Description

Seattle Metropolitan says, "Proof aplenty that Bellevue is not entirely shiny and polished, Chace's is ancient, tiny, crowded, cramped, and loaded with character. The pancakes and other stock breakfast items are just exactly what you would expect, God love 'em."[3]
In addition to pancakes, the American / New American[3] menu has included scrambles and bacon.[4] The Coach's Pick, named after Mercer Island High School boys basketball head coach Ed Pepple, has crepe-style pancakes an apple glaze.[5] Chace's has served Boyd's Coffee.[6] The restaurant is very popular on weekend mornings.[7]
History
