Oh My. The Chai is a little piece of Heaven here. When you walk in you can smell the wonderful aroma of the Chai spices being prepared for the most delicious beverage you can have. My husband had the vegan enchiladas too and truly enjoyed them. I love to shop here for gifts too. This place is an Olympian treasure.
While I'd known about this place for years, I'd never stopped by until a month or so ago. What a wonderful place - good food and lovely atmosphere. I took my 4-year old granddaughter there yesterday. I pretty much had to drag her out of there - she found some little friends to play with, and ate every bit of her brown rice and beans. I'm quite sure she's going to be asking to go to lunch at "TRADLITIONS" frequently :-)
Great feedback for the shop and cafe alike! This is the epitome of Olympia with its colorful spirit, values displayed both in decor and business practice / service, and connection with the community through events, and of course, through food! Outdoor seating only right now, and I definitely can’t complain! Beautiful views of the Capitol and Capitol Lake and the little park right next to the cafe. Fresh coffee, baked goods, oatmeal, enchiladas, lasagna… tried a lot over the years and it’s all super tasty:)
I had the avocado delight, and true to its name it was delightful! With the included side salad, the portion was perfect. I love the ambiance and the staff is always friendly. It’s a great place to get a meal, catch up with friends, or study/work. I stayed for a few hours and had a fun yet productive afternoon. There are vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free options, so it’s a great place if you’re looking for a place to go with dietary restrictions. Highly recommend!
Fair trade store with high quality decorations, jewelry, houseware, and so much more. Lots of bright colors and supporting artists all over the world. The cafe has delicious sandwiches, coffee, and sweets.
Had a great time at this wonderful establishment with excellent food and live music! The salmon salad was truly exceptional and I also loved their 8n-house chai tea w/ traditional black tea or non-caffeinated rooibos tea! Delicious! The store is pretty awesome with a lot of wonderful fair trade unique items as well. Simply a great stop for food and shopping when visiting Olympia for me and the locals seem to love it too given the music night was packed!
Delicious local, organic ingredients in this cafe featuring fresh homemade soups, salads, sandwiches, paninis and quesadillas. Bottled beers and hard ciders available. Some outdoor seating. Nice views of Heritage park, Capitol Lake and the Capitol dome. The east side of the store features carefully selected fair trade arts and clothing from distant locations. Great place to find unique gifts and a fine bowl of soup! Go!!
Great place for unique gifts. Wonderful friendly service. Nice brew, cider, and beer too! If your passing by must stop at this one of a kind store.
The clam chowder was one of the best I've had! This place is very welcoming and really gives a sense of local Olympia love and pride.
