I am staying at a hotel two blocks away and needed a snack and warm beverage before my dinner and the hotel recommended Leon coffee house. I looked up their yelp page as well as their Instagram and knew I had to come just to get one of their lattes with their amazing foam art! They have a variety of waffles and sandwiches on the menu that seemed appetizing however because I got here after 3:30 the kitchen was closed but they have a variety of pre-made burritos and sandwiches that you could still buy. I love that they have a huge variety of non-dairy milks including soy which is my favorite. I wanted to get the turmeric latte however I mentioned that I couldn't wait to see the foam art and the Baristas told me that due to the light color of the latte, it would be difficult to see the foam art so I instead ordered the red velvet latte with soy and it was as delicious as it was cute! I also got the egg and sausage cheese burrito and it was chock full of eggs and sausage... very filling. The decor and seating options are plentiful upstairs and downstairs. They also have free pineapple infused water for guests to drink which I appreciate. Seems like a popular spot for UW students to do work as there are lots of outlets for their laptops.
Highly recommend the mango latte. It's smooth, strong, and very refreshing with a really nice balance of flavors that makes it stand out. Service was efficient and fast on a Thursday morning. The interior is bright and spacious with plenty of seating, making it a great spot to catch up or get some work done. They also offer food options like bagels, burritos, and tamales, which is a nice bonus. I also loved the cute designs they put on their hot café drinks. There's a good selection of interesting specialty beverages here, so I'll definitely be back to try more.
I love going there because of their food and drinks that are Mexican inspired drinks mixed with other styles of drinks . I love their chicken sandwiches and when you order food it comes with tostada on the side . The cafe itself has a beautiful interior decor and the staff are nice as well.
So so so cute, love it. My coffee was really good and sweet and I liked it. Exactly how I like my coffee, cute looking and very sweet. Wanted to get iced but I wanted the cute decor. Service was pretty nice and the spot is pretty cute.
Came here to do some work. This place is a very cute coffee shop with an upstairs that they label as the computer camping room. I sat up here and was able to easily find a table with an outlet nearby if needed. I ordered a horchata latte and a concha to snack on. I enjoyed both of these here. I would definitely come back here.
Leon Coffee House is both a great place to study and a good place to grab fun drinks with friends. My personal favorite is the Chai, which is served hot in a mug. They also have food, which I have never tried. When ordering up front, the staff are helpful and welcoming.
I recently went with my friend to Leon Coffee House for a quick chat. It's super cute inside and I like the eclectic decor. The menu is so creative and really shines the latin vibe that the cafe offers. My server was very nice and made the latte 3d art as soon as i asked if they do it for the drink i was ordering. i got the CUTEST kitty however, my friend got a similar hot drink and didn't get and latte art so i hope that they can keep the art consistent for every customer. i loved the taste of my flan latte that they pair with a free biscoff biscuit and would come here again in a heartbeat! also check out the cute pillows near the front- you will not be disappointed
Super cute big cafe! The pink vibe is so cute! Service is friendly but to find places that cater to my specific diet of low sugar- no sugar items is hard. The only sugar free options they really had was the cold brew or the hot tea options. I wanted to try some of their specialty drinks but the options were very, very minimal. I do think that they have lots of potential but may not be specifically for me. It was also a little strange that they gave out tickets for you to come up and get your order. The last coffee shop really catered to the senior population and brought out the drinks and food when ordering. Again, it might just be my one preference of a cafe experience .
