Citizen Collective

"Citizen's beer garden is one of the largest patios in town, with astro turf carpeting, fire pits, and a separate outdoor bar. There, you can grab great drinks, including a frozen rosé that tastes like skydiving into a rosemary field, followed by tasty Korean-Mexican food like bulgogi nachos. The best part about the whole operation is that the space is so huge that you could feasibly take it over with an entire loud group with little to no notice." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley, gabe guarente

"Lower Queen Anne’s all-day cafe is a popular place in the warmer months to chill outside and play cornhole. On the menu is a selection of brunch items, including some solid savory waffles and sandwiches. The cafe also introduced Citizen Campfire for the 21-plus crowd, which includes DJs on spring weekends and a series of pop-up events." - Harry Cheadle

"The cafe interior at Citizen is a pretty small spot for coffee and waffles to fuel a sleepy morning catch-up. But the exterior? It’s a full-on party. Their beer garden is one of the largest patios in town, with astroturf carpeting, fire pits, and a separate outdoor bar. There, you can grab great drinks ranging from watermelon Aperol spritzes and cucumber lime coolers to a frozen rosé that tastes like skydiving into a rosemary field, followed by tasty Korean-Mexican food like bulgogi nachos, bulgogi tacos, and bulgogi burritos. If it wasn’t clear, Citizen serves some delicious bulgogi. The best part about the whole operation is that the space is so huge that you could feasibly take it over with your entire group of friends with little to no notice." - aimee rizzo

"We love this Queen Anne cafe for everything from morning banana waffles with a latte to afternoon grilled cheese and a beer. We also love them for having one of the largest and most unique patios in town—one day we’ll win that impossible carnival-style basketball toss. Citizen has counter service too, so it’s ideal if you want to grab takeout or a coffee to go and enjoy it outside, underneath a roof, and next to a heater or fire pit." - aimee rizzo
