Healthy Meets Boozy at Boots Bakery and Lounge

Boots Bakery & Lounge. The name begins with boots, not carpet slippers. It's a metaphor and a business name. In a place like Perkins Restaurant, it's the customer that sets the tone, but at Boots, you have to relax into the vibe. It doesn't grab you with: "It's an excellent day"; more like: "We are walking our talk here, the food is local, mostly organic, hand crafted, so if you will chill and settle into our vibe, you will benefit". During a breakfast visit with my bro-in law, Vic, that's exactly what happened to me. I had to soak in the vibe of Boots. The hanging lights made of used blenders, the repurposed seating, and food case that held hand-crafted food made "that morning" from fresh from a local sources - hence no menu. The barista, and food server, Matt, took our order, and within moments had our warmed food on the table. The lattes arrived quickly, and I noted Northwest roasters, Doma, Indaba and Evans Brothers. One of the cooks, Chris, came out and talked to us about Boot's philosophy, and how the Booze bar also brings in poetry slams, and scrabble events. All our of food had a Boot's strongly-flavored signature. The benefit of strong flavors is that it takes less food to feel sated, and both Vic and I felt entirely sated, and pumped with good vibes by meal's end. The Booze bar looks entirely welcoming and old fashioned, and has planted a seed to come back to try a signature drink. All of Boot's food is vegan, and many are gluten free. My recommendation is to be adventurous, try something new, and let Boot's atmosphere and food work its magic on you. Boot's FaceBook. Pictured are Chris and Matt, and some of the food we ordered. Not pictured was a delicious pumpkin waffle with real maple syrup!
