    About Exile

    14411682568_a6d808e014_o
    Exile offers the concept of a true omnivorous, plant-forward menu. The food aims to be healthy, imaginative and tasty – daring you to be wild at heart.

    At Exile, we use organic locally grown produce, foraged edibles, and ethically selected ingredients from beyond with small amounts of game meats and sustainable aquacultured fish. Our choices are and will constantly be affected by climatic, political, and resource sustaining factors.

    Shying away from conventional agri-business models, the small team of foragers, cooks, bartenders and servers at exile invite you to start a passionate dialogue about what comprises food, taking into consideration its origin, history, environment, processing, handling, preserving, and effects on health.

    We encourage our guests to reintegrate into the wild with synergistic phytonutrients that have long been ignored yet live in abundance in our Pacific Northwest rainforests. Instead of mono-crops we strive to offer bio-diversity, one plate at a time. At Exile, we eat the weeds and they taste delicious.

    Cocktails are hand mixed with holistic ingredients such as herbs, functional foods and alternative sweeteners, added for their benefits. Wines are biodynamic, natural, or organic, and our bottled beers are small-batch crafted.

    At 25 seats, Exile emphasizes intimacy and sharing. We invite you to come and feel nourished with us in a cozy yet sophisticated atmosphere.
