Food Scene
This is a family owned coffee shop with tons of cool locals to interact with. The coffee is super high quality from a local micro roaster in Seattle. The pastries are yummy. We are all awaiting their move across the street with expanded food and seating.

This is arguably the best restaurant on Beacon Hill. It has actually been ranked as one of the top restaurants in Seattle. Their wood fire pizza, well crafted cocktails, and most notably, their inventive and delicious side dishes, make this a gem in our neighborhood. Also, don't forget to save room for desert! There is usually a wait most nights. Get their right at 6pm when they open if you don't want to wait too long. Or just plan to get a good cocktail (I like the Perry Ko Manhattan) to enjoy while waiting to be seated. Open Tuesday - Saturday.