To be honest the experience was average. Blown away by the cafe being soooo cute! Latte art doesn't disappoint and upstairs has a cute Barbie box and swing chair for photo opportunities! However service is a little questionable and food and drink is a bit bland and average. I went in for a brunch around 10:30-11:30am time on a Sunday. Cashiers weren't overly friendly but not rude just very distracted it seemed and I wasn't offered a punch card or told I was charged extra for something.... I ordered the 12oz horchata latte and chilaquiles with no sour cream and extra salsa. After I got home looking at my emailed receipt I noticed I was charged a whole $1 more for extra avocado??? I didn't receive extra avocado and no mention of that charge being made to my purchase...also never asked for any extra avocado. I felt that was a bit weird and sneaky tbh. Confusing. I should be told if I'm being charged extra for something... Not much avocado even in the dish tbh. It would make sense if I was charged for extra salsa but idk weird...made it feel a bit untrustworthy for me as a paying customer. The food did come out before the drink. Chilaquiles were okay. I finished my plate. Salsa is not spicy and dish was average. Horchata latte was so cute but bland...where was the cinnamon? I am a bit disappointed as I had high hopes but the experience was mediocre being honest. I don't see myself returning here really unless I'm in the mood to hang and take cute pics with my boyfriend or friends and get a cute latte art. Definitely a cute spot but if you're looking for good coffee there are better options in the area like sip house. I was so excited to try their chilaquiles, me encantan los chilaquiles, pero aquí fue un poco decepcionante. Ojalá hubiera tenido una mejor experiencia, pero aún así disfruté del ambiente.
I've tried a ton of drinks here the past few months so here is a review of everything I've tried thus far: Overall I really like the drinks here. Super well priced and relatively affordable. Food appears to be from Costco or made with Costco ingredients. My only complaint is drinks are not very hot. If you take it to go and don't drink it for a while it will get lukewarm fast, but on the bright side, ok to drink immediately. Grab a punch card for a free drink after 10 drinks purchased! Service is impeccable. No issues. Ambiance is casual, great for studying. Fav drinks: mango latte, mocha diablo Mexican mocha: the first time I tried it I thought it was ok and that it could use more cinnamon. The second time around, I ended up liking it more. It's not too sweet Matcha latte: tasted exactly like a matcha pocky. So probably not the best quality matcha, but it was sweet and fun. I'd get this again. Butterfly latte: great butterfly pea flavor! Sweet. I think this would be a great option for kids. Mocha Diablo: It's literally their mocha but spicier, as in it warms the back of your throat and a bit of your tongue. It is amazing to drink on a very cold winter day, which is how I enjoyed it. Super flavorful. I drank this drink SO fast it was so good. 100% would get again Mango latte: wasn't sure what to expect with this but I really enjoyed it! I debated on whether to get it cold or hot (because warm mango sounds gross) but I got it hot and ended up really enjoying it! Mango flavor is not strong but it lends a slight fruity, sweetness to the coffee that was very pleasant. Would get again. Velvet latte: this did remind me of a red velvet cake the first few sips before tasting mainly like sweet milk. Very milky but super cute with the red/pink color. Another good option for kids. Personally would not get this again. Maybe I should try it with a shot of espresso? Americano: great. Just what you would expect. Horchata latte: Good but way too sweet for me. I couldn't detect a lot of cinnamon or almond flavor unfortunately. It is very creamy however and while you can taste the coffee, it's not very strong. Would love another espresso shot in this or make it less sweet. I ended up putting some drip into it when I got to my office. I would not get this one again, sadly. Crema de leche: a little forgettable tbh. I wouldn't get this again Turmeric latte: I add a shot. It was fine. I tasted the turmeric. It would be nice if it was spiced with something else. It is chalky at the bottom
This was a super cute coffee shop and cafe that was right across the street from our hotel. What a great find! We had the ham, egg and cheese croissant, the turkey sandwich and for a little sweet treat... the churro waffle (our fav!). The decor was colorful and fun. The girls behind the counter were very sweet and quick to take our order. They are also known for their latte art, but we already had coffee. We would return here just to see what cool art they put on our latte! Lots of seating too!
Leon is a solid coffee shop for a pick-me-up and getting some work done. If you get a hot drinks, they will make you the cutest latte art! I got a hot matcha latte and they made me a shrek - so cute! Their drinks are definitely on the sweeter side though. Leon is centrally located in U District, so you'll always see people studying and working here but it's never hard to find a table.

