A stylish french bistro in the middle of old Ballard just a few steps away from the marina on Salmon Bay, the Bastille Cafe and Bar has some of the freshest dishes around. On any given day, the chef will have a new menu item made with what is currently growing on the roof.
The roof garden is open to visitors on certain days with the purchase of a tour that comes with a cocktail. It is also available for a curated dinner for private party reservations. When I visted, there were peppers, cherry tomatoes, carrots, herbs, lettuce and cucumbers growing, to name a few, and said cucumbers were used in the refreshing cocktail that came with the tour.
