A hidden gem in White Center. Great food friendly staff in a laidback cafe setting. Their menu keeps expanding too.

This cookie is soooo good. Strong molasses flavor, good chew and crispy edge. Literally, I can't imagine a better texture.

Quaint little spot with good breakfast & very acceptable coffee. Small parking lot but still worthwhile. They got the eggs-over-medium correct on the first try, which is a win in my book.

I was meeting up with some friends who had a layover at SeaTac and we decided to go to the highest rated breakfast joint before their next flight. Salmon Creek Cafe came up on top and we headed over right when they opened at 8AM. Biscuits & Gravy ($10.45) - The name is a bit of a misnomer since it only comes with a single rectangular biscuit, cut in half and slathered with sausage gravy. The biscuit is kind of dense and crumbly but has a decent amount of fluffiness. The sausage gravy is not the best. with the texture being a bit off. It feels like it has too much fat added and is also a bit grainy, like the flour isn't completely incorporated. Maybe it was broken and not emulsified properly? There's no dominant flavor in the gravy, just a generally creamy sausage aroma. Both the biscuit and gravy seem to be home made rather than commercially bought, which is well appreciated. (3/5) Breakfast Mac ($12.65) - The mac is cooked past al dente, but isn't to the point of being mushy yet. It's only somewhat cheesy since there's only a smattering of cheese sauce, but it's enhanced by a generous amount of melted cheese added right on top. There's plenty of crumbled bacon sprinkled in to add an additional savory kick, and then two sunny side eggs covering the dish, complete with runny yolk. Finally on top is an arugula salad with just a small bit of vinaigrette drizzled in to help cut through some of the richness down below. This portion size isn't that big, but the dish is quite filling. (4/5) Salmon Creek Cafe serves some decent to good breakfast food that's a little different from typical diner fare. I don't normally eat breakfast/brunch out, but I'd visit again if I find myself in the area looking for an early meal. Note: Salmon Creek Cafe charges a 3% fee for using a credit card. They do post this on the door and inside the shop so it's not a surprise. Bathrooms - One unisex room

This was *such* a cute place! Met some friends before their flight out of Seatac. Friendly service, and delicious breakfast food. Our group got a variety of things, all tasty. I had the breakfast mac and cheese, which had a perfect arugula salad with it.....really cut the fat from the mac! We'll be back. :-)

Cozy local spot, busy on a Friday afternoon with locals catching lunch. Had lunch with a co-worker who lives near by. Honestly would not have given this place a shot without his recommendation, but glad I did. Service was prompt and friendly. I tried the Cobb salad with chicken. Just right sized salad with really delicious dressing. Wish I knew what it was. My coworker had a wrap with a cup of soup that also looked yummy. Though the place is small, there is a friendly vibe where folks who were wrapping up their meals got up to clear a table for us. Another table also offered to share a larger table so we could sit. Definitely recommend.

I loved the food! All legit! Servers are friendly. It's a busy place. Parking was easy on street. Ambiance is very casual and noisy. So not for the serious meeting. Restroom was clean. I recommend here!

We tried this place while visiting my daughter this past week and were so pleasantly surprised! We first went in for breakfast with a party of 5, then my husband and I went another two times during our visit. Food: Delicious! The Croque Monsieur is delicious, the Reuben is amazing! And, my husband really liked the Baked Eggs. Everything is so good. The food is prepared quickly and served at just the right temperature. Atmosphere: Small, local neighbor hood cafe. Decorated with art created from local artists, all for sale. Limited seating but they make it work. On busy days, you put your name down on a list and are called up when a table opens up. Service: Friendly and we had no issues. On Saturday morning, it was busier and things slowed down a bit but nothing that would keep us from returning. The servers did their best. Highly recommend stopping in if you're a local! You will not be disappointed.

Really awesome neighborhood cafe with delicious food at a super reasonable price. We brought a few out of town friends here for a meal before their flight, and everyone, including my toddler, enjoyed our food. There was no wait during Sunday lunch time. And the service was personal and quick. We tried: + Steak chimichuri sandwich (4 stars) - thick piece of steak in the middle of toasted bread. +Croque monsieur (4 stars) - a bit on the salty side, but the Dijon mustard and bechamel sauce work well with the ham and cheese. +Green goddess quinoa bowl (4 stars) - vegetarian, healthy and surprisingly filling. +Kid's menu granola bowl (5 stars) - for $5, you can get a small version of the Maple Pecan Granola. My toddler devoured the whole bowl. I enjoyed the granola in particular. I wish they sell them in a bag. Tip: check out the awesome kid's menu, even if you don't have kids Overall, love the spot for brunch/lunch. We will be back if we are looking for some simple and delicious food in Burien or White Center
