Relaxed courtyard/outdoor area in Roslyn!Ordered the "smash" burger and fries. The fries were terrific, really crispy and tasty! Just wish there were more fries with the combo!The burger patty was cooked nicely, but had a lot of onions/peppers inside the ground beef... which I'm not a huge fan of.Service was really nice and surprisingly fast for a weekend.The outdoor area is very kid friendly and there's a specific section for dogs (not allowed in the main area). Will be back!

Charming bookshop & cafe with a small selection of quality outdoor gear on offer as well.Staff were friendly, service and food were very good - fresh and well prepared. Lovely space downstairs to dine in, take away available too - we did both and enjoyed all of it!Great selection of all genres of books and games, delightfully eclectic. Well worth a visit and a browse, highly recommended.

A favorite spot here in Roslyn and worth a drive! Upstairs the coffees, breakfasts and sandwiches are excellent and the curated bookshelves are so fun to peruse while waiting for your order. There’s just something amazing about a good book store and this one is a gem!Downstairs, the restaurant features craft cocktails, local beers, an incredible wine list (opus 1!?!?) and the perfect menu from excellent burgers to salads, terrific appetizers and a great happy hour menu too! You can also sit on their back patio when it’s warm, or in the Roslyn Yard and enjoy the day while being served by their friendly staffIt’s also a great place to see what’s happening locally with their bulletin board!Don’t be surprised if you meet the owner. He’s often there waiting tables or helping upstairs with sales. This is a great spot!

I loved this place! Such a great visit, we went back. Great outdoor area to seat down and forget about the time, just enjoying the present with good food. So good to know that in such a small town with few options, this place offers healthy choices and more... They have a bookstore/gifts also. A gem in Roslyn and it will be part of our memory in this great trip.

We came here for a coffee and it turned into a family hangout with 15 people. The speak easy on the bottom floor was perfect for our big group and we were able to play games, make a mess and feel comftorable. Coffee was awesome and the sandwiches were a huge hit. There was an awesome menú and a huge selection of books. Spend some time at the bookstote and parouse through the shelfs to find some hidden gems.

4/2022 still a welcome spot. Great service, good selection of fresh sandwiches and salads for lunch. Lots of good books, and sundries available too. Perfect place to grab a bite, wander it's shelves and relax. 7/2021Regular stop because it never lets us down. 2019-Finally came for dinner and cocktails and was just as satisfied as lunch. Cocktails were good too. Meatloaf and chicken we're both cooked perfectly. Surprised by the amount of carrots added to the meatloaf. Sauteed veggies with both were really good. Tasty bites! Quick friendly service. Wonderful dog friendly outdoor patio.

Great stop for a coffee and quick bite! They have books and games and a few clothing items to buy (or backpacks or water bottles). The lemon dressing was good!

Friendly staff, outstanding food with nice variety, very decent prices. And if you just want a good latte they do that well too. There's a big bar service and dining room downstairs (sometimes quiet live music) that I often prefer, although the cafe seats upstairs and the outdoor dining are great as well.

Ate dinner downstairs at a local's recommendation. Food was good though my medium rare steak was underdone and under-seasoned. Still, service was friendly even though they were hopelessly understaffed. We enjoyed our time here - just know it's a little like eating in a friend's basement (if your friend offered live music.)

Great spot in Roslyn, the food is tasty and the staff is excellent. They have amazing banana bread and a really fun vibe. Can't wait to go back!

Our experience here was close to being a total disappointment.The service was good even though we disagree with the servers opinion on the quality and quantity of the food.Long story short:I wanted to try the $18.00 gumbo. I hate to assume so I clearly asked the server if it was a small or big portion. The server assured me it was a large serving and that it was amazing.I was served a small shallow dish of 70% white rice and a small portion of gumbo on top of the rice.My wife laughed when it was served and said I should have ordered 2.No rolls or bread or side salad included. Just a small shallow dish of white rice and gumbo for $18.00!!!On top of getting what I consider to be an over priced dish... it lacked any real flavor. I even had them add jalapenos and it still lacked flavor. :(My wife ordered the BLT and wanted fries but she was told that the deep fryer was too much of a hassle so she had a choice of potato chips. She did like the turkey on the BLT but there was only 2 small pieces of bacon.

Such a gem of a cafe! This place has so much character from the coffee shop/bookstore upstairs to the restaurant with gorgeous bar downstairs. I had a delicious salad and black bean soup (vegetarian) and my kids had beautiful kids meals that came with a fruit salad or veggie option. The fruit salads were a hit and so were the sundaes that came with meal.

If you’re into expensive cold sandwiches, screaming kids while the parents sit at a different table, so-so service, and a hair in your food, this is the place for you!Used to love this place, but now I’ll eat elsewhere when I’m in upper county.

What a great find in downtown Roslyn! The brisket potato skins (pictured) were so good, we had two orders! Chris, our server, was personable and attentive during our couple of hours though. Cannot ask for more in a small town. Will definitely be back.

Amazing restaurant bookstore Cafe, in a little tiny town in Washington where everyone made me feel like a local and welcome. And the staff were conversational and polite. And the food was delicious and the drinks were even better. I wish that this type of hospitality existed in Seattle but I have yet to find it. I will come back here again and I recommend it to anyone in the area.

We love Basecamp and James @beardedbarkeep. If you're looking for handcrafted cocktails this is the spot! They're open daily now which is awesome. A great place for adults & families.Daily drink specials and they always serve a bartenders choice. Happy Hour is 3 pm - 5 pm.Upstairs is great if you're looking for something a bit more quiet and coffee shop vibe with the bookstore and causal seating. Coffee & baked goods are available at 7 am with Breakfast & Lunch served from 8 am - 3 pm. Beer & wine available during lunch :)Go downstairs where the bar opens at 3 pm and on Sundays at 12 pm. .Trivia on Wednesdays at 6 pm and live music on Fridays & Saturdays from 7 pm - 9 pm. Dinner menu starts at 5 pm.The meatball bruschetta is amazing!

This place has a great set up for any age, outdoor movies take place during the summer nextdoor where you can order food and drink make for a magical experience. The bookstore upstairs has a wonderful selection as well as a cool spot in the back to plan your next hike. The food came quickly and there was plenty of options to have a great drink with some friends while playing games or watching sports.

While we were walking around on Friday night we heard music coming from this place. Fantastic band. The place was full and had a kids play area adjacent to it. Very large. Pets are welcome outside.The next night we decided to eat there. Unfortunately there was no band. The food was just mediocre. The service was not very good. We were little surprised only because they were not busy at all.It was not horrible, but I wouldn't go back. There's too many other good restaurants in Rosalyn.
