Take 5 Urban Market

Wow, super place to grab a bite to eat. I ordered the BLATT, Bacon, lettuce, avocado, turkey and tomato, super great toasted bread! The bread was amazing, everything in between the bread was amazing. Tastiest sammy I've had in a long while. They also had some great looking things in their deli counter and the mac and cheese looks like I really need to go back and pick some up one day. Easily recommend this place.

Love the west coast bodega vibes. Nice people at the front of house, easy to park, it’s on a main road but also in an off street so parking and walking there wasn’t stressful. Breakfast sandwich tasted great, super satisfying. The place is friendly with a nice alt grungy vibe to it. I’d be back!

Best meatloaf sandwich ever. Worth $15? Maybe not. No sides, just a smallish sandwich for $15. Wide selection of lunch options and drink choices, cramped seating in a tiny corner market. Friendly staff, clean and well lit. Recommended.

I walked in the front door and was greeted by a very kind lady at the front counter. She asked if I had ordered a sandwich, but I was only going in because I needed something to drink and it was a market. I said I do not have a sandwich ordered And she replied with well what are we getting? I wasn’t planning on buying a sandwich when I went in there, but how could I refuse? I tried the grilled chicken Italian and it was amazing. Wasn’t planning on buying a sandwich, but I am sure glad I gave it a try. Five stars all around.

The sandwiches were phenomenal, atmosphere was cozy, and the staff (especially the woman at the front) made me feel like I was at home. It’s a quaint spot with a few tables to grab yourself a casual bite. Next time I’ll save enough room to grab some dessert! I’ll definitely be back and it’s now added to one of my regular spots. Feels good to support local businesses like these!

They have a WIDE drink selection that rotates in a new drink weekly. all the drinks are also from a local washington distributor orca beverages. The sandwiches are also AMAZING. I've had the reuben twice and i would rank it my number 2 just behind the one from 74th st ale house. The grilled cheese is simple but the best one i've ever had. Its crispy, has a great cheese pull and pairs amazingly with the tomato soup that comes with it. their mac and cheese also hits being a 1lb brick with a 1/4 of cheese. honestly this place is the GOAT 🐐.

We placed an online order for sandwiches on a night we didn't have time to cook - they were great! I had the vegetarian sandwich - it was so good - yummy eggplant, great slaw. I also had some of my son's grilled cheese on sourdough - yum! So glad this place is back!

Best sandwich I've had in a while. It was my first time in the shop and I should not have ordered the BLATT because now it's all I want to eat, forever. I'll never try any of the other sandwiches.

A neighborhood market full of wine, beer, snacks, and fresh deli. The locals love this place and the deli line never stops. I like that this place has some nostalgic candy no longer available at your regular grocery store, and an import of sodas and beers I've never seen before.

13 years ago I was lucky enough to call this place by employment but having moved to states away and come back every year and the food just seems to get better and better. My first visit I had to have the grilled cheese sandwich with tomato bisque in my God, was it a gift from heaven all of the soups and sandwiches are made here and made fresh and you cannot beat the chefs quality For the price! My second visit I had to have the meatloaf breakfast sandwich, which was absolutely delicious. The slice of delicious meatloaf cheese melted over the top on an English muffin... The perfect world I would be able to eat this every day and I had to have a nice cup of hot cocoa made by the barista. This neighborhood store has become part of the heritage of my hometown of Seattle, the one sandwich I recommend the most is to take five Rubin, but there are so many others to try but if you come here you need to spend at least a week... The macaroni and cheese is one of the most healthy portions I've ever seen in my life! The next thing I'd like to point out is that the sandwich called a BLATT is a must try! Don't take 5, take it all!

Driving by Ballard my son and I got a craving for a bite, and we came across this sandwich shop jewel! Great sandwiches! Prices are fair based on the quality of the ingredients and portions' size. Menu is limited but really great flavors. Service was good and fast. Definitely this place goes to our "favorite go to" list.

One of the most underrated sandwich shops in Seattle. These are quality sandwiches with valid pricing for the quality of the sandwich. Coffee is Olympia Roaster, and it's made well, so it's a decent cup. Even though you walk in, and it's clearly a market with staples for the neighbors to run in and pick up a need such as milk or a box of animal crackers, this is not a convenience store. This is a market that seems to specialize in comfort. In addition to the sandwiches, get prepared for dinner by picking up mac and cheese or lasagna and some tasty dessert as well as a bottle of wine from the wall of wine bottles - or beer, cider, or nostalgic sodas from the cooler. If thinking ahead is too much for you and you're all about the here and now, there are a couple of tables to sit and enjoy your sandwich and homemade soup right there. This isn't a stop if I happen to be in the neighborhood. This is an intentional destination because I'm ready for a pastrami on rye or a Reuben!

