Oddfellows Cafe & Bar

I like the Linda’s chain of establishments. The service we had was very good and I do like the atmosphere. I had a grilled salmon special and while it was good, it was not as good as I had hoped. The portion is small for the price, which is not bad if the dish is delicious. I just did not get that from Oddfellows.

Special tonight is Parisian Gnocchi, surprisingly lemony. House red is an excellent blend.

I’ve been here for happy hour as well as dinner. I wasn’t too impressed at the happy hour menu (only had limited options with prices not even worth it) compared to many other places I’ve been too. However, their dinner is much better. I took my girlfriend here for one of our date nights on a Friday night. We got seated surprisingly fast. The ambiance is nice for people or couples looking for a semi casual place to hang out. She ordered the pasta (which was a bit too salty) and I ordered the pork sandwich (which was good.) We also ordered 2 cocktails which were pretty decent. The noise level was pretty loud, but that’s probably just because it was in Capitol Hill and there’s always a certain «type» of people in Capitol Hill. The staff was friendly and professional which is a plus. Also, I came here for coffee one morning and let me tell you, they have the BEST coffee around. Seriously, I’ve been to many coffee places all around Seattle, and this is one of my faves. Overall, Oddfellows is a great spot.

Came here to visit and our friend took us to Oddfellows. Great service, our waitress was very attentive and definitely had suggestions since we were kinda out of it since we just got in from our flight a few hours prior.
I had the lasagna with zucchini and spinach and other veggies, it was great. Good portion too! Loved the atmosphere, I just wish their tables on the patio were a bit bigger, it was a bit stuffy with three people to a small table.

I’ve lived in Seattle for 4 years, and I’ve been wanting to eat here ever since. Why did I wait so long?! I brought some out of town guests, as well as my daughter and her friend to this lovely little restaurant last weekend. The interior is relaxed, cute, and kind of trendy in a good way. The hostess seated our party of 5 almost immediately after we ordered our first drinks… impressive for Friday night in Cap
Hill. We ordered the stuffed eggs as an appetizer; so delicious! Everyone really loved their entrees, and did I mention the drinks? I’d love to tell you what mine was called, but I clearly had too many because I cannot remember. It definitely had some tasty ginger beer and good whiskey in it.
My pasta entrée didn’t knock my socks off, but I will definitely be back to try something else, and have another one of those tasty adult beverages. Great little gem in Cap Hill.

Ahhhh I love this place. It’s very spacious and you can’t go wrong with the food, other than it being a little expensive. I had the B.L.A.T and thought it was delicious, I added turkey and it really hit the spot. Highly recommend trying this place out.

Way overpriced. Way crowded. Way worth it.
Such a good vibe. It just feels like you’re in Kinfolk magazine when you eat here. Your stomach will feel good and your ego will be boasted. Enjoy the beautiful building, people, and food. Wonderfully flavored cocktails and drinks. Nice casual service.
Be aware that they menu changes often and depending on the time of day.
I love this place.

As someone previously stated, Oddfellows is hipster haven. Exposed brick, check. Coffee/​pastry bar, check. White dudes with beards, check.
Came in for the first time during happy hour with a friend. Aside from being told (by a chalkboard sign) to seat ourselves but then not getting served for 15 minutes until I had to get up and ask for a menu, overall it was not bad. Once we did have service, our waiter was pleasant and took our orders.
The happy hour menu is quite limited. The $ 5 frites, $ 8 hummus/​salad plate, and $ 6 cocktails we ordered were all affordable, tasty and brought out to the table very quick. It’s a cool spot for a quaint little happy hour, especially if you want to feel like you’re inside of Instagram.
Will come again to try their other menus.

Oddfellows is a bit under rated for the neighborhood especially, the food isn’t crazy expensive and screwed up (ahem Quinn’s, bone marrow isn’t served sweet, carrots aren’t picked salty with stakes), they’re great with wine, picking well priced fantastic ones from Spain and France, the space is very inviting. In the summer it’s irresistible to not want to sit outside with the windows open. And the highest complement a restaurant can get is that they are consistent (Smith?).
Get the chicken, you can’t beat it. And have them recommend a wine.

