Market House Meats runs a compact, fast-moving counter in Downtown Seattle specializing in cured meats, with pastrami and Reubens as the core of the lunch lineup. Corned beef is enough of a signature that the shop builds its identity around it. Lunch sandwiches come hot or cold and are served with potato salad and a cookie. Breakfast keeps it simple: English-muffin sandwiches with a fried egg and American cheese, with grilled onions or peppers added at no charge.
