    Honey Oat Latte - medium (12 oz)
    Ashley C.

    Came here on a recent work trip to Seattle and found the place perfect for meeting a friend or colleague. The location is very central to downtown and there's a good amount of seating and you won't feel too cramped in the space. I ordered the Honey Oat Latte which was very tasty. They have three size options: small (8oz), medium (12 oz), and large (16 oz). Note that the small has one shot of espresso whereas the medium and large have two shots of espresso. If you need less caffeine, the small might be a good option. My drink was super cozy and the flavors paired well and is a great dairy-free option. My friend got a Matcha Latte with Oat milk and she liked it too. The service is friendly and I love that they have other creative drinks on their menu. I would like to try a classic cappuccino with whole milk the next time I'm in town, I feel like they'll do the classic ones right. This was such a lovely find and I highly recommend it.

    I needed a place to get a bit of work done and stumbled across Cafe Umbria. It was a great spot with lots of windows. I did find that there was a weird smell which shortened my time there, but I don't notice any other reviews mentioning this so it was likely a temporary situation. The matcha itself was good and I loved that they threw in the little chocolate on the side. The seating was also relatively comfy with easy access to outlets and solid WiFi.

    Caffe umbria is such a beautiful coffee shop in pioneer square and close to lots of shopping! I can see it being a nice place to chat with a friend or get work done. There's plenty of seating and the space feels really airy and is filled with light. I ordered a medium honey oat latte ($7.17) and thought it was just okay! I didn't taste much of either flavor, but it was still good as just a latte. My friend got a matcha latte and also commented that it was lacking a matcha taste. I will say we came about 20 minutes before closing so there was no wait for our drinks! They close at 4 Saturdays which seems to be later than other cafes in the area.

    Caffe Umbria is a really cute spot with a lively environment. The food was fresh and had tons of flavor. The coffee was also incredible. There was a bit of a wait on the weekend but the food was worth it. Would highly recommend.

    What a fantastic coffee shop in downtown Seattle!! Thank you fellow yelpers for the tips in the reviews. So good. Espresso was absolutely perfect. Americano was excellent. Friendly personable service!!! For the coffee lovers out there try this place!

    I've been a longtime fan of Caffe Umbria. I came by yesterday and enjoyed a Cardamon Maple Latte with Almond Milk-highly recommend! They are conveniently located across from pacific place, and they are a comfortable and relaxed place to spend time.

    Drink: 4/10 (latte) Food: 10/10 (Veggie Croissant) Atmosphere: Comfy Service: Good Let's start with the good on this one. The veggie croissant sandwich was absolutely delicious. This sandwich had a good blend vegetable, egg and cheese which led to demolishing it and craving more. Unfortunately no matter how good the sandwich was, the coffee was my main objective for this trip and ended in a major disappointment. I've always heard great things about the Cafe Umbria roasters and was very excited to try it. The first red flag was how fast the latte was served, and this was then confirmed by the sour taste of the coffee. The steamed milk I think helped mask the quick pull a bit but not enough to warrant a better rating. I'm sure a syrup based drink would have been delicious, and will most likely be what I try on my next visit. The lack of latte art also leads me to believe little effort went into steaming and pouring the milk. This being a cafe, I expected better. Although I only give this visit a 2, I do think the issue was with the pull or calibration of the shot pull and still have high hopes for the Cafe Umbria roasters.

    A small and nice coffee shop with good seasonal drinks and tasty pastries! The drinks and pastries tend to be a bit sweeter than the other cafes in the area. Also, the pastries run out fairly quickly. I've only visited after noon and every time they only have a few cookies left. I really enjoyed the seasonal drinks. The cardamom maple latte had a really strong cardamom flavor which paired well with the slightly bitter coffee and creamy milk. The caffe al pepe had a nice floral note from the pepper and left a slight warmth with all the spices. As for the pastries, I've mostly only tried the shortbreads since that's basically all they have left when I arrive, but they're pretty good. They're crispy and buttery and a really nice snack to eat with a warm cup of coffee. I also like that they're not plain, they're filled with either jam or chocolate hazelnut spread.

    Cute little cafe tucked away in the "Denny Triangle." Not at all what I expected, but in a good way! The only reason for 4-star instead of 5-star rating is because the prices are $$$. Fast and friendly service from an Italian barista added to the full experience of this Italian themed cafe. Also, there were several customers sitting down enjoying coffee while having conversations in Italian. Great ambiance. There were also two customers "working" although for me it seemed a bit loud and distracting to get any work done. I had a large Nutelinna (latte with Nutella) which was delicious!

