Bellden Cafe isn't a place where I'd normally eat a meal at, but we were only a bit peckish and in the middle of playing a board game. After being recommended Bellden Cafe by a foodie friend for a quick meal, we headed over to get some takeout to eat during the game. Mr. Brioche ($11) - This sandwich starts with a rich toasted brioche bun, which is then slathered with some creamy and fatty aioli. A soft and tender, spiced breakfast patty is placed on top, charred just a tad to give some browning and develop flavor. Some eggs, cooked on the flat top in a circular mold which makes it perfectly conform to the size of the bun, is carefully placed on top of the meat, and then finally some swiss cheese cements the sweet vegetal microgreens atop. The bun is voluminous, especially noteworthy in height. The interior ingredients only reaches perhaps 1/3 the height of the bun, making it appear that the sandwich will be dry. But that's an impression soon deemed to be false, as there's more than enough moisture from the aioli and melted cheese to smooth things over. (4/5) I don't normally associate cafes, particularly ones that seem to lean more towards the drink side of things, to also serve good food. But overall, I came out pleasantly surprised at the quality of the food I ate. Bathrooms - Single unisex room.

I love their private study corners!! They have two of them. And other tables as well!

Loved this place!!! I can't wait to come back. I love fresh, delicious, and well prepared meals that are made with love! Like you can just see and taste how important this establishment is to the owner. You can tell they care about their customers and their business! I really appreciate a good meal! I love the design of the cafe, the dishes they serve their food on, the strong flavor of everything we had. What ever it says in the title on the menu is what you actually taste. Thank you for a wonderful experience! My palette appreciates you! You get to experience the aroma of your food with every bite. It's pretty amazing. I want to try more items on the menu. I was reading the complaints about a server but I might know what is being explained. There was a server that may seem like she doesn't care but that's not the case at all I think it might be a language barrier that's all. The service was great!

Lovely cafe! Well crafted specialty coffee drinks with a heart for non profits and social good. The pea and pistachio salad has the most delicious citrus dressing full of summer vibes. The server was warm and friendly. The space is perfect for a chat with a friend. Free 2 hour parking in the building - just let the cashier know your license plate.

Came by for a little Sunday lunch. They validate the garage with a $15 minimum purchase which is reasonable. The space inside is cute. Very open, lots of plants, and chill I ordered the pnw adventure salad and the tropical smoothie. Smoothie is refreshing, not too sweet, and surprisingly, not overpowered by the banana. The salad was pretty good, but the croutons were a little stale. I loved the sauce and addition of capers and blueberries. Service throughout was nice as well. You order at the counter, and they bring the food out. Everything else is self serve. Overall, good vibes!

I love this little cafe! The food is tasty AND beautiful (it is a personal pet peeve of mine when food is cute but bland) Here, you can eat to enjoy with your eyes and taste buds! The cashiers/baristas are always friendly and helpful with suggestions. It seemed to be quite busy when I went both times (weekend afternoon) but was able to find a place to sit.

As good as last time we visisted 7 years ago. Still the best for brunch. Sitting in its office-like room, it may not be very friendly for Instagram posts. Without a professional light, I'd have to adjust white balance on photos in post-process. Probably to try a by-window seat next time.

We were looking a cute cafe place, and we found Bellden cafe. Sadly they sold out the sourdough bread. The person who took our order seems a bit pissed about something but oh well, it's not a big deal. The place was very cute and I love all the decor, especially the bird cage booth. The salad was really good! The dressing paired so perfect and it's not overpowering. We didn't know there's only one waffle but it's very tasty. Kinda bumped it's only one waffle. The coffee was okay. And the banana bread matcha was not good in my opinion. It tasted overly sweet and I asked for less sweet. And it did not taste like the good matcha. Overall I think if you order coffee might be better, and their food overall pretty good.

2 slices of the Mount Olympus toast, extra slice of the PNW TOAST and a Bellden's White Mocha - 12oz hot. Everything pictured- $36, May 2026

I came in around 11am on a Thursday and there were a few seats occupied. The brunette woman helping me at the front was kind and patient while I perused the menu. I settled on the Mt Olympus toast with an extra slice of the PNW since I couldn't make up my mind. I also ordered the Belldens White Mocha, which was not overly sweet surprisingly. As I sat and ate, the place received plenty of customers who also chose to dine-in. Service was great, atmosphere was beautiful. You are expected to bus your own tables, common at small coffee shops. I street parked on the west side of the building, requiring a slight climb up the hill back to my car. It was free though, so no complaints! I would return to "work from home" or if I was in the area and looking for a cute bite. In total I paid $36, not including tip.

