Updated 2/6/23: Earlier I didn't have a good experience at Mt West but was surprised to have them reach out to me after my initial review. Not only did they refund my order but they gave me a gift card to try their restaurant again. I went early on a Monday morning instead and it was a lot less busy than when I went before. I got the Mr Breakfest again with a Huckleberry hand pie and an orange Mocha latte. The potatoes were a little dry for my taste, but the rest of the breakfest was a lot better than my experience last time. The latte was very good as well. Though I think my favorites from here are the outstanding patries. My best tips here are to try it out during the week if you can and definitely order in person. The online order process is just not the same experience and it won't be as good at all. I'm very appreciative of the owner reaching out and providing a new meal to try it again. The part where this place shines the most is their service. I'll certainly try to come back when I'm around the area next! Previous review: I didn't really enjoy my experience here. We visited on Sunday at 11am which can be a busy time. The line was really long so we tried to skip it and get into the food queue by ordering online. We didn't realize this would mean the food would not be plated. There was no option to choose dine in from what we could find. It was a little embarrassing eating out of the take out bins in the dining area when others were able to have plated food. They also forgot two parts of my order the first time around after waiting 30 minutes. Some of the staff is nice but others just flat out ignore you when trying to ask a question from the experience we had. I got the Mr Breakfest and a coffee. The food itself was okay but not worth the price paid. It became clear the price seemed to be mostly for the atmosphere. The coffee was just okay.

The food was excellent. The service was great. The atmosphere was welcoming. PLEASE SEE THE PICTURES AND VIDEOS PROVIDED. I'm from Southern California. Yup, I'm a tourist out here in Seattle. As soon as I walked in, I was welcomed by many plants, the scent of coffee, and the aesthetics of a winery. The line wasn't long. We ordered pretty quickly. We sat near the window facing the entrance. The view was great. People watching was fun. People were lightly talking amongst each other. It was sort of a calm place. Now, the food. To start off, we ordered a couple of pastries. We ordered a Rasberry Oat Bar and a Chocolate Chip Cookie. The oat bar was heavy, full of flavor, and really made my taste buds pop. Homie-G was loving it! The chocolate chip cookie was fluffy and delightful. I'm not much of a chocolate fan, but I was still able to take a few bites. Our main dishes are coming up! We ordered the Mr. West Club (roasted turkey, bacon, lettuce, tomato, pickled onion, etc.) with a side of potatoes. Please see the pictures and videos! So good! The other dish was an egg and cheese croissant with bacon. See pictured and videos. That was also good. It was topped off with a cappuccino and an orange juice. It could be because I'm a tourist from Southern California, but I would recommend this establishment. Next time, illtey something else that will pair well with a wine offering. Homie-G out!

Mr. West serves up a modern take on the 'café', with menu items served best for brunch or happy hour, along with a beautifully updated space designed for a high-end industrial feel. If you're looking for a good place for that first date person you just met online, this is a great option to bring them too. As you come in, you are placed in line to order food, as they don't provide table service, which I personally think is brilliant. Seating is comfortable for between 2 to 4 people per table. We chose a seat by the window for maximum people watching. Come early for your best chances of finding a seat. If you're ordering any sandwich or toast, I recommend getting either the shakshuka or tomato soup so that you have something to dip your left over bread. Overall though, I wish I could have given this place a perfect score but our drinks came out roughly 10 minutes after our meal, which is something I hope isn't usual for every visit, considering the price point of their offerings.

This place was recommended to me so was on my list for some time before I stopped in for lunch. No table service, you stand in line as soon as you enter to order at the counter and then hope there's a table available to sit at. There wasn't when we first got in line as it was quite busy inside, but by the time we ordered two tables had opened up. While waiting for our order, I staked out one of them while waiting for an employee to clear off the dirty dishes. It was a bit awkward standing next to a dirty table with some of our food in hand already. Once the table was cleared and we got seated the rest of the order was dropped off fairly quickly. My salad tasted good and was prepared exactly as specified (+egg, no cheese). It was a nice mix of ingredients and a satisfying lunch. Overall, the food was good and I might be inclined to try other items, but the service atmosphere was rather odd.

