Love CU Urban Market & Cafe. Consistently great and quality drinks. The first visit here I tried the purple sweet potato latte as it had no coffee and was intriguing. It was delicious and so unique however I'm sad now I was told it was discontinued my latest visit 2 days ago. The Matcha series is great! I am in love with their Banana Matcha which has real banana in the drinks and sooo delicious. Great matcha too! The cafe is a market as well that sells even Macrina Bakery pastries. They sell chips, bagels, tiramisu, and much much more. The service is always friendly and efficient. CU Urban Market & Cafe is in downtown Seattle but I never struggle finding parking nearby! Inside is bright and cute, but not much seating so easy to take to go. Definitely recommend and will return. I highly recommend the Banana Matcha! read more

I remember when I walked in this place for the first time. It was earlier this year in June on a hot day. Me and my partner spent a few hours walking the waterfront and needed a reprieve from the heat. We were passing by and the aesthetic caught our eye. We got a drink from their seasonal offerings. A carbonated grape flavored tea with bits of Japanese grapes. It was what we needed to rejuvenate our spirits. We definitely want to come back and try the other items. Perhaps a mainstay item. read more

Great staff! They are all so friendly and supportive! Came here while I was working. Got helped by two lovely ladies. They were really helpful and have the patience to help us with our drink! I got their Ferrero Rocher Iced Latte! It was the bomb! Really enjoyed and got all the flavors and perfect amount of sweetness! I will definitely be back here next time when I'm off work! :) read more

Traveled over to Seattle from the Bay Area and saw this matcha place on the map- a few stores down from the trendy selfie tv screen. Been craving something sweet and got the Jeju Korean matcha latte. I have pretty high expectations when it comes to matcha and this one didn't disappoint. So yummy! Honestly reminds me of the old Starbucks recipe. For the snacks in-store, everything was priced really well in comparison to other shops in the area. Service was nice too. The lady upfront is super sweet. Missing Seattle already! read more

Pretty sweet spot, serving as a small market with snacks, drinks, pastries, and more filling sandwiches like paninis. Inside is more market-like than cafe-like, but there's some seating. Was carrying some hot takeout so I placed an online order hoping to grab and go but when I went to pick up, they had missed my order. They then began to make the order. Not a big deal, but their online ordering (via Toast) is slightly marked up. Black Sesame Cream Coffee - amazing drink with a great blend of black sesame cream, coffee, and black sesame latte at the bottom. Drink was nutty, toasty, and earthy. One of the more well rounded black sesame drinks around, at a solid price. Purple Sweet Potato Latte - went all in and big here with the 32oz. There's something lacking with this drink, but I can't quite pinpoint it. Tastes like too much purple sweet potato and no latte. While the lattes here are not coffee based, the drink balance is off. I feel this would do wonderful with coffee or more milk, because the sweet potato taste was almost too artificial and chalky. read more

CU Urban Market & Cafe - Purple Sweet Potato Latte and Black Sesame Cream Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Seattle, Washington

The black sesame cream coffee was divine and unique very nutty, slightly gritty, bitter (in a good, authentic sesame way), and balanced out beautifully with the sweet cream on top. That creamy finish softened the roast and made every sip smooth and indulgent. I savor every sip! My girlfriend ordered the Japanese purple sweet potato drink and wow it was sweet, nutty, and it truly tasted like real sweet potato. Not artificial, not overly sugary just rich and comforting. The guys were super nice and patient as we reviewed the menu and ask questions. They are definitely friendlier than others. The ambience is simple and cozy with only about four seats, so it's ideal for grab-and-go rather than lingering. Lots of options for pastry and sandwiches. Small space, big flavors. This is the best way to end a Seattle coffee crawl with a bang. Highly recommended! read more

The menu has so many tempting options. It was hard to land on just one drink but I'm glad I tried the sesame latte, add one shot of espresso, make it large, and substitute Soy. It was great, very rich in flavor. There was quite a wait and it's pretty pricey drink at $10. read more

Located right in downtown with plenty of street parking as well as nearby parking garages. When you enter, it gives that grab and go vibe similar to what you'd want to experience right before work. The decor was modern and they had so many different options of local pastries and desserts amongst other snacks and to go drinks. The staff were friendly and my drink came out very quickly. I got an Iced Jeju Hojicha Latte with Oat Milk and it had a nice roast flavor to it and had a bit of that expected texture from both the Hojicha but also bein paired with the Oat Milk. It comes unsweetened, which is perfect for me, and definitely satisfied the craving for some good Hojicha. read more

I visited Seattle over the weekend and during that short visit, I came here twice because it was sooooo good! I personally love plain yogurt smoothie but this place had the best one I've had in so long! But besides that, other drinks like matcha coffee latte, pineapple & peach yogurt smoothie and chestnut latte were all so yummy. The service providers were so welcoming and kind, making the ordering process smooth. The ambiance of the cafe was not the typically type of cafe but had multiple choices of bread, macaroons, sandwiches, snacks such as chips, chocolate and nuts! The sitting was very limited but very cutesy!! If I visit Seattle again, I will definitely come here again. read more

Nice market addition to downtown. Lots of grab and go sandwiches and salads from other local businesses in Seattle along with bakes by Macadons and Mitten Sweets. Along with bags of snack options. Probably one of the most extensive in house beverage lists I've seen. Lots of different coffee and tea options along with smoothies. like that they offer all fruit as well as yogurt smoothies. I'm an all fruit person was going to try the blue berry pomegranate one the day I went but they were out so I had a mango one was delicious. The staff is always friendly I've been there to grab a sandwich before. Space is clean and easy to maneuver. Small area to sit along the wall but really meant more for grab and go. read more

