    Exterior (7/27/25)

    Dordlofva is well situated and has high visibility in Seattle's Fremont neighborhood (7/27/25). It has limited onsite and outdoor seating at the moment. They offer the usual indie cafe bevs, ice cream, cake and few pastries. I opted for an iced mocha and savory bacon and leek quiche slice. I appreciated the quiche was heated up. One large and loud group pretty much took up the center cafe seating. I snagged a window facing stool by the entrance and gawked at passersby while having my pricey treats. 3.5 stars rounded to 4. Good to check out, but for me, one and done.

    Ice Sunset Matcha Latte (rating: 5/5)

    4.5 stars rounding up to 5 stars. TLDR: delicious ice cream, creative high quality yet pricey matcha latte, but unclear pricing for seasonal drinks, inconvenient setup for ice cream sampling, and not very personable service. We've been to Dordlofva twice so far. The first time we got their ice cream, and the second time we tried their sunset Matcha latte and sorbet. The ice cream/sorbet flavors we tried so far are blackberry & ginger (sorbet), peach cobbler, strawberry cheesecake, and raspberry (sorbet). We liked all of them. The strawberries cheesecake was perfectly creamy when sampled, but can be overwhelmingly rich when you finish the entire scoop. The peach cobbler flavor on the other hand, was not too impressive when sampled, but evolved to taste so well balanced between the sweet and sour, and refreshing at a full scoop. I'd highly recommend complementing the strawberry cheesecake with the peach cobbler flavor. It's a great pair, and their second scoop is very reasonably priced. These two are definitely at the top of my favorite ice cream flavor list. My partner liked both sorbet flavors, but would prefer the raspberry to be more sour. The only caveat with getting ice cream or sorbet at Dordlofva is that they have an extremely inconvenient setup for sampling. They do allow sampling, yet all their flavors are stored in separate round buckets in the freezer. So to sample different flavors, the staff had to take out each bucket, lift the tight lid, and scoop you the sample. It was a painful process to watch and made me feel bad to make sampling requests... I also tried their sunset match latte, in addition to the delicious ice creams. It was creative with a beautiful color palette and great taste combo (bitter match, creamy milk, with refreshing sweetness and sourness from strawberry puree and peach puree). I really enjoyed it, esp. for the fact that it was not too sweet. The only caveat with their seasonal drinks is that they don't clearly list the price. I was a bit surprised to be charged $6+ for this 8-oz drink since their regular match was priced at $5. The cashier was nice to answer questions and provide ice cream samples, but always had a slightly grumpy look that made us feel uneasy to ask more questions or clarify the prices. I would not describe his vibes as friendly...

    Good place to get Matcha, coffee,, and pastry around Fremont. Good service and good prices. I recommend them and will come back.

    Friendly and fast service! They were very helpful in pointing out which of their items were dairy free. They didn't happen to have any dairy free bakery. There's lots of tables in and outside. I enjoyed my London fog and would come back again!

    Fremont has a new coffee shop: DORDLOFVA just had its soft opening! The space is clean, modern, and very inviting, and the service was excellent. I tried a mocha with nonfat milk and a Swedish marzipan knot that they warmed up for me. As someone who enjoys a strong, rich coffee, I felt the mocha could have been a bit more rich in both chocolate and coffee notes, perhaps because I chose nonfat milk. The pastry dough of the mascarpone knot was good, but the marzipan itself was quite subtle, lacking the flavor I'd hoped for - though that might just be my personal preference. Regardless, it's wonderful to have another coffee option in Fremont!

    Server put too much vanilla- vanilla latte had a very odd/bad taste. Threw away my coffee after a few sips.

They were both extremely fluffy and flavorful. The savory one had a nice chipotle sauce in addition to hollandaise. The strawberry one was not too sweet and moist. You order at the counter and pick up your food here. The soufflé pancakes took awhile (30 mins?) to come out, but it was worth it. We came on a weekend as soon as it opened, but there was already a line. I definitely enjoyed the atmosphere and the food - one of the few places to get soufflé pancakes in Seattle!

Soft and ripe and delicious. The cheesecake bites were not as flavorful as I would have liked, along with the vanilla ice cream, but I have a crazy sweet tooth so I recommend this one for those who like milder desserts that are not too sweet. The mixed berry bingsu was my fave! The berries were fresh but the best part was the ice cream! Super flavorful and I loved the fruit syrup too. For both, the bingsu itself is very light in flavor and texture. It melts in your mouth and pairs well with the toppings, especially that sweetened condensed milk. I hope to come back to try other items soon!!

But they definitely maximize the space. It's cozy, a bit run down the chairs are now just covered with a seat cover. And it's only steer parking if ur driving. Ambiance: pretty chill service, we were the only ones there, gossiping late at night. He pretty much left us alone since we entertained us and gave us the check just when we were ready. Food: Im normally a chocolate dessert person, but the chocolate pie was a light chocolate. If you want a rich chocolate pie, this is not your pie. Honestly, the star of the show was deserted island. I don't normally like fruit pies but that's what I'll be ordering again. It's not too sour nor is it too sweet, everyone at the table agreed. It is the goldilocks of sweet and tartness for a fruit pie. Oh and definitely goes well with ice cream!

They told me not to go in and told me their story but I ignored and wanted to give it a shot. I should have listened.
