Belltown has a lot of nice coffee shops to hang out at and this is one of them. It occupies the corner of a residential building. It has a clean, bright, refreshing, contemporary feel to it, which makes it a great place to escape to when Seattle's weather is dreary and also a great place to hang out at when Seattle's weather is nice, as the big windows let all the light stream in. We ordered an Americano and an iced dirty chai. Both were great. The woman behind the counter who served us was friendly and efficient. An added plus: the price of the coffee is very reasonable, especially given the quality. read more

A simple modern coffee shop suitable for working. Limited seats but great environment. Macarons and seasonal specials are worth trying.

I stopped by The Himalayan Coffee around 8 a.m. on a Monday morning. It wasn't very busy, and I really liked the clean, modern, and bright environment. The staff member was very friendly and patiently waited while I decided on my order. I ordered a latte and an almond pinwheel. The latte was the highlight. It was very rich and flavorful. The almond pinwheel was pretty standard; it was good, but not particularly memorable. I noticed they also had a large selection of beautiful macaroons and cakes (I want to try next time!). They also sell their own coffee beans and merchandise. read more

Staff and environment were helpful . Thanks for the help . Coffee was delicious too .

Went for coffee and to use some WiFi to explore my options. It's a very small store attached to some sort of apartment building or something of that nature... there aren't many seats so if it's prime time don't get your hopes up. I wasn't expecting this at all based on the images and reviews. But I made the best of it... the coffee was ok, nothing special. Tasted watered down. I had a macaroon after having a French toast Sammy. Do not get, mine was hard as a rock. It had no flavor and the "maple syrup" was non existent. The staff was super nice and helpful kept the place clean! I wouldn't go back, the atmosphere isn't nice and relaxing. There are plenty of other places to have coffee. read more

This is the coffee shop I come to every morning! Their macarons are incredibly light and fragrant--not overly sweet at all. Earl Grey is my absolute favorite! The atmosphere is very comfortable, and I truly, truly love their macarons the most. read more

First time here, and I was pleasantly surprised by their coffee. I tried the Irish Hazelnut Iced Latte and the Hazelnut White Chocolate; both were delicious, and the espresso definitely gave a nice kick. We also ordered two breakfast burritos: the chicken burrito and the egg burrito. The chicken burrito is the winner; the egg one wasn't quite up to the same quality. Overall, a clean atmosphere and friendly staff. Great study spot as well. read more

Himalayan Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Five stars for Himalayan Java Coffee because: 1. Our barista Sammy, short for Samiksha, was super friendly and excellent. 2. The cafe's beans are organic and come from Nepal, in the Himalayas. They're grown and roasted there. Unique. 3. Revenues go to support Nepali farmers. 4. The Honey Latte with almond milk that I had was fantastic. It cost $5.45 for a small size (12 ounces). Great quality. The cafe's menu has a lot to offer including white coffee. Himalayan Java's white coffee is, according to their menu, "a low-temperature roasted coffee bean that is whitish in color with a higher caffeine and antioxidant content. It has a nutty and sweet taste profile." If we return, I'm going to try it. Most drinks are available in 12, 16, and 20-ounce sizes. The cafe also serves food: breakfast sandwiches ($7.99 each), breakfast burritos ($7.99 each), and paninis ($10.99 each). This location of Himalayan Java originally opened in July 2018 in Lynnwood. It relocated to downtown Seattle in August 2022, opening inside the ground level of the Spire luxury high-rise condominium building. The space is small, but very nice -- consistent with the luxe feel of the Spire property. Seating, inside and out, is limited. During our visit, business hours were 7am-6pm daily. Needless to say, I'm a fan of this place and recommend it. read more

Himalayan Coffee - Cortado - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Seattle AKA Coffee Capital?! You have earned your name! Himalayan is one of my FAVORITE Coffee Shops, and I'm so glad my bf lives a block away. WHITE COFFEE BEAN You read that correctly, but read it again-- not white coffee, but white coffee BEAN that they grind to make espresso. It has a distinctive, divine flavor that tickles your taste buds into the fourth dimension. The first time I tried it, I was immediately hooked. It wasn't sour bitter or dreadful like most terrible over roasted beans (no shade, maybe). I prefer my white coffee bean with sweeter drinks like the Raspberry or Lavender. If you want just OG latte or Americano, that works too. Besides drinks, they sell pastries and foods in reasonably priced combos etc. I've tried the cornettos/croissants pastries and they were fluffy, fresh, and crisp- chef's kiss Himalayan is connected to an apartment high rise with its own space for a few tables/chairs with a high ceiling. Bright and airy, how I like my cafe interiors. Service was always quick and friendly. I think it could be family run? Definitely a local mom-and-pop store, so come thru and support your Seattleites! read more

