    matcha latte
    Ashley K.

    Genuinely one of the worst matchas I've had and cannot wrap my head around why this was rated one of the top 3 matcha spots in Seattle on Beli (not sure how they accurately rank a cafe known for their coffee vs matcha). I hope this review deters many people away hoping to get a decent matcha here so I can save you the hassle of trying to find parking just to pay $9 for this sad excuse of a drink. We ordered their regular matcha latte and banana matcha latte both with oat milk. Right off the bat just looking at the top I knew it wasn't going to be good. Sometimes color can be deceiving so I still had some hope but the amount of foam that was sitting on the top wasn't helping its case. The matcha was powdery and tasted extremely presweetened, I would liken it to the old starbucks matcha before their recent upgrade. The banana matcha was not any better, it tasted super artificial and like a kid was bored and decided to mix a melted leftover matcha drink and banana milk. No, I did not just go on a bad day, I've been to enough shops to know the difference between purely bad technique and just straight up bad matcha. I heard the owners have changed recently so maybe that has something to do with it but the amount of cafes trying to hop on the matcha trend just to serve half attempted concoctions like this is really not it.

    Caphe Sua

    Love supporting Vietnamese-owned small businesses! Aroom (derived from the Vietnamese words to eat and drink) is solidifying itself in the Seattle Coffee scene. With gorgeous branding and beyond beautiful shop interiors, it's in everyone's bookmarked places to try! We got their Caphe Sua and Galaxy Drink. Their coffee is STRONG. The Caphe Sua featured condensed Milk and traditional phin brewed Vietnamese coffee. A Viet coffee done right, but beware if you're sensitive to caffeine. Unfortunately, the Galaxy Drink wasn't our favorite. It's made of butterfly pea and soda and looked like a sparkly magic potion, but tasted vaguely of pickle juice... Would go with something else next time!

    Giving Aroom a second go in our 2 nights trip in Seattle would tell you how much we loved it. This time it's the Fremont one, which offered totally different ambience. More like quick coffee, grab and go spot, or simply chill over drinks; compared to the Waterfront that's more for work/study space. I opted from the traditional option this time, getting their Viet Latte or Bacsiu, while my husband still sticked to the signature fun drink getting their Sesame Latte. We still WERE SO IMPRESSED, and wished we could have them in LA! Also all baristas in all outlets have been so so friendly!

    This was probably my favorite drink spot in Seattle. The space is beautiful, very large, and had plenty of seating. Everything on the menu looked delicious. The pandan matcha was very good and not overtly sweet. It was a perfectly balanced drink. We honestly drank it in record time. I would highly suggest this to anyone in the area!

    Just might be the best coffee in Seattle! Was in town for the weekend and was in search of a caffeine pick me up when I stumbled across this gem. They specialize in Vietnamese style coffee and they do it perfectly. The hojicha and egg coffee were my favorites

    My husband found this place on Yelp when I told him I wanted a coffee delivery after his Saturday morning workout, not knowing that this spot is apparently having a TikTok moment. If I'm being completely honest, I didn't have high expectations but I was pleasantly surprised that both our drinks were very delicious. He opted for the black sesame drink and an egg coffee for me. My brother in law had the banana one and he also thoroughly enjoyed his. Dare I say the egg coffee was comparable to some that I've tried during my visit to Vietnam. We're only visiting for the weekend, but now we know where to go the next time we visit Seattle.

    The two seasonal drinks I had were great. I was really surprised on how fast these drinks came out, especially with how packed the place was. The drinks I had were the yogurt coffee and the coconut longan matcha. The coconut was great as you can definitely taste the ingredients. The yogurt coffee was surprisingly good.

    Vibe: modern Service: standard Items ordered: - matcha latte: quality was not great; would taste great as a dessert matcha - stick to the rest of the menu

    Aroom Coffee has a very cute, aesthetic vibe, and I can see why it blew up on TikTok and Instagram. That said, the social media buzz has definitely changed the experience. When we went, there was a line out the door, every seat was taken, and the whole place felt very crowded. It's the kind of coffee shop I probably would have enjoyed a lot more if I had randomly stumbled upon it before it became so popular. To be fair, I'm not a coffee connoisseur. I like my coffee on the sweeter side and I'm honestly happy with places like Mercurys or Starbucks, so I may not be the target audience here. The coffee tasted fine, but it wasn't something I'd personally crave or go out of my way for. Overall, I thought Aroom was cute but average, and a bit expensive for what it was.

