What People Are Saying About 14 Carrot Cafe (The)

In Short – A typical Seattle neighborhood breakfast joint where young couples, families and groups of friends gather in an airy double storefront for diner grub. The clientele is fashionably disheveled, especially at weekend breakfast. The fried potatoes are piled with cheese, sour cream and salsa and the Tahitian toast is stuffed with creamy tahini before grilling. Both cinnamon rolls and coffee cake are sweet additions. – – –
Editor's Tips
- What to Drink:
- Choose your beverage from the outdoor coffee cart while waiting in line--and get another once you're seated.
Sourdough pancakes are to die for!

I recently visited 14 Carrot Cafe while in Seattle and loved it. My friend suggested the place and hyped it up so much that I wasn't sure what to expect. I am here to say that it lived up to the hype.
The food was flavorful, service was friendly and the prices were very reasonable. I had the standard Two Eggs breakfast with bacon and felt it was the best bacon I've had in a long time. My friend ordered the sourdough pancakes and shared them with me. They melt in your mouth! A third friend ordered one of the specialty omelets (I don't remember which one) and he also thought it was incredible. We stopped many times during our meal to say "this is the best"!
It's a family run business with a good vibe. I've already passed on a recommendation to my sister who will be moving there soon. Love it!
- Pros: Fantastic breakfast
Not worth wading through all the smokers outside

The long wait outside among all the smokers from the adjacent office buildings wasn't worth it - gave up and went elsewhere.
TERRIBLE!!!!!

My girlfriends and I went in for breakfast and I immediately thought "stinky,kind of run down". We stood there for a couple of minutes and no good morning, I'll be with you in a minute. It was "you can sit any where." The waitress looked like she literally crawled out of bed not to mention she was eating at the table across from us. She brings us our food. It wasn't good and I had a hair in it! GROSS! She did take it off of the menu which made up for the rest of the poor service. I will never eat there again and will tell people how unprofessional it was for them to send a man running out behind me asking why I didn't leave her a tip!? Who leaves a tip for poor service and hair in their food?! They need to call Restaraunt Makeover on the Food Network!!!!!!!!!!!
THE WORST!

My husband and I ate here once and will never go back. I am not a picky eater at all- I will eat most anything and be happy. When I think of this place I get nautious.....seriously. It was the most disgusting place I have ever been to. My husband got some special that was a turkey benedict. It came out with a burnt english muffin, with turkey deli meat, and a milky sauce (not hollandaise) that was all cold. I can't remember what I got, but I do remember I took 2 bites and I was done (the first time in my life not finishing my breakfast!) It was soooo bad. We still joke about it to this day because it was such a bad experience.
Don't leave anything behind

There is an interesting "lost and found" system in operation at this restaurant. I left my friend's birthday present under our table and came back two days later to find that it had indeed been found and put behind the counter. But it was no longer there. The beer (personally carried back from Australia, and unavailable in the US) had been drunk and the other items discarded. If it had been taken by another customer, well OK, but to actually have been rescued, only to have been stolen by a staff member is just a little disappointing. The food has always been a little bland, and the espresso bar outside overpriced. So I was looking for an excuse not to go back. I have asked the manager to institute a simple "found item" policy - it is called "keep it for a reasonable length of time, be reasonable, and then give it to your staff".
