This is an old fashioned diner type restaurant, the oldest cafe in west seattle. I love their breakfasts, and they are inexpensive for good food. The waitresses are delightful as well. The Chelan isn't really on Alki but it's not in the junction, it's more in the Alki area. It's under the west seattle bridge off Harbor Ave (alki turns into Harbor Ave).

water taxi to and from the Seattle waterfront. This is an excellent way to get to the Seattle waterfront, pike place market, stadiums etc. Plus its just a fun ride! the shuttle to the water taxi (and from it) stops at 63rd and Alki, about 2 or less blocks from the cottage. The shuttle bus is Route/bus #775 and last i checked it was free.
