Spring Is In The Air

New Season Brings New Menu Items,

Fun Events & More!

brimmer+tacos.jpg


Spring has arrived in full bloom and we are celebrating with some wonderful new menu items, (like our Hibiscus Tacos, pictured above), plus fun pop-up events here on Market Street! As you may have noticed, the last big storm of winter damaged our beloved Bay Laurel tree beyond repair and we were so heartbroken to say goodbye to the lovely centerpiece of our garden. In addition to perfectly shading areas of our outdoor space, our special tree also offered us delicious flavors from its leaves and branches that our creative kitchen team utilized often.

Though we were saddened by this loss, we are also reminded of the beauty of change and the promise of growth. Springtime has a way of reviving everything it touches, and despite the loss of our Bay Laurel giant, we are looking forward to the newness and growth of this season!

Our Gardens Are Growing!

One of our former chefs, Alex, is helping us reclaim our garden spaces and we are actively working to cultivate the ground and plant beautiful new friends like lots of herbs, edible flowers, beets, sugar snap peas, lettuce, and more. We are so excited to share the fruits of our labor with you on the menu when they’re ready! In the meantime, our feline garden guardian will keep watch over the seedlings.

Pop-Ups Worth
Popping In For

Now that we’re all ready to jump into spring, let’s talk about some of the upcoming events that we’re creating to add a little extra spice to your month. Every single month we are having an incredible cheese & wine pop-up with Alison Leber, along with a rotating bar pop-up. We’re setting up in our beautiful studio space, just through the garden from the penny room, and you’ll feel like you’ve suddenly escaped the city!

Wine Pop-Up



Our cheese & wine events will take place on the last Sunday of each month, (unless otherwise noted), and you’ll get to experience the brilliance of local legend Alison, who owned Brie & Bordeaux, and ran the education program for Sugar Mountain (aka Beecher's).

In addition, you’ll make friends with an exclusive, curated selection of wines, available for you to taste and purchase at regular retail pricing. Mark your calendars so you don’t miss these future cheese & wine shop soirées in our garden studio:

In Other Exciting News…



2018 marked the promotion of Angela Ortez-Davis as our new Executive Chef! The transition marks a milestone for the restaurant with two women at the helm.

Ortez-Davis joined Brimmer & Heeltap in the spring of 2017 to lead the restaurant’s popular brunch menu. She is a second-generation chef, growing up with a chef and cookbook author mother and restaurant-owning father. Her vision for the menu is to showcase local proteins and produce with a nostalgic and comforting flair. 

“Food is like a puzzle,” says Ortez-Davis. “It’s about simple elegance, sustainability, beauty and respect. Basically, it’s all about balance.”

Prior to joining the Brimmer & Heeltap team, Ortez-Davis worked at Circadia and Mamnoon.  She graduated from Seattle University in 2008 and Seattle Culinary Academy in 2016.
