About this restaurant

Great for brunch
Charming
Neighborhood gem

No Mo' Cash
Heads up!
In order to provide the safest work environment possible for the team we will no longer accept cash. We gladly take Visa, Mastercard, Discover, American Express, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and other forms of touchless payment.

The award-winning Skillet Diner opened in the Capitol Hill neighborhood of Seattle in 2011. We’re a neighborhood joint doing our best to make the place feel relaxed, service attentive and easy; the food approachable yet focused. We use fresh, locally sourced ingredients. The style of food is similar to what we’re known for on the airstream …the difference? we have so much more room! Items range from our fennel-crusted fried chicken and waffle to our burger with bacon jam, arugula, and bleu cheese, to our legendary kale Caesar salad.

Seating policy: We require your whole party be present to be sat.

Best brunch in Seattle! The bacon jam in some of the dishes is incredible, but you can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. I recommend Skillet to anyone!

Really lovely service! I was able to get one of their cocktails as a mocktail and I was checked on frequently. I got the breakfast burrito with fries and since it was my birthday I was treated to beignets! Lovely all around and I’ll be back next time I’m in Seattle!

The service was great, super quick and friendly. The food was bland and not worth the $20 plates. The syrup was like sugar water. You can’t skimp on syrup when you’re a breakfast joint.