The white coffee is not good at all, so 0 of 2 for taste. The person working there was on their phone and just wasn't interested in being there. 1 of 2 stars for being nice but absent. It seemed nice inside though so I'll give it 1 of 1 stars for that. read more

Walked in on Christmas morning for a warm coffee to warm up, they did not disappoint. I usually don't drink hot coffee because it's not my favorite but I will say this coffee was very good. I ordered a hazelnut honey latte. Employee was very sweet and kind as-well, thank you! read more

Quick pit stop for caffeine before heading for movie at Pacific Science Center, it's inside the swanky thin Condos, in the lobby to be exact. Maps confuse the heck out of you :p Got Latte and Zebra Latte- both tasted good.. They do have lot other options for coffee, tea and alcohol too. read more

Cute little cafe in the lobby of a building in south lake union. There's a security guard at the door to the main building. Plenty of seating and free WiFi if you want to get work done. Chai latte was delicious with perfect spice level, made fresh and with oat milk for an extra dollar. Pastries are from macrina, a local awesome bakery. read more

Himalayan Coffee - Iced Matcha Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Such a cute little coffee place in downtown! Perfect for meeting up with someone or wanting a quiet place to work/study. Not to mention the friendly barista. Came here to work for a few hours and ordered the zebra mocha with almond milk and it tasted great - the coffee is pretty strong and a bit overpowering in flavor but nothing too bad for true coffee lovers. On the way out I got an iced dirty chai and appreciated the barista asking if I also wanted that with almond milk. The dirty chai is also pretty strong in flavor. Recommend stopping by if in the area or if looking for a quiet place to work/study. read more

This is my go-to coffee shop! Baristas are lovely and ensure you like your drink - I've asked for adjustments a couple of times and they happily added more/made a new drink for me. Prices are a little bit more than average, but the flavor is great. I come here often to work. There are a handful of booths and some table seating, as well as seats along the windows. I wish they had more outlets!! But that's my only qualm. Also a big fan of their food - I like the paninis and macaroons. I've also been that person drinking a glass of wine in the afternoon ;) read more

Friendly service and clean establishment! I love the coffee shops who offer real cups if were to stay and sip. I got mine to go though. They do charge $1 for milk substitutions which is really expensive compared to many others. I've never seen that high of a charge elsewhere. Reason for minus one star. Got the hazelnut white chocolate iced coffee which was pretty good imo. Patroned as I stayed at a hotel nearby and thought I'd try. read more

We needed a quick breakfast and this was a great place. Our coffee orders, honey latte and caramel macchiato, were delicious. We noticed after the fact that they had seasonal options as well which I probably would have gone with one of those instead. The pastry was really good but I didn't really like the breakfast burrito. It was missing flavor or some type of sauce so I wouldn't get that again. Otherwise, the service was great. Everything was brought out to us and they had a lot of cute seating areas as well. read more

Note: Previous review, tips, and photos from Dec 2019 to Dec 2021 were associated with their former location in Lynnwood by Alderwood Mall. It was a serene getaway with spot on mochas and grilled sandwiches. It was very disappointing to see it closed Jan 2022. Fast forward to a few days ago, to see via Yelp that Himalayan Java has returned but in Seattle's Denny Regrade/Belltown area. It is bookended between Amazonia/South Lake Union and a stone's throw from the Space Needle and Seattle Center. I decided to purposefully stop by mid afternoon (8/20/22). It is located at street level associated with one of the newish downtown condo high rises at 6th and Wall, diagonal from City University of Seattle. Brings back memories from the time I worked at a company just two blocks away. My former café proprietor not present, but two other counter staff. Definitely found, as there was quite a lot of café traffic while I was onsite. Bright, airy, modern interior with counter and table seating available. There's the usual café menu items: beverages, pastries, sandwiches. But since it has later hours on some days (up to 9pm), I noticed they have wine bottles arranged on the shelves. My large iced mocha with tax & tip was pricey plus $3.50 for one hour of street parking...this was a bit of an indulgence for me. Looks like my accrued points carried over though from the former northend site. The iced mocha was refreshing, but had to be mixed thoroughly with my straw, yet found it a bit cloying. I'll have to either amp it up or dilute it at home. Better yet throw in some ice cream and make a mocha milkshake instead. Took awhile to even receive my beverage. Poor barista was five tickets behind, in the weeds in restaurant-speak. Thankfully, I paid for an hour of street parking. Plenty of time to wait, barely sipped this iced mocha, and was able to type out this post. Three nearby Belltown/Denny Regrade indie cafés succumbed to either turnover or the pandemic, so good to see this business emerge. It's a decent urban spot, but probably wouldn't return unless if I find myself in the vicinity again. read more

