Best Mocha and coffee in town always delicious and you can stroll Alki gorgeous views while you sip on it. Their food is simple but good in a hurry. Mochas are expensive but worth it for an occasional treat. read more

Alki Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I'm a local and started coming here this summer, regularly (2026). The coffee is good and the vibe is great! I like what they did with it since Starbucks left. The staff is friendly and helpful. I had their version of a BLT today and the bacon was pretty bad---super fatty and thick (not rendered at all) and I couldn't eat it, but the bread (I LOVED the Italian bread) and the rest of it were good! Maybe I'll get a grilled cheese next time. So glad they're here. Just get rid of that bacon....LOL. read more

This is my favorite hidden gem of the Seattle summer. A quiet shaded seat on the boardwalk, right across from the beach, all for the price of a cup of coffee. Perfect. read more

Ordered a matcha and added red raz syrup. They forgot my syrup and even after they added it, it wasn't much. About halfway through the drink all I tasted was almond milk. Bottom of the cup had clumps of unwhisked matcha. Interior is super cute, just wish my drink was good. Tried the vanilla oat milk latte and that was good. Better stick to coffee. Service was great. read more

Alki Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Nice ambience and place to stop by for a cup of coffee. Good customer service. One of my favorite is the avocado toast. Totally recommend. Beautiful view of Alki Beach. Peaceful enough to read a book or do some work with your laptop. read more

Alki Coffee - Avocado toast. Gingerbread chai - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Wonderful service and yummy lavender honey oat milk latte. Loved the seating area with the fireplace and the view of the water. I'll be back! read more

Good location, friendly staff, nice environment. Low rating is because paninis are priced like a meal but barely big enough to qualify as a snack. Total rip off even by Seattle standards. read more

I love Alki Coffee and will be back. However today I had a bad experience. The woman helping me (green sweater, black dinosaurs) was speaking quietly so I asked her to speak up. I think that annoyed her as she asked for my name, and when I got my drink the name had been spelled offensively. I'll be back here and will likely have a good experience. If I've processed this enough I might delete this review, but for the time being I'm pissed. read more

This was my go to for açaí bowls, but not stopping in any longer. The past few visits have been less than ideal. Long wait times not due to how busy but the staff is all over the place, looking at their phones starting one thing and doing something else before finishing one order. All that to then get bowls that are barely half full. Kept hoping they improve but nope. Go elsewhere is my suggestion, sorry to say. read more

Replaced the old Starbucks. I like the new spot. Nice modern interior with open spaces. Read some of the other reviews, and I had no issues with the staff, who were warm and friendly. Probably one of the best views you can get at a coffee shop in all of Seattle. Açaí bowl was really really good. Somewhat expensive, but this is also prime beachfront real estate on top of Seattle's crazy high cost of doing business. I'll be back for sure. read more

Good coffee - Scenic location - Quick service Located in the same complex as Ben & Jerry's, Alki Coffee has a lively atmosphere so if you're seeking a quiet, tucked-away spot, this might not be it. That said, the coffee is brewed rich and ready fast, making it a solid choice for a quick stop. There's plenty of seating, including scenic window spots that give you a nice view while you sip. I grabbed mine to go and took a walk along the beach, highly recommend pairing the two. read more

Was excited for this place to open - Starbucks leaving sucked, as that was only decent coffee option along the beach. Went along on day two in the afternoon - quite a few people on the ice cream side, but nobody on the coffee side. Went to order a crepe and two coffees...the person behind the counter couldn't have been less inviting if she had tried. Didn't say hi, didn't smile, avoided eye contact, stood the whole time looking to the side of her like she wanted to be anywhere but there...on day two!!! Totally soured the entire visit to be honest and now that's the lasting impression of a brand new place. Coffee itself was decent and the crepe was ok, albeit a bit too sweet. Inside is very nice and I love that they used local materials. Won't be rushing back though based on the lackluster service we got. read more

Have been here several times for coffee, acai bowls and breakfast sandwiches. So far all on point. Excited for this coffee shop to thrive . They were also super sweet to my two year old who wanted a tea like his dad. The staff was so smart and made him his own " tea" with pressed orange slice , honey and warm water . read more

I love coming to this place. Everyone is so kind that it feels like I'm among friends. Yesterday I only ordered a drip and asked if I could get a splash of milk and the barista asked if I'd like her to steam it. I thought that was such a sweet gesture, especially knowing how busy they usually are. It really made me feel cared for. I'm so happy they keep that cozy, homey vibe. read more

