Caffé Minnie's

Seattle, WA


Summary
Would we go there again: Yes

If you're out late at night in the vicinity of downtown Seattle and you're looking for a bite to eat, Minnie's is head and shoulders above the other common choice of Denny's. They've got good breakfast food, tasty sandwiches, and a great tomato basil soup.

Comments & Ratings
Tim's Comments: I used to go to this place fairly often when I was in college. I really like their food. The atmosphere is... interesting, but fun. I definitely docked them some points though for not being smoke-free.

Jeni's Comments: It's a fun place to eat. I would like it better if it were smoke-free. Maybe that will happen someday. Their food is tasty, and the price is reasonable. We eat here frequently.
