I love their fancy drinks! I get the B&O Espresso Martini all the time. Their eggs Benedict is great. I have a thing for eggs Benedict.

The best dessert place in Seattle

This cafe will be one of many reasons that makes me wanting to move to Capitol Hill. This is simply a great hang out place with friends. Funky decoration seems to be unorganized and random, but everything coming together just makes it look and feel right. The menu selections are big, including breakfast, lunch and dinner. To me, the dessert menu stands out the most! I just have to wonder why I did not discover this place earlier?!

What I ate:
  • ****

    I can’t remember the name exaclty, but it is ???? Muddy River. It is made out of chocolate mousse (my favorite), rum and cream. Very chocolatty, fluffy and with “a lot of” rum… By the way, the portion is pretty big, which ensures you can sit there for longer time and have a great chat with friends.

Hip dessert place

I looooove the chocolate pot at B&O. When I get a chocolate craving, B&O it is.

The darkened atmosphere with decors lends itself a slight european feel.

I gave it a 4 star instead of 5, because of painful parking in CapHill and also it tends to get quite busy, which means I usually have to wait 10 mins or more.

What I ate:
  • *****

    Slightly molten chocolate cake melts and seeps into your tongue pores and I find myself in utterly bliss. haha.. dramatic but true. Not too sweet, but warm and fluffy with a hint of whipped creme, this dessert is del-delicious!

Great late-night spot

B & O features fabulous desserts and coffee at reasonable prices. It has a dark yet cozy atmosphere. I have found it to be extremely useful on a late night or with a date when we need something to pick us up, and perhaps a drink. They make good drinks to go with dessert. The only downer is that parking is tough at night in the neighborhood.

great dessert, but also a good brunch option too!

i think people talk a lot about b&o as a great dessert place (and it really is!) but i’m also a big fan of their brunch options. the food is really good, and the place is just as cute by day—a nice choice for a leisurely-enjoyed brunch :)

What I ate:
  • ****

    creative twist on pancakes… thinner and smaller than your typical pancake, but i thought it really brought out the flavor of the apples and the crispiness of the corn meal.

great late night coffee and dessert

One of my favorite places to go late night for coffee and some sweets. B&O is located on Capitol Hill and is always lively on the weekends – full of a very eclectic energetic crowd. They offer a variety of drinks, food, and some of the best desserts. There breakfast/brunch is also quite good. Fun spot to chat and relax.

Good place for a late-evening meal

I came here after some drinks at the Monk across the street and really liked the chill and dim atmosphere. The quality of the food is better than one would expect, especially since food isn’t really given top billing on their menu.

What I ate:
  • ***

    Good spices, but not enough chicken.

  • *****

    Really meaty, nice and spicy, full of tasty vegetable chunks. The bread was both soft and crispy, with fantastic texture. One of the best sandwiches I’ve had in a long time!
