What People Are Saying About St. Clouds Food & Spirits
The Owner
St. Clouds Food & Spirits
Owner
"Building community by bringing people together around great food" That's what we do here at St. Clouds. Our upscale casual atmosphere & welcoming spirit encourage people to come together to break bread. As an urban neighborhood restaurant, we offer both traditional comfort food & contemporary seasonal cooking. Dinner 7 nights a week and a killer brunch on weekends.
Happy Hour: (1/2 price all drinks) in the Cloud Bar weekdays from 5 to 6:30 p.m. We also keep the urban vibe going with LIVE MUSIC Friday, Saturday & Monday nights, with music from jazz and blues to Latin and contemporary.
Catering from St. Clouds is creative,unique and focused on hospitality-warm, attentive, personal. Rather than a list of options and menus, we will design a menu and service style to fit your event exactly, resulting in a one-of-a-kind occasion with the freshest and most flavorful food.

The Scene
Owners Paul Butler and John Platt named the place after the orphanage in "The Cider House Rules," hoping to impart a sense of warmth and welcome. Locals duck into the dimly lit piano bar to see familiar faces, then slide over to the dining room for dinner. Servers are eager and informative, even offering an occasional sample of wine.
The Food
Simple home-cooked meals are the draw. Start with the near nirvana-inducing portobello pizza (request the chicken-apple-sausage topping), or the bread salad with sauteed shrimp, dotted with tart pomegranate. The aptly named "Home for Dinner" section of the menu offers a succulent herb-roasted chicken. Or choose to go "Out for Dinner," which roams the world for flavors and ingredients and changes seasonally.

This is a great little find if you're ever in the neighborhood. They truly serve up some serious comfort food, and a great burger! We came here for a friend's birthday for the first time a couple of years ago, and halfway through dining there was a power outage! The staff was great, and nobody felt panicked, but they began lighting candles and it turned into an even more intimate setting. This is a must-dine establishment during the summer as the cool air can stream through the restaurant and you really feel as though you've found somewhere that is not typical of Seattle.

We love St. Clouds. We went there before having a baby and now it is one of our favorite places to eat out. The food is always great and the service is friendly. The outdoor garden in the back is a real treat in the summertime.

Great neighborhood joint, and always welcoming of you whether you are dining with a crowd or alone. Good food and great drinks as well, if a little on the expensive side.