A lively, well decorated cafe bar. At the center of the cafe is the bar and its really fun to watch. Great for brunch/lunch or a quick bite. There are music playing always, with a self-serve water station and a self-bus station. It's a really comfortable atmosphere to do work or meet up with people! There are plenty of seating both indoors and outdoors. Quality of service was excellent and can't praise the interior decor enough. The drinks and food are awesome, just wish there are more food options but I understand it the focus is mostly on the drinks. The tomato basil soup is okay, probably at a 3.7/5, definitely better with the grilled bread. The coldbrew was amazing though!!! 10/10, love it. I would say it lands on the pricier side (seriously $16 for strawberry ricotta toast), hence the 4/5 star. But obviously the price isn't deterring me from coming here 3 times.

This is a really cute cafe near the convention center in downtown Seattle. The coffee is good and the pastries look really good but the service is slower than an arthritic tortoise. There are three employees working the counter; two that appear to make coffee and one that takes orders. The order taker is regularly distracted by tasks that seem random, and the two folks making the coffee appear to do nothing else. However they seem to spend more time talking to each other than making coffee. The experience for us was waiting about twenty minutes for the four people in front of us to put their orders in, and then it took another twenty minutes to get our coffees (two of them). Forty minutes all together. The orange mocha I received did not taste like orange at all, and it was luke warm. My wife's latte was also luke warm. Tldr: it took forty minutes to get luke warm coffee at Mr.West today.

The only thing I'll complain about is the fact that they did have a long line of people, but that's out of their control. I got there at 11:30am and I had a meeting starting at noon. It took about 15-20 minutes to get to the front of the line, order, and receive our food. So it was cutting it close. That being said, the Mina's chai (hot) and a Cardamom Tonic (cold) were both excellent and worth the wait. The tonic drinks (egg creams, etc.) are an acquired taste. Don't order these alone if you've never had them. Order in combination with something you know you like, just in case you don't prefer that particular type of drink. The ambiance inside is unique, fresh and airy. It's a very large space but not too loud, and it's full of plants, sort of like a greenhouse cafe. You can sit down and eat/drink or take to go.

So good and exactly what I needed. I got a tumeric latte, summer salad, and chia pudding. I literally ate every morsel! The salad was phenomenal, the latte was better than any other tumeric latte I’ve had before, the chia pudding was very delicious. Presentation was great and came out quickly! Loved all the plants and quite a few places to sit. My only complaint is the waitstaff wasn’t the most friendly and I felt a bit unwelcome. They weren’t “rude” but asked me to hold on when I walked up to order which took them a few minutes to get to me and didn’t talk much. Update: I visited again and the waitstaff were different people and much more friendly this time. The food wasn’t quite as good, I ordered something different. It was still delicious just not as good as last time, would still recommend and return!

DO NOT RECOMMEND. Guys I love trying aesthetically pleasing food. Presentation plays a huge part in food, however I’m going to be honest we did not enjoy this at all. Dish 1: Niçoise Salad -while appealing to the eye, it was flavorless Dish 2: Morning Glory Brunch Board -Had the stalest bread I’ve ever ate Not pictured is a drink I ordered called the Marionberry shrub, after tasting it I didn’t like it, so I asked to switch it out the waitress asked what I didn’t like about it with attitude and I stated I simply just didn’t like it, i was looking for something sweet. A kind gentleman refunded me for the drink. I then got Pomegranate juice which tasted fine at first sip but then the more I drank the more it started to taste like she had poured half the other drink into the cup in spite of me asking to replace my drink. Terrible experience and I wouldn’t go back.

  • ajay fay

Seriously this place is a gem. Like, how there wasn’t a line out the front door I don’t know. But from the min I walked in, to the people working there, and the food- hot darn I’d eat there every day if I was local. The bread was to die for, huge thick slice of homemade sourdough, fresh poached eggs, and the bacon… dang, I am hungry now! Loved this spot. Loved the vibe, the ladies making my coffee were also fantastic. Had one of those new green ☕️, I think it’s a maachhaa?? Idk, it was great, had the oat milk in it. I’ll for sure be back. And ya’ll keep killing it. The entrance is fun, full of lush plants and gorgeous sunlight. I wanted to chill there for hours, but I had to catch a flight with the Mrs. Well, hope this helps someone! Stay full my friends, stay full.

  • Arin Sarkissian

Super good! This coffee was some of the best I’ve had - both the Americano and the flavored latte were done impeccably. When it came to the good, I was also in love… Really lovely ambience with a refreshing, “open” feel. The Pear + Ricotta toast was great, but just needed a bit more burst of flavor. The Shakshuka took me right back to a home recipe and the eggs were cooked to absolute perfection!! Lovely mix of ingredients and seasonings. My only hesitation in giving 5 stars was the steep pricing. For this price, I’d expect just a bit more for the food items, both in portion and/or side offerings. Nonetheless, incredible food and coffee!

