Slices Part 1: Major League Pizza

So my son's and mine favorite lunch out is to go and get a slice of pizza.  So my mission in the next few months is to find the best places to get a slice of pizza in the Northwest.  Today's post is about Major League Pizza.  This is a cute/very clean little place on Colby in Downtown Everett.  They start serving pizza around 11am and stop around 2ish.  The pizza we had was tasty and the crust was on the thin side.  They reheat there pizza to order.  I prefer it that way, it does something to the cheese and makes it less stringy! The way I prefer it.  For a slice of cheese and a slice of pepperoni it the total came to $5.46.  Over all I would go back to get pizza and for friendly service.  Please visit the web site for all menu options

Bookend Coffee Company

I feel a little silly,  I have been lamenting about the lack of good coffee houses in Everett and I totally overlooked Bookend Coffee Company!  Bookend Coffee Company is located on Hoyt Ave adjoining the Everett Public Library Downtown.  This place is super cozy, quite and relaxed.  I often see people with with there text book or laptops getting work done.  I also have noticed book clubs meeting here.  There is about 5-6 lg oak tables with cushy seats and a couch and a few mission style upholstered chairs next to a electric fire place.  The style is art deco, like the library.  With wood paneling and law books lining the walls.  This place is classy and cozy all at the same time.

The coffee is always really great and if you ask, you can get a "for here cup".  They serve really well made sandwiches from a local deli for under $6.  There pastries are average but defently will satisfy your sweet tooth.  One of the things I like is they have small bags of pretzels or chips for cheap.  There is also cups of soup, lolly pops, bottled drinks and teas available.  Service is always friendly and quick.  I really love this place and we all should not forget its there.  Parking is in the library garage and there is no time limit.  WiFi is free with purchase.

Thing I love:

• Great kid snacks
• You can enjoy your library books and have a cup of coffee
• Its quiet

Things I would like to see:

• Wish there was pastries from a local bakery

Silver Cup Coffee

So, I love coffee houses! For a long time I thought Everett was seriously lacking a coffee house/roasters. Well I am happy to be proven wrong. Silver Cup is located on Colby in downtown Everett and they roast their coffee in Lynnwood. This place definitely satisfies my need for a local joint to sit and read and enjoy a coffee!

First off their coffee is really good and are experts at making designs in Lattes. They have pastries from Alki Bakery and sell coffee by the pound. I had the chocolate croissant and My son had the cinnamon roll. Both were very tasty. In there cold case they offer craft sodas, sandwiches and salads. The cafe it self is really cozy with large leather chairs and raw wood tables. The service was very friendly and wifi is free!

Pickle Time Deli

Pickle time is a burger joint in Duvall and Everett. They also offer wraps.  My family and I went to the one in Duvall, Wa during our day of Geocaching. The first thing you notice when you come in is all the pickle drawings hung on the wall.  It really fun to see all the cartoons people have dawn.  The very nice lady at the counter encourage us to draw our own while we wait for food.  David and I ordered burgers.  I got the blue cheese burger and David ordered the Texas burger.  My son got chicken nuggets, fries and a giant pickle.  My burger was super tasty and the fried were really great.  I can tell they use frozen fries, but they keep their oil fresh so the fries were not greasy.  My son's chicken nugget were nothing special,  probably Foster Farms frozen nuggets but my son liked them.
This seems to be a local franchise.  The Everett location has its own website and the menu is similar to the Duvall location. Duvall location does not have its own site, but it has a yelp page.
