Can't tell, but it's milk tea with grass jelly, pudding, boba and taro milk tea
Megan L.

Ordered the milk tea with grass jelly, pudding, and boba and taro milk tea. Enjoyed both but would have liked more flavor to the teas and better boba. Coming from socal where boba is on every corner of every street, this just isn't the same but if there aren't that many options around, this will do. Service was quick and prompt!

0% sugar milk tea
Debbie N.

The ONLY bubble tea place I have found without powdered tea or creamer base. After developing gestational diabetes, I thought I couldn't have bubble tea because my sugars would spike. Then I started trying 0% and still, some places I still found my sugars were spiking. Then I started asking the bubbletea places if they use any powder. To my surprise, most places use powder. Meetea was the only place that did not spike my sugars- found in their webpage it was lactose free milk and organic tea. I'm now sold on the place as the only bubbletea place with actual quality ingredients

Grapefruit Passion Tea with boba

Came here to grab a quick bubble tea! The staff was very nice and answered some of my questions on the drinks. The store was cute and clean. I enjoyed my drink! Parking in cap hill could always be a challenge for me. Appreciated that I could grab a drink on the go while I was walking around the area.

Tiramisu Latte w/ Cloud

I popped into Meetea Cafe while on my lunch break and was pleasantly surprised! While a bit small, the cafe brings a cute and clean ambiance to study or catch up with friends. I ordered a tiramisu coffee for my coworker and I and we both loved it! The coffee was not overly sweet which I was a little worried about, and was topped with a yummy cream top! The barista Joyce was a great help and made sure our drinks would be to our liking!

Fun little tea spot. Good luck finding parking. Got the hot taro milk tea and a meetea family. Both were great!

Cold Purple Rice Cold Boba Green Milk Tea with Creama

Great boba find in Capitol Hill! Huge selection of drinks and some very unique ones included. Love that they also had a combo with a drink and boba toast! We ended up going with milk teas--the purple rice was such an interesting flavor and the foam on mine was super smooth! Reasonable prices too!

Boba Dirty Milk and Power Lychee Tea
Generous Y.

Edit in response to the owner: First of all, thanks for the comments! It's reassuring to see an owner who truly cares. I also ordered the taro milk tea for a friend and could not adjust the ice levels (only sugar) on the tablet which was my main complaint because I was delivering it. And as for the boba options, I think if you order one of the boba options and select an extra topping for 50 cents, you should get a double serving at least so you're not "wasting" your money. It's definitely good to know that all the names with boba include the topping for the future though. I'll be back and hopefully will be able to change my opinion. -- A solid boba spot but nothing overwhelming. I'm interested in revisiting specifically for the boba toast and another drink. I thoroughly enjoyed the boba, it's quite soft and chewy but could use some more flavor and sweetness. The texture is perfect but there wasn't too much flavor, I think most of the flavor in mine was from the brown sugar drink rather than the boba itself, but I can't quite say for sure. My biggest complaint is that you can't really alter ice levels here, at least not on the ordering tablets. You can adjust sweetness which is perfect, but you can't adjust ice to account for something like travel where you want to deliver to a friend or storage where you want to save a drink for later. Without adjusting, your drink could very well be watered down. I also have a personal complaint with the tablet ordering system because they have drinks that include "boba" in their name, but it's not completely explicit whether or not they come with the boba. I'd believe it, but I wanted to err on the side of caution and just added boba as a topping. The one employee working was making like 6 drinks close to closing hour (within 15 minutes or so) so I didn't wanna bug her with these questions (ice/boba). Attached is an image of the screen which notes "Boba Latte" but you also can add boba as a topping. I added boba to be safe and it's not like I got two servings or anything, just paid the 50 cents and I'm still not sure if it comes with boba. If it's less busy in a future visit, I'd definitely want to clarify. I honestly didn't even get that much boba, I had over half (12oz or so) of milk left when I finished all the boba drinking normally. It's a cafe so there's more than just tea. There are some amazing dessert options too and that is next on the list.b

Big macarons

Not super busy in a Saturday afternoon. After self-ordering on one of two machines inside the store (tiny space), you can wait inside or outside for a text to let you know your order is ready for pick-up. There was only one person making drinks, but the wait wasn't too long. I tried the Taro Dirty Milk with Crema ~$6 - boba was decent, the drink has a strong taro taste and works well with the crema. I ordered it 50% sweet, but I wish it was sweeter so I'd recommend 100% sweet instead. My friend had a fresh mango slushie drink, and she liked it also.

