    Lunch special (drinks are their small size)
    Meralina M.

    I would say this is really more of a 3.5 but i rounded up because the staff were nice and I have had much better experiences here when getting drinks, plus the community centered focus of the cafe. A friend and I came in before sorticulture to get some lunch and caffeine. I tried to order the earls garden but they said they didn't have it anymore. My friend tried to order the cream cheese coffee (or something like that), and they seemed a little annoyed saying that they are no longer serving their spring menu. So we mentioned that it was listed on the physical menu they still had out for people to look at, and we apologize for the confusion. They hadn't realized that's what was still up/not crossed out. I got the turkey pesto and salad which was really good! They asked if I wanted garlic butter on my sandwich which was also nice, though the sandwich was a bit salty in general. But I loved the sourdough and the pesto. The matcha was also very good and when I wanted it just a little sweeter (they do not sweeten their matcha) the barista was very happy to accommodate that. When my friend got her grilled cheese the cheese itself was actually not really melted at all, just warm (sorry no pictures, and she still ate it) she said it also did not taste like she got garlic butter as requested. She said the tomato soup was divine as was her coffee, but there was a little confusion because she ordered a bigger size but got the smaller (she got the lunch special), it wasn't communicated by the staff (her first day so absolutely no problem at all, she's learning the ropes!) that it's just the one size and we hadn't been up bathed for a larger size. No problem at all, the coffee was still good. The serve yourself water machine was broken, but the sign was still out saying to get your own water. Luckily a barista who was super busy was right there to tell me it was broken and she'd be happy to get me a couple waters. I think they were just having a rough day this visit because I have had great experiences when just stopping in to get a matcha previously. I also love how community oriented this place is. We will still absolutely be going back!

    I had been wanting to try this place out for awhile. The vibe was chill and relaxed, I loved all the support for local artists. Lots of art for sale as well as cards, coffee cups, and stickers. The employees were very friendly and super helpful with answering questions about the menu. I tried their turkey pesto panini and it was okay, but what really stood out was their strawberry croffle. a croissant heated in a waffle maker, with homemade strawberry cream, along with fresh strawberries and a strawberry sauce on top. That is exactly what I will be coming back for! excited to try a different variety of croffle next.

    Such an amazing little spot! Our Silent Book Club meeting was here and it was so enjoyable! The coffee I got was so yummy! They even had a small performance to highlight their jazz night!

    Live band

    There was a life band there, they are amazing but beware it is very loud (for those with kids/ sensitive ears)- we can hear them very loud and clear even outside the store They had some comfy couches, games, books you can use; also a bunch of stuff for sale Got the ube latte- instead of the usually coconutty or nutty vanilla taste, this one is more of a sweet yam flavor x toasted caramel? I really liked it but my husband was meh.... So depends on your taste!! But not the typical ube flavor

    A Oreo Croffle from Butter Notes Cafe is my sons after grappling treat anytime he's completed a competition. The customer service is always excellent! There are multiple ways to order either ahead of arrival, in person or at location via the kiosk. This cafe is very cozy, offers multiple types of seating options. The board games, soft jazz music, menu selections, and local crafts make this cafe uniquely charming; I highly recommend!

    strawberry nutella crepe and matcha
    Harley B.

    Food is very tasty and matcha was amazing. workers are a little unwelcoming but the fast service is nice. They are a bit light with their flavoring and passive when I ask for a little more but overall the place is really cute and calm!

    Autumn latte
    Adrianne D.

    Good food, sandwiches & croffles are always bomb. Service is fine. The ambiance is great, but sometimes the cafe does get cold. But maybe that's by design because I do be ordering another drink to warm me up.

    Matcha/strawberry croffle.

    Croffles and so good. Fresh house made creams and fruit toppings are delicious. Relaxing music and decore. Wonderful find !

    Savory waffle ham, egg and cheese
    Katlyn S.

    I was at a tournament for my son at Everett Community College and we went here to grab a quick breakfast not expecting much. I was pleasantly surprised turned out to be great! All the food was freshly made and so good! The fruit was fresh the whip cream was perfect and the croffles were delicious and crisp with just the right amount of toppings. We were going to take the food to go but the seating area was so cute and nice we stayed a bit! They have games to play and great ambiance! If I was in the area again I would definitely stop in!

Every attention to detail shows extreme value and a heartfelt pride that only comes with selfless dedication to not only the craft but the heritage that created it. The owners are present, always give thanks to where it is owed and gladly shares the story of hospitality inherited by a grandmother whose picture hangs subtly and proudly. Overtime the coffee has found its identity in what it is good at and slowly but surely savory has joined the menu along side the locally baked sweat treat in the case near the register. This isn't a place for everyone, not because Nadine's doesn't want everyone to come but it's a place for those who want it and hope everyone get's a chance to feel it's love and want more of it in their life's. They are mission set and would love for you to find them.

Every piece of furniture feels intentional, like someone actually cared about the vibe in here (because they clearly did). Menu-wise: loose leaf teas, chai, matcha, juices... and then espresso mocktails?! Their Old Fashioned is espresso, simple syrup, bitters, and an orange peel garnish. Wild. They also do an Espresso Sour, Espresso & Coke, and a Black Velvet. Almost went for one, but I stuck with a seasonal pick instead - The Backpacker (espresso, milk, smoked brown sugar, toasted marshmallow garnish). Tasted exactly like s'mores. No notes. Perfect sipper for wandering the market. Such a cute little find!

They didn't have almond milk, but they have oat, hemp and one other nondairy milk that I forgot. In early afternoon on a Sunday there weren't a lot of baked goods left. I had a cranberry orange scone that was really good. There is some seating with tables. Some stuffed chairs and some hard chairs. There wasn't a lot available on a Sunday afternoon as it was pretty busy. There are books throughout and an area with books. There is a shop area attached to the cafe part. They have lots of unique gifts. And there is a little table for kids to sit and color at. They had crayons and coloring pages. It was super cute! The parking is all street parking. It's near the arena, so if there is an event there parking can be hard to find. I actually tried twice before to visit on a Sunday and couldn't find anywhere to park because there was an event. I think trying to go on a week day might make parking easier.

I had to use the restroom while there and while the handicap restroom is very spacious there were multiple mini flies circling the trash and thus the sink (so washing your hands was gross because of flies circling your head). I also noticed a few flies towards the seating at the middle/back of the store too. The flies kind of gave me the ick, I was wishing for some measures that showed they were trying to take care of their fly problem, but didn't see any. This is a fixable problem. 3 stars for the flies, 4 stars for the overall vibe.

As the frugal pros say, never shop with an empty stomach! I got to try two drinks: the Fatbee milk tea and jasmine green milk tea, both with less ice, brown sugar boba, less ice, and 50% sweet. Fatbee uses condensed/evaporated milk in their milk teas, so it gives a really thick, luxurious mouthfeel when you drink it. It makes you want to savor the drink instead of gulping it down. 50% sweet is perfect since the brown sugar boba is already sweetened and gives the drink the perfect balance. The tea flavor really comes through and isn't lost among the milk and sugar. The boba is very bouncy and chewy. It's amazing. I'll be returning!

Huge plaza area so there's ample parking. Fatbee Milk Tea w/ Boba - boba was decent. Chewy but not particularly flavorful, could be marinated longer. Tea was a classic house black tea with creamer. Tasted more on the dark side. Nothing special but satisfies a typical black milk tea craving. Taro Ube Freeze - a cup of creamy goodness. Blended extremely smooth and flavorful. Both the taro and ube nuttiness were shining and the coldness was soothing. Honestly such a refreshing and addicting drink, I snagged another one for the trip home. Highly recommend.