Take 5 was our favorite out of the 3 bread pudding we selected for our Bread Pudding Tour Part 1. Nice price $6.99, nice size and nice flavor. This was a traditional style bread pudding with a small drizzle of sauce on it. It had a nice crunch on the edges, moist even without being heavy on sauce, and importantly wasn't overly sweet, which was nice since this was our 2nd bread pudding of the day. To add to it, I had a nice Americano. The shop had a great variety of snacks and sodas. I would definitely recommend this bread pudding!

10/10. Huge sandwich for $13? Sold! This sandwich was MASSIVE. Had the order picked up for work today and the staff was very nice and approachable. We ordered the Sriracha club and their grilled cheese with tomato soup.

This made my top 20 Seattle cuisine list!!! I would recommend for a quick breakfast sandwich. - Very kind staff. -Great breakfast sandwich, eggs were nice and fluffy, bacon was crispy, cheese was nice and crisp with some more melted areas... -Espresso was good, not great, but still a nice combo with the breakfast sandwich -Quick and go vibes, seating wise... (bar stool seats)

Arguably one of the best sandwiches in seattle. Simple corner eatery with a plethora of options - both meat and vegetarian. Assortment of soups and treats. Wait time was a little over 15min but it was worth the wait. Quality meats, fresh bread, lots of flavor and sauces. Thick cut chicken with additional meats, melty cheese, and dripping sauces made up the "Grilled Chicken Italian" sandwich. So so good. They also take orders ahead. Just really solid spot. Definitely recommend if you're in the neighborhood needing a quick bite!

We got takeout from take 5 tonight for the first time and omg, life changing. I was pretty excited to try this place - it's such a community staple and we had passed it so many times and meant to try it. So glad we finally did I had the meatloaf burger, which is probably my new favorite Seattle burger - so juicy with crispy melted cheese and the usual toppings on a perfectly fluffy, crispy ciabatta bun. The patty itself was the stand out, so incredibly flavorful and perfectly seasoned. A total winner. My fiancé had the sriracha chicken sandwich, which was perfectly savory, with moist tender chicken cutlet, sriracha sauce, veggies and more crispy cheese on a bun. YUM!! We got some the tomato bacon mac and cheese and the meat lasagna to share and they were likewise, incredible-and the portions are huge so we have lunch for tomorrow. Tried the carrot cake for dessert and it did not disappoint! Perfectly crusted cream cheese frosting atop a HUGE carrot cake muffin. So good!! We will be back!

Get the chicken Italian sandwich!! Amazing. Reuben also very good. Both had cheese SKIRTS!! I love a cheese skirt. Also, I prefer normally prefer sauerkraut to Cole slaw on Reubens but I have to say it was so good I did not miss the kraut.

So yummy! I was craving a good sandwich for the sunset beach vibes. I found this place on Yelp and was captivated! It's a deli inside a little neighborhood market, so cute. As we were waiting for our order, we saw many locals coming in -- so you know this was a good spot for sandos. We got the BLATT and the grilled cheese with tomato soup. The tomato soup was a little salty for our taste and the grilled cheese had potential for more cheese... but my fave was the BLATT! Bacon, lettuce, tomatoes and turkey on a toasted bun. Of course, we had to purchase some kettle chips and a pop to go with. Perf meal for beach side.

I always come back! Everything on menu is tasty. Music is great. People are kind. Has many grocery items with good selections.

Wow! Discovered this gem today and so happy I did. It's a cute neighborhood market that offers a variety of sandwiches and items from the deli along with wine and other food products. My bf and I ordered the grilled chicken Italian sandwich and it's easily one of the best sandwiches we've had - the perfect amount of meat, great dressing, and flavor. The sandwich also comes with a pepperoncini on the side. Really looking forward to coming back and trying the Reuben, the bbq pulled chicken, and the meatloaf burger that came highly recommended by.

Oh HELL YEAH. This was to die for. Such a cool little spot with so many amazing choices. I went with the classic grilled cheese and tomato-carrot bisque, and my lady went for the sandwich of the day (something with bbq maybe? didn't catch the name). Bless their hearts, they made me the cheesiest grilled cheese I have ever had. My mind is blown, I will be back for more.

Quick pop in here to give a 5-star glowing review! We've been here a few times & enjoyed various items, specifically big fans of the Reuben & the Mac n Cheese. Lovely owners/staff, delicious & fast food.