During the two years I lived in Seattle, I had seen lines out the door of this coffee shop every single day. It wasn’t until I was staying at the Hyatt Regency across the street years later when I finally decided to wait in line for breakfast. I ended up returning every morning for the rest of my stay that week. Even though the line to order is long, there’s usually plenty of seating and service is pretty quick. The almond latte I ordered was HUGE and the cakes in the case up front are delicious. It’s also a great place to stay for a while. Filled with hundreds of plants, it’s a great environment for morning meetings, reading, computer stuff, etc.

This is a great cafe for grabbing breakfast or brunch with a friend. The interior is very cool, modern, and comfortable. The breakfast items seem a bit pricy (but fairly average by Seattle standards) but the portions are large and make the price fair. The line moves a bit slowly in my experience, and some of the coffee items are better than others. It falls below a typical Seattle coffee shop for me. All in all my experience is that the ambience of the place is a big draw and they have tasty food. Would recommend.

I really struggle with whether to give this 4 or 4 stars. The food was very good though a bit expensive. We had avocado toast and coffee and ended up paying $50 after tax and tip... but maybe that's just the way things are these days in the city. It has an upscale, modern Cafe feel with window seating so you can relax and watch the city go by. Overall, we enjoyed our experience.

Trendy cafe-cum-cocktail bar with a great coffee program and modern American menu. Their main roaster is Water Ave (Portland, OR) and the result is a stellar house blend called Mountains Calling that was phenomenal on espresso. The mixology game also shines in the Coffee Egg Cream, an "egg cream" (type of beverage) that is rich, chocolatey, and deftly balanced. Pear & thyme scone wrapped up a great way to start your day! Not sure if it qualifies them as a multi-roaster but there were also bags of Sey Coffee (Brooklyn, NY) and Stamp Act Coffee (Seattle, WA) when we stopped in.

This is a very chic cafe/bar. The decor is very bright and reminds me of a 19 year old’s Pinterest board. Super trendy. On this particular day, customer base seems to be just about everyone you could think of from whole families with young children (2%), instagrammers/bloggers(20%), young professionals(40%), older professionals/seniors(38%). The food and coffee were both excellent in quality and presentation with great flavor and freshness. Had the cereal milk cappuccino, wild salmon toast, and Niçoise salad. Although can’t help but feel that the food and especially the coffee (cost for milk substitutions etc) is a bit overpriced for what it is.

  • Justin Moore

Great food and great environment, but they unfortunately created a poor customer experience for our group. We’ve been multiple times over the weekend and we’ve been able to sit at the bar and order. With a friend in town, we expected to be able to do the same thing. Instead, they said that “this rule about the bar” can change daily. That’s a horrible customer experience to - on some weekends - be able to do it, and then other times not be able to. Very disappointed. And then we were treated like we were in the wrong for doing this very thing that has been fine every other time we’ve visited.

The Cappuccino here is really bad, but the service is great. I tried the Salmon Toast, Warmed Brownie, and Cappuccino and thought the Salmon was rich, albeit slightly salty; the Warmed Brownie was yummy; however the Cappuccino was probably one of the worst I've had in Seattle. I was going to send it back, but our waiter came and informed us there was a mistake and the kitchen prepared an extra brownie and cappuccino (which they gave us for free), so I let it slide. The wait staff was impressively attentive throughout our visit and very polite. The ambience is chic and lively, making this a great spot, regardless of the lackluster coffee.

  • Tom Koval

Great looking place and I love the plants and pots, but the coffee and food was not very good and service was poor. When my carry-out order was messed up (not a complicated one-- a latte and a standard salad with chicken) and I had to spend 10 extra minutes coming back to let them know they forgot the chicken, I didn't even receive a "sorry," let alone a cookie or drink for my trouble. The salad ended up being not very good anyhow Recommend Homegrown instead

Tasty, fresh food in a relaxing environment and with amazing staff. It always seems pretty packed, and I like the bustling environment. I think that they're a little pricey, but they do provide a pretty hefty portion. I would recommend trying their brunch menu, especially their salmon toast or Italian sausage toast, they're both hefty portions and super delicious! A minor personal preference: I personally don't like the ordering system: you order first, and then find an open table. I know that that's normal for cafes, but with hot plated food incoming, I'd rather have a seat first before I order.

