Good option for coffee in the area. No inside seating but lots of outdoor seating. Service was friendly and kind. Get one of the flavored/special lattes! I also like their merch.

Iced latte

Monorail Espresso is a well-known coffee shop in Seattle with multiple locations. All have the model of a walkup window to order, which seems like an efficient concept. I stopped by this location while on a trip since it was within walking distance of my hotel. The exterior is super cute with multiple tables and different seating areas on an outdoor patio. It was a nice day so my friend and I sat for a bit and enjoyed our coffee together! Our barista was very friendly and nice and made good drink recommendations based on our preferences. I tried a seasonal iced cherry blossom latte, and it reminded me of Cherry Garcia ice cream! It was so good without being overly sweet. My friend got a matcha which was really balanced and nice. This is a great place to stop by for a quick morning coffee on your way somewhere or catch up with a friend over a coffee date. They have seasonal drinks as well as vegan milk. Prices are very reasonable as well! Check out their Instagram for seasonal flavors and updates.

Iced mocha

Part of Seattle's "newer" convention center. Cool design and great coffee. Friendly baristas. Seating with heat lamps all around. They have numerous kiosks/locations all around downtown Seattle that's walking distance from this one. I always get the iced mocha but friends have tried other drinks and say they're better than a lot of other coffees/teas they've had before. Busy area with lots of dining, hotels, the freeway, and entertainment around.

The coffee may be good. I never found out, as the staff was more interested in chatting than selling coffee. Very poor service.

coffee 5/5 i got the coconut coffee blended ($7). it comes…read moremildly sweet, so i asked for it to be a little sweeter. it was incredible! i feel that blended drinks often lose the coffee taste, but not this beauty. the coffee flavor was delicious and mixed well with the coconut. if you prefer your drinks blended and like coconut, this is your girl! service 5/5 staff was helpful and walked me through my options to make the drink to my preference. cafe 5/5 they must have recently added tables and chairs. i love that i can sit in and they have free wifi. everything was clean and tidy. parking is street only and could be hard to find. only a few blocks from the columbia city light rail stop. overall, i'm excited to go back and get some work done while i try other items on the menu!

I used to be a regular at Coffeeholic and brought a lot of visitors here. However, the last two…read moretimes I went, I got a stomachache and so did my friend who was visiting Seattle. I noticed that they now pour drinks from a pre-made plastic jug instead of making them fresh like when the store first opened. I usually don't get sick from drinking coffee but twice in a row is pretty bad. Their drinks are also overly sweet and most of them do not have a 0% sweet option, which is usually what I order from other coffee and tea shops, and it's probably because most of the ingredients are pre-mixed. They also use thick plastic cups, considering that Seattle is a pretty green city and a lot of similar Vietnamese coffee shops use sustainable cups. Sad to say, but my time visiting this chain has come to an end.