Posy and I have been enjoying Take 5 food and friendly people for years. The food just keeps getting better - which is impressive - strong sense of creativity and good flavors. -Renee 'Cobb Salad no Bacon'

Favorite sandwich place The chicken Italian one on god it's amazing The staff is pretty nice and helpful

Incredible food and kind service! The meatloaf sandwich was delicious and we got the lasagna to take home for dinner and it was delicious!

This is such a nice neighborhood market with good food. We ordered the meatloaf burger and it was huge. I wish there was more of that meatloaf ketchup sauce, I felt it was missing that sauce for it to be a true meatloaf. Their Mac and cheese on steroids with bbq was absolutely delicious. It came with quite a bit. Their Mac and cheese is baked and has bbq on the side. Their cole slaw was okay, I usually prefer it to be more vinegar tasting but overall great meal.

My friend recommended grabbing sandwiches from this place for a picnic. We stopped by on a Monday afternoon and were in and out in about fifteen minutes. It's a cute little shop with drinks, wine, snacks, and candy. The lady behind the counter was so nice and welcoming. You can order at the counter or online. I went for the BLATT, a BLT with turkey and it did not disappoint. It was a solid and well constructed sandwich. My daughter also enjoyed her grilled cheese. Every other person in the door ordered the apple crisp so it seems like their desserts are solid too. If I was in the neighborhood this would definitely be on the regular rotation.

This place is an absolute neighborhood gem. I've had most of the sandwiches on the menu and they're all delicious. They also have a great selection of interesting beer, wine, dessert, etc.

Perfect grilled cheese. Unbelievable, dripping with quality cheese, browned crispy edges.

Really great food, but pricey for what it is. It's a great neighborhood spot that I'll continue to support, but it's not the best value for the money. The grilled sandwiches are $13.75 before tax and that price does not include any sides or chips. I made the mistake of ordering through chownow, which is the default provider if you search "take 5 market" and click "order pickup" from google. I didn't realize I wasn't ordering directly from the deli and chownow adds a markup of a $1 on top of an already pricey sandwich!

I love this spot! Every single sandwich I have tried is absolutely delicious and the folks who work there are super friendly. They have a variety of snacks, staples, and beverages to grab and go in addition to their large menu. I hope this Take 5 sticks around the neighborhood forever.

I recommend the turkey pot pie soup! I also love their Reubens and the food is so homey

I was having a massive carb/comfort food craving (it is dreary October) and ended up ordering the mac and cheese with pulled BBQ chicken. I will be eating it for the next 2 days. The portion is huge, the taste is out of this world and it met every carb dream I was having. It's a cute little shop, quite reminiscent of my Seattle neighborhood childhood and the service was perfect. Sorry, I forgot to take a photo.

Needs updated hours. They close at 7 not 8 on the menu which is listed. Food is pretty good so they still get a 3 star.

Great sandwich. Meaty, cheesy, toasted. The star deduction was for two reasons; the store was low-traffic but my wait time was almost 30 minutes, and it definitely needs more than the one pickled pepper they provided. But overall it was really good and the gentleman who took my order was nice, I'll be sure to ask for extra peppers on the side next time.

Some of (if not) the best Deli shop sandwiches in WA!! Extremely tasty BLATT, Pulled Chicken, and Meatloaf burger. Would gladly enjoy lunch or dinner here any day.

Damn good turkey bacon avacado sandwich. A little bit pricy but SO DELICIOUS The Blatt is absolutely worth the scratch.

Whenever someone asks for a coffee place or a sandwich in this residential part of Ballard, I recommend this place. I'm a regular always buying their grilled cheese or a daily special. Their salads are so yummy, fresh, and come in big quantity (a salad that's actually filling). Beer, wine, and non-alcoholics available to grab-n-go. And the staff team is so kind, you'll know them all on a first name basis real quick.

Everything is delicious! Just find what matches your taste and order. The soups are always great. The sandwiches are yummy. The salads are very tasty. The menu has enough variety that everyone in my household can get what they want. They also have quite a few sodas to choose from. They carry groceries as well, and they are also good quality. This place has a real convenience feel about while having good products.

I have missed our little corner shop so much in the year that we moved out to do our house remodel, *especially* the breakfast sandwiches, with the crusty melted cheese hanging out over the side. We will never take our source of emergency cheesecake, milk, eggs, bread, chocolate mousse & beer/wine for granted. Thank you! Can't wait to be able to pop in more regularly!

We order Take 5 takeout several times a month and have tried lots of menu items, all of which are fantastic. My kids enjoy the macaroni and cheese and my husband and I have yet to try a sandwich we don't love. Top it off with excellent service, and a sweet neighborhood market feel, what's not to love?

