Purple Café and Wine Bar

We love their spicy prawn frites. The sauce is incredibly flavorful. However, we wish the dish included more shrimp and fewer fries, or even better, replaced the fries with some bread to soak up the sauce. The happy hour menu offers some great options. The drinks were decent; we had the Old Fashioned and margaritas. The ambiance and service were both lovely, and the location is excellent.

I considered giving Purple 3 or 4 stars but had to elevate to 5 for one simple reason: they randomly have THE BEST PIZZA I've had in Seattle. Simply fantastic! Will be back for the pizza and wine.

Came in with my husband and both the service and food were wonderful!! Chloe was attentive and genuine. Her device was impeccable, choose quickly grabbed plates/cutlery when she realized we were eating “family style”. She boxed our pizza and didn’t just bring the box to the table. We had the short rib pasta which was also sooooo tasty. Seriously the best pasta I’ve ever had. Best purple experience ! We will be back

This is a beautiful restaurant. So much atmosphere and seating availability. The food was great. The chopped salad is something I crave now.

My boyfriend and I came for a late dinner this evening and got the two grilled cheese meals pictured. Alexander (our server) as well as the chef that evening were absolutely amazing. My boyfriend wasn’t aware they’d added bacon jam when he asked for stripped bacon and they immediately corrected the meal and were overly kind whilst doing so. We had a great night and appreciate this location going above and beyond for their guests. The employees here are definitely made for customer service! thanks again to Alexander for the great date night! We will be back. 10/10 recommend.

Amazing food, wine, and service!! We had the best time! The staff is so knowledgeable. The crab cakes, short rib pappardelle, and steelhead were all incredible.

We really enjoyed dining at the new Purple on Stone Way in Wallingford! Great addition to the neighborhood! Excellent service, nice ambiance and the food was amazing! We had the Beets and Goat Cheese starter and the Steelhead and Burger for our main dishes. Everything was so tasty! Big shoutout for the burger!! Truly one of the best burgers I’ve ever had! Looking forward to going back soon!

Had a great time eating dinner at Purple Cafe with family. I like the changes in the decor changes they've made. W We had the Brie for starters and while I'm not a huge Brie lover, it was amazing. For dinner I had the steak and frites which is one of my favorite dishes anywhere. It was cooked to perfection, the way I liked it. Our server was very attentive, filling up our water glasses often and checking up on us. They have a huge wine selection of amazing wines, which we tried several and all were amazing. The entire evening was awesome and all the staff were very friendly and helpful. You can park on the street or in the parking garage which is right next door. Highly recommended!

We went here for Father's Day, and everyone really enjoyed their food. I had the Chunky Avocado salad and loved it so much. It contained a wonderful combination of textures: soft avocado, crunchy quinoa and pepitas, plus frisée. I was worried it wouldn't be enough food, but it was surprisingly filling after sharing a cheeseboard. The server was knowledgeable about wine and shared a recommendation to pair with the avocado salad. It was lovely. I would definitely come back here. It's a good place to keep in mind for dinners with extended family.

My favorite happy hour in Seattle. My husband and I have been here many times (both for happy hour and regular dinner) and I look forward to it each time. The location is great, as it sits right between Wallingford and Fremont and is easy to walk or bus to from the north side of the canal (there is a bus stop right across the street). The service is impeccable- the servers are always prompt to take our drinks and food order, and are always happy to provide recommendations. They always swing by just before the end of happy hour to make sure we can get any orders in before happy hour ends. One thing to note is happy hour is only Monday - Friday until 5:30 PM- would love to see this extended to Sundays! As for the food, their happy hour cheesy bread and mini pizza is to die-for and perfect for sharing. Their regular size pizza is also delicious and allows for leftovers (and who doesn't love a giant mozzarella ball featured on their margherita pizza!). Their menu is also pretty diverse with fish, meats, and pastas in addition to the pizzas, but my favorite part is the in-line drink pairing recommendation- particularly when I'm feeling indecisive about choosing between beer and wine. For dessert, the tiramisu is great because it's big enough to split between multiple people and really balances the espresso and cream levels well. Ultimately, I highly recommend for just about any occasion: after-work happy hour, date night, drinks with friends, or nice family dinner.

Solid place to have some good food and drinks. Really good pizza and of course their baked Brie. Full bar and friendly service.

This is my favorite location that Purple has. It's very cozy and is always busy! Their food is always delish, I always go for their pizza or pasta, you can never go wrong! Additionally, their crème brûlée is such a great dessert option, a classic and delicious! I've been here too many times to count! A great place to celebrate birthdays!

Great food and service. As fans of the downtown Purple Cafe location, we were not disappointed.

I've always loved Purple Cafe & Wine Bar, the food is delicious and atmosphere is so lovely! I just recently went for brunch and everything was amazing. Loved the Short Rib Hash and the Mimosa Duo! The Eggs Benedict also looks amazing, I'll be trying that next time! Service was super friendly too!

Wow!! Just great food! But the worst service ever! Sad restaurant that has several locations! Total lack of people! Front to back!

We came here Mother's Day and had a great brunch! Food was really good. Majority of places on Mother's Day end up being overly booked and pricey but this was somewhat of a last minute reservation and had great ambiance.

I've been to this Purple location 3 times so far this year. It's such a pleasure to have an established Northwest restaurant in my neighborhood. The service is excellent, from greeting to bill. And a manager is always on the floor: viewing, helping, bussing, etc. I know this is a sign of a good business. I want to particularly recognize Sammie as a fabulous employee. She's gregarious, engaging, knowledgeable about wine, and efficient. We can't wait to come back and sit on the patio!

A welcome addition to the neighborhood. Good food, service, and atmosphere, definitely will be coming back. Had the avocado salad, vodka fusilli, pizza with hot honey and cured meat, spicy shrimp appetizer (tip: ask the kitchen to make this into a main by adding pasta, will absolutely be doing it next time). Having their wine specialist on hand that night and executive chef coming out to greet us were very nice touches, customer delighter that up leveled the whole experience. Great for a date night, celebrations, catching up with friends, or wanting a nice meal or coming in for some wine or a drink.

Absolutely delicious food and really great service at this fun restaurant. We ate there before when it was Fiasco, which we loved, but this new place is awesome. Only suggestion would be to add at least one chocolate cake or cookie option on the dessert menu. The tiramisu and sea salted caramels are great, but we were craving chocolate cake.