Writing this so others are aware of the price. I really enjoy that they have white coffee at this cafe, but the price is just exorbitant. I ordered an iced 16 oz white coffee zebra latte with oat milk and the drink came out to be over $9 and with tip came out to over $10. They only have 16 or 20 oz for iced drinks and oat milk is an additional $1 I believe. I understand inflation is high and Seattle is expensive, but wow. That is truly the most expensive latte I've purchased. The drink was good, but I can't justify paying over $10 for coffee. Staff was kind and welcoming. Love the open space. Price for what I ordered was just insane in my opinion. read more

Himalayan Coffee - Americano with Almond Milk. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I don't know how this place has 4.4 stars, some of these reviews must have been paid for. First of all, the place looks gentrified and soulless, basically like the typical shop you'd find at an airport or mall. Second, the drinks are well below average, we ordered a Cappuccino and it was burnt, literally burned my partner's tongue. We then waited about 10-15 mins to see if it would cool down and it didn't, the coffee was ruined by probably overheated milk. Third, the vibe can be a bit annoying for work or reading since there's a residential lobby right next to the spot. Customer service was terrible, the employee did not want to exchange our burnt coffee even though it was clearly spoiled, she gave us an attitude and then made us a Chai after being very confrontational and noticing that we were about to leave. Matcha was average too. I'm very convinced that the positive reviews must be fabricated or people that live in the residential building, there's no way we as a community are rewarding this type of mediocre business when there are some many higher quality small local businesses that could use our help. I can already imagine that the people behind this don't care about anything other than the money. Never again. read more

Quiet on a sunday morning for a coffee and pastry! I asked the barista for her favorite drink, and she recommended the Honey Latte. Honey Latte 5/5: So good! Coffee was very fragrant, milk texture was done well, and cinnamon+honey added a great note to the drink. Would definitely order this again! Almond Pastry 4/5: Decent lamination in the dough, warmed up to order! The artificial almond extract flavor in the dough was a little much for me personally. read more

Based on the reviews, I had high hopes. However, it did not meet my expectations. They ran out most of the panini sandwiches that I wanted to order. Ended up getting the bacon and ranch sand which. It wasn't appetizing. The veggies were soggy and it wasn't white meat chicken. Overall food 2/10. Ordered the caramel macchiato, 6/10. Not too bad. Probs the only thing I liked it. read more

This coffee shop is really spacious and nice to hang out. It has a variety of coffee to choose from as well as tea.

The place is also near ny school so it's a good place to just hang out & meet with friends. I ordered a white chocolate mocha (btw) haha. read more

Friendly barista and decent coffee + macarons! A great place to stop by to have a conversation with a friend or to escape the sweltering heat.

I loved this place better after they moved to the spire building in DT Seattle. A few perks is that they sell beers and wine so definitely brought this place into a different dimension. They also sell various color of tumblers and coffee cups with a very tasteful label. Overall I'm a fan! Just need better food :) read more

This was my first time at a sit-down coffee shop since moving to Lynnwood during the pandemic, and this place did not disapoint. I have to admit that between covid paranoia and the traffic noise, I wasn't sure how much I should expect from this spot. I was so impressed. First, the service. The person running the show was super kind and friendly and made me feel so at ease. Thanks! I picked up a blueberry scone, a honey latte (since it seems like the right place to get it!) and a dill score for later. The scone was super tasty and homemade, with really good blueberries. Half the time at cafes, the food tastes stale and forgotten. Not here The coffee was really tasty. I don't know much about Himalayan coffee, or high altitude beans, so this was a new one for me. Really good though, and the honey was a fun treat. They have oat milk, too. The ambiance there, though, was what really won me over. No only is the cafe impressively sound-proofed to the roaring steady traffic outside, but there's soft calming music, fun bright colors and classic cafe feel. You've got soft couches, Nat Geos scattered about, and fun stuff to look at. Also, the view from there is a little nicer than I'd expected with the trees across in the parking lot. Would definitely come back. Thanks! read more
