Smelled weird, limited pastries and seating

Located inside the Bill and Melinda Gates Center on the UW campus. Pretty standard Starbucks style coffee, with a limited drink and food menu.

I finally got around to trying the newest cafe on campus. Microsoft Café serves healthier options, but with a price tag. I ordered the quinoa bowl that came with sweet potatoes, lentils, pepper, broccoli, and a choice of salad or rice. I chose salad since I thought it was weird to get two starches. I also got tofu for an additional $2. My total ended up being around $10. The quinoa salad had a tangy lemony vinaigrette and a good variety of crunchy and soft textures. The roasted sweet potatoes were also a nice touch. However, the protein was definitely not worth the extra $2; the bowl only came with 3 pieces of tofu. I could buy a whole block of tofu for almost the same price. Also they don't let you do half rice and half salad; you have to choose one option or the other. If you have an HFS dining plan, it might be worth the extra splurge. But without one, I think I'll be sticking to the $6 wraps at the IMA or a much larger bowl at Chipotle. Service was quick when I went at 1pm on a Wednesday afternoon, but I probably avoid this place between 12-12:30pm. Overall: 3.5/5 for food, 4/5 for atmosphere, 4/5 for service
