My sister and I were in a matcha mood that day, so we each got a different matcha drink that they curated; Rose Colored Glasses (vanilla matcha with strawberries) and Mak Daddy Matcha (coconut milk matcha with coconut cold foam).

I got a hearty breakfast with 3 eggs, sausage and potatoes. It was filling and perfect for a long day ahead. Soy latte was above average and also helped fuel my day.

We were curious why there were so many folks making a beeline to this entrance, while we were…read moreseated outside eating savory pastries from the adjacent Marvel Market (6/16/25). Wow, talk about a hidden culinary destination! Full scratch made entree dishes, fresh sides, a full pastry case, and beverage menu. All reasonably priced too. Despite being full on khachapuri, chicken sausage rolls, and salami provolone rolls...we could not resist. The Homie had an iced white chocolate strawberry latte. I saw the featured cake slice was honey cake. Oh my the delicate crumb and fresh layers, delicious! I thought this was just a private reception/event area available for rent. Nope, this is a full sit down restaurant with onsite seating and takeout available too. If you happen to be in the Parkland area, stop by the market and then the cafe. Repeat. You're welcome.

There is not a lot of seating, which is not a problem. It kind of gives off a more intimate vibe this way. I'm not a coffee drinker like my wife, but the refreshers make up for it. The dessert options are great, with cheesecakes, and regular cake options. The croffles range from dessert style to savory options. I don't have a favorite yet, as there a more to try. This is a favorite place for me and my wife.

For the most part the coffee tastes good, and I really enjoy their canned nitro cold brew to go. I…read morealso really like that they switched the bakery distributor from Macrina Bakery (nothing wrong with them, just tired of seeing their stuff at every other local coffeeshops) to Tacoma owned Three Hearts Bakery. Recco's: Pour over, Nitro cold brew if they have that on tap, and baked goods by Three Hearts Bakery Cons: Service is a hit or miss at this new location. Being on STW (that is short for South Tacoma Way), I think this location has huge potential for attracting non-locals compared to their 6th Ave location (already established local reputation with regulars), hopefully they staff up to create more flexibility because a lot of times they're backed up on orders especially early mornings due to several crowd rolling in from Howdy Bagel across the street, they're also a bit stoic when it comes to simple greetings. Cortado is one of my favorite coffee drinks but I will not order from this location, today I ordered it with almond milk (which, for cortado of less than 4oz, the portion of milk is not very much but I paid a kidney for it, its my fault) it was $6.07. The barista did provide a tip for next time if I'm looking for a more fuller 8oz drink, I can go for a Flat White. I visit both of their locations fairly regularly and do appreciate this STW location that is closer to me. Parking is on street and has never given any problem finding a spot nearby. Great offerings of seasonal coffee drinks, and I enjoy coming here very early before the crowd hits.

But all of that changed recently as I finally swung by to get a hot coffee drink here. This coffee place is a drive up so there isn't any place to sit unless you plan to hang out in your car.

Nice and soothing for the rainy day I was encountering that day. I also got a banana nut muffin top to snack on which was good. The barista was really nice and super cool to chat with.

Said have a good day, then tried to walk off, my wife asked for our second drink and the receipt. He just tried grabbing a receipt, said for "another name" my wife said no. Then she got her drink, and he didn't yet ask our name just tried to grab another receipt. Wrong again. So, he finally asked our name and we were handed our receipt. We've been to several Gravity Coffee sites; this was the first time we came to this one. We won't return. This was Station OT1 on Pacific Hwy

Since we were passing by and totally new to the town and surrounding, we just google/yelp but we are so glad that we picked this one over others. The owner/barista was incredibly kind and welcoming. We both have specific dietary preferences and usually prefer drinks with very low sugar. She took the time to listen carefully and recommended something that would suit our taste. I honestly couldn't believe how perfectly she balanced the drink--it had just the right flavor with minimal sugar, exactly the way we like it. What really stood out was her hospitality. The shop itself was neat, organized, and very clean, which immediately made the experience feel comfortable. When she handed us our coffees, she made sure to check that everything was according to our taste and preference. That personal touch meant a lot. Their **menu also looked very unique**, with some really interesting drink options that you don't usually see at typical coffee places. If we ever drive through that route again, we will absolutely make it a point to stop at **Coffee Kitchen**. I truly feel the town is lucky to have small businesses and people like this who care so much about their customers. Highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area!
