    (9/27/24)

    Fellow Yelp Elite, Dawne from Florida, flew from Tampa to Seattle right before Hurricane Helene. I was happy to meet up with her. The cafe originally selected was strangely closed on a Friday mid morning. Thankfully, plan B was a short walk away to Hagen Coffee Roasters (9/27/24). Last December, we first met at a Cafe Hagen atop Queen Anne, so it seems we are continuing this hygge tradition. Upon entering, one is greeted with a vast pastry case of enticing sweet and savory items. Because of the line, there was ample time to ponder the choices. Decent menu featuring both eats and bevs. Dawne ordered a pumpkin chai latte. I ordered a 16oz mocha and one of their raspberry layered shortbread bars to share. Mocha was well crafted. We enjoyed the well balanced bar too. We were lucky to snag an indoor two top. Both the indoor and outdoor seating were near full. Pleasant interior and welcoming vibe, adding to the site's popularity. I appreciated that we were able to catch up for over two hours onsite. Interesting though versus other onsite roasters like Red Twig, Zoka, Herkimer, Caffe Vita, Cafe Javasti as examples, there was not any overt coffee roasting scent. Counter staff efficiently got the job done, but a tad standoffish.

    A cozy cafe filled with people casually reading books, working on laptops, and more. Has a variety of savory and sweet pastries. I got the København Latte with oat milk, and it was very smooth. It had strong vanilla notes, but the other spices came out and complemented it well. All the wood and neutral colors really bring out hygge. The staff was very cheerful, and it made the experience all the better

    Avocado toast with egg
    Ryen B.

    Love their lattes. Not a fan of the avocado toast. The bread was thick and tasty, but I would have preferred it toasted. The avocado was overwhelmed by a LOT of fresh dill and mint that wasn't fully destemmed. The sunny side up egg was fried over well. Would order this again, but will come back for the coffee.

    Love this little neighborhood cafe. Good coffee. Get the kopenhagen latte if you like cardamom and the seattle fog (their version of a London fog); both are so yummy. Pastries are always solid. The Sunny Seattle and tomato ricotta are our favorites. Busy, but usually can find a table. Also have come here to do work and that worked out well. Free WiFi and clean bathrooms. Not many outlets though.

    The churro cruffin was the winning pastry here. No photo as it was devoured before one was snapped. Gingersnap latte was a big thumbs up. Service was quick and friendly with low key alternative music playing.

    Was skeptical about the strawberry coconut latte but it turned out so good! cute cafe place fast service loved the pear crème brûlée, was worried about the pear in the middle and it was the best part

    Blueberry Danish
    Stefanie C.

    I'm so surprised at the mixed reviews because I had such a solid five-star experience at both Hagen locations in Seattle. My partner and I were in town for work, arriving early on a (rainy) Monday morning. We sat down at separate tables, which were pretty small, to make room for our individual breakfasts and laptops, until more people showed up in the afternoon. Wi-Fi was strong. Coffee was strong. Honestly the best pour over I've ever had, and I wouldn't normally say that about a dark beverage. Had a delicious Blueberry Danish and Brie & Prosciutto Toast. The seedy toast made it feel extra healthy. I mostly wanted to come here because of my positive experience at the other Hagen. Pricey but would totally come here again.

    Americano & Latte

    I really wanted to like this place but they completely forgot my breakfast skillet and I waited patiently for 25 minutes before asking about it and they claimed that I didn't order it. I came here for breakfast and latte. I definitely ordered my breakfast and they just forgot to make it. No apology was issued. They did. It accept any accountability. The definition of poor service. They did absolutely nothing to make it right. On top of everything, the "healthy" skillet is smothered in tons of cheese making it the opposite of healthy. With plenty of other breakfast and coffee places, I highly suggest going elsewhere! The latte and americano were good but there are better places in Seattle to get good espresso.

    Ouch, this place was a bust. I was excited to try local coffee shops on our trip to Seattle but this was not the place. We had high hopes, but couldn't taste any flavorings in our lattes. Pretty neat that they make their own syrups, but definitely didn't taste them. Also, I couldn't help but notice the beautiful latte art in SO many photos on here. Pretty sure it was why we chose this place over another. Our lattes came in a disposable cup with no latte art under the lid :( Wish I had gotten a pastry to maybe change my mood about my experience.