    After seeing the online hype, I was set on trying Aroom while in Seattle. The morning we departed we walked over, waited in line, and probably an additional 10 minutes for our two drinks to be made. Unfortunately I was given the wrong drink and it was too late to go back and exchange because we had the ferry to catch. I ordered the an iced pandan latte and believe I was given the egg. Coffee was sweet and strong, but not the drink I was looking for.

    It was difficult to find street parking, we had to park a few blocks down in a nearby neighborhood. I got their pandan coffee and it was good but so strong!!! The pandan cream definitely helped sweeten the drink up though.

    Pandan Latte
    Stephanie C.

    The Pandan Latte was 10/10. The barista was knowledgeable and helped me decide between it and the black sesame latter. The pandan only comes iced which is fine. The coconut base and pandan flavor really come through. The latte was strong and sweet. A decent place to bring your laptop to work if you can find a table. Most seats were occupied on a weekday morning.

    This place is honestly such a treat. I got the salty coffee and it was delicious and I would consider it a better dessert than going to an actual dessert shop. I think the saltiness really brought out a lot of flavor and it was so incredibly creamy. But don't get me wrong, I definitely felt some of the caffeine as well! The place has nice ambiance and lighting as well. It makes it pretty easy to just sit down and catch up with friends. I would definitely recommend this place as a unique drink and dessert shop.

    The service was great! The sesame latte was even better! A little too crowded for my taste, but the tasty latte was worth the visit.

    Solid cafe for boba!…read more I've only been here for boba so can't comment on the other items, but there is food, smoothies, and booze at Cafe Happy. Located in the University District, Cafe Happy is situated off the Ave, so it's away from all the noise. This is my new favorite place to do work and edit content because there's plenty of seating (and different kinds too), many nearby outlets to charge your devices, free Wi-Fi, and board games if that's your thing. Temperature inside is nicely regulated. Lighting is sufficient. And there's a neon 'this is my happy place' sign that will brighten your mood. As for the boba, I've gotten their matcha, taro, regular milk tea, and Lil Lychee Iced Tea - all were solid. The chewiness of the tapioca was also consistent each and every time. For my customizations, which is usually medium ice and 50% sweetness, they come through each and every time. Also, I will point out that service is ninja-speed QUICK. You can order either at their kiosk up front, or through DoorDash or Uber Eats, and they are no cap super fast...! Does this place serve the best boba? No, which is why my rating is 4 stars instead of 5. But that's ok. Leave that for the Chicha Sanchens, TP Teas, and Xing Fu Tangs. Everything else about here slaps!

    No toilet paper.... Ever…read more They advertise product they don't serve ie alcohol, half the food menu is consistently out or just advertised for looks. Employees seem to either be in the back or outside smoking.

My lunch today is my favorite vegan pesto pizza in which the crust has the best crunch. The olives and artichokes provide a nice balance to the nutty puréed sauce.

Quality, quality and quality every time at PCC. Service is always exceptional. I apologize for sounding judgy but some Safeway and QFC stores are dirty, they may smell, and the quality of food "for higher prices" is sub par.

I've been coming here for a few years now and then I left the city but whenever I do come back, I make sure to make a pit stop here. Why? Work is right next door to it. So that helps. But also, I feel like the veggies and fruits here are fresh, crisp, and tastier than other places. However... I do feel like prices are a bit higher than last time I was here a couple of months ago. They have parking in the back. It's small and getting in and out alive is a miracle each time. But it exist. If you elect to park on the street, parking enforcement is out everywhere and so be weary. I like their hot bar and salad bar. Always a rotation of items that keeps it busy interesting over time. What I don't think they are good for is snacks. Sometimes I just want something simple and not healthy and this place ain't it. I think this place is better for medium size shops.