I love this place. They have the best BLAT's on the planet!

Stopped by here on a whim to grab something for breakfast, I've been here couple times over the years for a soup or sandwich and it's always good. Today, however, my breakfast burrito was absolutely delicious. I already want to go back and get another one! Great, fast & friendly service added to my wonderful experience.

Best Ruben I've had. Go have yourself a spiritual experience like no other. A true unicorn of rubens

My husband and I ordered sandwiches here on a whim and man, were we glad! I got the grilled Italian chicken sandwich, which was excellent! My husband got the meatloaf burger and couldn't get over how much he liked it. We also split a very tasty carrot cake muffin. Highly recommend!

A hidden gem in the middle of North Ballard on 70th Street; they make almost everything here from scratch on their limited but very delicious menu. Their grilled sandwiches are unspeakably delicious made by hand and not mass produced. Plus the usual assortment of basic beverages, wines and other necessities. Four kinds of soup made from scratch daily. The pot pie soup is--well, I already gave you the hint. Prices are higher than average, but well worth it. Spend the money here, get the best. Plus they have espresso and the usual assortment of espresso beverages that is better than Starbucks. I'm getting hungry just writing about it. And, no, I do not work here--just a big fan is all.

The gal I was with said I had to give them 5 stars for the BLATT sandwich. Said it was the best she ever had. Loved the nicely grill toasted bread to the amazing avocado. I had a couple bites it was good. Me I had chicken pot pie soup. Good chunks of meat that was just like it sounds. We went to Golden Gardens Park and had a bottle of vino and watched the sail boats go by. Killer day.

Best Reuben of my life! At first I was like 'hmm, why is this taking so long,' thinking it would just be a few ingredients slapped on a couple of pieces of bread. This was my first time here, so I didn't know what to expect. Then I got my sandwich, took my first bite was like 'oh, so that's why.' Freaking delicious things take time! I'm so excited I live right down the street. I'll be here all the time. Everyone was very nice, in a casual, real way. This place deserves nothing less than 5 stars.

Great meatloaf sandwich! I would definitely recommend checking them out! Yum-o!!!!!!!

I have lived down the street from this local spot for about a year now and have been waiting to try it out. Mid-day one work day decided to give it a try and was so pleased! Everything they offer seems so simple and like such great quality. I ordered the Sriracha Chicken Melt after asking for recommendations and was super happy with it! A really great portion and a bag of chips for $15 (including tip/tax) Excited to try other items like their breakfast options and mac and cheese/cold-cut sandwiches! Will definitely be coming back :) PS. my first ever Yelp review because I thought it was well-deserved!

I love sandwiches, how have I never been here before?! Well it's because I'm never in this area of town but I'm glad I was! I ordered the Sriracha Chicken Club Melt and it was so tasty!! It had lettuce, tomato, avocado, and bacon in addition to the items listed in the name. It was slightly toasty, giving the bread a slight crunch which I enjoyed. The chicken was not dry, but rather quite moist, along with the sauces it was an actual melt. If I'm ever again in the neighborhood I'll be grabbing lunch here! The sandwich with a bag of chips came to be $12. They had so many other good menu options as well as soup choices - I didn't get a chance to try, but if the chicken melt is any indicator I'm sure they're all delicious!

This place is a hidden gem. They make delicious warm sandwiches out of quality ingredients and the prices are very fair. There is a small grocery/convenience store there too. Rebecca is a joy to talk to. There really is no other place like this. I recommend the sriracha chicken sandwich. Come check this place out and get yourself a delicious meal.

This cozy corner store is full of local delectables and by looking at it you're unlikely to suspect that it's one of the best soup and sandwich spots in the entire city. The siracha chicken club melt is my ultimate go-to and I always grab a cup of turkey pot pie soup to dip it in. If you're in Ballard do yourself a favor and grab a bite!

Fantastic. This place was a find on Yelp. The chicken soup hit the spot on a chilly day and was perfectly salted and just a little spicy. My hubby and I split that and their house Reuben. It's very different from a traditional one yet didn't stray too far to be familiar. Only thing missing was pickle. We had the ginger tea. Very friendly people. And an eclectic hodgepodge of beverages and baked goods. Highly recommend.

I stopped by to pick up some cider to bring on a visit to a friend. The clerk guided me to some dreamy cider and then I couldn't resist adding a "block" of lasagna to my order and a serving of bread pudding. Wow! The chef is better than some of those at the fancy overpriced places in town. This place is a treasure! I wish it was in my neighborhood!

Best tomato soup and grilled cheese in the area. Highly recommend this place as the food is good and the prices are great.