This cafe is super cute, a close walk from my apartment and the bus and is very spacious ! It has both down and upstairs seating. The decor isn't overwhelming but fits the theme of the cafe. Service was quick & friendly. They give you a number ticket and hand it out right by the register. I got the chorizo and bean burrito which might have been a heavy choice for breakfast BUT it was oily at all! There's a very distinct pork fat flavor and a little crunch from the beans. I wouldn't say the salsa is spicy initially...the heat builds as you eat it and doesn't linger on the tongue. I also got the seasonal pumpkin latte (not pictured) which came with Jack Skelton art! It wasn't too sweet which I appreciate from a flavored latte. 10/10 can't wait to come back read more
My friend and I arrived at the coffee shop around 9:30 am for breakfast. Cafes open late in Seattle which was surprising to me. Within walking distance to my hotel, I had to try! AMBIENCE: Love the atmosphere of the place with its classical cute energetic aesthetic. The place has some surreal decor from paintings, parasols above, marble tables, and a swing set on the second floor. A lot of customers were students who were fitting the cafe study chill aesthetic; the cafe has a dedicated study space for students on the second floor. SERVICE: pretty simple with picking up your order at the counter and you'll bus your own table after dining in. ORDERS: I ordered the mango latte and bacon waffle. - Mango Latte: Super cute instagrammable item that they can do latte art for you! My latte art was jigglypuff from pokemon :o The flavor profile was so nuanced with the bright notes from the mango and bitterness from the latte. Creamy, filling and warming on a windy seattle morning! -Bacon Waffle: Soft yet crispy waffle with deviled eggs, syrup, mascarpone cheese, and a bed of bacon bits sprinkled on top. Lots of protein from the egg and cheese! I liked this dish, but I didn't enjoy the mascarpone cheese since it didn't compliment any of the savory flavors from the bacon and egg or the sweetness from the waffle. RATING: Would definitely visit this place again! read more
Super cool little coffee shop with a very unassuming entrance. That's actually a lot bigger then you would think they have plenty of seats and Wi-Fi as well as a dedicated area on the second floor to study and get things done. Really enjoyed their specialty drinks and appreciate that they let you order them without art if you are in a rush read more

