Crystal M.

Great location with plenty of indoor seating. true café ambiance, as well as great coffee. Just up the stairs from the 'Alley'. Another coffee option for pike place visitors and a must try personal especially for locals. I live Americanos but I've also tried their lattes. All good. They have all the vegan milks too! Almond soy oat... Service is friendly. Maybe not quick but friendly.

Sage latte

My husband loves their coffee and espresso martini. I like the vibe of this place and how close it is to Pike Place. We also tried a sandwhich and it was quite tasty. They still got it!

Seasonal lattes

We came back to try the waffles and it was worth it. This place has great drinks but the food is also very good. The staff were lovely and patient people, and the barista even brought out our waffle to us. We sat outside since their patio is dog friendly. Really good quality cafe that's bustling even on the weekends.

Avocado toast

As a vegan, this place was a miss for me. We came for breakfast because I read reviews from other vegans saying there were a few options. They didn't have the tofu scramble in the Grab & Go. So when we went to order, I asked if they had any vegan options, and they asked me what that meant. I said I wanted something made without animal products, and they recommended the Fonte scramble. So that's what I ordered and asked for no cheese and a side of potatoes. It arrived with scrambled eggs. You may think I should have known that and it was my fault, but I specially asked for an animal-product free option and that's what I was told I could have. We also got the avocado toast, which was tasty enough, and two steamed vanilla almond milks. It wasn't too busy when we went, but we waited quite a long time for our food. This is probably a good option for omnis, but it wasn't great for us.

Directly across from SAM, I can see The Hammer Man from my seat looking out over the street. Nice vibe instead and fast service. Ordered the usual (decaf flat white with heavy cream). "It's a delightful cup of coffee!" hubs says. We're sitting here contemplating what city life would look life if we sold the camper and moved up here to the PNW. We'd be regulars here, for sure.

Waffles

Fonte was a highlight of your last trip to Seattle. The service was amazing, the drinks were perfect and the breakfast food was amazing!! We went almost everyday and made time out last day for one last stop! Can't wait to come visit. Best cup of coffee in Seattle

Espresso martini
Vince U.

This is one of my favorite coffee places in Seattle. And given how many there are, that is saying something. I love the casual vibe of this specific location and how friendly the staff is. After only coming in a handful of times, they remembered me by name. The sign does say they are known for their espresso martini and I have to say, it is one of the best that I've had. Although I have not had their food, they do have a pretty decent selection to choose from.

Sage latte and biscotti
Karen D.

Came here during a visit to Seattle. Opted for the sage latte as their syrup for sage was made in house. I really enjoyed this! I also tried their chocolate dipped biscotti, which was delightful. They have plenty of indoor seating. Service was friendly.

Shaken espresso  Not on the menu but they were willing to make it! And it tasted amazing
Nadia A.

Loved this cafe and the espresso was delicious I wasn't two days in a row. I asked the waiters to make a shaken espresso which isn't on the menu but they used the bar shaker and it tasted delicious. Love the 70s lounge vibe it was nice to work remotely

Vanilla latte
Stephanie R.

My vanilla latte was delicious! Decently priced, quiet and a good place to stop by if walking near pike place. Service was quick and staff were friendly!

fonte fog waffles, breakfast scramble wrap, matcha latte, turkish latte
Keter H.

Well lit cafe with reasonable seating for its size. Friendly workers and for only two of them, they handled service quickly and efficiently. The berry spread on the waffles was wonderful and everything was well prepared. The drinks were lovely too, not too sweet. Bussing is self service but easily laid out. My one comment would be pricing. It was a bit steep but to be expected from this area of Seattle. I almost sampled the espresso martini made with in house cold brew liqueur but the $20 price steered me away.

While in Seattle, we stumbled upon Mr. West, a cute little café. I ordered a grilled cheese and a…read morecup of tomato soup. The grilled cheese was made to perfection the bread was fresh, thick, and delicious, and it was packed with cheese! The tomato soup was also delicious with a unique flavor. My only (very minor) complaint is that it was served in a cup, which made it hard to dip the grilled cheese. A bowl would've been much better for dipping! Overall, this café was a quiet, cozy spot with pleasant employees. I'd definitely visit again.