I ordered coffee, left a good tip, and everything was fine at first. I stepped outside for a moment to put the coffee in my car and came back to use the restroom. I was told the restroom is for customers only. I showed my coffee and explained that I had just purchased it, but was told that since I stepped outside, I had to buy something again to use the restroom. I've never experienced this kind of treatment before. Very disappointing. Not recommended. read more

Ordered a mocha with no ice. The cup came in barely at 50% point or less. I asked why it was so low, and apparently the rest of it is meant to be filled with ice. I asked if it could just be topped up with cold milk. But apparently that's "too many ingredients", and was told I'd have to pay extra. Seriously nickle and diming over like 5oz of milk. Next door Baxter Frost, Storyville, Starbucks and pretty much many places happily give you a full glass coz when you're already paying like $6+ for a drink, they don't go petty over a little bit of milk. Had to get a refund since the lady hard refused changes and needed extra for anything. read more

These pastries.... yummmm!!!!! Clean space, open and full of light. Variety of snacks and fresh pastries to choose from. Personally I am a eat them warm kind of person and that made them even better. This visit was Apple Fritter and the Bananas Nut Muffin with Ginger. The cashier does it all with a smile and grace. read more

Sad to say, giving this place very little stars due to no stock of items. My nephew really wanted a mango smoothie here and after several failed attempts, it saddens me to leave a low review. Attempt 1: After a day of exploring under the Seattle heat on a Saturday evening, we checked the store hours online and noted it said closes at 9pm. Sweet. On our stroll back to the hotel, it was around 6:10ish and the door was propped open so we peaked our heads in only to hear, we're closed. There was a big parade that day so maybe that's why they decided to close early; to avoid traffic/chaos. Ok, understandable I guess Attempt 2: After joining a tour which ended late afternoon Sunday, my nephew and I popped in before dinner to hopefully pick up this sweet beverage to cool ourselves down. We walk in, placed our order, only to hear the barista say " we don't have mangos in stock. We're out of X, Y, and Z". Maybe we came too late and they ran out....? Attempt 3: We noted the store hours are 6am-9pm so our final attempt was Monday morning at 7am--who orders mango smoothies at 7am right? We walk in and the barista said "I remember you guys came in yesterday but we're still out of stock, maybe try later in the afternoon?" We were leaving that morning.... The servers were friendly but my nephew just wanted a mango smoothie so I was more sad for him x 3. Maybe one day they'll have it in stock.... A kid can dream. read more

The yogurt smoothies taste like yakult and their coffee drinks are unique and delicious! I believe their menu is like a korean cafe menu with flavors and combos that are trending in korea. Pastries are reasonably priced and fresh. Hardly any seating but there is a little ledge with tables where you can sit if you're alone. read more

We ordered four drinks, and when my young niece asked for a small cup of water as a refill, the server refused. Considering the amount we purchased, providing a simple cup of water would have been a basic courtesy--especially for a child. It was disappointing, and I believe they should know better when it comes to customer service and hospitality. read more

I discovered this place while in Seattle and I'm so happy I did. We got a matcha, earl gray and biscoff lattes! This is our second time coming during our trip and I'm sad I can't go tomorrow because I'm leaving :( Please open one in Pasadena CA!! Highly recommend! read more

Was walking by yesterday when I needed an afternoon iced coffee. We were just close to it so decided to give it a try. The service is amazing, the cashier was very patient and friendly, answered all my questions. We decided to go with the peanut butter cream iced coffee and oh my god, it was amazing. I would say one of the top iced coffee that I have ever had with actual chunks of peanut butter if you'd like an energizing afternoon coffee with protein. I will go back right now in fact to try something else. Overall the service was amazing and the atmosphere was very relaxing and stress free which is not usual in coffee shops. Loved the tiny cute tables that they had, very chic. read more

While on vacation in Seattle, we visited this cafe 3 days in a row because it was so delicious. The location was convenient for where we were staying.

The service was quick and friendly. The design and cleanliness was also great. read more

Rude Asian guy didn't want to serve us. Said a hr before closing won't make drinks . Really ? An hour ?

Oh my god. Their specialty coffees are so delicious. I live close by and this immediately became my spot to go get "treat yourself" coffees. The original cream coffee is my usual go-to, but the biscoff, Ferrero Rocher, peanut butter, and tiramisu are all excellent. I can't wait to try all their other flavors, and I hope to see some seasonal flavors in the future too! The staff here are so friendly and kind. Really happy they moved into the neighborhood. read more

This place has delicious coffee and some of the best prices in the area. Love supporting a new business too!

Ordered the Lotus Biscoff Cream Coffee and some cookies they had from Gelatiamo. The cream on the coffee was fresh made but I only waited around 5 minutes for it. The person that took my order was super friendly and answered lots of my questions. And the coffee was delicious and not too sweet. Most things in the store are from local bakeries in the area including bagels, Asian bakery items, macarons, and muffins. They also had ready to go lunch items like sandwiches and salads and more common grocery store snacks. Inside is nice and the seating area is pretty small, mostly seems for waiting for your order. Will definitely be coming back to try all of the interesting stuff on their menu! read more