    This place has such awesome vibes with large windows to capture every photon from the typical grey…read morewinter day in Seattle. Exposed brick wall and warm tones from the wood furniture makes this shop a cozy third place. A few indoor plants give it a fresh touch. The baristas here are definitely dedicated to their craft! Their drink offerings are standard, although they also have housemade syrups and specialty drinks (seasonal mochas, lattes, etc) if you want to try something different. I love how they highlight their single origin espresso on the menu with the tasting notes. They also offer matcha and teas if you're more into that. I haven't tried any bakery goods, but looking at the pastry case, they're quite popular. Victrola embodies the perfect Seattle coffeehouse- one that I wish people knew more widely rather than the twin tailed siren that's spread globally...

    I don't normally drink coffee (I'm more of a tea person, if all the boba and tea shop reviews I…read morewrite don't say anything!), but I'm always up for new experiences, especially ones that allow me to expand my taste horizons and ability to describe flavors and aromas. After booking a tea tasting at a local tea shop, I went around looking for coffee tastings and found Victrola. Every Friday at 11AM, they offer a free tasting class, so we, of course, booked the very next Friday! Arriving at the shop a bit before 11AM, it was pretty full, with most tables taken and a short line of 2-3 people in front of me. We checked in with the cashier and he said the barista was getting things ready. Maybe 5 minutes later, we were led to the room in the back, where the barista introduced the tasting experience and handed us two sheets of paper, one with the anatomy of a coffee cherry, and the other with their coffee flavor wheel. For this week, it was only us two for the tasting, so we had a full monopoly of the barista (according to him, the prior week was 8 people!). We were able to try two coffees - both single origin, one from Guatemala and the other from Colombia. We started by sniffing the beans and grounds, with the Guatemalan emanating notes of lightly roasted peanuts (per tasting notes, it's milk chocolate, orange, and "elegant") and the Colombian with dark soy and umami notes (per tasting notes, it's pineapple, melon, and date), at least to my nose. The barista brewed both via pour over (if I remember correctly, it was 203F water with 20g of the Guatemalan, 24g of the Colombian in 360g of water). I forgot the exact grind sizes he used. Interestingly, the flavor profile of the Colombian was completely different to me between the grounds and the final brew. Very fruity throughout - I'm not that adept at description, but it's definitely a fresher, crisp fruit, not dried fruit, and not red fruit or berries, nor citrus. I'll have to file this one away as pineapple and green apple, per the barista. In terms of mouthfeel, it's thick, almost syrupy, coating the mouth with the fruity flavors. The Guatemalan, on the other hand, is completely different, starting with roasted coffee, then still with the peanut notes, but also adding a caramel-like essence. Very 'brown' on the color wheel. Mouthfeel-wise, thinner, watery like tea. I have never had good quality coffee before and this was certainly an experience that opened my eyes to how good coffee can actually be. I still have a ton of tea leaves to go through, but perhaps when I'm nearing the end, I'll have to start drinking more coffee. Tea, then chocolate, and now maybe coffee? My wallet is crying...

    What a secret gem of a place! Just tucked in from a bustling Denny street!…read more We started out with some cappuccino and iced latte, and they were lovely. They served the coffees with a little shortbread cookie, and these little details really elevated the whole experience. Also, the cappuccino was so foamy, and it hit the spot immediately. The breakfast menu was also fantastic. The TPC Breakfast plate included sausage, potatoes, bacon, bread, and some scrambled eggs. There also was an option to add Beecher's cheese on the eggs, and I'd say it was totally worth it. Most importantly, the Dutch baby was as good as they'd advertised. It comes out on a piping hot skillet which kept the dessert warm till the end of the meal. The service was very quick even though they were entirely booked out for the time we were there for. I appreciated the patience from the servers and their helpful directions in picking the menu items. I will warn you that we had to reserve our spot months in advance. This is probably because the restaurant is great but pretty limited in seating space. However, it was definitely worth the wait, so don't be discouraged. I highly recommend trying it out at least once. All in all, highly recommend! Please go try Tilikum Place Cafe!

    We tried all three Dutch babies - classic, sweet, and savory - and they didn't disappoint. The…read moresavory-sweet combo was the highlight, especially if you enjoy contrasting flavors. The baked eggs, however, were just okay - nothing particularly good. The ambiance was cozy and nice, right in downtown Seattle. However, be prepared: the wait can be long, and once you're done, they'll need the table, as there's usually a line. Overall, it's worth a visit - just make a reservation and come for the Dutch babies. I was told there are seasonal Dutch babies so try again sometime in June maybe.
