    Great feedback for the shop and cafe alike! This is the epitome of Olympia with its colorful spirit, values displayed both in decor and business practice / service, and connection with the community through events, and of course, through food! Outdoor seating only right now, and I definitely can’t complain! Beautiful views of the Capitol and Capitol Lake and the little park right next to the cafe. Fresh coffee, baked goods, oatmeal, enchiladas, lasagna… tried a lot over the years and it’s all super tasty:)

    Tasty, varied selection. Hummus, sandwiches, lasagna, ice cream and desserts to name a few. Plenty of well marked gluten free options.

    The clam chowder was one of the best I've had! This place is very welcoming and really gives a sense of local Olympia love and pride.

    Delicious local, organic ingredients in this cafe featuring fresh homemade soups, salads, sandwiches, paninis and quesadillas. Bottled beers and hard ciders available. Some outdoor seating. Nice views of Heritage park, Capitol Lake and the Capitol dome. The east side of the store features carefully selected fair trade arts and clothing from distant locations. Great place to find unique gifts and a fine bowl of soup! Go!!

    My blood mother was a werewolf and my stepdad Craig is a vampire so I am a hybrid. My sister trained me in combat. You can tell when I get angry bc my eyes turn red. Anyways the owner would not yield to me after I challenged him to a game of joustice. As a natural alpha i couldn’t help but take offense. Also it STINKS in there

    One of my favorite shops for unique gifts, housewares, and clothing. They have a great cafe and an evening concert series too!

  • 5/5 Amy L. 1 year ago on Google
    Great food and friendly staff in a funky little cafe. Check out the fair trade arts and crafts shop on the other side of the space!

  • 5/5 Heathens H. 1 year ago on Google
    Can't speak on anything but the ice cream and service but both were incredible. I had a pair and raspberry sorbet and a cherry chocolate chip pistachio ice cream that were absolutely delicious if you get a chance to stop in and grab either of the flavors grab them they are so good you will not be disappointed 🍦

    I had the avocado delight, and true to its name it was delightful! With the included side salad, the portion was perfect. I love the ambiance and the staff is always friendly. It’s a great place to get a meal, catch up with friends, or study/work. I stayed for a few hours and had a fun yet productive afternoon. There are vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free options, so it’s a great place if you’re looking for a place to go with dietary restrictions. Highly recommend!

    Amazing food, celiac safe gluten free and they understand cross-contamination!

  • 5/5 John S. 4 years ago on Google
    Had a great time at this wonderful establishment with excellent food and live music! The salmon salad was truly exceptional and I also loved their 8n-house chai tea w/ traditional black tea or non-caffeinated rooibos tea! Delicious! The store is pretty awesome with a lot of wonderful fair trade unique items as well. Simply a great stop for food and shopping when visiting Olympia for me and the locals seem to love it too given the music night was packed!

    Fair trade store with high quality decorations, jewelry, houseware, and so much more. Lots of bright colors and supporting artists all over the world. The cafe has delicious sandwiches, coffee, and sweets. Found the cutest baby items - rattle, wooden rainbow, felt mobile

    Good vibes on the inside, however, I was charged $7 for a bagel with smoked salmon cream cheese on the side (not even enough to cover the bagel). The bagels were good but nothing to write home about... They were also out of beets and the smoothie I ordered was warm (no ice).

    There are a lot of interesting products in the store, so I think it's fun to just stop by and take a look.
