13 Coins is supposed to be a Seattle institution. Frankly, that's really sad.
Granted, the cummerbund and bow tie wearing wait staff look kitschy and the 6 foot tall leather booths make you feel like you're eating with Joe Pesci in Goodfellas. However, the service also reminds me of violent, paranoid hit men and the food is less than great.
Finally, be sure to skip rent before paying the bill because 13 Coins has the most expensive, mediocre food around. Plus, you get to share your personal space with drunk high school students. Joy.

Across the street from the Harvard Exit theater, in the space once occupied by the beloved Harvard Espresso, is the unfortunately named Joe Bar.
Why unfortunate? From my perspective, the name didn't exactly inspire me to go inside and since I resented the loss of the previous tenant, I grumbled when walking by and didn't try it out.
Anyway, I was wrong. the coffee is good and they have great crepes, both the Nutella and cream variety and the cheese and vegetable kind. There's not a lot of seating, so be prepared to eat the gooey deliciousness on the sidewalk outside.
Sorry I didn't come in sooner.

Behind a dubious, little storefront on Aurora Ave the best vets in Seattle are hard at work. All three docs here are smart and friendly, but Lisa Newton has earned my business and the care of my dogs for as long as she wants it.
We recently had to put our cat to sleep and I'm not sure I could have handled it without her candor and sympathy. To make us feel comfortable, they even offered to let us pay the next time we came in.
On a totally different note, Dr. Bernstein has been known to let you look in the microscope when your dogs develop, er, microscopic passengers. Assuming you're into that sort of thing.
