This place has such a cozy, welcoming vibe with plenty of seating to sit back and actually enjoy your drink (bonus points for offering real "for here" cups!). Their selection is impressive--everything from classic coffee drinks to a variety of pastries, plus even beer and other beverages if you're stopping by later in the day. I had a savory biscuit with cheese and herbs that was great and the perfect pairing with my cortado. There were tons of other tempting options too, from pastries to bagels and more. Overall, just a really nice spot with great offerings and a relaxed atmosphere. Such a great find--I'll definitely be back!

My go-to is a 16oz iced oat milk with mocha and I love how perfectly the chocolate is incorporated into the drink every time. No matter how long it takes me to finish my drink, if the ice all melts or I drink it quickly, it tastes delicious. I just wish they had better food. I don't love how greasy their croissants and sandwiches are. I wish they had better breakfasts or served food with protein that was less oily. I don't think I've ever enjoyed a sandwich I've gotten from here, and I swear I try them at least every other month. The vibes totally make up for their gross sammies and are my favourite thing about this place!! I love coming here for a reading date or to craft and yap with friends. It feels like such a community oriented space and I love getting to enjoy it with my friends. I just wish they were open later than 6pm.

The lady was super nice. It's a tiny place and a one-woman run shop. It was a personable and cute experience. I wanted a fancy iced coffee because it was a bright and sunny day in Issaquah. I chose Kathy's special mocha, which was a white coffee with chocolate and caramel. It was delicious. Not too sweet, but very creamy. It didn't even taste like coffee, which makes me wonder what white coffee means. The little coffee shop also has a variety of other drinks some of them involving red bull or lotus energy. I liked the creativity, but I'd personally only come here for coffee and maybe a smoothie or one of their baked goods. They also have sandwiches. There was a daily special sign that said specialty drinks are 10% off, but I didn't see the sign until after I ordered and idk if my drink counted as a specialty drink or if I got the discount. Haha. Oh well. It felt good to support a local business even though drinks are half off at Starbucks every Friday in May. They weren't getting much other business while I was there even though the taco place was crowded with people. I felt a little bad. If you ever find yourself in Issaquah and are looking for a nice coffee, this might be your place! I know I enjoyed it!

Today I decided to get it hot and it tasted incredible, I love that Ladro is sustainable and does for here orders in ceramic tableware! Ladro used to also carry Ellenos yogurt and I loved being able to buy a local brand, but recently they switched to a different distributor and the one time they had the new yogurt in stock it didn't compare. They haven't had yogurt in stock since and honestly I don't love their croissants (too oily), banana bread (no chocolate chips), or croissandwiches (again the croissant texture sucks). Please bring back Ellenos, or have better food, I want to be able to have breakfast when I come here with my friends.

It's been a while since I've visited regent bakery, so seeing one in issaquah was a pleasant…read moresurprise! The area was smaller than expected, but clean with a limited selection of bakeries and lots of cake slices. I was surprised to see how expensive the cakes were, even some of my favorite breads like the coconut cream were closer to $4 each! Unfortunately, given the current economy, I believe this is now the standard cost of dessert breads. I got two breads and one drink! The green tea bun was great- there was a generous amount of filling, and the combo of mochi with cream was very satisfying. The pineapple bun was also delicious, I loved that there was filling inside which kind of reminded me of a cocktail bun/custard bun. Both breads had the standard Asian bakery texture that I love- soft, chewy, and not too sweet or dense. The milk tea flavor was a great combo, though I found the drink to be pretty sweet at 50%. Of the two pastries, the green tea is my favorite! Overall, the bakery tasted as good as I remembered. However, given its prices, I don't see myself coming back often.

From the moment we walked in, the staff were so kind and friendly. The woman behind the counter immediately greeted us and asked if we needed help. I love small businesses that make you feel like you're a part of the family. Even though we weren't sitting in the cafe, I was obsessed with how open and clean it was. There's so much natural light and this would definitely be the perfect spot for a brunch date or coffee chat with friends. I ordered a belgian hot chocolate with oat milk and I adored how rich and creamy the chocolate was!! They made my drink perfectly and it stayed warm for hours while we were driving up to the pass. My boyfriend loved his Turkish Milk Tea, which he sweetened with sugar. I've tried iced milk tea but I've never had it hot, and the sip I had tasted of his drink was delicious! Neither of us had ever tried a Simit before and my taste buds loved with the light and airy texture of the dough. It tastes just like a sesame bagel and my boyfriend and I enjoyed sharing it. My boyfriend really appreciated how many authentic Turkish items were on the menu and that the flavours were so fresh and bold. We definitely will have to come back for lunch sometime!

