Liberty Cafe — Restaurant in Renton

Never have I felt so compelled by a place as to leave a review, but my time there this morning was nothing short of delightful. I had called ahead to ask about menu offerings due to a dietary restriction and the owner took great care and time to address all questions I had. I arrived to the worlds friendliest barista with the worlds coolest apron collection and again was treated so kindly in conversation. The cafe is beautifully and cozily decorated.

Anyway, it's still worth a try. Perhaps to-go orders are more quickly...

Adding a bit more detail per owner's request. I came in on a Sunday morning to eat some breakfast and have coffee with friends. We ended up getting two breakfast sandwiches, a cup of soup, and two Americanos. The employee was helpful and willing make a breakfast sandwich even though they were out of sandwiches. It took a while to get our food. I think about 15 minutes. When we got there, there were no customers but people did start to come in when we were waiting for our food. The coffee and food was okay.