Oddfellows is one of my favorites on the hill for uniqueness as I absolutely love the vibe but I always struggle with getting excited about the dishes on the menu so I generally stick to their delicious cocktails and small bites.
The French fries and charcuterie plate are two staples worth trying. It’s a great place to go for a date or with a group of friends during the day Sat/​Sun some the tables are communal.

I finally made it here for lunch — meh… My BLAT was pretty average and the waitress seemed very preoccupied with prepping service for dinner (at 2pm).
For your $ 20 you can do better than a mediocre sandwich, plain salad and a diet coke.

The coffee shop shares a little area in the bookstore. In term of decoration, it is well organized, warm, bright, and clean. However, for me, it is a little bit noisy (maybe just happening during my visit). Thus, I don’t think it is good for studying or mind concentration. (Minus 0.5). The staff here is friendly, helpful, and fast. I ordered Blackberry Soda, Mint Tea, and Meat Sandwich. The drinks are pretty awesome (plus you can refill soda and regular tea). The sandwich disappointed me much. It is blank, cold, and hard to chew. (I did ask to warm it up) thus, minus another 0.5 star. Overally, I might come back for the bar and definitely recommend friends coming for drinks and group meetings.

Oddfellows is something straight out of Hipster Heaven. Cute brick walls, a little coffee bar, men with beards and trendy button up shirts, girls with edgy tattoos… Definitely a Cap Hill kinda spot. And you know what? I loved it. It was sooo cute.
Décor: As previously mentioned, Hipster Heaven. Brick walls, a cute little coffee bar with cute hanging lights, rustic benches, big open windows… I would eat somewhere like this for the aesthetics EVERY DAY if I could.
Service: Pretty standard service! Not super memorable but not bad in any way, either. We had two or three waiters come in and out of our table. Our main waiter was very accommodating in that he waited for the fourth person in our group to show up and then he didn’t push us to order when we all got carried away catching up and forgot we still hadn’t decided on what to eat…
Food: This is kind of where I was surprised. I expected the food here to be mindblowing. It was just… Okay? Definitely not bad, but definitely not what I expected either. I ordered the Eggs Bennedict with Ham & Avocado, but I ended up getting ham, avocado, AND tomato even though I didn’t ask for the tomato. Bleck. The Eggs Benedict was just okay, not the best I’ve had. The potatoes that I got with them had great flavor and were seasoned really well, BUT they came kind of cold which made them not as crispy as they should’ve been. OH, and before our main dishes came, one of my friends ordered the beignets for the table to share, and those were really good! You have to give those a try.
I definitely would come back to this place just because I can’t get over how cute it was, but I don’t think I’d order the Eggs Benny again — I’d for sure opt for a different dish just to give them a better chance to «wow» me with their food.

The happy hour drink, Hanky Panky, is well worth the $ 5. The deviled eggs were great-​tasting, and I recommend the ricotta fries that come with creamed tomato sauce. So very good.

GO FOR: DINNER WITH OUT-​OF-​TOWN VISITORS
Oddfellows is a nice introduction to the dining scene for those that haven’t experienced Seattle. Prices are approachable, the menu is seasonal, the aesthetic is local farm-​to-​table and the cocktails are fancy. We girls do love our «fancy» cocktails.
Drink: The Blanche
Eat: Cured Meat & Cheese or Meatballs with Polenta and Mascarpone
After dinner you’re in a prime location to bar hop or get dessert at Molly Moon’s…always a tough choice!

