Meeting Place Catering, Washington

Some of the food is good, and the muffins are great. But the service is slow,,and the management is unprofessional and nasty. Went there for lunch with a friend last year near x-mas,,,place was crowded, expected a wait,,,,but after 45 minutes my order had not come ,,and couldnt find the waitress anywhere,,,the other side of the restaurant was getting served much faster. When I went to the manager,,,he was nasty and said they were really busy,,,I said how long does it take to make a cold chicken salad sandwitch? I had a similar problem the year before,,but I thought to give them another try. No more!! If you cant handle the lunch crowd,,,,then your in the wrong business!!

THIS PLACE IS REALLY GOOD. They are always friendly and the apricot tea is wonderful. I order it by the gallon to drink at work. Chicken salad is really good too. Cool atmosphere.

A small menu, but good food. This place used to be only for lunch but recently added dinner and Sunday Brunch. The food is good and the atmosphere is above average (downtown historic building). The service is always slow and not a good place if you've got kids or or in a hurry. This place is the hot spot for older wommen out doing lunch (eating quiche). But, I really like their Bacon/Blue cheeseburger. No beer/wine at lunch not sure (but doubt it) for dinner.

I live an hour away from this restaurant, and sometimes make the trip just to have lunch here. Menu has an impressive variety of sandwiches, salads, and soups. Service is brisk and professional without being formal, folksy or rushed. They bring you poppy seed muffins right off the bat. Food’s tasty, never disappointing. Prices are average. I think one of their signatures is the iced apricot tea, which I love. They serve wine, and what look like desserts made on-site. The dining room is large, and has a wooden floor and a pressed tin ceiling, but because of the high ceiling, the noise level isn’t a problem. Everyone seems to know each other, but I never feel like I’m trespassing, which is sometimes the case with a locally popular restaurant like this. I like that the backs of the booths are high, so you can have a private conversation. Decor is a little on the funky side, but interesting (old pictures of local buildings). It seems clean, but I noticed that the sanitation rating is only 93 point something. I never regret going here, something you can’t always say about a moderately priced, locally owned restaurant.

Love the meeting place! And the owner, Ms. Anne, is just the SWEETEST. Her famous muffins and apricot tea is what I look forward to the most when going back home...my favorite place in all of little washington. And they have a new dinner menu I'm dying to try!

I love the lunch menu, the quiche is always a hit. But we were very dissappointed when we could not get any follow up from the owner on a catering contract. Not very professional.