  • Jeff Smith

Aside from the wifi issues, I love the vibe and atmosphere inside. Lots of different seating arrangements for solo or small groups. The lattes and matcha lattes are great too. BUT the past 3 months the wifi only connects about every other time at best. So if you need reliable wifi, I’d go elsewhere. They’ve told me several times they were getting it fixed the next day, but it never does.. so basically I wasted money to get work done and can’t work at all. I will happily readjust this review when you can provide basic and consistent wifi.

Great place to grab a coffee or a mimosa (the pomegranate flavour was pretty good). I also got the grilled cheese along with a cup of spicy tomato soup - can’t go wrong with such a classic combination!! It does get pretty crowded on the weekend so I would suggest going a bit early. And seating can get a bit annoying - no one assists you with finding a table. You will have to just walk around to find one.

Mr. West will serve you morning coffee and pastry, salads and sandwiches for lunch or dinner, and cocktails til they close. And no one will judge if you want a glass of wine anytime :). I had the almond butter and rhubarb jam toast which was toasted just right and served warm and luscious. And the “handsome salad” which missed the mark a little. It was a bit overdressed and a couple of slimy leaves slipped through quality control. I’ll definitely be back though. Love the wide selection of wines by the glass and the stylish space.

  • Ryan Jimenez

I wanted to love this place, as the decor is perfect. It’s a little confusing. The water on the back of the bar wasn’t bad. The line (it was there the whole time I was ordering / eating)that goes out the door and blocks the exit if you choose to sit outside was a pain to navigate backwards through. My food came out before my coffee, it was good not great. So much so that I finished the food before I got my coffee. Coffee was tasty and artistic. TLDR: amazing decor / good food + coffee / cramped entry / coffee took a long time.

  • Emma Rivera

I wish I could give this more stars because I had high hopes for this place. The atmosphere here is quite "aesthetic" and I think that caries over into the goal with their food as well. While this is a visually pleasing casual place to grab brunch, their food lacks seasoning, flavor, and depth. Even their seasonal Oat-Chata (pictured) which I ordered seemed to lack spice. I probably won't decide to come back here on my own accord, however, if the situation presents itself I will return for a quick and healthy meal.

  • Valerio Oricchio

Nice and clean venue. Ordered the spiced tomato soup and the Mr. Breakfast. The former was amazingly good, the latter look great, but it was served warm-cold (bacon wasn’t readily made). They promptly replaced the dish. Overall OK experience, you would expect better for the price and presentation. Partially recommended.

Every inch of this cafe is #aesthetics and their toasts are amazing. I’ve tried the Croque Monsieur, Italian, and Ricotta Berry? Each one is lovely in its own way. The Croque Monsieur is my favorite- that sauce they pour over it is magic and the toast itself is thick and fluffy yet crispy. The Ricotta Berry has a load of fresh berries on top and also basil!! My husband loves their Americano and I also love their Chai. I took my sister for her birthday brunch and she also loved it. It’s my happy place.

  • Jessica Ellem

It’s a quaint cafe with really eclectic drink and food options. But I really didn’t like my tuna melt sandwich. It had a strong kick to it that was overpowering and unexpected. The container of chips was only a quarter full. $17 is a lot to ask for for a small tuna sandwich. But I thought they handled being busy well in that it didn’t take too much time to get my food.

Ordered veggie sandwich for online order and they gave me some tuna salad. I had to go back as they were not answering the phone and ask them for the right order again. When I went back, they were so casual about it and did not even acknowledge the discomfort that their order mess up caused me. Even their food is disappointing, the bread is huge and soggy. The only positive thing is the ambience, it looks fancy. Overall , not a positive experience for me.

Mr. West used to be amazing. Lately, not so much. Ordered the brussels sprout caesar in the picture and didn't open it until I was back at the office. Very few brussels sprouts, a few croutons, even less cheese and mostly romaine. Disappointing for $13, even in Seattle. No longer the Mr. West standard that made the place great in the past.

Amazing plant-filled space, fresh inventive food & drink, and friendly staff. Literally in love with this spot. Ordered two salads, a shrub, a cereal-milk cappuccino, and the cheese toast. There was a little mix-up with the order and we ended up with grilled cheese instead--honestly seemed way better than the toast! Our server was really lovely and comped us our drinks, even though we were perfectly happy. Can't wait to go back!

Nice little coffee house/cafe. The ambiance was super chill, I loved all of the plants and artwork. The customer service was great and staff very welcoming. I had the cappuccino and chocolate tart. Desserts are a little pricy for the size but are absolutely delicious so I would say it’s worth it. I also picked up some coffee beans to go and they are so good that we will be ordering them all the way from Orlando on the regular.

