    Great customer service. Nice ambiance, plenty of seating. There is a parking lot available. Coffee was well balanced. Wasn't acidic. Great ratio to Coffee and milk. Tasty chai latte, wasn't overly sweet. They roast their beans in-house.

    I've been coming to Essence for a few years now. This little cafe and roastery is hands down, the best in Sequim. When I was looking for the 'best coffee in town' I found a Yelp review by a coffee aficionado from Seattle. He said that this was the place! And it truly is. My favorite is the Cortado! Their in house roasts are very fresh and exquisitely done. They have great lattes and mochas, and if you're a coffee aficionado like me, you'll love the pour overs. In the back area is a comfy section with a couch and chairs. The main area has tables and a coffee bar for the solo flyer. Food fare is mainly local pastries, scones and muffins. My go to is the chocolate croissant, which accompanies my daily Cortado. Warning, this combo is known to both enlighten and create a vortex of energy which is a great start to your day! There are many regulars, where 'everybody knows your name.' I do appreciate cafes that use only pesticide free beans, and I've inquired and found this to be true at Essence. Enjoy the best in Sequim!!

    Great latte while visiting Sequim. They also offer pastries that go with your hot drink.

    Great quality coffee, with a cool, clean, modern vibe. Very sweet, friendly service from Zach and Izzy. We ordered 5 coffees between the 5 of us, mostly iced lattes, and they were all very good. Loved my iced latte w/ maple (half sweet). They were super popular on a busy Saturday morning, so some waiting involved, but we didn't mind. We hung out for a bit. Worth a stop!

    We had 2 pour overs and a chocolate croissant on a rainy afternoon. This place is serious about coffee and made great pour overs! Fellow merchandise for sale as well. When we arrived there were 1-2 customers and all the sudden the whole store filled up! We were just visiting town but great to see that there were numerous locals saying hello to each other at the local coffee shop. Would definitely come again.

    Not just the best coffee on the Peninsula, you just won't find a grind this good in the PNW. The owner is an award winning roaster, and it shows in every cup

    We enjoyed our meal at Riverhouse Bakery and enjoyed the ambiance…read more The good: Pecan cinnamon roll French toast was super yummy! It was sweet and buttery so I didn't even need to add syrup or butter to my French toast! Vegetable omelette was super yummy and we are super appreciative that the server was able to substitute potatoes and toast for squash due to Jon's dietary needs. The bad: They only serve drip coffee. We live in Sequim! They really need to step up their coffee game and offer lattes and expressos. I ordered OJ. They were out of OJ. Really? The ugly: My over easy eggs were UGLY.... Both eggs were broken and one was overcooked. So relieved they did good and replaced them with yummy over easy eggs. The other ugly (which caused the 4 star review) is how EXPENSIVE this restaurant is. Jon ordered a vegetarian omelette $18 plus $3 salsa plus $3 avocado plus $3 change of potato and toast to squash. Really? His one omelette order cost $27 before tax! $30 after tax!

    Crab cake BLT was the Daily Feature and it exceeded my expectations. Everything was made from…read morescratch and you could tell! Tons of crab and the bread was delicious. I wish I had paused to take a photo! Denise is the owner and she came out and made us feel most welcome and shared some insight as to what made her crab cakes so delicious (the best). The prime rib dip was one of the best we've had. Albacore tuna melt, was a big yes! Sarah our server was genuine and prompt with our needs. Can't wait to return here. Finished up with some carrot cake... dense and delectable!
