Ba Bar in Central District

I like the great ambiance and casual yet nice interior decor of this neighborhood place. I like this place is the diversity of customers there: bikers, families, students, older people, and sport fans.

It is at the same time a coffee shop where you can have breakfast, a Vietnamese restaurant, a French bakery, and a cocktail bar.
Macarons are more than decent.
You can also find a cake named Tropézienne, a French Riviera speciality, like a brioche with custard.

They are open from 7 a.m. to 2 a.m. most days, and until 4 a.m. on the weekends.

Ines Patisserie

Ines Patisserie has relocated. Open Wednesday through Sunday 8am-4pm, it is over the weekend that the Bakery offers a larger variety of pastries. Croissants, Madeleines, Palmiers… they are all delicious.


And worth to mention that there is not a huge abundance of places in Seattle where one can enjoy a very good Espresso. Ines Patisserie is one of them.
