Everything’s quality here. For food? Big fan of the quiche . Doesn’t get much better. But. I just had the French dip and it’s in the top 3 in the city . I forgot the world around me. Do it.

Amy Lakhani

Dreamy, rustic ambiance & delectable brunch every time. The central communal table brings an intimate neighborhood party feel, and the freshest of fresh ingredients make me thankful this place exists.

Eva S

Perfect breakfast ! You should try the veggie quiche !

Sarah Nelson

An absolute gem- great for lunch/brunch or coffee meets. My favorite place to catch up with an old friend. (strangely enough- go for the BBQ sandwich )

Charlotte Piwowar

Get the apple brie panini . The hint of lavendar honey adds a nice touch...and at only $5.50 for a good sized portion, it's one of the best deals on the menu

Amir Baharlou

The banana French toast was awesome. Quaintness of this place is amazing too.

Ana Witaszczyk

Super friendly service , tasty cookies , within a cute ambience.

Kevin Jonson

Wonderful quaint local coffee shop . Breakfast sandwich is great as are their pastries .

Eric Veal

Good French dip . Make sure the jus is hot. Get a side of chips or something. Somewhat pricey at $13.

Dana Donovick

favorite neighborhood cafe for breakfast and lunch ! exceptional comfort foods , home-like atmosphere, and great service make this cafe one-of-a-kind!

Alex Armstrong

Open faced mushroom sandwich is great! Cappuccino is pretty good (8/10). This is slow food, in a good way. Don't eat here if you are in a rush!

David Rosenthal

Best baked goods + atmosphere in Seattle

Ashley Rose

Cheery staff , self service coffee and fabulous sandwiches . Try the French dip .

Charlotte Abrams

Alea and I got the garter with egg . It had mustard so that was disappointing. Michael got the panini with apple and Brie . I think I'd want to try that one next

The coffee (Stumptown ) on offer is mind-blowing, as are the stratta (day-old bread drizzled with eggs and other ingredients--sort of like a quiche ). You won't regret trying a meat stratta.

Brian

North Capitol Hill/Washington Park . Amazing food, beautiful space, and endless coffee refills.

Alex Armstrong

Lots of great changes! VPC now opens at 7am M-F, and my Cappuccino didn't have meringue on top!

Aly

It's all about the chocolate croissants and the toffee chocolate chip cookies . And the ambiance. And the people. And... well , I'm in love with the VPC.

Eric Veal

Great, dark, rich coffee . Mazzo ball soup also looked fabulous.

Allen Chan

The paninis are great! Got the bacon & poached egg . So happy : D

Love the breakfast here everything is so fresh and tasty

Daniel Plemmons

Awesome little cafe . Love the Apple Brie Panini .

Alex Edelman

You can't beat warm baked goods eaten 10 feet from where they were baked. Everything is good, but my faves are the figgy maple scone and the banana bread .

Meg O'Brien

Great neighborhood spot . Quiche , sandwiches , soups . V chill ????✌️

Pablo Trejo

Since they close at 4:30, it's a great place for late brunch/lunch on a weekend.

Philip Seifi

Cozy and delicious, great location between two parks .

Jason Horowitz

Ultimate Seattle vibe! Food is very good; service, "unhurried."

The banana brioche French toast is spectacular

Feels like eating a meal at your mothers kitchen table...if your mother was a hipster Martha Stewart.

The Chicken is a great dish served for dinner .

Neel Hajare

This place has a nice look to it and atmosphere, but coffee is not their strong suit, and while the food is bit better, it certainly isn’t worth the prices they’re charging
