Amazing Sandwiches - Edit
Scrumptious sandwiches! We stopped here on a Friday night on our way to pick someone up at SeaTac after asking for suggestions for a vegan place near I-5.
Read moreI always crave a good vegan sandwich, because they are a rare find.
Husband (plant-based at home, meat-eater when out) and I (plant based & ethical vegan) had the cheesesteak and BLT sandwiches and split them with a side of potato salad. Everything was phenomenal. It was impossible for either of us to pick a favorite of the two. The food wasn't greasy, which is a nice change since restaurant food is almost always drenched & dripping with oil. I love that they make their food from scratch & would love to know how they make their marinades for the seitan and tempeh.
My husband raved about the food to several meat-eating friends and told them they would never know it was vegan.
Despite our one cocktail & mocktail being in tiny glasses & not worth the price (husband questioned if his vodka soda had any vodka at all in it), I will want to return here every chance I get for the food.
Cute place & fun vibe and I hope they have many, many years of vegan success ahead of them.
I wish they existed closer to where I live, I'd be a regular for their sandwiches.
Pros: Sandwiches are insanely delicious, Maybe the best sandwiches we've ever had, Fun vibe
Cons: Drinks served in too tiny of glasses, Drinks overpriced for what you get

GLC RULES. - Edit
I’m kinda obsessed w/trying new things, but I can’t help but get the french dip w/a side of potato salad every single time bc it’s so damn good. A week or so ago, I saw a review of the BLT on IG + thought okay yeah, I def gotta try that, but then they announced a brunch menu + my partner + I had to hit it + split it Saturday AND Sunday.
Read moreThe eggs benedict is my new favorite thing bc I’m a brunch grrrl. The egg is a little strange, but it totally works in the overall bite. I love love love that the biscuits come w/sausage gravy bc mushrooms give me the shivers. The breakfast potatoes + tofu scramble need an extra shake of salt, nbd, it’s literally all good.
Pros: hella cool vibe, great grub, easy takeout
Cons: kinda spendy, extra $1 for to-go orders

Thanks for the review! The French Dip is where it's at! Someday you'll try something new, but no rush on that! And we hear you, no mushrooms in the gravy! Ever! See ya soon again!

Good drinks and atmosphere - Edit
I remember the 2006-2022 GLC and the 2024 one is pretty different (it’s Highline in a new location, if anyone remembers that place) but great in its own ways.
Read moreCocktails are great, food variety is limited but the entrees are all good especially with booze.
Atmosphere is always good, staff are generally great.
The music is great (99% anarchopunk) but I suppose might not be everyone’s cup of tea. 😜
Pros: Booze, Atmosphere, Sandwiches

Long live GLC / tipping dark pattern - Edit
In a world crowded with places selling cut-and-paste Beyond/Impossible burgers, these people are doing something unique and doing an amazing job.
Read moreFirst time I've been down this way since they got taken over by the Highline folks a few years ago. I think this might be my favorite vegan sandwich place period, topping Quickie and Homegrown Smoker. I had tepid feelings towards the old GLC, and while it looks like they've mostly kept the menu (insofar as I recall...you used to be able to get a french sandwich and you still can) but upgraded the quality.
If a girl can dream, I do wish I could get a Highline-style fish taco/sandwich here!
**
Updated star review to account for tipping practices Bottom end starts at 20% and you default to 25%. And that's...for a take-out order.

The best sandwiches and cocktails! - Edit
I’d say this is one of the best places in Seattle. They have so many great homemade sandwiches with homemade seitan/meats. It stands out from all the burger vegan fast food places. Their drinks are amazing too! Absolutely love all the names :)
Read moreHad the reuben last time I was here and although I usually avoid those toppings, I actually loved it!!

Amazing bar food! - Edit
We had the philly cheese steak and the bleu burger and they were both so good! I'm really impressed that they are made in house. The "meat" of both dishes were a great texture and flavor! And the bleu cheese was a very nice bleu cheese tang! Also had a side salad with their ranch dressing and the dressing (also house made) was excellent. I'm pretty sure that a meat eater wouldn't notice that it wasn't meat. Great atmosphere and all around so tasty!
Read morePros: Awesome house-made meats and cheese!, Meat-eaters would not be able to tell, All around tasty!

Wonderful house made plant meats - Edit
Not much to complain about here. Their sandwiches are delicious. I loved the old GLC, and I loved Highline, and the new GLC is a beautiful blend of the two. Highly recommend the French dip. (I do miss the Picard though. That was a special sandwich).
