Over the Years- Good Food, Good Comments
"The menu is perfect...the soups rival the best in town... and
on top of all this good ambience and food, there's jazz, folk,
and ethnic music..."
The Weekly
Carol Brown
"Still Life in Fremont Coffeehouse, a truly wonderful place to
sink into an overstuffed chair with a hot cup of caffeine on a
dreary day."
The Weekly
"From the day it opened it was a classic...it features good art,
good musical entertainment, and - remember these? - good vibes.
Leave reflecting on your good fortune that there is, in fact,
still life in Fremont."
Seattle Best Places
"The Still Life is what so many, many other restaurants never
become. It is alive."
Seattle Times
John Hinterberger
"Start with breakfast at the Still Life in Fremont
Coffeehouse... for delicious pastries, vegetable-loaded pies, or
the ethnic breakfast special."
Sunset Magazine
"Ingenious salads, hearty soups and gumbos, overflowing
sandwiches and oodles of 1960's counter culture revisited by
their contemporary cultural progeny. Some of the best $5 meals
in the city."
Seattle Times
John Hinterberger
"The beating heart of funky Fremont... you have to try one of the
homemade soups. They are affordable, change on a daily basis and
tend to be highly creative... great baked goods. The salad of
the day is mandatory..."
Seattle Times Magazine
John Hinterberger
"Non-radical artists, disenchanted yuppies and real-life
intellectuals brood and schmooze at big, cozy, mismatched wooden
tables."
The Weekly
"This breaks some new ground in local jazz venues, and I hope it
continues... the Still Life is probably the most relaxing public
establishment in Seattle. It carries a good beverage list,
sweets if you're inclined, and excellent soups..."
Earshot Jazz
Bruce Kochis
"Magazines, newspapers and games encourage lingerers in this
relaxing, attractive cafe, but what encourages serious eaters
are the wonderful sandwiches, fine desserts and hearty soups."
A Gourmet's Notebook
"A little more than a year ago the pastorally named Still Life
in Fremont opened in a former office building and began
attracting everyone from anarchists to pinstriped money managers
for a soulwarming bowl of carrot-ginger soup and inspired slice
of peachplum pie."
Times/PI Pacific Magazine
Paul Andrews
"Fremont is an appealingly funky neighborhood for a
postbreakfast walk, and the Still Life Cafe is another tasty
food stop."
The Northwest Palette
"A classic coffeehouse, Still Life in Fremont, serves pastries,
sandwiches, and soups, accompanied by music on weekend
evenings."
Sunset Magazine
"The Still Life in Fremont has the best carrot cake around. It
is fresh, moist, and very carroty, quite generous in size, and
topped with a lovely cream cheese frosting whipped to
perfection. Perhaps my favorite sweet treat in Seattle."
