I stopped in here at random while on a quick business trip. Yes, the food took awhile, as all the haters mentioned, but it was totally worth it. The ingredients were fresh and the flavors were excellent. The service was also outstanding. I had the cheesesteak, which was chewy and gooey, as it should be. Writing this is making me want to walk back across the street and get another one...

Best biscuits and gravy I have ever had! Not even a competition...and that's saying something, because I've always been a huge fan of the B&G at Endolyne's and the 5 Spot.

Everything here is made from scratch...even the ketchup, which makes for a truly unique and tasty experience.

Yeah, it's small...deal with it. I have the advantage of working directly across the street, so I can easily gauge the crowd. But still...small is good. It feels like having breakfast at a close friend's house...if you were lucky enough to have friends that cooked like this.

Meander's is everything a good hole-in-the-wall should be: it's cozy, intimate, local  and incredibly tasty.

This place looks like the inside of my head. It is just pure alcohol cheesedick chaos, replete with zebra stripes, mounted animal heads, chandeliers and ludicrosity... It is genius, excremental overload of the highest degree...just like the noises blaring cross my mental radio waves. Needless to say I love it....every inch.

I've been coming here religiously for about 6 years. I've since moved to Seattle, and have always missed this one. I've never had any complaints about the service, and I love that they carry spirulina as a supplement. Most of the ECS branches don't...

This is and always will be one of my first stops whenever I come back to Bellingham...

The Cask

My first time in here...hands down, the coolest place I've been in West Seattle. The name, "The Cask" threw me... I figured it was just a wine place, which it most assuredly is, but the beer selection is phenomenal! Dozens of bottled domestics and imports, and even a few taps, which is rare for a wine bar.

The atmosphere is hip, dark, and very cool. The hardwood bar reflects the  red lights overhead. The music tonight is a chill mix of old blues, with a little Dead.

This place is perfect for a classy, yet unpretentious drink after dinner on a date...or after anything else, for that matter.

I am an instant fan!

I've been a member of Anytime Fitness since they opened their first Seattle location in Fremont. I've been a big fan ever since, frequenting the Bellingham and Vancouver, WA locations as well. The West Seattle location is among my favorite. The equipment is the best around, and the abundance of natural light and fresh air give it a bright, comfortable atmosphere.

It is always clean, and the hours, of course, are convenient. My only complaint is that there is no shower...which makes it tough to work out before work...but still, it's a great place, overall.

A hole in the wall...a diamond in the rough...a well-kept local secret. Lee's is unassuming, unpretentious, and unparalleled. The 7-flavor beef is on my Top 10 list of all-time Favorite Meals. I've never found anything else like it. It is pointless to try to describe it, so I'll just say this: Try it!

I love the quirky, ultra-eclectic vibe of this place. Brick walls and mismatched lighting, old-school video games and big old couches. There is always great music and the sandwiches and chocolate chip cookies are awesome and fresh (duh!)...

As a real estate professional, I have worked with Meg for several years and would happily refer my clients looking in her area.  I have found Meg to be not only knowledgeable and professional, but, more importantly, kind, funny and easy to work with. Her knowledge of the Seattle real estate market is vast and detailed, giving her clients everything they need to find exactly what they're looking for.

This place is great! I wasn't expecting much from the outside, but was pleasantly surprised by the classy, comfortable interior. The coffee is great, they have a good selection of pastries and excellent breakfast sandwiches. The free wi-fi is a huge bonus.

I'm now back for my second visit of the day. Still very much excited about the non-stop 80's music.
