This is my favorite coffee shop in town. The staff is really friendly and the quality of coffee is fantastic. The shop has a local laid back vibe and they play good music. A lot of coffee shops in town have been going with modern design- I like this place because it still has a lot of personality. read more

Would I come back? Yes. This coffee shop was recommended by our Airbnb host. I decided to go for a run and realized that this coffee shop was next to Pratt Park. After finishing my run, the coffee shop was finally open. There were actually a couple of people waiting outside for it to open (seeing that, I thought to myself, this place is probably good). I decided to order the drip coffee and some scones. The coffee was strong and flavorful. Kept me energized all day after the run and I went hiking as well (walked over 17 miles that day). The scones were dense and filled with small pieces of dried fruit. I brought some back for our hosts and they enjoyed them as well. It is small shops like these that are the must-try in Seattle or wherever you travel. read more

Fabulous local chain coffee shop in the CD. I've always been impressed with the friendly service at this particular location. The crew here seems to genuinely enjoy their jobs and likes to offer recommendations if you're up for something new. WiFi available. Snacks and baked goods. A few chairs outside for some good people watching with a cuppa! read more

I've been a long-time customer of Broadcast and really enjoy their coffee and atmosphere, however, I don't feel comfortable at their establishment anymore. I feel they are no longer providing a healthy and clean environment. You see about some nine months ago they started allowing a very erratic and filthy smelling homeless individual to start coming in to their premises. They allow him to camp out pretty much all day with all his stuff as well as occupy the only unisex bathroom they have. This was going on well before the whole COVID-19 pandemic swept the area. I thought with the new tighter restrictions on sanitation and health concerns they would send him away. To my amazement they still host him. I'm concerned as his foul odor and unhygienic appearance poses a serious health problem. I feel King County Health should look into this. Especially with his constant use of the bathroom as his personal grooming station. Food and beverage establishments need to really step up now and Broadcast Coffee doesn't seem interested in this. I'll find my coffee elsewhere thank you. read more

Nice coffee joint. Good latte. Friendly-ish customer service. Indoor and outdoor seating. Spacious. There is a sign in the bathroom with a QR code that teaches you how to use a plunger. I don't know why I love that so much. read more

Broadcast Coffee Roasters - Fritter - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I ordered a Disco Pony, giddy-up and tally-ho. I asked for Hemp and they had it. With a splash of whatever the coffee concoction it was, it's one of the best refreshing cold coffee drink I've ever had. Handcrafted by a precise mixologist. Perfect foam head and the coffee was not biting. I had to drink water in between because, I just wanted to linger and savor the sweetness. Once your lips touch the cool glass it's a goner. I didn't even add sugar and the ice they put in it didn't water my talk glass of goodness. Cool shop and being on the corner lends way of plenty windows to look out and the park. Lots of areas to "plug" in or out. The music is eclectic like an old time recording studio waiting room. They have a few tasty looking pastries in the glass incloses sneeze guard display, bagels and oatmeal. It got busy but the two perplexed behind the counter keep the line moving swiftly. A great way to start my coffee crawl. read more

Broadcast Coffee Roasters - Disco Pony with Hemp and a tall water. Starting the Coffee Crawl. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Perhaps one of the best mocha I've had, instantly my mouth was in awe at the first sip. It's like even better because I wasn't even expecting much, I just needed my morning coffee fix. So this is one of those places you should definitely check out if you're meeting up for a date in the area because if it's a bad date, at least you get good coffee out of it since apparently lunch or dinner isn't offered anymore for first dates in this day and age. Great walking neighborhood, easy parking, plenty of very well behaved dogs in the cafe as they are welcomed in here. Tell me about your experience if you've been here or is going to after reading this review:) read more

Love this little coffee shop! Such a hidden gem only a 3 min walk from my apartment. The coffee and breakfast burritos are delicious, and I will be back to try the scones. The baristas are super friendly and patient. The coffee tastes great, and must be strong as I was very awake after, which doesn't always happen after a latte. For sure stop by if you are able to. Very friendly neighborhood cafe. read more

I'm pretty picky with my coffee and this place does a solid espresso. Great beans and baristas don't burn your drink. Pastries are not bad also, but not the best I've had (but this isn't a bakery). read more

This is my favorite place to buy beans in Seattle. Their single origins are all light roast, so higher caffeine (I believe at least some of the blends might be medium roast, but not 100% on that). Each bag comes with a free cup of drip, which you can upgrade to a larger size for a small fee. I almost exclusively drink drip from here, but I have enjoyed some of their more creative espresso drinks on occasion. As for food, they have Mighty-O donuts (vegan), pastries from Temple Pastries (definitely not vegan), and some breakfast tacos and other sandwiches (vegan and not) in their fridge. Sometimes they have pop up vendors come and set up food in their cafe. One that I've seen a couple times made breakfast tacos in the style of Austin, where they had moved to Seattle from. I don't know the schedule for the pop ups though, so it's always a pleasant surprise and not something I plan around. read more

We drive out here from Snoqualmie for the Figgy Pudding latte maybe three times a week. It's ridiculously good with fig syrup and orange zest, but it's only really good when it's done well, and that's 1/3rd of the time at best. Sometimes you can barely taste the fig, sometimes the orange is missing, and sometimes it doesn't really taste like much of anything, coffee included. There's just too much inconsistency in the way the drink is made, sadly. Worth making the effort for initially, but at $8 for a drink, we're starting to look for other places now. read more

A place for gentrifiers. As a POC, I definitely didn't feel welcome. They forgot my order and then gave me a burnt Sandwich after they realized what I had ordered (it had been sitting in the toaster the entire time) Not a great experience overall but willing to give them another shot. read more

Super friendly people who work here...they recommended the pistachio croissant that basically changed my life. It is from Standard Bakery, but that thing is amazing. Apparently they only get 2-3/day, so you know who's heading there early tomorrow!!! :) I'm not a huge coffee drinker, but i love my lattes and I told them less sweet and it was perfect! My friend was able to create this super inventive latte with hemp milk (which they have) and peppermint! Love having a coffee shop in this neighborhood! read more

Long have I lurked in the shadows of Yelp, using the many helpful reviews to carve a path through local businesses without making an effort to give even a little in a return. After all this time, I've finally decided to give up my review cherry, and Broadcast Coffee seemed like as good a reason as any. Up until recently, this fine establishment was known as Soho Coffee, and if you search for that name above, you'll find many glowing reviews that got cruelly stolen away by the gods of Yelp shortly after their re-branding. But this is still the same fantastic coffee shop that the Central District residents have known and loved for years, just with a new veneer, a tweaked menu, and a pretty slick iPad driven checkout experience. After moving into the area last summer, I made a point of stopping in here first thing to have a drink (lifting coffee cups agrees slightly more with my ill-defined biceps than unpacking heavy boxes) and I have been regularly darkening their doorstep ever since. Coming in on a daily basis offers plenty of opportunity for chance disappointment, but this place treats serving up caffeine like an art-form and the owner, Barry, and his most excellent staff have made each visit a welcome escape from the foul prison otherwise known as my home office. The bean-based drinks, powered by Stumptown, are always predictably great, but I am also a pretty big fan of their tea options, as well as the wide variety of baked goods (some gluten-free) and sandwiches which always seem well-stocked even for customers with slightly vampiric sleeping schedules such as myself. If you're in the neighborhood and looking for a nice place to grab a drink, relax, or even get a little work done, this is as recommended as it gets. Easily one of my favorite things about the CD, just short of being able to tell people that I live where Jimi Hendrix and Bruce Lee did. read more

Broadcast Coffee Roasters - Tastes as good as it looks. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Coffee that isn't scalding your face? They have it here. I think the baristas are friendly. The place is clean. I can't speak to the hipster-ness of it, but it's a nice place to chill out and work or pretend to work or read or even drink coffee. There is a power strip under the center large table, but they are scarcer around the sides. I like the location. I like things. read more

A great soy grande chai! Travelers. The case food sounded tasty. I'm shooting to try the yam & KALE wraps in the future. The center table is a nice, huge, solid, dark earthy wood piece of furniture. Cool spot with great art on display. read more

Broadcast Coffee Roasters - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Seattle, Washington

The best neighborhood coffee shop I could hope for. Wonderful community (both humans and doggos). Reliably random music (Mariah Carey's "All I Want for Christmas Is You" came on last September and everyone started laughing, a few people danced). The espresso is incredible, the staff is friendly and silly and kind, and the cream cheese with your bagel? It's free. I have so much love for this corner coffee shop and all the people and pups who make it what it is. Thank you Broadcast, never change. read more

Ok, I have spent many mornings here now. After they get to know you the staff is really friendly. Great place to go if you need food, great coffee and a place to work remotely. Oh BTW great place to people watch, full of hispters, homeless looking freelancers and bikers. read more

My favorite place to get beans. Also obsessed with the cruffins. Love this neighborhood spot.

Always fast, friendly and a great Americano.

Amazing coffee. Came in at closing time on Father's Day. The service was wonderful and the coffee was even better. Also bought four very unique wines that I haven't seen before. Will definitely come here again. read more

The staff here is friendly, and the coffee is good too. I'm from out if state, but this will definitely be a regular spot for me when I visit. I haven't tried the food yet, bit it's on my to do for next time. I ordered a Latte, and it was delicious. read more

Perfect latte - asked for a splash of vanilla, and they did the perfect amount. Not too sweet, yet not too little flavor. Friendly staff and bright beautiful space as well. read more

Broadcast Coffee Roasters - Avon loved it Broadcast! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I'm so happy Broadcast is here in my neighborhood. Great coffee close is a must! Their espresso is perfectly pulled every time and they have classic espresso drinks and fun specials. I usually get my classic hemp milk latte but today I tried the special upon recommendation from the barista. It was flavorful and inventive! Notes of rose water, Assam tea, and dark chocolate mixed with espresso and hemp milk. The baristas are all friendly. Dogs are also allowed here, which is SO awesome for my little pup. read more

This was the first time I tried this coffee shop and it was great! Just as I expected(since I love the other Broadcast coffee location as well)! Great latte art, strong and rich Stumptown coffee roast. Lots of space in this coffee shop and interesting art on the wall. They even have a microwave! They are located across a park and the view is really nice. read more

Broadcast Coffee Roasters - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I've been here once before and only had regular coffee but I remember it being a pretty good "dirp" (how it's spelled on the menu). Today I opted for a loose leaf tea (Dragonwell green - very tasty. I wish I would've asked where they get their tea!). This shop seems to serve all sorts - parents with kids, college students meeting up to study, people passing through. What I really like about this place is how queer friendly it seems to be. Their bathroom has chalkboard paint on the walls and a bowl of colored chalk set out. There are plenty of pro-queer, pro-earth, pro-self-love, anti-hate-group 'graffiti' messages on the walls. (Is it still graffiti if it's encouraged?) The shop itself has an open layout with a fair amount of seating, including a family style table in the center of the room. I settled in a seat near one of their floor to ceiling windows, because if there's one thing that might take this place down a couple notches for me, it's how dim the lighting is. Other than that, one of my favorite places I've found in Seattle to stop and spend a spare 15-45 minutes. Plus it's right across Yesler Way from a pretty cute park. If I lived in Seattle, Broadcast Coffee is definitely a coffee shop that I'd frequent. read more

From the many Seattle coffee shops I've been too, I would have to say Broadcast has the best coffee. Their lattes are delicious and they roast their beans in house. read more

Decent coffee. Really uncomfortable furniture. There are a lot of outlets available and some overpriced food to help you get through your visit. read more

Drip tasted burnt. I asked for a tiny sample of beans (17g) so I could try in my Aeropress at home and was refused. Stingy mofos

Great coffee! Barista's know what they are doing. We each got an almond milk latte. It was perfect! Would come again.

Decent coffee in a cute little corner shop. My drip was a little bitter but my boyfriend's americano was good. It's a little pricey.

Coffee: 5.0 of 5.0 Service: 4.0 of 5.0 Environment: 4.5 of 5.0 Coffee is phenomenal! Great pour overs and espressos. Awesome that you choose your own bean! Baristas are friendly. Environment is a bit bare and uninspiring but they do have outlets all over the place so a great place to stidy and do work. It may get a little noisy and crowded at times so being headphones. read more

Came in for a quick drink and ordered a caramello with oat milk and it did not disappoint! The staff were super friendly & the place is perfect for some studying. read more

Very friendly baristas! That's about all I can give this place though. Atmosphere was a bit unwelcoming and not too inviting. Uninspiring is probably the right word. Chai tea latte was good and pricey. Good for many, but probably not for all. read more

Omg Broadcast you guys are the best!!! You really know your clever brew and you know your loyal customers even when I'm not with the clever guys ;) Definitely recommend this local gem for great hot and cold brews plus delicious food. Staff is always smiling and friendly. It's a pleasure to go! read more

I am admittedly a coffee snob and so I love finding little neighborhood gems like Broadcast. I ordered my cappuccino with almond milk and enjoyed every sip. They also have a small selection of foods, including vegan wraps. I am lactose intolerant so I appreciate the non-dairy options. read more

Tasty cup of coffee, speedy service every time I've been in, and a nice location adjacent Pratt Park. Never had any trouble finding parking around here, or in the few times I've been since the name change, finding a place to sit if I wanted. I can't quite put my finger on it, but something's better since ownership changed hands. They layout's a little more functional, the coffee a little tastier, and the service a little more attentive. Or maybe it's all in my head. And not that you should care but they use "Square" payment system and an iPad for checkout, which is actually pretty speedy and fun - although I try not to let my love of all things Apple color my review. read more

They've got delicious, inexpensive coffee and espresso beverages. It smells like a fresh pot of roasted coffee every time I walk in. It's also spacious with numerous outlets for guests looking to get stuff done on their laptops. Very convenient coffee spot for me and any nearby residents to grab a drink, study and/or chill! read more

Broadcast Coffee Roasters - The Caramello -- caramel and vanilla latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Seattle, Washington

In light of all the great reviews, I expected heaven. Like so many overly fancy places in Seattle, all I found were gentrifying hipsters and uneven service in which being chatty is mistaken for more substantive service or care. (Of course, one may write a sociological study on the Seattle freeze...) Both the coffee and service were overrated and frankly overpriced, given that they were only marginally better than food available in nearby delis on Yesler. Glad there are other alternatives for food and coffee nearby in the neighborhood- such as those delis. P.S. Barry has tried policing my reviews about his place and others in the neighborhood. He's gone so far as trying to persuade me to take down my reviews for another business- a black-owned business in a historically African American, African, and Asian community. And yet he's the one who called my review of his place "non-community like"? Apparently, he's the arbiter of community in the Central District. read more

Outstanding coffee! Made my first trip to Seattle very memorable and I'll definitely be back. read more
