Ballard Kiss Cafe

"First off, the latte was way too good! Definitely heartwarming and delicious. The big cheese sandwich was pretty good too. The cheddar and pepper jack blended together well. As for the the hot and spicy, it was definitely the best vegetarian sandwich I have had. And lastly, the mother clucker with the tomato basil soup was amazing! The mother clucker sandwich alone was meh but when u dip it in the soup it was really good! Definitely recommend coming here if you are nearby!"

"What a cool spot! We were visiting the Ballard area with our 120lb mutt and looking for a place to grab a bite and a beer and found the Kiss Cafe. Amazing and friendly staff helped get us get settled in quickly even though there was a bit of a wait. They have an amazing selection of beer and knowledgeable staff to help you find what your looking for. We ordered the BLT with a side of jambalaya and Porky’s Revenge with side of soup. All of it was excellent! We will be back for sure and thanks for providing a sanctuary for both humans and K9's."

"good service. pretzel tasty best thing on menu. maybe short staffed server was seeking all tables. restroom past end of counter."

"Ordered the Hot and Spicy sandwich and it was fantastic! Some sandwich places have vegetarian options that are either lacking in flavor or aren’t very filling, but this sandwich was loaded (literally but also in terms of flavor). Atmosphere and service were good. A really nice stop for a casual meal and a beer or two!"

"Ballard Kiss Cafe is a cute cafe near the Locks with fare that focus on sandwiches and a variety of beer. While kind, our waitress lacked beer knowledge, prompting an arrival at the bar. When I asked the bartender what beers they had, he responded, "The ones in the fridge," which elicited an eye-roll. However, things quickly turned around after I specified that I was looking for a stout, which the bartender promptly supplied. The sandwiches were absolutely delicious. My partner and I had the Chipotle Roast Beef and the Half Sandwich Combo with jambalaya, both excellent offerings. The roast beef is tender and juicy, while the chipotle sauce provides a nice kick. Unfortunately, the tomato basil soup is far too innovative to be called tomato basil soup. Their use of coconut milk made it taste like a curry that needed to be more delectable offering. Other than that, the crack pretzel was an ABSOLUTE standout. I'd come just for a pretzel and a beer. Overall, this cute sidewalk restaurant is dog-friendly, with delicious sandwiches but so-so service. I look forward to returning."
