This place has a line out the door every day, for good reason. Known for their biscuit sandwiches, it's worth waiting in line at least once! We recommend the "Spanish Fly." Yum!

Phinney Avenue is worth a walk: it's on the east edge of Ballard and has everything from interesting boutiques and small restaurants to an art gallery. Recommend starting at 80th and Greenwood and walking south. Diva's Coffee is right at that corner and is a great place to grab a cup of Joe before you start walking.
