"A pint-sized breakfast restaurant in West Seattle known for being a welcoming place for LGBTQ people. It closed at the end of 2024 after more than a decade in business due to rising costs and challenges in maintaining affordable pricing amidst a minimum wage increase." - Harry Cheadle
"Funky breakfast spot closed due to financial issues after the minimum wage increase, plans to convert into an event space." - Harry Cheadle
"Bebop (formerly the Admiral Bird) is a funktastic West Seattle diner with a flower shop in the back and a rack of neon-pink hoodies in the front. It’s like if a car with too many bumper stickers became a restaurant, and we’re not complaining. The crispy and sometimes eccentric waffles (one variation has Coco Pebbles baked into it, another is called the Kate McKinnon) are satisfying, the bacon is perfectly cooked, and the vibes are family-friendly. Bebop also hosts events like a monthly sober brunch and a silent reading party." - Mark DeJoy, Harry Cheadle, Eater Staff
"Bebop Waffle Shop is, thankfully, a really good place for waffles. Their belgian-style wedges are fluffy and yeasty on the inside, with a golden crust that still stands up to maple syrup and their phenomenal salted cinnamon butter. And the breakfast sandwich, layered with a thick patty of egg, cheddar, bacon, and a zippy turmeric mustard aioli, is also a preferred morning meal route to take. Pair it with a cold brew banana smoothie or an iced mocha topped with Cocoa Puffs. " - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley, gabe guarente
"If you like your waffles a little on the thicker side, you should make it a priority to visit Bebop Waffle Shop in West Seattle. Their belgian-style wedges are fluffy and yeasty on the inside, with a golden crust that still stands up to maple syrup and their phenomenal salted cinnamon butter. Their breakfast sandwich, layered with a thick patty of egg, cheddar, bacon, and a zippy turmeric mustard aioli, is also a great morning meal route to take. Pair it with a cold brew banana smoothie, an iced mocha topped with Cocoa Puffs, or a carafe of mimosas, and enjoy them in their retro diner-inspired space that has a flower shop in the back." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley
