I love this cafe! Location is amazing right at the top of the Golden Gardens stairs and next to Sunny Hill pizza. Americanos are excellent there and the staff is awesome. My favorite coffee shop in the area! read more

I found out about this place when I was walking a dog in the neighborhood. I tried going in during the walk, but the dog became quite restless indoor so I had to go before ordering. This time, I was walking on my own so I was able to get a cup of coffee. I had the orange Madeleine latte (Madeleine cookie syrup, orange zest, espresso, and sea salt on top) but it tasted artificial and wasn't my cup of tea. The barista sounded indifferent and seemed done for the day as well, which was not great. Looking at the menu pic that I took, I realize now that the price is pretty steep at $7.25 for 8 oz drink. It's already pretty far away from me, so I probably wouldn't visit again. read more

Caffe Fiore Sunset Hill - Menu April 2026 - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Seattle, Washington

See all

I've visited Caffe Fiore Sunset Hill once before pre-Yelp. I enjoy Caffe Vita, of which Caffe Fiore is associated with. Last time I detoured to this specific block was six years ago. For me, 34th is a useful thoroughfare to other Sunset Hill businesses, the Ballard Locks, Shilshoe, or to head down to Golden Gardens, a popular city park with beach access. There are limited street parking spots, since this is also a layover stop for some Metro bus routes. I was able to snag a spot allowing The Homie and I to have some afternoon coffee an hour before the cafe closed for the day (3/19/26). There's wrap around outdoor seating. On sunnier, warmer days, these are the prime spots to soak up rays and people & doggo watch. There's ample indoor seating - tables, bar height tables, and a communal round one. We were able to get a good look around. There's a pastry case, Caffe Vita roasts, merch, and a community corner. Warmly greeted by the barista. The Homie got a 16oz nitro cold brew with room for cream and I opted for a 12oz mocha. Both beverages were well crafted. Nice relaxing vibe and overhead music. Folks were having convos, on laptops, or reading. Recommended! read more

My latte was delicious, and the space was awesome to plug in and work for an hour. The outdoor space is a good for people watching.

Delicious espresso. Interior is cozy and perfect for study/work. However, space is limited so unless you come super early, tables for study/work are hard to come by. That being said, this is truly the perfect spot when you want to dip in and out for delicious espresso to accompany you on a neighborhood walk or when you're on your way to Golden Gardens. Ample outdoor seating (including a row of charming Adirondack chairs) so be sure to bring your sunnies and a book if you'd like to linger on a summer day. read more

BEST CREAMY DELICIOUS LATTES EVER !!! The espresso was done perfectly and the milk was steamed to perfection as well. I was super impressed !! And the pastries are really good too. The interior has a good amount of seating and I loved the decor. Really cool lighting. The barista was so friendly and made the whole experience extra special for us. Definitely our forever go-to spot now! read more

Caffe Fiore Sunset Hill - Yummy Oat Milk Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Met someone for coffee here. Coffee was great, tables were mostly full but barista not overwhelmed so service was timely. Warm and comfortable on a chilly day. read more

Been a longtime fan of this Fiore and am honestly surprised by bad reviews. Their coffee prices are in line with most coffee shops in Seattle these days. They make an excellent vanilla latte where the vanilla is not the main event but the subtle enhancer of the coffee. I hate being slapped in the mouth by pure sugar. Caffe Fiore gets it right on the money. They also make a great matcha latte. Again, lightly sweetened which is how I like it. I've never had a problem with their baristas in terms of bad drinks or poor service. They offer a nice assortment of Macrina pastries. The space itself is cozy and conveniently situated at the top of Golden Gardens. A+ from me for going on a couple decades! read more

After a three mile jog around Golden Gardens park, I took a million stairs up to grab a latte. The service was great, the cafe was clean and my latte was strong enough to get me back on my way. Pricey but that is to be expected. read more

I sent my daughter to get us some coffee after waiting there for 15 minutes. She was told she can I pay with cash and to step from the line because they have a lot of customers waiting. very disappointing it's not professional at all. read more

I live in the neighborhood, it will be hard not to come back every day! The staff was very friendly and helpful, and they seem to have a lot of regulars as they knew most of the other guests by name. My latte was so pretty, both this and my sandwich were amazing! They also have breakfast tacos which I intend to try on my next visit. read more

I came here yesterday with a friend and wanted something refreshing. Decided on an iced London Fog. While the tea was brewing, the barista man noticed my order and found out it was mine (the young lady who took my order started the tea) and said he likes to put in lemon zest and cinnamon in his, would I like to try that? I was like hell yeah, hook it up, and he made me the most incredible drink. It had all the wonderful cool floweryness of an iced London Fog and then MORE. So bright and flowery but also a tiny bit earthy from the cinnamon. He was great and my tea was great and this place is great. I'm only in town on vacation so I won't be back anytime soon, but I'll remember how good this drink was forever. my photo IN NO WAY does this beautifully flavored drink justice. i took this picture while startled by its brilliance and it's not my best work. read more