Cheese Boba Toast // feastingjess
Jessica J.

Now here's something I never knew I needed. I'm not sure what I was expecting when I heard Meetea offered cheese boba toast, but it definitely wasn't this. They told me it's "lava cheese" because it flows out like lava, but the only thing I can think to compare it to (at least in consistency) is cheese foam rather than actual cheese. It's light and definitely messy to eat. I lost half of the boba taking this pic *face palm* but maybe it was worth it lol. I got the power lychee drink and my friend tried the purple rice green milk tea. The power lychee was rather plain, so if you're looking for something more unique, I recommend their purple rice drink. Overall highly recommend visiting Meetea. My friend came 3x during our month in Seattle. Their menu is extensive and there are lots of good options.

Boba Taro Dirty Milk with Creama
Shirin B.

This place has really good boba. Also I'm a huge fan of taro and the taro options seem to be endless here. The dirty taro milk tea was the perfect amount of sweet (50%) and had real bits of taro! The boba was also made well - soft and chewy. The purple rice and homemade taro sauce toast was really fun since they made it from scratch and the inside filling was cold and refreshing and the outside was nice and toasty. It was the perfect compliment to one another and I was in taro heaven!

We went on a Saturday, and it was super busy, but I will say the line moved surprisingly fast, which I appreciated. A heads-up if it's your first time: the shop itself is very small, so most of the wait is outside, and they only let about 2-3 people inside at a time. Even with the crowd, the process was efficient, and the staff we interacted with were very nice. We wanted both savory and sweet, so we tried the popular beef & cheese bun, chicken teriyaki, and hazelnut roll. The beef & cheese bun was definitely the best thing we tried. It was warm, flavorful, and reminded me of the filling inside an Asian meat bun, which I enjoyed. The chicken teriyaki was disappointing. It didn't look anything like the photo they advertise, and the flavor was just okay, nothing memorable. The hazelnut roll was decent and not overly sweet, which I liked, but it wasn't something I'd go out of my way for. Overall, I personally think this place is a bit overhyped. The fast-moving line and friendly staff were a plus, and the beef & cheese bun was good, but based on what we tried, I'm not sure it fully lived up to the hype. Still, if you've never had it before, it may be worth trying once since they have plenty of other menu options.