There are a handful of tables which is nice and plenty of parking in the shared lot. My friends frequent this place since it is in Issaquah and convenient. The workers are trained well and are very polite. The drinks are made well, too. The space is kind of oddly shaped, but I like that they try to curate some seating and it's cute. The drinks are a little more classy than your average boba shop. I like that they offer seasonal flavors and on my last visit, I tried their sweet potato one that was their seasonal fall flavor and it was excellent. The drinks are maybe a little on the pricey side, but I enjoy the proper unique flavors and that their drinks are made well. If you ever find yourself in Issaquah and wanting some boba, this is the place to go!! There really aren't a lot of other places to go honestly. I like that I don't feel like I'm settling by coming here.

Located in a small business strip in Issaquah across from the Gilman Village, parking is easy to find in the lot, but it can be limited with the space and other businesses around. Inside, the shop is very cute, with pastel decore, velvet seats and tables, and plenty of places for photo ops. I ordered the ube matcha latte and the seasonal pandan donut, which were both good. I love ube, so was glad to know that they make their own ube flavoring here, which was the best part of the drink. I also liked the pandan donut, but it was very sweet and rich. The menu offers a lot to choose from, with different drinks and treats, including those you can see in the case, such as the ube cookie, ube basque cheesecake, etc. Glad to know Bobae has another spot on the Eastside, making it easy for me to get to.

The California Eggs Benedict came with grilled onions, which I absolutely loved. (You don't see onions typically in that dish.) Hash browns were meh. My favorite however was the avocado crema that came with the Breakfast Quesadillas. Creamy and flavorful-- they made the quesadillas sing. Quesadillas were scrumptious-- chock full of scrambled eggs, veggies, and green onions, this one is going to be on our repeat menu . We loved it so much that the person who served gave a complimentary cup to go as we were packing the leftovers. On that note I must say that the service was warm and attentive. We came on a weekday for brunch and were amazed to see how full it was. There was quite a bit of wait for lunch hour so this tells me how popular this place is. No wonder there are so many good Yelp reviews. This may just be our new family favorite.

I'm diabetic so I tend to ask for all sugar free drinks. First time, a few weeks ago I asked the gal at the window for all sugar free - redbull and syrups. She let the gal making the drinks know sugar free everything. The gal making the drinks started adding the regular syrups and I tried to tell the gal at the window that it should have been all sugar free. The gal making the drinks got frustrated and said "you should have told me" when she did. The gal at the window then said "it's okay we can give it to the next person" and the gal making the drinks in a snarky voice said "no one orders sugar free" and then proceeded to make my drink wrong again. Second time being last week, sent my coworker to get some drinks for us. I get really busy as I have back to back clients and needed a pick me up. Again, my coworker asked for all sugar free with a bit of cream in it. She was given the wrong drink and I only realized it after I had taken a big sip of it. Cream also curdles with sugar free drinks and it was not curdled. Wish they listened to their customers as some of us have dietary restrictions and also not making us feel like a burden for asking for sugar free items. Amazonia Cafe by the 76 in Issaquah is way better as in they listen and get to know their customers!

Many of us know the staff by name and they're always going out of their way to be helpful. Really warm, professional, inviting, and helpful. Yeah it can be busy, but that's because it's popular -- loads of people come in, and the staff is doing their best to make sure everyone is taken care of. I hear that the location is going to get an upgrade of furniture (which would be awesome), and can't wait. Kind of has the social and energy vibe of the University Village location here, which I dig as someone who originally hails from San Francisco. Thrilled that it exists in the city, and very much appreciate the wonderful job that Alex and her crew does on a regular basis. Again, it can be a madhouse at certain times of day, and it's busy, but that's what a neighborhood spot should be like. And I am very thankful for it.

The woman at the counter who took my order was so sweet. She helped me put together the perfect custom drink for me: a 16 oz oat milk dark chocolate mocha with raspberry syrup and raspberry cold foam on top! It was delicious, I loved how fluffy and sweet the cold foam was and the dark chocolate in the mocha was delectably rich. I was also super excited about their diverse pastry selection! I've never seen a raspberry cornetto before and I was super excited to order it. I loved that it was literally like having a croissant with jam which is one of my fave breakfasts! One of my pet peeves is when croissants are too flaky and hard to tear apart with your fingers, but this one was super easy to tear apart and eat, though it still was fairly messy. The cosy atmosphere made it easy for me and my book bestie to spend hours chatting over our drinks. I love the huge windows that allow for so much natural light an incredible view of Mount Sci. I'd definitely love to come back with my watercolours and paint it. Since this is my book bestie's fave coffee shop spot, I'm sure we'll be back here soon! I'm super excited to keep exploring their seasonal drinks.
