ᴡ MillerFebruary 12, 2016Great atmosphere and wide variety of food options that all looked great. Chai latte was real nice!
Matt BentonSeptember 18, 2015Had the Cowboy Casserole, a breakfast you're not gonna find many places, and an espresso. They were both great. Nice area to sit outside and serving breakfast all day is always an awesome idea.
Maria NicholJune 7, 2016The Saigon sandwich is phenomenal! Their drinks s d espresso, especially the lavender latte and the blood orange spritzer were bomb. Their tacos are great too but could use a little more meat filling.- Russ GloriaJune 6, 2013Everything is delicious. Servers are great! Manmosas are yum! I got a lavender latte to go...mmm. A must see and do when you can! Sit outside and enjoy the view! I will be back :)
Lindsey SJune 25, 2016Known for crepes, but they have some other amazing stuff on the menu and are not a typical cafe. Definitely try the specials!
Scrappy FaceJune 26, 2012Hungry? Try the Citizen Salad or the Vietnamese Style sandwich. They also have delicious coffee and wifi! If it's cold outside, check out the upstairs area. If it's warm & sunny, sit outside!
Sherry RenDecember 10, 2015The crepe doesn't look good but tastes good! Like the flavor of tres leche and the crepe Madame is delicious!
Joey HernandezOctober 13, 2014great place for breakfast/brunch/lunch. the korexican tacos were delicious and the biscuits and gravy portion was huge
Gabbi NielsenDecember 3, 2015Cowboy casserole was a party in my mouth. 😍😋 also obsessed with their breakfast sandwich. If you're ever debating going here... GO.
BommySeptember 4, 2014Go early to avoid the wait. Definitely order the biscuit breakfast sandwich and coffee. So yummy.
Bill TngJanuary 7, 2017Delicious crepes. Also helped that it is right next to the four points by Sheraton and Hamptons suites.
The breakfast sandwich on a biscuit with a veggie patty is pretty spectacular. Add a Citizen Mary made with sake and a latte and you have a breakfast of champions.
Brian StraussOctober 8, 2014Fantastic espresso and great industrial style that turned a "to go" order into "to stay".
EceMarch 7, 2018This is a coffee shop / bar. They offer nice cocktails in the evening. Try Nutella mocha 😍
Jennifer EdwardsJune 29, 2013We are from Texas, this place is awesome! Love the atmosphere. Wish we had a place like this back home. Great food. Awesome view
Jack ReevesMarch 15, 2015Stop by for coffee, breakfast, brunch, lunch, or a cocktail. Also, dogs are allowed! Pretty much the coolest cafe around.
Cheryl CorbinSeptember 30, 2016Steps away from the Fourpoints Sheraton. Excellent breakfast choices and good coffee. Try the ColdBrew.
Everything is amazing here. Citizen Crepe and Nutella are my go-to. Don't forget maple latte to go.
Great coffee and food. A standard for breakfast but try their new happy hour. Great drinks at happy hour prices from 5-8 pm.
Karthik RamanDecember 2, 2017Korean tacos were great and good portion. Large servings of coffee. No wait at 10 am on a Saturday.
EDUARDO ROMEROApril 8, 2016Try the month's special French Toast. Amazing! Their cold brewed coffee is excellent too.
Happy hour from 4-8 pm everyday. The Moscow Mule is $5 and made with Rachel's Ginger Beer. Two of these will do you.
Greg RatajikMarch 25, 2012OMG the crepes are just amazing! The coffee is also very good. The first place I'm stopping on my next coffee crawl!
Kristy BolsingerMay 22, 2011Couldn't like this place more. Get the cranberry mimosa and grilled cheese sammy (no tomatoes for me) and you will leave super happy and a bit buzzed :) Read more
My favorite is their applewood smoked bacon crepe. So good. Coffee is excellent too. :)- Linda ShepardsenNovember 14, 2017Great place for brunch. My favorites are the turkey crepe and korexican taco.
- Can't go wrong with the Citizen crepe. On weekends, try the bread pudding-style French toast.
Seattle PatronDecember 15, 2015Coffee is just as amazing as the atmosphere. Wish they had more vegan options
Mikian SellemJanuary 1, 2011The B.L.A.T. & BBQ pulled pork is ah-mazing! The chips are yummy & homemade. Order with a side of their blood orange mimosa! The owner here is super personal!
Azin GhafarianJuly 21, 2017Love the cowboy egg casserole. It was delicious , complete breakfast meal.
Sit on the patio and drink delicious bottomless coffee from a bowl-sized mug
Elizabeth L.January 15, 2012Uber-cute cafe! Delicious crepes and sandwiches. Affogato is tasty! Upstairs retro theatre seats.
Jacquie RooneyJuly 28, 2015The brunch dishes are a la carte, but the price is right. Wait can be long for big groups.
Uber SeattleMay 25, 20122 patios. Free wifi. And oh the breakfast sammy is the bet thing I have ever put in my mouth. #uberapproved
Crepe Madame for breakfast. Citizen Sandwich for lunch. Coffee all the time.
- L TAugust 22, 2011Great coffee, Sean is a great barista. Why not stick around long enough for a mimosa and the specialty pancake.
Try the Turkey Sandwich - Grilled onions were a nice add...i put some of my chips in the sandwich, cause that's how I roll :)
Paige PauliFebruary 26, 2012Watch out laptop users! Despite continuing to buy coffee while working, they'll kick you out on weekends after pretending to be accommodating.
Shane McSimovApril 3, 2010Biscuits and Gravy rock as well as an awesome breakfast sandwich and top notch service. Only suggestion is tell more people that you have awesome food!

"Go for one of the reserve coffees. While a little more expensive, it's all single batch brewed. Additionally buy a plastic white cup instead of getting a paper one."