If I was a student at UW I'd be coming here every day to study. The interior is so cute! I knew this from the pics on Yelp but seeing it in person was even better. Whether you like sitting in the bar, at a table, or booth, behind cute decor or just a neutral space, this place literally has all that, and multiples of it. It was designed SO well. They call the upstairs the "computer camping room" where you can sit for an unlimited amount of time, whereas they ask those on the 1st floor to limit to 90 mins. In the camp, there's a charger for about one in every 4 seats. It's full as early as 9am. Horchata latte - to die for! At a glance you'd think this would be an over-sweetened place good for instagram and coffee art, but it truly has good coffee. Basically it has everything you'd want from a perfect coffee shop. (Except proper AC?) Will try the famous waffles next time! read more

I love this place! Great food, friendly servers, fun vibe, dig Spanish tunes, plenty of Instagrammable settings. Chilaquiles are the best, coffee art whimsical, great for work or studying. I'm a regular. read more
The cutest Latino owned cafe. The interior design is so cute, I had too much fun taking photos of the aesthetic decor! The workers were all really nice and welcoming. We ordered the taro latte with soy milk and the Mexican mocha with regular milk. I loved my taro latte and my friend liked her Mexican mocha. The latte art was so cute, it made the drink even tastier . One thing to note: if you are visiting for the latte art you must have a drink with whole milk or soy milk. I'm usually an oat milk drinker but I opted for soy and it was very tasty! Definitely highlight recommend this place for the drinks and art, can't recommend the food because we didn't get any bites! read more
Super cute decor and fun ambiance. The servers call out numbers and seemed to get orders out pretty quickly and efficiently. They do latte art on almost every drink too, which is pretty cool. Their menu was a unique blend of 'typical' cafe fare with some Latinx influences and flavors. I liked that they have rotating specials too. Highly recommend the flan latte! read more
First time at Leon Coffee House, and I'm already looking forward to coming back! I tried out one of the burritos, and it was delicious. I would highly recommend the Potato & Chorizo burrito. The Horchata Latte was delicious as well, and the sandwiches were a great portion and delicious. We had a little mix up receiving our initial order, and the employees were extremely kind and were happy to remake one of the sandwiches we ordered. Great food and drinks as well as a great ambiance! read more
What a gem in the U-District. Best Mexican-flavored anything (that usu means cinnamon; can mean chile but did not this time) I've had since a Mexican chocolate ice cream in San Antonio years ago. Been searching for that sensation ever since and this was it - with the Mexican-flavored coffee. I wanted to purchase a second one just to take home and keep with me forever and ever. Sad that the kitchen closed at 3 (boo) but enjoyed the bagel we got out of the glass case. The only disappointment was the muffin which was very "typical" and did not have any personality, which was a letdown after the surge of personality the rest of the establishment offers, both in its food, its vibrant cheerful staff and its eclectic decor. Pse consider a more gourmet muffin selection, with crumblier tops and less of a manufactured taste. Otherwise 100% great and will return whenever possible. PS I forgot to give a shoutout to their creative adherence to the no-plastic straw requirement - thank you for caring about the environment. So many people and businesses have complained about this while Leon has jumped into the spirit with a delightfully cute collection of decorative paper straws. read more
I was looking for a coffee spot near where I was staying and this place popped up on Yelp. Plus, I'm a sucker for latte art, so when I saw some of the photos, I knew I had to stop by. What a cute little gem this place is. I definitely would be spending more time here if I lived nearby. Decor is light, airy, and spacious with many tables where students can study or folks who were visiting can grab a quite bite to eat along with a good cup of coffee. Food wise - they have cakes, savory and sweet waffles, sandwiches and tamales. I tried their savory bacon waffle which was covered in bacon bits and a sliced hardboiled egg with a side of butter and syrup - savory and sweet...yum! My friend got the cinnamon apple waffle which had both cooked apples in cinnamon and sliced fresh apples that gave it a nice texture contrast. Coffee drinks - plenty to choose from. I got the horchata latte and it was perfectly cinnamony and creamy without being too sweet. My friend ordered the Mexican mocha which also was good. And did I mention the latte art? Prices are reasonable for what you order and there's something for everyone. It is semi-self serve set up, they give you a number after you order and then they yell the number when your drink / food is ready. Then you clean your own tables afterwards. I don't mind the semi-self serve part as it is located in a busy student area and I understand it likely has a lot of turnover, but I would like to have some Clorox wipes or something to help clean the table before I sit down. read more

The vibe is super relaxed! perfect for hanging out, reading, or getting a little work done. What really makes it special is the latte and hot chocolate art. They can make the cutest cartoon designs that seriously make your day. read more
Absolutely LOVE this place! Beautiful decorations, it's totally social media worthy! The coffees are so beautifully thick and creamy! I love the waffles too, they have really interesting Mexican inspired flavors! The food comes really quickly and the front desk staff are really nice even when I'm taking a long time to pick from their amazing menu :) I'm not normally a coffee person (it's Seattle, I know) but this is on my rotation of places to go for a good drink and study session! read more
4.5 stars. I tried the Mexican mocha and it was good! Not too sweet and I could taste the cinnamon and chocolate. They topped it with an intricate Grinch in the foam on top. I wanted to also try the horchata latte, but only had one last day in town. Next time! I wish they had slightly more options for breakfast -- I was craving a sandwich and did not see that advertised until I had already paid. The tamales looked good. It took them a while to make the drinks, but I thought this was fair for the craftsmanship that goes into them (see my photo for proof!). I liked the space; it is big and I appreciated that the front door was open to encourage air flow. If I lived closer, I would be here often! (They seem to have a loyalty card, so I would totally use that too.) read more
Really cute coffee shop with lots of 2-top tables, it seemed like most clientele were students camping out to study on a weekday morning. I enjoyed my chai latte (4/5 stars) and loved the cute decor (5 stars). Servers were friendly and fast. read more
This place is super nice! Chairs are a little cold but nice space, lots of windows. The service is super quick and they have cute latter art! The latter was tasty. A little sweet for me but overall I'm. They offer a lot of food too, didn't try it this time but it sounds yummy. read more

