Stopped by for breakfast crumpets at the weekend. Service was a bit surly, and they forgot one of our crumpets - we only ordered 2. I'd probably go back but most likely it will just serve to improve my breakfast repertoire at home.

A delicious crumpet, a great cup of tea with a dash of bohemia. Loved watching them cut the dags off the just baked crumpets, a lovely slice of seattle.

This is a fun breakfast stop. It's right off of Pike Place Market. We stopped by on the way to the market. The staff is so friendly and helpful. I ordered the lemon and ricotta crumpet. It's like pancake batter with yummy toppings. My husband ordered a marmalade one. But the lemon one was exceptional! Try it!

First place we visited when we arrived in Seattle because of all the reviews. The crumpets were delicious the coffee was good and the service was great. I like the family owned feel. We did go very early in the morning (7am) and it wasn't too busy, from what I hear it can get pretty croweded. Definitely worth a visit!

I loved the texture of the crumpets and the toppings are spectacular. Cream cheese salmon with egg! Lemon curd! Pesto tomato parmesan! Hazelnut spread! When I asked a friend who is very familiar with Seattle what I shouldn't miss, she said CRUMPETS! I agree and ate here almost every day! To top it all off, the teas are loose leaf... More

These crumpets were great and fresh made. The toppings are creative and varied and fresh. The place is small so you may not be able to sit and we did wait probably 10 mins to order and then get food but I would wait again. The prices are resonable and I wish I could go back for lunch again and... More

We had breakfast here this morning and we split 3 flavours - the lemon curd and ricotta ,the egg cheese and tomato and the Stilton and marmalade. This was a fun and very tasty meal. The crumpets themselves were delicious and all the toppings were fresh and unique and satisfying It is hard to choose a favorite. The egg topping... More

Good food with large variety of crumpet toppings. Tastes good. Obviously a seattle landmark but as I come from a country where crumpets are common, it wasn't amazing. Good selection of teas which are brewed properly.

We just happened to walk past this place while on a free walking tour and saw the crumpets being made fresh through the window. They looked so good we make a point to come back later that day. These are not your regular crumpets! They were thick and fluffy with a lovely crispy bottom. I can't wait to go back... More

We LOVED this place! Savoury choices include egg & ham, but lets get to the sweet goods: The Vermont with everything (think Maple/Walnuts/Cheesecake) and The Lemon Curd with Ricotta(fresh and perfectly tangy) - UNBELIEVABLE!!!! They offer lots of coffee/tea choices to go with...Service is great, atmosphere is charming. There's even a window with seating overlooking crumpets being made...Why are you... More
