Whether you're in the mood for live music, happy hour on the patio, or head down in a good book, Stone Way Cafe is really the best place in the neighborhood for all of the above. Their food is where it's at, with breakfast burritos in the morning (stuffed with crispy bacon, egg, veggies, and pico de gallo), and feel-good-you're-eating-your-greens dishes like the roasted butternut squash and kale tacos in the afternoon. The Wi-Fi is consistently fast if you're looking for a great place to hunker down and work, and they generally have four or five Ballard beers and a rotating kombucha on tap if you're looking for a low-key spot to hang with friends. Oh yeah, there's coffee, too. KARA TIERNAN
