Lost Lake Cafe & Lounge

We visited around 10 am on a Sunday. It looks like stepping back in time about 40 years and we loved it. The food was great as was the service. The waitress didn't seem bothered at all by needing more time to look at the menu and was over all friendly. We got pancakes and the goatcheese scramble. The portions are small- but it was enough. We were satisfied rather than stuffed. The jam is local too! We'll return when we're in Seattle again.

A typical diner, open around the clock. The mushroom scramble with Swiss cheese was good. No choice of sides or bread -- came with three small smashed potatoes and two half slices of sourdough(?). No espresso machine and would not bring hot milk for my drip coffee. Our waiter was a bit of a space cadet: he asked if I wanted more coffee but never came back to refill. And he gave me the check, I gave him my credit card, and the signature slip had a total about half the original. I don't even know how you make a Point Of Sale terminal make that mistake. I pointed out the error and he sheepishly corrected it. Many better breakfast choices at 8a on a Friday in Seattle.

Amazing food and fun atmosphere - I had a great breakfast sandwich, a bit heavy on the ham but the hash browns were perfectly crispy. My boyfriend had the Philly cheese steak that he has been talking about for days. But I'm like 90% sure the Coke was Pepsi just FYI. As an individual with chronic illness the bathroom was gnarly and not very friendly but if you're out for drinks on a weekend night it's not going to matter much.

This was the funnest cafe I have ever been too. The vibe of the place was SO FUN. It's a great place to start your day. I had their biscuits and gravy and let me say WOOOOOW. That was the absolute best breakfast I've ever had. I give it a 10 out of 10 and absolutely recommend it. The folks that work there too are so fun and so nice. They really contributed to the fun and lively atmosphere. If you're visiting totally go here. If you're a local who hasn't tried it yet...get over there. ASAP. You won't regret it!! Also, I didn't pay attention if it has vegan, vegetarian or gluten free options, but I'm sure if you go to their website you can view the menu to find out! 😊
