Located in an affluent satellite suburb northwest of downtown Seattle, Serendipity Cafe, advertised as a family friendly restaurant seemed more like a bar with poor lighting. Maybe there are two separate sections and I missed the main dining area, because I was seated in a booth by the bar. It was mid afternoon when most restaurants can be slow but the place was empty. Decided to stop in anyway for a burger, fries & salad. Bartender was friendly; service was fine; food was good but definitely overpriced at $33 including tax/tip. Limited street parking; cute neighborhood; walkable; families hanging out but also some homeless transients roaming around the corner. Overall OK but would not recommend & would seek better value elsewhere.

Fully vegan

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Stopped in for a quick early lunch. They were serving their lunch menu at 11:30 which was great! Enjoyed a French dip with fries. Some of the best fries I’ve ever had. Service was great I was alone and sat at the bar. Great atmosphere. I’ll be back.

Smack dab in an adorable neighborhood. This place is too cute. Kind staff and yummy food. What more could you ask for?
