03 Mar Merchants cafe — new ownership, new look?
Background on the cafe:
Built in 1890, The Merchant’s Café has been in continuous operation ever since, making it Seattle’s oldest restaurant. In the 1920s and ’30s, the upstairs functioned as a hotel, the Merchant’s Hotel.
Lately, I’ve been seeing a lot of all day / late night construction going on at Merchant’s Café, and the rumor mill is buzzing that a previous manager from Last Supper Club has purchased the cafe and is changing it to be more neighborhood and family friendly — including better food, outdoor seating (nice outdoor seating — no smoking out front), and better hours.
Stay tuned for more details — (or if you have some — please share! I’m having trouble tracking down the new owner).
