Best house made faux meats - Edit
I've been coming to this restaurant for years (back when they were called Highline, located in Capitol Hill). Great vibes and delicious sandwiches, including some of the best house made meats I've ever had. Try the Reuben!

Kinda sorta. Highline and GLC were both in business at the same time. A former co-owner of Highline bought and reopened GLC.

Fantastic vibes, staff, and food! - Edit
They put in a last-minute order for me (very friendly of them!) and I got the chipotle chicken wrap with a potato salad side.
Read moreIt was bomb! Amazing flavor, fun textures, and both the wrap and potato salad 100% delivered on expectations. Loved the music and the atmosphere!

Long live GLC / tipping dark pattern - Edit
In a world crowded with places selling cut-and-paste Beyond/Impossible burgers, these people are doing something unique and doing an amazing job.
Read moreMy general experience here is that the desserts really shine. I have had less-than-fresh salads. Impressive that they make so much in house.
If a girl can dream, I do wish I could get a Highline-style fish taco/sandwich here!
**
Despite no table service and self-bussing, they do start their suggested tip screen at 20%.

Excellent options in an all vegan spot. We tried the French dip and BLT which were stacked with house made faux meat. Will come again.

Lovely vibes and good food - Edit
I miss the convenient location of the owner’s previous venture - The Highline - in Capitol Hill, but this place is great too! A punk-themed bar sort of out in the Seattle boonies, it has a nice pub food menu and a great drink menu. The veganized White Russian with soymilk is soooo good!
Read moreI generally like everything I get here! Most recently I got the chicken bacon wrap and honestly it was the best thing I’ve ordered yet, highly recommended! I really appreciate that all the cheese and meat is made in-house, so it’s not like you’re ordering a Beyond Burger with some Violife cheese which you could have made at home. Prices are…expected for a Seattle vegan joint, but I am happy to eat somewhere with good vibes and thoughtfully-made food.
Pros: Good menu options, Bar theme, N/A and alcoholic options everywhere
Cons: Expensive, like other Seattle vegan spots

Super delicious brunch - Edit
Great coffee to start with. Thx for Combo plate recommendation. Tofu scramble flavor was very good. Biscuit were not dry and dense. So far best vegan biscuit and gravy for me. Egg Benedict assembly is insta worthy. Thier Hot sauce with potatoes kicks the brunch a notch up in flavors. Have to visit back for Rueben and dinner and drinks.

GLC RULES. - Edit
I’m kinda obsessed w/trying new things, but I can’t help but get the french dip w/a side of potato salad every single time bc it’s so damn good. A week or so ago, I saw a review of the BLT on IG + thought okay yeah, I def gotta try that, but then they announced a brunch menu + my partner + I had to hit it + split it Saturday AND Sunday.
Read moreThe eggs benedict is my new favorite thing bc I’m a brunch grrrl. The egg is a little strange, but it totally works in the overall bite. I love love love that the biscuits come w/sausage gravy bc mushrooms give me the shivers. The breakfast potatoes + tofu scramble need an extra shake of salt, nbd, it’s literally all good.
Pros: hella cool vibe, great grub, easy takeout
Cons: kinda spendy, extra $1 for to-go orders
glcseattle
Thanks for the review! The French Dip is where it's at! Someday you'll try something new, but no rush on that! And we hear you, no mushrooms in the gravy! Ever! See ya soon again!

Good drinks and atmosphere - Edit
I remember the 2006-2022 GLC and the 2024 one is pretty different (it’s Highline in a new location, if anyone remembers that place) but great in its own ways.
Read moreCocktails are great, food variety is limited but the entrees are all good especially with booze.
Atmosphere is always good, staff are generally great.
The music is great (99% anarchopunk) but I suppose might not be everyone’s cup of tea. 😜
Pros: Booze, Atmosphere, Sandwiches

The best sandwiches and cocktails! - Edit
I’d say this is one of the best places in Seattle. They have so many great homemade sandwiches with homemade seitan/meats. It stands out from all the burger vegan fast food places. Their drinks are amazing too! Absolutely love all the names :)
Read moreHad the reuben last time I was here and although I usually avoid those toppings, I actually loved it!!

Amazing bar food! - Edit
We had the philly cheese steak and the bleu burger and they were both so good! I'm really impressed that they are made in house. The "meat" of both dishes were a great texture and flavor! And the bleu cheese was a very nice bleu cheese tang! Also had a side salad with their ranch dressing and the dressing (also house made) was excellent. I'm pretty sure that a meat eater wouldn't notice that it wasn't meat. Great atmosphere and all around so tasty!
Read morePros: Awesome house-made meats and cheese!, Meat-eaters would not be able to tell, All around tasty!
