This is a spacious place, great for relaxing and/or plugging in. They have a few cozy chairs by the window, where I made my throne for a couple hours. The plain latte I ordered was 10/10 quality, so I have no doubt every espresso drink here is good. The pastry case looked excellent; I had the vegan raspberry oat scone was just as excellent as it looked -- not super sweet, decently moist and soft inside, and very satisfying. They also had a couple of hot breakfast items on the menu that I was less excited about. Overall, this is a very lovable shop I'd be happy to revisit next time I'm in town.
Amazing coffeeshop in a really nice peaceful neighborhood. Loved the vibes and de or. The coffee was amazing. What I loved is the breakfast burrito I got was small. I hate going to a coffee shop and they either have sweet pastries, or a breakfast burrito the size of my head. I loved this place. Bathrooms were also really clean.
A nice coffee place in the Tangletown neighborhood of Seattle. Service was great but I was there during slow time. The latte was up to Seattle standard, not quite a Vivace, but not far off. I would visit again and may be meet up with friends here, the space is warm and inviting, and not too loud.
It was a nice place but most of the tables were taken by people working on their laptops and few by people there for a coffee/snack. We managed to get 2 seats just as we were about to leave as 2 coffee drinkers stood up to leave. Nobody with a laptop left while we were there so it did not get any easier for people coming in to get a seat
I always find myself coming back to this cafe. The cozy environment is great for working or a chill Sunday morning. I'm not going to say all the chairs are super comfortable and plush but the wood and warm tones make the place feel very welcoming. The place is quite large for a coffee shop, without feeling cold, and there's usually a table seat available. And as the coffee, I've found it consistently decent. All in all, would highly recommend!
Nice local coffee shop. It can get busy at times due to so many people on laptops, but otherwise it's a great place to meet up with friends. They've got a few seats outside too for a nice day
August 5, 2024. Their espresso drinks sizes are 8 ounce, 12 ounce and 16 ounce. Their cappuccino is a traditional 6 ounce size with very dry foam, but they will make it in 8 ounce size if you ask for it. The cappuccino was excellent! The chocolate chip cookie was pretty good too. They also offer a limited menu of breakfast and lunch sandwiches, though note some of them are packaged. They will warm them up in a sandwich press for you. In the summer, they have outdoor seating on the sunny side.
It can be hard to find a coffee shop that doesn’t feel like you have to leave early due to the noise. Even when the shop is full and busy, it stays quiet. Great service in a the greenwood neighborhood.
