I've been going to this store for 2 years on a monthly basis and highly recommend it…read more PROS: - Great location, small parking lot with space in front and back. Parking is usually very tough so plan accordingly - fresh food, hot food, well stocked. They do seasonal items too which I really like. - they've started hosting small food truck events. Tres sandwich truck is also available sometimes. - friendly staff and always nice, inviting and accommodating! Very well trained. - Store is small but always clean and well maintained. You can get grocery items too. - minimal frozen section CONS: - they've increased the prices on everything without any increase in portion! Since the children took over, they've hiked up prices twice within a year for, what I've learned from folks, due to "wanting more profit margin." These people are greedy and charging restaurant rates for grocery story sushi and food which is despicable and makes zero sense. - the new owners did an Asian food trucks event inside their already tiny parking lot. I feel like they are doing everything hoping something sticks. Why crowd such a small parking lot? I went to check them out but the prices were atrocious so i left. The simple mom and shop vibe is now gone thanks to these nonsense price increases that are just for profit. I hope the old owners return so we can get the mom and pop shop feel back and friendlier prices. Maruta Shoten has lost its identity and I cannot call them affordable or a mom and pop shop anymore. I'm very disappointed and hope common sense comes back to these managers and they go back to what the prices were.

Are you looking for something to do this weekend? If it's been a while or you haven't explored the…read moreawesome and funky Georgetown neighborhood in Seattle yet, I recommend you start out by grabbing a tasty drink and some delish bites at BROTHER JOE.

Not to mention, the monthly "Art Attack! Art Walk!" is happening today from 12-9pm. Expect it to be extra busy in Georgetown today. Happy weekend!!! :-)

This place is quite a hole in the wall, and is located in the Georgetown neighborhood very close to…read moreAirport Way, which really gets busy in the morning and peak hours. There's no public restroom nor dedicated interior here; just several outdoor tables, and you order your stuff through their window. Menu mostly consists of both phin-dripped coffee and banh mi sandwiches of various kinds. One of my closest friends enjoys coming here every once in a while to enjoy both their coffee and banh mi. From a previous visit here around 2023 with friends, I do consider their banh mi sandwiches as one of the best in the Seattle area, and they need more recognition for it. This time I only got coffee for both me and my sis. Servers were really happy to tell me what's in each kind of coffee I asked about, their own recommendations, and how I wanted each coffee (hot/cold, whole/oat milk, etc.). They were also very accommodating when I wanted to suddenly switch from iced to hot coffee for both drinks since it was cold, wet and rainy outside. I got the pho spice latte for myself, and the da lat fog for my sis. Both drinks were really tasty and I enjoyed them: - In particular, the pho spice latte has some of the ingredients in regular pho broth like star anise and cinnamon, along with cardamom and fennel. It had such a strong citrusy fragrance when I was drinking it, and had that recognizable hint of pho broth. The espresso still stands out, and drink was perfectly balanced with the strong cinnamon. - My sis's da lat fog also had a strong cinnamon taste and aftertaste but without the stronger coffee caffeine. Oolong tea aroma is apparent, and the drink had a nice, sweet and vanilla taste to it. It's different from a London fog which has earl grey tea instead, so this one was a unique take on it. On a warmer day, I can see myself coming back for their banh mi sandwiches yet again, while having their coffee on the side as well. This is a place I'd put on my list to make sure family, friends and visitors have at least once!

I tried their lemon grass tilapia sandwich, keeping in theme with trying something slightly new. I would actually get this protein for future banh mis if it was more prevalent! Flavor wise i was left wanting a bit more but I'm a fan of how they don't go overboard with sauces. They cook it to order so this takes 8-10 min! Their drink menu seemed pretty creative as well. I would try that next time! Note that it is a walk up window only! Mine ended up becoming a car snack

I ordered the breakfast sandwich and it hit the spot. The vibe is laid back, service was friendly, and it didn't feel overly fancy in a way that makes it lose its charm. Just a solid, local spot you feel good spending your money at. Would definitely come back.

The Olympic sandwich had way too many onions on it and was a little greasy for my liking. Maybe it was my fault for not reading the description prior to ordering. Will want to give this place another try and order another wrap and maybe a salad in the future. Located in Georgetown so it's pretty close to our office, will be back soon!

Definitely worth going here for breakfast. The food, beverages, and especially the service are amazing and just wonderful. Looking forward to the next time I get to enjoy the delicious food at Hangar!

We read the reviews and knew that we'd be in for a long wait but decided to come by anyway and ask…read more It was about 11pm on a saturday and we were told that the wait for food would be 45 minutes. I think there were less than 15 tables so it seemed strange that it would take that long but decided to try it anyway. The setting for this cafe is pretty nice so we were anticipating an equally good experience with service and food. The food took 1 hour and 20 minutes from when we places our order to when it arrived.. the server was very nice and offered free drinks but at that point we wanted to just have our meal and leave. It was even more disappointing when we tasted the food and found it mediocre. The crepe we ordered was undercooked on the inside. We probably could have gone grocery shopping and whipped this up for less time and money. The prices are pretty high considering that they're serving breakfast food. We really wanted to like this place :(

The flavors were unique without being too over the top (although slightly on the heavier side), which I appreciated. I also got an iced tea and really loved it, it was refreshing and a great pairing with the food during summer. The space also stood out as a good bar setup, especially if you're looking for somewhere casual to watch sports. Overall, a solid spot for creative dishes, drinks, and game-watching vibes. I'd come back again, especially with a group. Would also note the staff was nice, but the food was a little bit of a wait.

A great, somewhat hidden gem tucked in the insudtrial area of South Park. I came here with a few…read morefriends after a 10 mile run so I was super hungry. This place does get BUSY. I got here at 11 and there was a line if 10 people with every table full. The line doe move quick, but be prepared to eat outside (or take it to go) during peak times. I got the smashwich and fruity pebbles rice krispy. We also got the matcha shokupan donut to share. Everything was excellent. The house made sausage patty on the smashwich complemented the whole sandwich well; it was crispy, fatty with amazing flavor. Pro tip if you have the passport app you can save 20% off! Only downside - I think their space is somewhat awkward for seating and overall flow. However they are doing what they can with what they have so it's not a knock on them per se, just putting it out there that the flow is a little off especially when busy.

The biscuit was good but I wish they gave you the option to warm it up. The rice krispie s'mores was not too sweet and the density was just right. I wish they did smaller sizes so you could try the different flavors or a smaller option. The brown butter bourbon latte had just the right amount of carmely, richness to it. I wish the service was more consistent. The first cashier seemed upset and wasn't very friendly. The second when I ordered coffee was much more pleasant.
