While attending a Yelp Elite event at Dimples Café, I was able to sample their Traditional Poffertjes (Dutch mini pancakes), Nutella & Strawberries Poffertjes, and their fresh, handmade stroopwafel - A true smorgasbord! Upon leaving, I had to grab a stroopwafel to take home. The whole experience here though was great!
For the Yelp Elite event, I arrived right around 6pm on a Tuesday. I saw plenty of street parking but I ended up parking about two blocks away in what appeared to be a city parking lot, near a bank, and made the short walk over as I'm not too familiar with Kenmore. Inside it is bright and clean with a large bar to sit at and where you can watch the poffertjes and other delights be made, as well as several tables and chairs throughout. I was struck by the bold blue and orange colors throughout the interior - I loved it!
I'll tell you right now, their coffee is legit VERY good! Do yourself a favor and get yourself a cup of their cold brew and ask for the stroopwafel syrup, or better yet, get a Stroopwafel Latte! The Poffertjes are a delicious way to start your day but they also offer a variety of Egg Dimples if you want something with protein. Of course, you can order a combo of poffertjes and egg dimples to get the best of both worlds! I also saw they offer toast with different toppings as well as Greek yogurt, which you can add toppings to. As far as I can tell, Dimples Café has breakfast covered.
For this review, I ordered their Oreo Stroopwafel. Stroopwafel is a Dutch treat consisting of two thin, crispy waffle cookies filled with a gooey caramel syrup, which Dimples handmakes fresh, in-house. The twist on this stroopwafel was half being dipped in chocolate and topped with Oreo cookie pieces. This was delicious! The caramel syrup paired with the chocolate and Oreo nicely. Do yourself a(nother) favor and grab one of their stroopwafel as you sip on one of their lattes, cold brews!
Dimples Café is such a cute spot in Kenmore serving up a unique perspective on breakfast! I really enjoy how the business itself is 100% family run - The owner, Lyon Lascu, along with his wife, his mom, and his dad run it. They're incredibly courteous, friendly, such genuine people - If you can get a moment to talk to them, they're incredibly nice and passionate. I don't come up to Kenmore often but I know I want to come back soon and grab breakfast and satisfy my impending stroopwafel craving! read more