    I had a weeklong conference at the nearby Convention Center and I made sure to stop by in the morning for an Americano before attending my seminars. My wife declared Caffe Umbria and their coffee beans as her favorite. She has found her go-to coffee beans. One of the notable blend is the Leone. It's a light roast with complement notes of apricot, huckleberry, vanilla and brown sugar. It's got a earthy flavor to it, which I really enjoy. The next blend on our list is the Arco Etrusco -- I'm curious about the smokey and roasty taste. This is extra information. Le Painer, a well-known pastry shop at the Market, serves Umbra coffee along with their pastries. Give it a try.

    Iced Lavender ($5.25), Mocha, and Honey Oat Lattes
    Wendi K.

    Yummiest coffee creations ever! I tried the Lavender Latte ($5.25 for small) and my friends had the Honey Oat Latte and iced Mocha. They had a delicious granita in the frozen drink mixer that was off-menu, we were given a taste. It was like coffee ice cream, yum! What a treat!

    Cortado meh
    Vivian C.

    +++++++ D R I N K S +++++++ [+] CORTADO My husband was not impressed lol. More Italian style if that's what you are looking for! The cortado comes with a piece of chocolate which was tasty! [+] NON CAFFEINATED OPTIONS I was a little disappointed in the limited options of coffee alternatives. Limited non-caffeinated choices makes me sad. They had a lavendar latte and a honey oat latte and a tumeric latte, but none of them seemed that appealing. [+] COFFEE BEANS They mostly had blends, few to no single origin beans. Sad. +++++++ S E R V I C E +++++++ The service was okay, she answered my questions. If you didn't know Bicerin is a drink that consists of two shots of espresso, chocolate, milk, and whipped cream! Two shots is a lot! There was a fly that landed on a pastry and I was not down for that. ++++++ A M B I A N C E +++++ It has several tables mostly for two, some of the tables have cute tiles on the corners. There were also 2-3 outdoor tables, too. It was pretty empty though. One cool thing is that the menu is projected on a huge wooden board. Pretty cool. +++++ O V E R A L L +++++ It was OKAY. Nice to try since I see their beans everywhere, but probably won't come back. I would go across the street to Anchorhead instead lol.

    Super cute little coffee shop. Very mellow vibes. Only has a few seats to mingle/study. I was able to grab a table to do some work while I was here. The staff was very friendly and helpful! It was only him and boy when it got busy he was killing it! He was very calm and collective and was taking and making orders left and right! I was very impressed by him being alone and providing such great service! I ended up getting a matcha latte- it was very creamy. I liked that the matcha wasn't over powering. I also got a blueberry scone. It was pretty good I couldn't stop eating it. Overall cute little coffee shop in the middle of downtown Seattle. If you're lucky enough to get a spot it's a good place to study or just get things done in your own little space.

    I would rate the coffee 10 stars if I could. By far the best coffee I've ever had. Starbucks is 2/5 and Umbria is 10/5.

Loved the vibe, friendly & mellow staff, and the seating area space. There are long tables to work at, comfy seating with games, and chairs to enjoy your coffee with friends.

We came in on a rainy morning and found seats next to the glowing fireplace. Talk about cozy! Massive windows overlook the chaotic market below. They serve coffee, tea, pastries, a few food items, and snacks. My salted caramel latte was pretty incredible. This might sound cheesy but as I drank it, I really couldn't believe how exquisite it was. Very lightly sweetened, unbelievably smooth, the foam holding its shape all the way to the last sip, and that little touch of salt tying everything together. No joke, possibly the best latte I've ever had. Back to the space, it's dark, warm, and sexy, with soft gold and amber accents. It reminded me so much of the way I designed my own home so of course we ended up staying much longer than planned. We felt so at home. So if you're a coffee lover, you need to find this spot and experience it for yourself. One word - transcendent.

This was on a Sunday afternoon close to 5pm, and there were still so many people occupying nearly every seat inside. I did come back to try their matcha matcha drink only to find it gone from their current menu as of May 2026. Instead, their turon matcha immediately caught my eye, as it has banana and I've been obsessed with banana-flavored toppings and puree on my matcha lately. It has matcha and house banana puree, both of which work well together. The tiny layer of house banana puree has all the flavor, especially when you mix the whole drink together. Very refreshing, and their ceremonial matcha's grassy tones still came out despite the banana puree being just as strong in the drink. Their matcha here comes pretty close to making it to the highest spots on my list of my most favorite matcha places in Seattle. Even if it isn't on the top of that list, their drinks are still 5+ star quality.

I noticed that they now pour drinks from a pre-made plastic jug instead of making them fresh like when the store first opened. I usually don't get sick from drinking coffee but twice in a row is pretty bad. Their drinks are also overly sweet and most of them do not have a 0% sweet option, which is usually what I order from other coffee and tea shops, and it's probably because most of the ingredients are pre-mixed. They also use thick plastic cups, considering that Seattle is a pretty green city and a lot of similar Vietnamese coffee shops use sustainable cups. Sad to say, but my time visiting this chain has come to an end.
