First time here, though we've driven by dozens (hundreds?) of times. Busy at 9am on a Saturday, as you'd expect, but not crazy busy. We were seated quickly, had coffee before even sitting down. Order was taken a few minutes later, food arrived in 10-15 minutes. Irish omelet was delicious! Friendly staff, no complaints.

Love this hole in the wall. I’ve drove past it every day for the last two years finally stopped in on a Sunday to eat great food they close at 2 PM on Sunday, but it was well worth it. Cool artwork all over the walls. Just a neat little place underneath!the west Seattle bridge.

Classic diner cuisine. No espresso drinks of course. Coffee is fine. We arrived at 8a on a cold (16F) Saturday morning, very few patrons. It was packed by the time we left around 10a. Founded in 1938!

Well my friends, here's a great place to have a bite; breakfast, lunch, and dinner. We stopped in for breakfast, and the ladies were inviting and held great breakfast conversations. Didn't really expect much but I found a nice little corner to have a quality breakfast and a chance to be silly in the morning. The traffic wasn't bad but this place is located near the industrial area of the Port of Seattle so there's some big trucks in the morning. I still really enjoy the restaurant, nice job Chelan Cafe. Oh and by the way this place has no ties to Lake Chelan WA. I wish I love Lake Chelan.

Super like this place! The food is standard diner food. I recommend the biscuits and sausage gravy. Also good sandys and fries. Fun Coke Cola memorabilia. Plenty of seating. LOVE that the bar has Golden Tee and is basically open all the time. Staff is usually friendly, usually. Could maybe be a bit quicker with service, but you can't really beat the food for money here. Plus, the main dining is a large room to service when it full and busy. Parking can get full, but it's because people like this place. It's a great price point, full portions, and its yummy! No real complaints, only my belly is too full!

Love this spot. Drove by for years and it’s such a solid little diner. Haven’t hit the lounge yet but one day!

This place is always what you expect, friendly and fast service and good food. It's not fancy, it's diner style food done well. They are also great with kids and less crowded than many other hot spots in West Seattle.

I was in late at night at the Ebb Time Room, with no food. It's a quintessential dive bar, of the best kind! Crusty bartender, pull tabs, nothing fancy for drinks. Everything that I love in a late-nite bar!