Because you never turn away a delicious PNW Salmon dish. The place is cute, mainly wooden, lots of plants inside (my allergies were killing me here hehe). Plenty of sitting areas and window views too. I got lucky to seat by a window to just enjoy the rainy view. Their Salmon toast was delicious! I asked for the cream cheese on the side because I cant have lactose but I still wanted to try their dish with all ingredients. So I dipped the slices a few times to try it all and omg its so perfectly paired. I totally recommend it! The coffee was ok. I had their gingersnap latte seasonal drink. I asked with only 1 pump of sweet and alternative milk. I was not impressed. I prefer black coffee haha but if you enjoy sweet drinks you may enjoy this one. I still finished it, so it wasn't terrible just not something I'd order again. Also, Idk why my coffee was served on a to-go cup. Maybe that took some of the joy of it? Overall, I recommend the this spot. Staff was friendly. The menu is vast. Sitting arrangements are great and cozy. Within walking distance from the convention center and a couple of the hotels in the area.

I've associated Jollidaze with their holiday photo ops and honestly, didn't know they were open…read moreoutside of the last few months in the year. Basically, I thought they were a pop up. They sell themselves around being a holiday themed shop which isn't a bad thing, but when it's not the holiday season, the charm feels almost mismatched. All that to say, I love the idea, the space, and the vibes here but have often looked past it because of my perception with the branding. However, I will say their menu is great and the holiday joy is more of a supplement rather than a cover up or gimmick. I would comfortably visit Jollidaze for their drinks and get a working session. Wifi available, washroom (restrooms) available, and outlets available. Ube Phe Latte - rich, creamy, ube foam on top of a strong ca phe! There's also some ube milk, so a three layered drink. Both parts of ube were nutty, sweet, and paired with the ca phe amazingly. Strong Vietnamese coffee with condensed milk always hits but the ube mixture is a cherry on top. Up there with the other ube coffees around. Strawberry Matcha - honestly a simple no frills strawberry matcha. Smoothly whisked matcha, lightly sweetened strawberry puree, and a cup to be mixed in. Maybe more jam than other spots, which can help sweeten the drink and add some texture (chewiness), so might have to say above average.

My family has visited JolliDaze in the past and always enjoyed it--until today. We were greeted by…read morean employee who was unprofessional and rude. As we entered, my daughters were excitedly yelling "Grinch." Throughout my order, the employee maintained a visibly displeased demeanor. Once I had paid, she rudely stated that "they need to keep it down because people are working." If a business does not welcome excited children, perhaps it is better suited as an adult-only space. When a child is not causing harm to themselves or others, there is no reason to ask them to be silent. It is especially important to recognize that children on the spectrum express themselves differently, and they deserve to be able to exist freely without judgment.

They offer plenty of indoor and outdoor seating (note that pets are not allowed indoors). They have a great selection of hot brunch items, plus pastries and cakes. The whole place is modern and bright. The coffee tasting menu is unique, offering latte and espresso flights, and pour-overs. We tried the latte flight, which comes with four adventurous, creative flavors--including a miso latte! Overall, they were a bit on the sweet side for my taste, but very fun to try. The pour-over, however, was phenomenal: deep, rich, and full of berry notes. For food, we had: * Almond Croissant: Perfectly crispy on the outside. I loved that the filling was distributed all the way to the edges, so you get some in every single bite. * Chicken Avocado Salad: A wonderfully light meal featuring grilled chicken breast and a light dressing.

As soon as I walked in, I noticed the selection of pastries, hot brunch items, and coffee drinks. The coffee tasting menu looked enticing. If I had more time to leisurely work or talk with company here, I would have opted to go this more adventurous route. However, I did end up trying one of their seasonal menu items - the Sakura Blossom Cloud Latte. I customized this drink with oat milk, even though the foam has to stay as dairy. The oat milk added a nutty creaminess that I particularly enjoyed. There were notes of the sweet Sakura syrup with a slight saltiness from the cream foam that gives the drink its perfect balance. It was a refreshing drink for a pick-me-up and they only had it for a limited time! My only thing is that I felt some coffee beans at the bottom that may not have been grinded as finely but other than that, the drink was amazing and I would recommend as a good backdrop for a spring walk!