Came here for a quick bite and to meet up with friends on a Thursday. We knew the pricing would be up there, as is common for Bellevue coffee shops like this, but we were hoping for a bit higher quality in food/drink. I got the immunity fighter smoothie and it was just a very standard tasting smoothie, it wasn't even fully blended. It just tasted like something I could have made at home, and for $9 I was hoping for something more. Food followed the same fact pattern. The service was friendly here, absolutely no issues with that! The ambiance is what you're really paying for, which is fine I suppose. It's a nice place to get a coffee and hangout with some friends. You can get some work done too because they have a couple privacy rooms where you can take a quick call if needed

Food and coffee was really good! Nice place to hang out with a decent amount of seating.

Market toast
Tyler E.

I used to come here pre-pandemic when my office was located in Bellevue. Now that I work remote I don't go to Bellevue as much and only recently stopped back in here for a treat. I got the pink avo toast and market toast because I wanted both savory and sweet. THEY WERE INCREDIBLE. I also got the iced caramel stand still... best coffee I've ever had. It tastes like coffee flavored haggen dazs ice cream! On top of that, the vibe is so cute in there and the woman at the counter made my whole day. She was SO friendly and welcoming and seemed genuinely interested in giving each costumer a good experience. I mentioned I was treating myself by ordering a coffee drink because I had recently got a ninja cafe espresso machine and was making drinks at home normally. She mentioned they offer a drink free if you buy 2 bags of beans. I have been trying different brands and figured I would give theirs a try (I'm sooooo glad I did because I'm obsessed. It's so tasty!). To top it all off, she knew that ninjas require you to "waste" some beans when you're dialing new ones into your machine so that you can get the grind setting right. Without even asking, she gave me a free cup of beans to use for that!! I can't wait to come back again soon!

What a cute little cafe! I really felt like it was spring in here with blooms galore and a fantastic garden wall. Drinks were fantastic as well serving up creative specialties along with all your favorite classics. From espressos to teas, I got the sense of delicious quality with a touch of love. Speaking of love, yes I got the milk heart art in my latte (the mark of an upscale cafe???). Brenna was an awesome barista. Very efficient and still warm and welcoming with a smile! Spring time latte (5): I love lavender so this community drink really stood out to me. It did not disappoint. 10% of their community proceeds go back to the community too! Smooth, hint of lavender and sweetness from the honey. This likely will be my go-to. Overall, wonderful cafe. Nice inviting seating area. Happy staff and perfectly made drinks. Can't ask for more.

Latte  Wildflower Meadows Latte - 12oz Wildflower Meadows Latte - 12oz Overnight Oats - 12oz

The cafe has great ambiance. The overnight oats and my latte were delicious. The service was amazing. I love that they are community centered. 10/10

Extremely disappointed. I posted the above earlier at 3-stars, but I was too hasty posting before getting our food, expecting that even though the menu changed, the quality wouldn't. Sadly the bagel sandwiches aren't nearly stuffed to what they used to be and even the orange juice had extra pulp. My biggest complaint is still that there were no indicators in the store until we were trying to order. It is so frustrating to try to pivot when we're standing in front of the cashier with drinks in hand just trying to be on our way.

The ingredients may seem simple, but the execution is top notch. The bun is the star. They bake it fresh. Soft and tasty. And the egg is fluffy and filling by itself.

The interior is super cute, with a tonnnn of gorgeous plants throughout the space. There's also quite a bit of seating inside and they offer Wi-Fi if you want to get some work done while having breakfast or coffee. Ordering is done through a self service screen and order pickup is toward the left side of the counter. We were greeted when we came in and they let us know when our order was ready, so service was friendly but pretty minimal. I got the avocado sandwich and added bacon as an extra. Unfortunately, I wish I had just left the bacon off because it was pretty gummy and almost entirely fat rather than the crispy bacon I love. I had to take it out of the sandwich after my first bite. The sandwich itself was good though! It was definitely avocado heavy, but I felt like it could have used a little more sauce because it was on the dry side. Overall, I enjoyed it, even though I probably wouldn't order the bacon again. I also did notice a slight pricing discrepancy between the different ordering websites, with the ordering system the cafe seems to prefer showing slightly higher prices than the others. Just something to keep in mind if you're ordering for pickup! There's also street parking available nearby which is convenient. I'm not sure I'd order the avocado sandwich again, but they have some really fun looking drinks that I'd love to come back and try! The Pistachio Bomb especially caught my eye.
