a big meh byalaskalainen7 months ago 0 of 1 readers thought this was helpful
Stopped in here after a Monday night salsa class upstairs to get a quick bite on the way further down to salsa practica at Halo.

It wasn't quick, but it was a bite...

Service was super slow, quite inefficient (food order taken 10 minutes after drink order, & not because we were indecisive), and the food, though serviceable, didn't quite warrant the price. You can charge a lot for a minimal amount of food, but only if the food is a super knockout kind of thing. And it wasn't.

I can see how if you were just hanging out and doing work on an afternoon, none of these complaints would matter. So maybe it is super awesome for lunch. Just not dinner.

Sorry guys, we won't be back.

p.s. not much for the vegetarians, either

I have to say I expected big things, but was very underwhelmed...the food is just not good. Cool atmosphere, but I go to a cafe to eat not enjoy the scenery....

This is a great place to study during the day and sometimes early evening. Their chocolate chip cookies make my smile come out. In my experience, the people working here are super sweet and attentive. I agree that the food is 3.5, but the people push it to a 4 star.

Smith is better food and more fun byFinish Tag10 months ago 3 of 3 readers thought this was helpful
The service I've had has been inattentive and the food is fine, but not very inventive, nor difficult to prepare. The mixed drinks are great, especially the homemade maraschino cherry.

Sanwiches, scones, coffee byjseattle10 months ago 0 of 0 readers thought this was helpful
Oddfellows is a great place for me to work and have lunch or breakfast. I don't venture very far into the menu. What I've had, has been 3.5 star. The extra 1/2 star is for the space and the people.