Really cute cafe that is great for brunch! The latte art blew me away, especially since each one is different (at least across the 4 or so that I saw). There's a decent amount of seating both upstairs and downstairs, although it does seem to fill up quickly. Lattes were quite tasty, whereas the Guadalajara waffles pork carnitas were a little on the blander side on their own (remedied with more sauce). read more

The beauty of the aesthetic at Leon Coffee House is truly captivating. They've really beautiful interior and it has good seating. Coffee is good. I tried their Avacado toast once and it was pretty good too. Overall, a cute and nice place to hang out. I would rather want to put this one as Instagrammable coffee shop :P read more

Wow, I don't remember the last time I felt compelled to write a Yelp review on the spot. Thanks to Leon Coffee House, here I am writing about how much I love this place. Located conveniently near the U-District light rail station, Leon Coffee House is a family-owned business serving Mexican-inspired coffees. I've passed by Leon during my Goodwill runs that I just had to take a coffee break here before I continue decluttering my old apartment. I went with the first thing my eyes spotted: a horchata latte. I've had plenty of horchata lattes in Seattle but THIS one really took my break away. You definitely taste horchata in this delicious cup of coffee. It goes down so smooth and velvety, and the cookie adds a nice touch. And the latte art is adorable, but keep in mind they only do latte art with whole and soy milks. I also love how they decorated the shop. Lots of interesting and fun art (I love the Frida portraits!), neon sign accents and the laid back music. There's options to lounge around at a table, couch or the counter overlooking 45th. I shall return soon, Leon Coffee House. Thank you for that perfect horchata latte. read more
My go-to coffee shop! Although the crowd is mostly students because it's in the U District, it is such a gem. I love Mexican coffee and there are few in the Seattle area. I love their Horchata Latte but there are so many other drinks I want to try along with their affogato! The food is delicious too. Everything is made fresh and with quality. I love the decor. Such a great vibe for a coffee date or getting work done - it's loud so don't take calls from here. If you're looking for a good coffee shop and not the standard Starbucks run, definitely make sure you come here! read more
Thanks for your message Jose! I wanted to point that I never was or am against any racial stuff. I did write how Tortilla chips are in combination for Caprese sandwich. No where have I pointed out that I don't like Mexican restaurants- your words are wrong. That's not what I said in my earlier edited review as well. Also I was told by your staff that the computer camping room is also 90 min only. So it's not like I made this up on my own. Also in the entire cafe, there's no board which says restroom. To the sandwiches being pricey, yes I felt they were for the portion size. Many other people mentioned the same too fyi read more

I loved this place! For starters, it is Hispanic family owned. We love supporting a small business, especially my fellow Latines. They have a large menu for both coffee and non-coffee drinks. I got the mint matcha and that was superb. Their oatmilk made everything extremely rich and creamy, I loved it. They do use paper straws, you either love that or hate that. They also have so many food options. Most of their food is typical American coffee house food. However they have chorizo breakfast sandwich on croissant. But what my friend and I really loved was the fact that they have Tamales!! We got two red pork, a chorizo and cheese, a cheese and pepper, and when we first arrived we saw they had chicken. They were very flavorful, but could use a touch more salt in the masa. Because this is in the U district, parking sucks (not their fault but just point out a fact for those who have parking anxiety!). What a Seattle gem! read more

