The mission of Chef Kristi Brown's Communion is to foster community through the cultivation of fresh food and fine cooking. Located in the Central District's Liberty Bank Building--the historic location of the Pacific Northwest's first Black-owned bank--Communion brings forth Seattle Soul, a cuisine that embraces the cultural cross-pollination present in Seattle and the legacies of Black cooking in the U.S.

Menu items include cornmeal crusted catfish "Hood Sushi," black eyed pea hummus made famous by Chef Kristi's catering enterprise, That Brown Girl Cooks!, banh mi-po boy "Po-Mi" sandwiches, and an array of delectable veggies and sides. Opened in late 2020, Communion has already received considerable critical acclaim: it was even named one of Conde Nast Traveler's 12 Best New Restaurants in the World.
