Super cute and quaint coffee shop in Madrona. I was craving something hot and yummy, so I stepped into here. I'm more familiar with the U-Village location, but I never dined in there. Service was nice and simple, but not stellar. I will say that the person who helped me was really accommodating to my request. I don't like for my drinks to be super sweet, so she made me a fresh cup of the London Fog mix. For food I had the ham and cheese croissant with cornichon butter. The cornichon butter was the main attraction for me, but once I tasted it, it was underwhelming. I could tell that the ham and cheese were good quality, but that still didn't justify the 14.00 price tag. I decided that I wouldn't ever order that again if I ever returned. Again, this is a cute place with some seating available against the wall. Perfect place to enjoy a hot drink and get some work done or meet a friend. read more

Ran out of coffee beans at the house, so figured we stopped by this coffee shop to restock out inventory. It's a very cute shop and it's spacious, but sadly, I feel like their coffee beans were overpriced ($25/bag). No line really and payment was quick since we just needed a bag of coffee. Not a whole lot of people inside compared to the matcha cafe across the street, so hard to say if the drinks are good. If we do come back, I'd hope the drinks are above our expectations. We def won't be back to buy just coffee beans though. read more

Mr West has nice vibe to it. The coffee is ok, but not great. Other reviewers are right the floor is oddly dirty with food and scraps of paper... it makes you wonder if it's intentional or they're just anti-broom. read more

Cute coffee shop! Here you'll find lots of Madrona locals looking to drink coffee, work remotely and in true Seattleite fashion, not say a word to anyone else. But that's why we love it! Coffee was good, service was speedy and the vibes were cozy. I got their root beer + espresso drink - call me crazy, but it was actually so good. I'll be back! read more

I was feeling adventurous after a morning workout the other day. Decided to stop and give this shop another chance. If Dante had included coffee shops in Inferno, this place would be its 10th circle. Let's start with what they claim is "coffee." Except it's not coffee--it's $5 steaming hot cat piss wearing a flannel and calling itself artisanal. I've had better flavor chewing on cardboard in a parking lot. It tasted like someone panic-brewed gas station drip through a crusty sock during a panic attack. The floors? A sticky mosaic of paw prints, mystery liquids, and broken dreams. You'd think I'd walked into a post-apocalyptic petting zoo. I live in this neighborhood. I own my home here--paid off in full, no mortgage, unlike most of the yoga-class nomads squatting in $4,000 rentals they can barely afford. Yet the moment I walked through the door, the temperature dropped ten degrees. As a Black man, I know the look: the stiff smiles, the side glances, the sudden rearranging of personal items like I walked in to audit their Spotify playlists. All I wanted was a decent cup of coffee, not a silent group therapy session on "how to process a confident Black homeowner." Instead, I'm greeted by a room that looks like someone lost a bet on cleanliness. A barista's jacket is balled up in the corner, a hoodie flopped across the entry rug like it fainted, and a backpack slouched in the middle of the floor like it also gave up trying. I couldn't tell if I was in a café or walking through someone's late-night Airbnb meltdown. Shelves? Bare. Not minimal. Just... sad. Looked like a scene from a zombie film after the looting. And the beans in the hopper? No lid. Just chillin'. Open to the elements, like they're trying to catch a breeze of dust, beard dandruff, and whatever cosmic funk drifts in from the sidewalk. That espresso shot? It tasted like drywall and passive aggression. This isn't a coffee shop. It's a $5 disappointment machine fueled by gentrified delusion and bad decisions. It's the kind of place where "community" is printed on the wall, but when someone from the actual community walks in, everyone clutches their overpriced chai like I'm here to repo their Wi-Fi. Final verdict: Don't waste your time or your taste buds. Brew at home. Where the floors are clean, the coffee doesn't come with judgment. read more

Staff is friendly and very competent. Food, including pastries, are pricey, so don't go hungry. I love the location and the relaxed atmosphere. read more

This place doesn't look like much from the outside (we almost missed it), but it is quite lovely inside! The menu is very inventive (there are egg creams and tonics in addition to coffee). The baristas were quite personable and knowledgeable about the menu. We decided on the cardamom tonic and got decaf (because it was after 2pm). The espresso floated on the tonic and looked incredible. And when mixed together, it was so refreshing! read more

Glad we tried it despite the average reviews. The coffee special with orange something was delicious and hot and actually served in a mug. Yeah, since the pandemic I've had to specially request mugs!! The breakfast Sammy was also delicious, the egg cooked like a frittata and the croissant hot and spot on. I'd come back again! Friendly staff as well. read more

Thrilled to have this new spot in the neighborhood. I've read the other reviews grousing about the fact that they do not have a full menu. Hey, it is what it is. A small, lovely coffee shop with a delicious (albeit limited) pastry selection. Let's just celebrate that, shall we? Service is fast and friendly...pastries are dangerously delicious. Welcome to Downtown Madrona, Mr. West. read more

