Their avocado toast is amazing! Meraki is a great place to grab a coffee, tea or a quick bite in the morning. It's an easy walk from the Jefferson Bungalow.

This is a larger (more seating) Hey Neighbor Pizza just a few blocks away from the Bungalow. Tasty pizzas, salads and drinks! Cale loves the Funghi with sausage added and I like the patate pesto pecorino or the couscous salad!

Classic American Comfort Food with a NorthWest Flair Situated on the main floor of the Gordon Hotel, they have a nice menu, upscale dining experience and I highly recommend their weekend brunch! Only downside is even if the place is empty, plan to take your time here - food service is on the slower side.

This is one of the best places to go have drinks and nibbles. I don't recommend eating a meal there (their entrees are just ok), but LOVE their drinks and appetizers - the guac, chips, dips are all fantastic. The ambience is also fantastic (it's the rooftop bar at the Gordon Hotel downtown - walk into the hotel and take the elevator to the top floor).