I've been hesitant to visit Sea Wolf Bakers due to their prices. $8 baguette? Oomph. Well, in early…read moreMarch I finally decided to give them a try. And now I'm a regular... Through several visits: Baguette, Large ($7.95) - Great baguette with bubbling golden exterior complete with the perfectly baked crust even after waiting 3 hours before cutting in and eating. The interior has the perfect moisture level and is delightfully soft and chewy. The taste overall has a deep developed flavor. This is a great baguette. The only problem - the price. I can find ones for half the price that are maybe 80% as good as this one. (5/5) Seasonal Biscuit ($4.50) - This biscuit definitely isn't Southern-style. It's more of a drop biscuit, combining a relatively soft and tender interior with a nice exterior crust, without any flakiness or layering. The interior is almost cake-like in texture and crumb, and is plenty moist. They add plenty of fresh black pepper inside. It's distributed very evenly, giving a peppery bite with every mouthful. Parmesan is added to the top of the biscuit before baking, giving plenty of umami and richness but only on the upper layer. (4/5) Green Vinaigrette Cafeteria Style Pizza ($6.25) - The pizza is kept under a warming lamp, so it starts getting a little dried out after I assume a couple of hours spent there. I do love the base though - it's focaccia-like giving a really crunchy dark golden brown crust underneath, which supports the toppings. The pizza slice has lots of structural integrity and doesn't flop over. There's a base of fragrant concentrated tomato paste-like flavor which is topped with a very even layer of cheese. Since it's warmed rather than freshly baked, the cheese starts congealing a bit. The cheese is peppered with parsley, garlic, and a bunch of mustard seeds, giving a special zing. The toppings go all the way to the sides of the pie, making it great for people who dislike crust. Even though it's cafeteria style pizza that's kept under heat lamps, I quite liked it. I wonder if I can get a really fresh slice if I get there right at 11AM when lunch starts. (5/5) Chocolate Croissant ($6.10) - Great lamination with a very aesthetic honeycomb pattern. Baked on the harder side, causing fantastic crispy flaky layers to flake off, but also creating a darker golden brown character that is on the verge of bitterness. Nicely buttery soft and chewy interior. Chocolate is a darker variety, probably somewhere around 70%, so it has a pleasing balanced sweetness and chocolate flavor. It's not typical baton, instead seems to be a section from a bar. Still warm and melty even through I didn't eat the croissant until ~30 minutes after purchasing. When cooled down further, some red fruity notes start appearing, so this seems to be be pretty high quality. (5/5) White Sourdough ($12.60) - Now this is a loaf of bread. Superb crust, probably 2 or 3 times as thick compared to competitors, creating a supreme crusty bite with a chew approaching a hard crunch with almost caramelized molasses notes on the bottom. The interior is moist and tender with a pleasing slight sourdough tang. It's a superb piece of craftsmanship. (5/5) Kouign Amann ($5.80) - This is another heavier bake with some acridity development on the top surface. Unlike many other bakeries where the kouign amann is basically a differently shaped croissant with sugar glaze, Sea Wolf's version feels more in line with tradition. The crumb is denser and richer, more like brioche. There's interesting black speckling inside which I believe is due to the inclusion of espresso powder given the mild coffee-like flavor. The crust is again baked hard, but it's lighter and not as flaky as the croissant. They sprinkle just a bit of salt on top of a very light caramelized sugar glaze. It's not very sweet and I didn't find it too salty unlike some other reviewers. (5/5) Plain Focaccia Slice ($4.80) - Good quality olive oil, some salt sprinkled on top to boost the flavors. Light and airy interior, but the exterior is a little wan, being more light golden brown and lacking some good crusty crisp especially on the fried bottom. Quite oily. (4/5) Sea Wolf gives out free sourdough starter, which can be requested from the cashier. Since picking it up several weeks ago, I've gone through several feed/bake cycles for making sourdough focaccia. I've visited Sea Wolf 3 or 4 times in the last month. That's a testament to how high quality their pastries and breads are. I think the only thing stopping me from visiting more is thanks to the starter I got from them fanning my baking instincts. I bake so much now that I don't have any need to buy their bread! Note: Sea Wolf charges a 3% credit card fee. This is not noted on their menu - it only appears in the POS right before paying. Kind of sketchy. Bathrooms - Single unisex room

The kitchen is open, so you can watch as all of the scrumptious pastries are made. I liked the vibe here a lot. The space is shared with a bagel shop, but there is plenty of room for everyone. Service was fine. The line moved fast, and the prices were reasonable, comparable to other bakeries in Seattle. While I enjoyed the vibe at Sea Wolf Bakers a lot, I didn't think their pastries and coffee were nearly as good as some others I tried in Seattle. The espresso shot I tried was extremely bitter and just not as smooth as it should have been. The savory croissant was ok, but it lacked any big flavors, and the texture wasn't really croissant-like. The hit cross bun was just unimpressive and not very good at all. Overall, I would probably skip Sea Wolf Bakers next time. It's ok, but there are so many other amazing bakeries too. Maybe I tried the wrong stuff?

The hojicha latte was rich and earthy in the best way, and it went really well with the black sesame cookie, which had a great strong sesame flavor, and the texture was perfectly chewy! The focaccia was pillowy and chewy at the same - I could've eaten five of these on their own. The frittata was my least favorite item, but by no means am I saying that it's bad!

I really was looking forward to trying a cardamom croissant or bun but they didn't have either available. My iced latte was alright. Nothing to go crazy over. The cherry foam for an additional $2.00 was very pretty but that's where it stopped at. Absolutely no cherry or sakura flavor. Disappointed. The sesame cookie had a great smell to it. The aroma of sesame was strong. The cookie had a nice crisp to the edge and a chewy center. The sesame taste wasn't as strong as the smell. The spicy chicken sandwich on special was not spicy at all. It was overwhelmingly sweet from the orange glaze/sauce on the kitchen. It was a decent sandwich and I definitely finished it. Just not something I would gravitate back to. I understand the reviews about how this place doesn't live up to some extra hype. It's decent, solid and a great option for the area but to go out of your way for and wait thirty minutes in line? Not really.
