Lost Lake Cafe and Lounge is a 3,000 square foot diner in Capitol Hill. [2] In 2013, Bradley Foster of Thrillist wrote, "Inside, Lost Lake is stylishly lost in time, its space dominated by an old-school diner-style bar and clad in '60s-era decor ranging from faux wood paneling to chandeliers the Jetsons would love." [3]

The breakfast menu, served all day, includes benedicts, fried chicken and buttermilk biscuits, pancakes, and vegan hash. Lunch and dinner options include meatloaf, sandwiches, tuna melts, and salads. [1] The diner has also served skirt steak fajitas and eggnog French toast. For Thanksgiving, the diner has served cider-brined turkey, honey-glazed ham, and vegetarian lasagna. [4] For Christmas, Lost Lake has served crab bisque, turkey, and mulled wine with brandy. [5]

History

The restaurant opened in 2013. [6] [7] [8] Lost Lake was operated by David Meinert and Jason Lajeunesse via Guild Seattle. [9] [10] Meinert sold his stake in 2018. [11]