Dropped in on a whim for a caffeine pick me up. Grabbed a lavender latte and enjoyed it at one of their outside tables. Parking was easy right outside and service was friendly albeit slow. No restrooms or indoor seating when we visited. read more

Really enjoyed by stop here on a Sunday afternoon. Perfect place to get a lavender latte after Golden Gardens Park. This is a different lavender syrup than I'm used to and I really love it! The baristas were nice and the coffee was excellent! Only thing that was weird is that their pastry face was completely empty. Maybe they just don't do pastries? read more

Caffe Fiore Sunset Hill - What time is it? Cortado o'clock! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Upon arriving there was no line and wasn't busy and yet still, it took a while for the barista to take my order and then make it bc they were too busy laughing and talking with their coworker. Super annoying. In addition, the bathroom was pretty gross and no hanger for jacket/ purse. I mention this bc the bathroom being very small there should be something to hang your jacket, so I was trying my best to hold my items while trying to avoid dropping them on the floor. Lastly, the iced tea I ordered was so watered down and had no taste to it. I've gotten my fair share of iced teas around town and this was like water for $5. I gave two starts for the location. Please do better. read more

Good coffee shop near the golden gardens steps. Great place to stop for a treat after doing the stairs like a champ! Kind and quick service. Really nice baristas. read more

Asked if they could make my matcha latte iced and the girl at the counter gave me a blank stare. Ended up just getting a mediocre iced tea for $6. My bf's latte was also burnt. read more

Cute coffee shop, maintaining the mid century vibe. Ridiculously expensive without the customer service. so said 3 times i wanted an almond milk latte which was over $7 and they gave me a hot latte. You cannot charge these prices and be this poor. Will not be back. read more

Just stopped here for a nibble on our way out of town. Vibe is really great. Baristas and servers are super friendly. I like the selection of savory breakfast pastries But... and gang, I BAKE, you know... the blueberry scone for 'dessert' was top notch. I think we should have ordered two! Now that I know what this place is like, I'll be making this a regular stop on my way back up the hill!! read more

The last time I was here was 3 years ago because the service was so unfriendly. I went back recently and I have to assume that their baristas are either underpaid or their management is simply bad at hiring/managing. There are so many coffee shops in this city and it's a shame because this one is really a lovely location. However, these baristas are clearly unhappy and it shows. With the price of coffee continuing to go up, leaving home to get it means you're paying for an experience. Coming here is an unpleasant experience. The coffee is ok. The pastries are the same macrina ones you could get anywhere. And the service makes you wonder why they have no motivation to even pretend to be nice to their customers. read more

Beautiful small cafe, great vibes and aesthetics. Loved their lattes. It was great without sugar and so aromatic. Parking is tricky but there is a 5 mins pickup spot. read more

The worst barista ever! Not welcoming at all like ok i get everyone has their bad day but this dude was completely rude and I can't. I went in didnt feel so welcoming, then we ordered our drink, he was not really happy for some reasons, gave me an instruction of how to order drink rudely, gave me my drink with coffee spilled all over the cap and around the cup, randomly tossed me the cap of my gf hot drink :/ no apologies or nothing. Later there couple other customers came in experienced same thing or worse. I'm so disappointed because this coffee shop was on my list for awhile and today i finally experience it and i dont think i will come back. P/s: dont pay more for oat milk or other milk bc he will just uses regular milk lol read more

Great coffee, pleasant staff, and nice atmosphere. Not a lot of seating but it's quiet and cozy. Coffee was appreciated all around- tried a latte, London fog, and their special "Grinch". Would definitely return. read more

Stopped by and was shocked at my latte price. $8.89 for a 12 ounce oat milk vanilla latte. Ouch. Unfortunately I can't afford to go back, priced out. I was frustrated my expensive drink came in a paper cup- you must have to specify you want your drink in a mug which would have been nice. read more

I have to admit that I was a little apprehensive about going to this coffee shop after reading the reviews featuring "the mean barista," but whoever was working when I stopped in was SO nice. Very friendly and helpful. The quiche was sooo yummy!! The Apple fritter was just meh, but the cold brew coffee was excellent. I will definitely be stopping by more often! read more

The coffee was strong, and had an excellent flavor profile to compliment it. The staff was more than accommodating, even when my fiancee spilled my entire macchiato on the table before I even got to take a sip. The ladies of Fiore quickly cleaned our table and made me a fresh cup without even being asked. The ambiance is very conducive to slowly enjoying a delightful cup of coffee, although the seating could be a bit more fluffy. read more

Caffe Fiore Sunset Hill - Macchiato - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Seattle, Washington

My first time being here and had a bad experience, the young lady with glasses and was very hostile with my friend and I. We ordered two pastries , and she forgot to give it to us, and when we asked for it. She said she had given it to us, and we had ordered one croissant and a chocolate roll, and she just threw the chocolate croissant and a pumpkin loaf . On the counter. We didn't even say anything about the wrong orders at this point, because we didn't feel comfortable asking again if she was already being rude. I would not recommend this place, due to their hostile customer service. read more

