Caribbean feel in the middle of a city atmosphere
Located in Green Lake, Bongos Café serves authentic Caribbean cuisine in a casual beach in the middle of a city atmosphere.
“Bongos serves delicious Caribbean food with zero pretensions, and the restaurant, tucked into a triangular plot of land on Aurora, just off Green Lake, is practically a theme-park ride. It's a repurposed 76 station made into a Caribbean playground, with the help of a splash of colorful paint and a thorough reimagining of the space. The best part, obviously, is the sandpit where the gas pumps used to be; even on the dreariest Northwest winter day, the patio furniture and bright plastic shovels and buckets give the restaurant a playful, beachy vibe.” - Paul Constant, The Stranger