Loved the vibe of this place. Friendly and fast service and lots of room for seating. Bright open concept. They had some vegan brunch options, which is rare to find at a non vegan restaurant. I really enjoyed the platter of different delights - nuts, fruit, bread etc. Tasty! It's only served on Saturday and Sunday though - heads up! Wasn't a big fan of the coffee but the food and atmosphere was worth the trip!

Solid cafe offering some large portions and trendy eats. The coffee options are bountiful so expect a better experience if you're coming to drink rather than eat. The good is good but not great.

Arugula bacon toast was , aged cheddar honey toast is simple and tasty. Strawberry cream cheese hand pie is less sweet than expected (friend wished it was a compote or jelly instead of fresh) I liked it as is.

  • Jeffrey Newkirk

Great vibe, wholesome food, welcoming staff who seem like they enjoy working there. I devoured my shakshuka and scone. Flavors that I don't produce in my kitchen, that's for sure. Mmmm. Incredible.

Below average expectations, food is tasteless! there is nothing on tables such as salt/pepper or napking and cultery. Service is worst, I asked for a galss of water and the waiter replied back go get it yourself. The menu and options are so limited. Over priced for quality and service.

This place offers diverse international breakfast options. Their Spanish omelette was fresh, had the right amount of egg and was hard to stop eating. The avocado toast being one of the few vegan options could have been more elaborate. The huckleberry pop tart was unique and local. Servers weren't attentive.

This place is cozy and welcoming. It has a modern feel, with tons of beautiful plants everywhere. I got this tuna sandwich and coffee for breakfast. It really hit the spot. However they also have cocktails and other specialty coffee drinks on the menu. I also stayed there for two hours working after I ate. It’s a perfect place to work and study.

Curried Avocado Toast

  • Riddhi Kotian

This is a nice brunch place located at downtown. There could a long waiting during the weekends. We ordered the avacado sandwich, tuna sandwich and the coffee. The tuna sandwich was very good. Coffee is awesome as well. It is a self serve place. You order and pick your table and the staff will get your food to the table once ready.

Chose this place based on the amount of plants we saw as we walked by and that I really needed coffee. The decor was beautiful and the staff was friendly. Coffee was delicious; the food was okay.

When I was told about this place I was extremely excited to try it. We had Mr. West for brunch and I would have to say it’s one of the best sandwiches I’ve ever had. The breakfast was amazing, everything from the food to the coffee.

Mid level place. It’s a great spot for a person that likes coffee and plants for the vibes. The oatchatta had a very strong ginger taste. Not my preferred flavor. 3/10 The maple salted toffee late was alright. Not the best I’ve had but ok. 7/10 Coffee pricing is reasonable All food items are overpriced IMO.

$30 for a breakfast that doesn't even get served on a plate. Also forced gratuity for picking up a bag from a counter and seating yourself. For a sit down restaurant, they did not have a public restroom?? Avoid this place.

Gluten free options, good location, trendy decor and friendly servers. Good coffee and tea and healthy, tasty food. Stopped here for breakfast. My order (almond butter with rhubarb compote on gluten free bread) was wrong but they fixed it right away and removed it from the bill. Thank you. ( :

This place is very popular, so you might not have a spot to sit right away. But once you get there - it will be worth the wait. I like their soups and cocktails . If your lunch is around 11-30am - this place will have a spot for you.

Food tastes average, especially the avocado toast and shawarma wrap. Coffee and affogato was good. Menu is quite pricey for its quality. The staff bringing the food is fast and nice. I would say partially recommended. It’s a kind of LA vibe in Downtown, Seattle.

  • Jean-Claude “JC” Hauchecorne

Start with the good. The toast I had was good, my wife had a salad that she also liked. Area’s for improvement: Friendlier attitude at the counter. Did not feel welcomed. Taste is personal, but I did not like the coffee. To me the coffee tasted bitter or burnt.

  • Andreas Aristidou

Top place! Where should I start from? Food is all taste and quality and not too expensive. Ambience is top, there’s room to work or have a chat or just chill in a modern environment with open kitchen. I would be a regular customer if I lived around the area.

Such a great spot with delicious food and drinks. Loved their avocado toast. It gets super busy in the morning and line up could take 15-20 min before you place your order. Then you wait for another 10-15 min for your food/drinks so plan accordingly.