It is time to open the restrooms! Plenty of places have opened up restrooms. It feels like they are being lazy and don't want to clean them. We are 2 women in their 70's and were told to go down the stairs and use the one at the dog park. We are not physically able to do that and the Batista was just plain rude about this. We were purchasing coffee and treats. Please think about how you are treating your neighbors, we are the ones keeping you in business read more

One of the rudest baristas I've encountered. Indirectly accused me of lying about whether or not my dog was a service animal. I have a heart condition and my ailment is not visible externally and he made me feel unwelcome and though I was polite, leveled with him and said "thank you" upon delivery of my beverage (and even tipped which I regret now), he rudely turned away without a word and muttered something to his coworker. Such a negative experience on what had been such a positive morning. Will never return to this establishment. read more

Really cute coffee shop by dog park! Staff was very pleasant and warm! Two small lattes with oat milk was about $11.00- so it's not cheap by any means but was really good! I really enjoyed it ! read more

This was one of my favorite cafe until our last visit. The coffee was good and I love the seating and surroundings. The last time we came for to-go drinks, one of them had a big insect at the bottom. I am surprised the barista didn't check the glass before pouring if the insect was in the glass. If the insect was in the ice container, that is a bigger concern about cleanliness. read more

Meh. Coffee was good.. Service was slow. A lot of families come here so expect a long wait as the kids choose their individual pastries and assorted drinks. Barista is distracted easily so trying to grab a quick cup of coffee can take a while. read more

We were regulars here until the yesterday. Twice at 5:30 the barista refused to make a drink in one of the ceramic mugs because he said he didn't want to have to clean them after due to closure at 6 pm. So we didn't buy drinks and likely won't go back unless we hear from the owner. Strange attitude. Like it would be a problem to leave 3 cups in a bin of water and wash in the am if he didn't want to do it at 6pm. 0 stars for his choice and attitude averaged with 4 for coffee = 2 stars. We found another place now we like with great coffee, attitude and ceramic cups when we don't want paper. read more

Such a nice place for work or studying! There are 4-5 small tables so good for working alone. There is also a large round table so good for gathering and chat. The store is small and cozy. On the second day of Thanksgiving there was 4-5 customers so not crowded, but the barista was kept busy and the noise from the coffee machines was perfect for staying focused. read more

A cozy spot that is great for escaping the elements or grabbing some java before heading down the stairs to Golden Gardens. I've always had wonderful service from the baristas here and delicious coffee to boot. The pastries and fresh baked goods are also great. If you time it well, you may get free samples! Kid and dog friendly; with tinker toys tots and treats and water dishes for the pups. Proud to have Caffe Fiore as my neighborhood coffee shop. read more

Caffe Fiore Sunset Hill - Beautiful backlit panels throughout the shop; even the menu! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Seattle, Washington

What a gem! Came here based on a local's recommendation and loved everything about this cozy little shop. They are organic, roast their own beans, offer yummy baked goods (loved the pumpkin bread) and their coffee was delicious. Perfect place to stop for coffee to-go, or to sit down and chill for a few, in a very unpretentious laid back environment. Very close to the beach too; there's a small parking lot out back and it's tucked away in a nearby neighborhood. Thanks Fiore for a wonderful cup of coffee and overall experience. read more

We visited on a Tuesday at 12:30pm. Very slow. Latte and Vanilla Soy Latte, biscotti, and donut. Nice little corner building. The good: 1. Nice girl working the coffee bar. 2. Very old, small building with a cool historical vibe. Used to be a head shop years ago for those of you who live in the area. 3. Soy latte was good, regualr latte was ok. Pastries were fresh. (as far as a biscotti can be fresh...lol) 4. Parking was easy at this time of day. 5. At the top of a cliff near a park, marina, a dog park. Access via very steep stairs to go down to the water. Not so good: 1. Interior though nice, was on the dirty side somewhat. 2. Music was way too loud and obnoxious. Hard to have a conversation. HINT: If parking is tough there is a little dirt lot directly behind the building. Although there is a warning sign about getting your car towed, the property is for parking at the coffee shop....but there is no sign that tells you it's ok as a Caffe Fiore patron. read more

In a city with a million local coffeeshops (and plenty of horrible chain options), Fiore remains one of the best options for great espresso drinks. This Fiore, located right above Golden Gardens, has a warm neighborhood vibe, embedded amongst houses and condos, and next door to Cucina Esperanza. The baristas are friendly and attentive, and the drinks are flavorful and are great exhibits of the latte art that artisan coffee in Seattle is known for (pioneered by Vivace on Capitol Hill). It's a small space, so they don't have wifi to prevent people from camping there all day. There's some outdoor seating in adirondack chairs on the sidewalk, and a small patio in front. My dogs appreciate the free dog treats from the glass bowl on the back counter. Food options are mostly pastries, including the (thankfully) ubiquitous Mighty-O donuts. The toast is reportedly good, though I've never tried it myself. To address a few recent reviews that got me to bother writing a review: living a few blocks away, I've been there dozens and dozens of times, and have never once had an issue with cleanliness or burnt beans. That someone would recommend a Starbucks over this is, frankly, inconceivable. read more
