Mmm…Batdorf and Bronson Coffee, deli sandwiches, toasty paninis and fresh soup. All this and more is now available at Paisley’s Café inside the Westfield Mall in Olympia. The shop opened August 1.

From the owners of Metro, Olympia’s premier body piercing, costume and accessory store, Paisley’s Café brings a breath of fresh air to the world of mall eating.

“It was something that was needed,” says Abbie Rose, owner. “People seem really excited about our options.”

Rose runs the café with her husband Jeff, a handful of family members and a few employees, one of whom scoots around in his wheelchair delivering food and coffee to mall employees.

“It’s a team effort,” says Rose, “it’s working really well.”

If the staff is welcoming, the décor is inviting, with comfortable seating and a fireplace. And with a lean toward local suppliers, Paisley’s food is fresh and delicious.

The Paisley Panini is a big seller. Loaded with chicken, bacon, ham, Swiss and cheddar, it’s grilled to a melty, meaty delight.

There are also yummy vegetarian sandwiches and wraps with custom mayo and cream cheese blends.

“If there’s one thing I’ve learned since opening,” says Rose with a laugh, “Is that people love their paninis!”