What a fun find on the Ave! Located right on 45th, Leon Coffee House is a cute coffee shop that serves a variety of Mexican inspired drinks, waffles, sandwiches and more. Parking can be a bit tricky since it's street parking only - we managed to find a spot a few blocks down on 45th. The shop itself has a good amount of seating with several tables out in the front, seating in the back and a few additional seats and tables upstairs. Since it was our first time visiting, we got a Latte, Cafe Madrid and Churro Waffle. The drinks were flavorful and you could tell that they used quality coffee beans, and the latte art was so adorable. The Churro Waffle was kind of a miss though - it came covered in whip cream, so you can't really get much of a churro taste. For $10, I think the waffle's texture was fine, but it wasn't anything mind-blowing and I would skip it the next time around. Leon Coffee House seems like a popular spot for meet-ups or study dates, and is a fun addition to the businesses by UW. read more

Such a cute place i saw by UW. I read the good reviews about it and decided i had to try it out while in town. Glad i did, service was fast and employees were helpful with the food menu or questions i had. I decided just to get a cappuccino, relax and read a book while enjoying the cute decor and a cute butterfly/ puppy cappuccino drink which was so hard to drink because it was so dam cute as you can see. Definitely a cool spot to try out and hang out in. read more

This is a super cute place near campus. The food is Latin inspired and delicious. It's chic, whimsical, and comfortable. it's great for to meet a friend for lunch or to spend the day studying. My coworkers and I met here to celebrate the end of the quarter and each other. This was the perfect place with it's bright and cheery atmosphere. We sat in the back and did have some difficulty with having enough room for all of us, but we made due. Truly recommend this little shop on 45th right on the bus line and minutes walk from main campus. read more
I came here to study this past week, excited by the beautiful latte art I've seen on Yelp. For those of you who are familiar with the U-District coffee scene, Leon Coffee House took over the old Slate Coffee Roasters spot on 45th. Their logo is a cute lion (note that Leon is lion in Spanish) that reminds me of the Hawaiian Lion Coffee logo. I came here at around 9am on a weekday and there were only a few other people dining there. The barista was friendly and was patient while I figured out what I wanted to order. Cafe Leon has a variety of waffles and sandwiches (all $9-$10), desserts/pastries (muffins, macrons, mousse), bagels, etc.. I ended up ordering a 12-oz horchata latte (+$4.85) with oat milk (+$0.50) and a Brie and berries waffle ($9). With tip, my total came to about $17, which is definitely on the steeper side, but not outrageous for U-District prices. One unique thing about Leon is that they have a stamp card and a stamp card rack organized by name so that you don't have to remember to bring it with you; I believe the deal is buy ten drinks, get one free. While I waited for my order, I explored the renovated interior of the cafe. Unlike Slate's minimalistic interior, Cafe Leon is bursting with bright vibrant colors, Frida Kahlo paintings, a rainbow staircase, a neon pink Barbie themed upstairs, crystal chandeliers, neon signs, and an old TV with a static screen just for decoration. They also blast Latino music that is almost too loud to study to. Besides the layout of the cafe, the place was almost unrecognizable. I got my order within 15 minutes of ordering and took it upstairs where no one else was seated. I give the barista an A+ for the cute snowman latte art, but the latte barely tasted of horchata (cinnamon rice milk drink). Maybe it was just me, but I tasted notes of peppermint and barely any cinnamon (might've just been a psychological effect of associating the snowman with peppermint but still strange). It was also really sweet and so I should've asked for half sweetness; I acknowledge that was on me though. However, I liked that they give a complimentary cookie with your drink- definitely a nice added touch even if it's just a basic Lotus cookie that you get on Delta Airlines. The waffles were fluffy and homemade, but they only give you two of them which in my opinion, are not worth $9, especially since they're the size of freezer waffles you get at the grocery store. I also was confused of why my waffles didn't have brie and instead just had a small condiment container of Eggo maple syrup, but I now realize now that they got my order wrong and gave me the Waffles with Fruit instead. Although the fruit was fresh, they give you only a small handful. The plating was nice with the chocolate drizzle on the side, but not enough to justify the cost. Overall: 3/5 for food/drinks, 3/5 for service, 3.5/5 for atmosphere read more

