Lydia from the Easy Street Cafe gets a lot of ink in today’s warm-n-fuzzy Seattle Times portrait of a visit to The Junction. Even if WS Blogger Spouse and I only get around to chow at Easy Street every few months, she always greets us as if she saw us every day. That takes talent (and heart).
The people who work their are cool and the service and food is decent but I wish they had more burners in the kitchen to speed up your food order. It gets very busy in their and you have to wait for your order. So be prepared to wait at least twenty minutes if you go when they are full of people. I guess they are hoping you’ll browse and buy a CD or something else while you wait.
We love Lydia!! My husband and I will sometimes go in late to work and meet there on a weekday morning (sneaking in a ‘couple’s breakfast’) after I drop our son off at school. The best crowd is during the week – by far! Not too crowded and a little slower paced than the weekend.
We’ve never had to wait anywhere near 20 minutes, but on the other hand, I don’t think we’ve been there during peak times … we tend to shy away from crowds as much as possible.
Sorry, comment time is over.