Service was great. It was their first day open and yet the line moved quickly and the people were nice and the vibes were great. I ordered an oatmilk latte which was delicious and a yogurt parfait which was refreshing and sweet and hit the spot! Will be coming back for lunch! read more

Glad that there's a space back here, and the coffee is good. The food is overpriced/underwhelming though. This ham and cheddar panini was boring, obviously cheap bread and ham and nothing to go with it or jazz it up like mustard or a pickle or something. For $11.99 before tax, it's poor. read more

Alki Coffee - Ham and cheese sandwich for $12 :/ - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Customer service here is so so. Could've been friendlier on the Ben and Jerry's side. My iced decaf Americano was okay I'd come back here to try the food. The atmosphere was cozy and relaxing. I like they have a points system. Overall, I'd still recommend this place if you want a relaxing environment to enjoy coffee/food. read more

Well i ordered an egg and cheese sandwich but i had to pay for the amount of a sandwich with meat and I was trying to tell them, so not good service at all. I then thought, well maybe it will be worth it and taste good but it kinda didn't. Expensive, bad service and not good food. I would not recommend going here again. I guess the vibe was ok. read more

Love this place! Coffee is great, açaí bowls are delicious and you cannot beat the view :)

I had a few minutes before a nearby appointment, so I stopped in for a cup of coffee. Person taking the orders was engaged in what seemed to be a personal conversation with a customer. After standing there being ignored for several minutes, I left and went to a competitor who wanted my money. read more

Coffee was just ok. I honestly miss the dark and moody vibes of the old Starbucks. I am glad they kept the fireplace, though.

This is our new favorite coffee shop! I love the bright new finishes. The service is great - friendly and fast. The prices are also very reasonable. Would recommend! read more

I am visiting from out of state and have had breakfast here 2 days in a row. The food, drinks and service is amazing! Plan on visiting more while I am here! read more

Disappointing. I was excited to try this place. It has so much potential, but is mediocre at best. Probably a reason why it was empty this morning. I ordered the crepe with ham & Gruyère with carmelized onions & an iced americano. The coffee was weak and watery. The crepe was doughy, and the ham looked and tasted like it came out of a plastic package from the refrigerator (not even warmed up), and the onions were super chunky -not carmelized. The crepe wasn't awful, but the quality was something I'd expect at a train station. It's a shame someone would spend money to open a place, in what's probably a very expensive location on the beach, only to serve mediocre food with weak coffee. read more

I ordered a 20oz Iced Latte and Turkey sandwich which was about $20 with tip. I took the cup back next day because I was sure it wasn't 20oz but they confirmed they are selling it as that when it only holds 16oz. They don't seem to care that it's illegal. The turkey sandwich was terrible...3 nothing slices of processed meat...not even deli sliced good turkey and the panini was barely grilled. When I mentioned this also on my second visit the cashier couldn't have cared less. I'm a local that lives close but my daily business is going elsewhere. read more

We went two hours after they opened for their first day of business. The design is beautiful. The coffee is good as are the baked goods. They also make crepes, waffles, breakfast sandwiches and paninis. Great addition to the neighborhood. We will be back! read more

Made me miss my bus trying to get to my job. Employee was serving a customer before me, but when I told him my bus left in a couple minutes, instead of prioritizing the situation, and switching to my order (and finishing the first customer's order later), he continued to work on the first customer's order. My order was only a blueberry muffin, so he could have quickly served me my order, and immediately gone back to the first customer's order with barely any delay at all as a result of serving my order first. But instead, he proceeded with completing the first customer's order, which was an order that took a long time to complete. As a result, I missed my bus. Right now I'm waiting for the next bus, and I just HOPE that I don't get to my job late. This was my first time at this shop, and the first time always leaves the strongest impression. Suffice to say, this left me with a very negative impression. I will not be back to this shop for a long time. read more

Went in on Mother's Day and ordered their turkey "panini" and the sunrise açaí Bowl. The açaí bowl was supposed to have agave but thankfully I noticed the bear bottle they poured over it and had my boyfriend ask. It was honey and I'm allergic, we would've went back but their line was out the door. I could've ended up in the hospital and had little to no idea why since their menu clearly states agave. We switched food but the panini is just a warm sandwich instead of a grilled/pressed, which is fine just don't label it as a panini... There were only two pieces of what look like the 1LB bag of signature select turkey on it. Very thin, obviously not a deli cut or anything of the sort. I pulled out multiple pieces of just stem which sucked too. Best part of the panini was the crust, the regular part of the bread was super chewy and tough. Only reason they get 2 stars was they were decently fast for how busy they were. read more
