Bada Bing Cafe in Seattle

The protein pack is delicious. So is the picnic box. Two excellent choices. They also make excellent coffee! Very friendly and VERY fast service. Also really excellent workspace, modern, cool/trendy seating. Overall interiors are well designed. Convenient location next to the vendor workspace. Located directly above Sam’s Tavern, just in case it’s hard to locate while in the building.

Bada Bing isn't an Amazon cafeteria like The Garage Cafe or Warehouse 345, but rather a standalone eatery located in Amazon's Brazil Building on Level 2.  As this sandwich shop is inside an Amazon building, you need to be an employee or have building guest access to visit.

I want this place to be so much better because it is one of my favorite spots on the SLU amazon campus. I now  come here on $5 Friday (all bon appetit cafes at SLU have $5 specials on Friday). Loved the lentil/asparagus side option since mixed greens. It was delightful in texture, and had a tiny sprinkling of parm. The sandwiches I have tried (tried the Tino twice) tend to be on the dry side, perhaps because of the density of the ciabatta, and the proportion of meat, aioli and arugula to the bread. Will try the GF next time to see if it makes any difference. The staff tends to be a bit loud in conversation, so sometimes I take mine to go if I'm seeking a quieter spot to eat and possibly work. On a third visit, I came here with a group of 8 or so for a coffee break on a Monday afternoon, as we approached, the gal at counter looked panicked. Our group only bought case snacks and 2 coffees, so she eased up a bit. I want this cafe to win! It's one of my favorite buildings on campus to hold large meetings for 25 or more, or to simply get away from my desk.
