Tea Republik
This place has a vibe like none other on the Ave. Perfect for the cold weather. With their rich red walls and the velvety red curtains, the place looks straight-up classy. Plenty of tea here.

Thai Tom
The closest thing Seattle has to a Bangkok street stall, with simple and spicy dishes which are as much fun to watch being cooked (just behind the counter) as to eat. If you expect something other than street food service, you might be disappointed. The food is fantastic. No credit cards.
