember you (and you pets) and are more than happy to answer any questions you have, recommend products, and order items for you.
My Shih-Tzu, Mister Magoo, just loved the little stuffed, squeaky chipmunks, but had totally decimated his. (Note: I don't leave him unsupervised while he is enjoying this toy & make sure he doesn't swallow the fluff.) The staff tried to order more of them for me, and regularly kept me updated as to the status of the order. Unfortunately, the distributor was having issues obtaining this particular item, so after several weeks, instead, we had all chipmunks in stock throughout Western Washington shipped to this store.
I'm very happy to report that I now have a back-stock of four additional chipmunks. Unfortunately, this item has been complete discontinued by the manufacturer so I'll have to see if I can track them down online somewhere. :(

I've enjoyed Vivace for years & am a regular evangelist for their coffee beans (& drinks). I regularly send beans to all my friends all over the country & have even made a few fans overseas.
Once you elevate your taste buds, it is really hard to go anywhere else.
Their beans are freshly roasted so you can enjoy freshly brewed coffee in your jammies (although you could probably go out in your jammies in Capitol Hill & not turn any heads!).

I've enjoyed their bockwurst, bratwurst, and berliner sausages in addition to the German-style bread (made locally at the Morningstar bakery & at an excellent bakery in Canada). The bread is delivered on Tuesdays and Saturdays & they are more than happy to hold bread, etc. for you.
I was happy to see they carried the Handelmeier brand mustard that I enjoyed while in Munich, too!
