Nestled in the Fauntleroy neighborhood in West Seattle, a bit east of the Vashon ferry dock and Lincoln Park, bel gatto fires up close to a century-old brick lined oven to provide tasty treats throughout the day. Open at 7am daily, this “handsome cat” provides a broad assortment of bombolini, fresh baked pastries and savory breakfast offerings with an Italian slant.
Given the 88 years of bakery operations in this historic building, we intend to honor that legacy by continuing to offer high quality baked goods utilizing the finest ingredients we can source. With a fully restored storefront and interior space, we hope to provide the neighborhood with a continuation of the bakery works that Bernie Alonzo contributed to Fauntleroy for close to five decades.
Come lunchtime and served initially until 7pm daily, bel gatto will roll out a menu of Italian sandwiches, salads and pizza. An assortment of pizza by the slice or full pies will be offered throughout the day and into the evening. Set up as a counter service operation, all menu items will be available packaged to go or enjoyed in our tiny dining room. In the mood for an afternoon getaway? We also offer a brief selection of beer and wines by the glass or bottle for you to enjoy with an antipasti plate or pizza.
We will open for dinner later in the spring, offering a seasonally inspired menu of Italian classic dishes in a cozy environment most befitting for a night out with friends or family.
bel gatto is located adjacent to our sister restaurant, Endolyne Joe’s, which has proudly served the neighborhood since 2004. bel gatto offers a decidedly different assortment of food & beverages in a setting that is complementary to the full-service dining environment of Joe’s.
Just look for the bright red mixer in front of bel gatto as your guiding light to deliciousness.