Worth it for the latte art!! The little pig on my velvet latte was so cute and it honestly made my so happy. The food was so-so, I got a caprese sandwich and nothing really stood as super tasty. The bread was sort of stale, the cheese was just alright. BUT! The cute drink makes up for it all :) read more

Overall, this is a cute coffee house with excellent food and coffee. Food: they have waffles and breakfast sandwiches so it's not just coffee and treats. You can actually get a good breakfast here! The coffee is great. You get a number and they call you up to retrieve the food. Chorizo breakfast sandwich is my favorite thing here! I only had the strawberry shortcake waffle but I thought the whip cream was a bit excessive but that is mostly a personal preference. Ambiance: top tier for studying, hang out, chilling. The vibes are amazing!! Service: pretty solid. Nothing terrible or spectacular. Everyone's nice I was here to study but there a lot of construction going on which is why I'm leaving a 4/5 - knocking it for the location. read more

Came here on a Friday morning, when it wasn't too busy! The decor in Leon is so whimsical and pretty! We got the taro latte and crema de leche, and then sat down to do some work. The cafe has a "computer camping" room set up upstairs for mealtimes/when it gets busy so you can do work all day long. Obviously, the best part of Leon is the super cute latte art--very instagrammable. The lattes themselves didn't have a strong flavor, especially the taro one, but it was worth it for the art! read more
I've been to Leon twice now -- wow, it's a 10/10 all around. The ambiance is easily one of the most comfortable coffee shops I've ever stepped foot into, and very instagrammable as other reviews have stated. In addition, their service is also top tier. Everyone is so kind and seems like they genuinely want to provide a great experience to guests. Their menu is expansive, but surprisingly -- very fairly priced! I had the hot earl grey tea, which came with a free Biscoff cookie (so nice!) and side of oat milk (upon request). It was delicious. They also have free sugar, half and half, honey, and vanilla syrup to add by yourself on a bar right next to the ordering station. In addition, this small touch really made a difference for me: their watermelon infused water! Even their napkins, which have a gold design - this place knows how to do details well. Definitely going to be coming here regularly from now on, and exploring their food options in the future. Again, 10/10. read more
Omg I was upset slate coffee was gone but this becomes my new favorite. They use Cafe Darte. They have great Mexican infused coffee menus. I loved my Mexican Mocha. Home made flan was thick and rich egg flavor that melts in your mouse. They did cute art work on my coffee and I enjoyed messing with it . I would definitely come back again to try out different Mexican influenced signature coffee menus. read more

SUCH a good spot for breakfast! The vibes are great and they have a cute umbrella ceiling! I got the ham bagel and the Nutella latte and both were 10/10! The bagel was a cheese and jalapeño bagel, and they loaded it with ham, lettuce, tomato's, and onion! It was actually a really generous size as well. Bigger than a normal bagged bagel. The latte was decorated so cute! The seating was a little tight, but overall the space was laid out as decently as it can be for the allowed seating space! The service was nice and quick, and we only waited about 5 minutes for our orders! Highly recommend! read more
I dropped by here on an early Sunday morning to grab a quick drink to go. I ordered the iced mint matcha latte. Although it was pretty busy, they were able to quickly make my drink within about eight minutes. The coffee shop itself was cutely decorated and smelled so good. It looks like they make a variety of sandwiches and waffles as well. I didn't love my mint matcha latte. The matcha flavor wasn't strong enough for me. I'd come back to try a different drink and the waffles. read more

Curious....same owners as Moore coffee?
It was the same owner, he sold moore coffee and opened leon coffee house.
Question for UDistrict/UW/Seattle old timers...before Leon, this was Xanadu Comics, then (?) Cafe, then a goth spot (?), then Slate. Thanks!
It was Trabant Coffee before Slate, they had the best Chai Lattes.