Oddfellows had been our new Go-​To breakfast joint in Seattle the past several months. We used to make our weekend trips into Seattle from Issaquah and go to Lola’s, but Oddfellows sense of creativeness and overall aura has kept drawing us back.
The staff is your typical Capital Hill staff, except much nicer than most other restaurants. We go for breakfast on Sundays — the wait can sometimes be a little longer, but this just goes to show it’s good.
Their porchetta sandwich is good — lacks a little flavor but the overall presentation is great and moist meat!
The breakfast panini is about the same — a good sandwich and fulfilling but needs a hint of something to make it really good, maybe some pesto or something, not too sure.
Our last visit — their daily special was a Croque Madame, and it was good. Like really really good. I’m sad they don’t have it as their menu item.
Always get a biscut with the jam — yum.
During summer, they have the outdoor seating too which is nice to grab a drink and people watch. Their flatbreads are good and they have good fries as well for a little snack.
Before you leave, always get an Oddfellow’s cookie to go. You don’t regret it!
Two thumbs up for this place and all at a very reasonable price!

What an amazing place. We were planning to go to the Sunday market on Broadway and were. Little hungry. We always saw this place as we parked and decided to give it a try.
I’m sure glad we did.
We sat at the bar which was nice. The atmosphere is like an old barn inside but painted in cape cod style. The servers were all very friendly.
Ordered the Baked Eggs which was really good. The eggs were cooked perfect with some cheese and ham. Really a great dish and especially for the $ 9! Added a biscuit for $ 3 which was also really good and warm.
The drink menu is very expansive and many different beers as well. Only shortfall is no Grey Goose but I’ll go back anyway!

Oddfellows is cool! My wife and I love this place. Great food with a fun ambience.
Their food is amazing. No matter if it’s just french fries or the daily special, it is always good. They use local, organic, sustainable ingredients when possible. And the menu does change.
We come here often for dinner. The place is big with lots of tables, and a little brick wall patio in the back, great for the summer! It seems like they are always busy here, but we never had to wait long for a table for two. Definitely a great place to go during the summer months.

Came here during my undergrad years and had a killer lasagna for dinner. Came back 4 – 5 years later for Saturday brunch, and was pleased yet again! This hipster place definitely does embody the Capital Hill Seattle vibe. Seating is in one huge open spaced room, which got a little stuffy but much preferred to seating outside where I would’ve shivered miserably. It was pretty loud though, made it hard to hear sometimes during our conversation, but that’s the ambiance. I vaguely remember it being quieter for dinner time. Loved the wooden tables decked with small vases and flowers. Very clean.
What I got:
Baked eggs with ham, cheese, and spinach – Served in a skillet, I sighed at the melted Gruyère cheese on top that was full of crisp delight on the edges. The eggs complemented the salty ham, and had only very slightly runny parts while the rest of the yolk was cooked, which I liked. Loved how the flavors all came together in this dish. $ 9
Beignets with jam – 5 fat, doughy pieces doused in powdered sugar for $ 5. They hit the spot. I thought the jam was ketchup initially since it looked so red, but I usually prefer a chocolate dipping sauce with a powdered doughnut. Nothing overly special about these, but they offer that sweet finish to your meal. I only had enough room for 1 or 2 after my meal.
They also use Stumptown coffee, so of course got myself a yummy latte with latte art.
Seattle, you really do breakfast and coffee well. Fab start to my day.

Such a beautiful and laid back spot for brunch. Maria and I opted for seats at the bar since a lot of table spots were reserved. We were recovering from an awesome night out and needed some delicious food ASAP!
We came to Oddfellows and I absolutely love the ambiance here. There are beautiful brick walls, big glass windows and lots of natural light. It’s a very beautiful older building and I fell in love with it! Since it was absolutely amazing out this past weekend, the windows were open and it had a lovely airy breeze about the restaurant. My latte had a latte leaf art in it and it was delicious. The food here was decent but it took a little bit of time. I ordered the eggs benedict which was okay. My favorite part of the dish was definitely the potatoes on the side– those are delicious! We didn’t take part in ordering any brunch cocktails as we had more than enough drinks the night before… however the brunch drink menu did has some enticing options! Overall, a very charming place and would love to come again. I am curious to try other things on the menu next time I’m in town!