I've been a customer for over a year now since I work across the street and I always order the same thing, a Seattle fog. If you don't know what a Seattle fog is, it is essentially a London fog (earl grey, milk, sweetener) but with cinnamon in it. Now today when I ordered the tea, I noticed it was much blander than usual but I thought maybe this barista doesn't make it as well as the person who usually makes it for me. However, as I continue to drink it I realize that there is no teabag in it, which there has always been one when I've ordered it. So I go back on my next break to tell him that I think he forgot to put my teabag in there and he insisted that there was tea in there and no teabag comes with it. I told him that when I had ordered it before it always came with a teabag and that it was bland. Now he's saying you must've gotten the London fog, that one comes with a teabag and the Seattle fog doesn't. Now I know he is just trying gaslight me and not refund/remake my drink. Not only have I been told multiple times by other baristas there that the two drinks are exactly the same but just has extra stuff in it, but I have also ordered both before and I know they come with teabags. Worst of all he is the manager so there is nothing else I can do. So I leave to go back to work knowing I just payed $7 for a 12oz tea that ended up just not having the main ingredient in it. I will be going solely to hi spot cafe from now on and will make sure to tell my coworkers what happened to me, as many of us go there. Good luck read more

Mixed up coffee order. Rather rude, stressed barista who is not in sync with the person taking orders. Cold croissant sandwich that is grossly overpriced for what you get. We had hoped this would be a neighborhood go-to, but it won't be. read more

Mr. west's u vill location has been my go to for perfection - both in terms of the quality of the food and drinks as well as service. The U vill location is like a well-oiled machine with personable service. The new Madrona branch, if it doesn't up its game to match that of its predecessor branches, will just hurt the U vill name/brand. With the exception of a blonde woman taking drink orders (who is lovely), the rest of the staff is zoned out and disinterested. First, this branch does NOT have the regular food menu. It just has baked goods and a couple simple toast options. Of the things we ordered, one was a Seattle Fog. After seeing about 10 customers who ordered after us receive their drink orders, I asked a brunette barista behind the counter about the status of our Seattle Fog. She replies, "oh I guess I could make you a Seattle fog but I don't know that I have enough ingredients left for that." I let her know that I already ordered that about 15 minutes ago. Another brunette with long hair (who may be the manager?) hears our convo but doesn't bother to help and just looks annoyed. Barista #1 proceeds to then make my London fog even though she just said that they barely had any ingredients left for that. Not a surprise that the London fog didn't taste like the normal London fog that I've gotten at other mr west locations. The place is also filthy as chunks of food dropped by customers were lying there on the floor beneath the tables and none of the four employees did anything about it the entire time we were there. The brunette with long hair who looks to be the manager (?) as she signed for a delivery instead decides to perch at one of the customer tables while sipping on some drink and typing on a laptop. One would expect the manager to take ownership and roll up her sleeves to do what's needed instead of ignoring the grunt work. Poor management. If the owners read this, as a loyal customer, my advice would be to get in there asap and get the managers and staff up to speed in whatever way you've done at the other locations. Also, a couple of other customers were also giving each other looks as a reaction to lackluster service and whispering about the shortfalls. read more

Similar to other reviews I think the largest mr wests are better! Their website online is deceiving as it shows they offer a full menu of food, this location offers 3 food options and coffee and that's it. I thought they would have much more as their website shows that they do. This one also was very VERY small, like 5 tables that comfortably sit 1. Two people could not work on one table with two laptops very easily. It was very expensive (but not surprised) about $23 after tax & tip for a croissant sandwich and an almond milk vanilla latte. Parking in the area isn't super great either bc it's a busy area & it's all 2-hour parking (just for those curious, that does not affect my review.) The staff were all really nice tho! But I came with 2 friends to work for like 4-5 hours & we had to use 3 tables unfortunately bc they were so small. We likely won't come back to this location, but will stick with the UVil! But that's because we came to work; if I was in the area and not planning on hanging out I would probably come back to grab a coffee. read more

I absolutely love the Seattle Fog (their take on a London fog) at Mr. West, and try to get them whenever I am in town, especially at the U Village location. Recently I went to UVillage and the line was out the door and moving incredibly slow, as it usually is. I finally left after waiting forever and thought that my hour long trip to Seattle was wasted. I went to run errands elsewhere and was so happy to discover this Madrona Mr. West, I even drove by twice because I couldn't believe it! I was in and out in seconds, no line and fast service. The staff were friendly (I find them to be very snobby at the other locations) and my drink was perfect. Everyone inside was smiling which just feels so rare in Seattle anymore I had to note it. This little outpost is the best of all the Mr. Wests, I do declare. read more

Tucked away in Madrona, Mr. West is a place to visit if you want good pastries and decent coffee. There are so many great coffee shops in the CD and Madrona. The best part of this one is the decor and the DELICIOUS maple bacon scone! Yum! Sweet and salty, part maple donut glaze and bacon chunks. My son devoured it! We also tried the Poppy Drop which was a better alternative to any poppy seed muffin. The americano and cortado were decent. I the customer service a plus- kind and considerate people! read more

First and last visit. Long wait (with no one else in line) while the server had her back to the counter, typing away on her phone. She was aware we were there, so I gave her the benefit of the doubt...maybe she was dealing with an emergency. However, when she finally could be bothered to take my order, it became clear that she just had zero customer service interest or skills. The latte was decent, but have had better. read more

Staffs were all so kindly and respectful. The food and coffee are bad and relatively too expensive to its plain flavors and simple processes. Bathroom was very smelly and dirty with so many flies. read more

I thought this was a good co-working space. The tables are individual circles though so if you like to chat with your friends or spread out your papers, it might be tough here. I got two savory pastries (I think one was a cheese danish), they were both delish. I got a cookie as well and it was harder than I wanted it to be. read more

It's just so dang crowded! And the menu is...interesting. But the coffee was great. And our food came out quick.

Food and drinks are great but I visited today with the two little boys I nanny, saw flies buzzing in their pastry display case and found a hair baked into the croissant that I shared with the two year old boys :( read more
