Reviews for Citizen Cafe in Seattle, WA
I've been to this place multiple times, wanting to give it a chance each time. But unfortunately it never got better. The one... star is for the wonderful servers who were kind and helpful throughout. Here's all the issues: 1. Food AND DRINKS took anactual hour after ordering. Normally in a busy place this would be understandable. But we were some of the first people theresitting at a table. Also if you can't keep up with the orders at least let people know that it will take that long. The delaywas the same each of the three times I went to this restaurant in the past year. All at varying times of day. 2. Food came coldafter waiting a whole hour. And not even fully prepared. As you can see my waffle wasn't full and didn't have the toppings fullyon top but more just there. The fruit had multiple rotten pieces as well. 3. No compost or recycling done outside despite platesbeing paper and cups recyclable. 4. The servers were literally running as soon as food was given, clearly they need more staffor support for servers and cooks. Read more
This eclectic cafe has a quaint patio with plenty of family friendly seating! We were so glad our original plan was closed and... we stumbled upon Citizen. The food was good, and the atmosphere was even better. It is a touch slow on the service, thecappuccino wasn?t anything to glow about, and they do factor in a 20% tip no matter what. Didn?t bother us, the space to sit andrelax was worth it, but others might feel differently. Read more
Very tasty vegetarian and gluten-free food. Tastes way better than it looks. 20$ per person for breakfast but you get disposable... plates and cutlery. Mushroom waffle tasted amazing with the balsamic. My friend's quinoa bowl wasn't a bowl and had more blackbeans than quinoa. Its alright. 3.5/5 Read more
This review is solely about the outdoor space as I did not drink here. Love the outdoor space- specially for a large... group. It?s a good place to invite a bunch of people to reconnect or just hang out in a relaxing environment. The couches andchairs are comfortable and plenty and the tent keeps the temperature pleasant. There is also seating outside the tent. Read more
Grabbed a quick to go sandwich, the BLAT on the menu. Pretty good! There isn't a ton of incredible lunch spots in this area and... I think this restaurant isn't open for lunch every day. But the food was good, they have espresso drinks and the staff wasfriendly. Read more
Went here for brunch and loved the options available for vegetarians. The food was good but we had difficult time with the toast... (it was too hard). Other than that we loved the place. They have nice outdoor area with heaters. The coffee was good and theservice was quick. Definitely recommend the place. Cheers! Read more
This is a cool, trendy little spot with plenty of open, outdoor seating. The tables/fire pits are set with social distancing in... mind, but also to give you a little more privacy. Wasn't very crowded when we went midmorning on a Sunday anyway. The breakfastmenu is creative and the dishes we got were tasty. We got the Cowboy Egg Casserole and the Apple Smoked Bacon. Both weredelicious, and reasonably priced considering the area. The only thing that irked me was the included tip in the bill. I hate itwhen places do this. They take away your choice and ability to tip based on quality of service. What If the service and food andexperience was terrible and I didn't want to tip at all? I didn't tip any extra because of this. Read more
So glad we stumbled upon this place! Cool vibe, it was nice to sit outside watch the clouds pat a couple friendly pups and... enjoy amazing food. Our food was delivered incredibly fast by wonderful friendly server(s). Will absolutely be coming back. Read more
