“Food was delicious. Service was meh. She forgot part of our order and wasn’t around for refills. We had no ketchup, but I felt I would be inconveniencing her if I asked. The place was cold, other diners were complaining also. I don’t think we’ll want to come here again.“
“Imagine you live in the sunless, waterlogged hellscape that is Olympia, Washington. On one particularly wet and sunless day you find yourself in a cozy French bistro. There's only a single soup option, the daily special. You order it like a hero, or run away like a coward. A bowl plus fresh bread is only $6.75 anyways. You rejoice at the earnest and humble nature of this meal, and it transports you to a provincial life of simple choices and honest food. A chef brings it out, and you exchange small talk for a moment. The rain outside your window has now become like an old friend.Anyways, soup and bread yum!!“
“Probably so named because this place will heal your soul. This little oasis seriously turned my entire week around in a matter of minutes. So peaceful. The food, beverages, products, people, and atmosphere are all beautiful. Their enclosed patio was my favorite. I stayed warm enough to work comfortably for a couple of hours, and they've even done a wonderful job reducing the traffic noise. 10/10 will absolutely travel 45 minutes to visit again.P.S. can confirm the rose cardamom cashew cream latte & raspberry grilled cheese are DELICIOUS. Best enjoyed in filtered sunlight. I'm going back for their herbal drinks and more patio time ASAP.“
“Oly Coffee converted me into a coffee snob. And I love them for that. The people are so incredibly kind and foster a welcoming atmosphere at all hours of the day. It's such a great place that I've made it into my second office! I can't recommend this shop enough!“
“Sophie's Scoops is a hidden gem in Downtown Olympia. Definitely make the trip to try what Sophie has cooked up for you this week! I can't do dairy but I always make an exception for Sophie's Scoops!Definitely get a sundae, because their home made fudge sauce is incredible, their whip is home made and not too sweet, and their sprinkles are delicious! I know that sounds crazy but just trust me on this and try the sprinkles.“
“Wayside has been a plant based staple for many years now. The food is pretty solid, the specials are usually some of the best options you will find there. The base menu is good but for some reason the specials seem to knock it out of the park. This is also one of the few restaurants that makes everything from scratch! I love that! The shakes are the best vegan shakes I have ever had, highly recommended.Dietary restrictions: Everything is vegan!“
“Well executed bar eats w many things grown in-house or made from scratch, including the dough for their buns and peppers for their chicken spice mix. I’ve tried almost everything on the menu, and it’s elevated to say the least. Their Smash burger is BEST BURGER in town, and their fried chicken sandwich beats out State & Central by a few degrees of magnitude. Great local beer selection as well.“
“Awesome little drive through on Rich Road. I was able to clear all the leaves from my yard and the street on just one hazelnut latte (large). I recommend you visit before you tackle any DIY projects or embark on adressing the climate change crisis.“
“I went here for the first time today for my birthday to treat myself. I got four pastries and some tamales. The tamales are so good! I had a half of a pastry so far and it’s so tasty. The older gentleman was so nice. I’ll definitely make this a weekly trip.“
“This is absolutely by far my favorite coffee stand I've ever been to. Always get the best service, conversations, and of course Coffee! And whenever I forget to bring my food with me to work. When I come here on my way you guys always got me covered!“
“Driving through Olympia and found this bakery on google. At first glance, the food didn’t look very exciting but let me tell you, it tasted and most importantly felt just perfect. One of the better gluten free bakery items I have had. I got a Hawaiian scone and the taste and texture were just perfect. Very fluffy and light and very balanced flavors. Loved every bit of it.“
