JP is awesome!! This was the 1st bar I came too while in Seattle and I was impressed. It might be a little pricey but totally worth it. The employees are top notch! I had the chicken fried steak as he suggested and holy smokes. It was fantastic! The vibe was great and I would absolutely go back!
If you are looking for a more “traditional home style” definitely go check this place!!! BEST PLACE AND MOST DELICIOUS FOOD EVER!!!!! Every time I’m in town I will definitely go visit! Who doesn’t love excellent breakfast!!!
Eclectic dive bar with a fun vibe and delicious breakfast. Service was top notch. They made a pot of strong decaf coffee for us. Seattle mad be the coffee capital but challenging to find decaf
The food at The 5 Point Café was incredible—everything we tried was packed with flavor, and the portions were perfect. The staff were quick, friendly, and really on top of things even when it was busy. I was only in Seattle for three nights and ended up eating dinner here twice, which says a lot. The vibe is classic Seattle—laid-back, a little gritty, but in the best way. Definitely a must-visit spot.
We ate breakfast here twice during our extended weekend (why are there so few breakfast spots in Seattle!) and absolutely loved it. Food was great with huge portions (we never came close to finishing). The chorizo is amazing, great taste and not greasy. The French toast my daughter had was so good. A bit pricey, but everything in Seattle is.
Oops I did it again....The CFB... A country fried steak on top of a club sandwich with a side of white gravy and 2x tater tots!!!. This time I got it to go .. it travels well .... but seriously there is no where else that can do this sandwich... And it is the bomb... Also big shout out to the bar tender Stevie .. bro you are awesome. Thanks guys another great meal and great time. Catch ya next time !
Tried this place for the first time back in 2019 when I first visited Seattle. Tried it again this past weekend and it was just as good as I remembered it. The service was great and we got seated immediately. The food was very good. It is a little pricey but still so good. Highly recommend it!
This place is an absolute gem. The food was phenomenal… fresh, flavorful, and easily some of the best I’ve had in a long time. Everything came out quickly and was clearly made with care. The service absolutely deserves a shoutout. Danny was our server and he was fantastic… friendly, attentive, and genuinely made the experience better from start to finish. You can tell when someone actually enjoys what they do, and it shows. Excellent food, excellent service, and a great overall experience. This is the kind of place that earns repeat visits. We’ll definitely be back. EDIT: We came back for breakfast and had just as great of an experience. The food was every bit as good the second time around, and the service was excellent again. Jeffrey was our server this time and he was fantastic… friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was perfect. It says a lot about a place when the quality and service are consistently this good, no matter when you come in. Still a solid 10/10. Highly recommend.
Great place, great vibe, great ambience - full of life, and of course great food! Generous portions and fair price too. As someone visiting from out of town, it felt like there were many regulars and a sense of community among them and the staff which was wonderful to watch - a treat in itself watching people having a genuinely good time! Highly recommend! Oh thanks for the wonderful french toast with fruits and custard which was a very specific third trimester craving.
We were there at 4:45a bc our bodies are on east coast time - so good! Great coffee, pancakes, biscuits & gravy. Really nice service. Entertaining atmosphere, for sure. Worth the time and money - enjoy!
