The Fireside Room - Maltkiln Lane

Great breakfast spot. Had shrimp and grits. They were awesome.

Cool place. But a ghost town at lunch. It's pretty boring if you're the only couple in the place. If you like that, then it's perfect!

I've visited the Fireside Room on 5 separate occasions in the past 2 years and have enjoyed it each time. I've attended the Silent Reading night multiple times (the first Wednesday of each month). I usually get to sit in a cozy chair in front of the fire where I usually order a glass of wine and a meat plate. In the past month, I have been here twice; once for a wedding and once for the Jazzy Brunch. The Jazzy Brunch was delectable! Jazz playing, while I visited with my friends over mimosas and a tiered platter of various cheeses, meats, and toasts. Our server was extremely kind and kept the coffee and mimosas flowing!You can order meats and cheeses for $9/plate, or a 3-tiered platter for $24. Their toasts are absolutely delicious as well; we ordered the avacado and onion. The french toast was great as well; all their bread is very tall! Tip: the french toast comes with jam only. If you order it, make sure to ask for a side of syrup.I took off one star because we arrived early and the woman at the booth in the main restaurant area was very inattentive to us and anybody else that walked in. Honestly, it's not that big of a deal, but it's nice to have a friendly and warm personality to greet you, rather than someone who doesn't look/act like she wants to be there. All in all though, we will definitely be back!

Perfect spot for a low key amazing cocktail that takes you back to the way back machine! We loved it! Beautiful decor and priceless!

Gorgeous bar in a charming, old-world hotel with actual fireplaces (perfect for those dreary, rainy Seattle nights! . Note that there's no food served here before 5pm except a bowl of nuts, so something worth considering if you arrive hungry. Drinks were good albeit a little pricey. We stayed on for dinner (from the restaurant directly across the bar called Stella . The hazelnut crusted steelhead trout was good, but I would not recommend the pappardelle ragu because the pasta was overcooked and mushy instead of being al dente. It also lacked spice which I think would've vastly improved the dish. Service at this bar was great and waiters were very prompt. On the whole, we'd probably come back for drinks but not dinner.
