    Great service, cozy setting. A wonderful place to enjoy delicious coffee. Tasty latte and espresso shots. Ways to park and easy to find a seat to enjoy our coffees.

    had such a pleasant experience at this coffee shop! I love trying new local places when traveling and was greeted with the friendliest people, they answered questions, gave recommendations and sparked up sweet small talk. I love the slow feel this place has and you can tell each drink is crafted with care. their salted brown sugar latte was the perfect sweetness with a nice salty touch that balanced their coffee out very well. the coffee is not too acidic which I prefer. also their pastries are very fresh and their morning bun was so flaky and delicious. there was limited seating but a nice quiet place to read a book or do some work. highly recommend!

    While driving through Olympia, I needed a shot of caffeine badly. Came across Olympia Coffee - cute little shop with easy parking. The folks working were super friendly and fast. I got an 8oz nonfat mocha and it was excellent. Subtle chocolate, really good espresso, it was perfect. I would definitely stop by again if I return to Olympia.

    It's my sister-in-law's local coffee shop, as it's the closest to her home. We stopped by one day for a caffeine fix. I got a flavored cold brew off their seasonal menu. I didn't love it -and thus I don't even remember its particular flavor. I just remember the flavor being very subtle and it having way more coffee flavor for me. Yes I understand that this is a coffee shop so most drinks should have coffee flavor. I guess I'm one of those people that likes frou frou very subtle tasting coffee drinks. It just wasn't for me. My hubby got a medium roast and he seemed to think it was good. I also picked up a couple of pastries - a blueberry mochi donut and a ham/cheese croissant. Both were solid. A little pricy for what we got but I'm happy to support local shops.

    Great small coffee shop with newer aesthetic vibes! I asked what the barista recommended and I got a pour over coffee with 2% milk. It came out super fast and was absolutely delightful. Will be back again soon!

    I loved spending time with my family here while looking out the window of the coffee bar watching the rain. The baristas are friendly, knowledgeable, and craft great drinks! We tried out their burritos and seasonal winter drink menu. Thanks for a great time, will be back and recommend!

    We loved this Olympia Coffee locations. The baristas were super friendly and fast. Wasn't too crazy on a Saturday morning and there was plenty of parking. My americano was great and their scallion pastry with cheese warmed up was delightful. Hot chocolate was our favorite and probably the best hot chocolate we've ever had. Not too sweet and easy to drink right after it was made. And my americano was solid as well.

    Tried their seasonal special Hawaiian latte, very tasty! The barista helping me was very sweet and helpful! I'd definitely recommend this coffee, especially at this location with the kind baristas!

    Cute little place. Can fill up quickly. They have some interesting drink choices. Baristas were not exactly helpful when I had a few questions. Their responses were not very informative, so customer service could be bumped up a notch. Some of the drinks even sound like cocktails using alcohol flavored syrups and bitters. Price is similar to Starbucks. Looks like you can use real dishes if you're consuming on premise versus disposable. Coffee wasn't bad, but wasn't great. Would possibly return if I were in the area.

We ordered the avocado toast, chickpea sandwich, and coffee, and everything was delicious. The food was fresh, satisfying, and paired perfectly with the excellent coffee, making it an ideal spot for breakfast or lunch. Service was quick and friendly, and our order arrived promptly. The atmosphere is the real standout. The café has a huge indoor space with multiple seating areas, each featuring its own unique décor and vibe, so there's something for everyone--whether you're catching up with friends, getting some work done, or simply enjoying a quiet coffee break. If you're in the area, The Owl's Nest is a café I'd highly recommend.

We somehow spaced it that the cafe served only plant based food and only realized it after we took couple of bites because the food had unpleasant aftertaste. The pros: 1. Appreciate the support for LGBTQ 2. Appreciate the idea of "plant based" food 3. Nice atmosphere The cons: 1. The 12 oz cup of tea and the 16 oz cup of latte were served in the 12 oz mugs. We paid for a 16 oz latte. 2. Early Grey was of poor quality. Not much flavor. 3. The scones tasted ok, but not like true traditional scones. I presume it is because they are plant based. 4. Shortly after eating a sundried tomato scone I started feeling nauseated and developed a headache which lasted for several hours after. I do not have food allergies, I do though react poorly to heavily processed food. Knowing my body very well this makes me wonder about the quality of ingredients used. Plant based food is a very noble idea and is better for health and environment when in its natural form (olive oil, veggies, whole grains, etc.), but unfortunately some products are often very heavily processed (plant based butter, cheese, etc.). I have no idea what those scones were made of. I will not eat other scones after this experience. 5. I took a bite of hubby's panini. It had an unpleasant aftertaste. 6. We paid for 3 scones. The cashier gave us only two. I thought that the third one would be brought out shortly with the rest of the order so I let the cashier to attend to the line behind us. When the 3rd scone wasn't brought out I approached the counter to ask about it. Another person that was standing there asked me if I paid for it.......Seeing so much suspicion on their face I told the person that I would like to wait for the cashier to see if she would remember me placing an order. To which that person responded - I believe you......This was not a pleasant experience and this is not sound customer service if you ask me. Instead of taking responsibility and checking their system, they made me feel like I was trying to get free food. A professional business should always prioritize making the customer feel heard and valued, rather than putting them on the defensive. The OK: Coffee was just ok. I personally wouldn't come back for it. Overall this is not my cup of tea. I wouldn't come back.

The sausage set this dish off and topped with two eggs made every tastebud swoon with delight.

And if the French bread is on the specials, get one piece to share with your dining companion. If you aren't fighting over the crumbs and syrup, you just aren't doing it right.

    Cool cafe with pretty mid food…read more The ambiance inside is really relaxing; plenty of comfortable seating with plenty of plants around to make a warm and inviting space. The cafe is attached to a store, but that doesn't really affect the cafe all that much. The tablecloths used have a tendency to slide around very easily. We got the tempe blt panini and tempeh Ruben panini with their fries. The fries and ketchup were the best tasting item. You can add extras to the sandwiches, but that gets pretty pricey pretty fast. I added on avocado for $2, which was left off my sandwich so be sure to check that your food is correct. They did give me a small cup of avocado when I went up to the front, but I unfortunately did not notice it was missing until I had already eaten half of my sandwich. The food itself was a bit greasy. Not too overwhelming, but enough that it affected the meal. The sandwiches are pretty small, but filling enough for a lunch sized portion. Beyond food, everything else is self service (water, napkins, utensils). Not bad unless you have limited mobility, then it will be difficult to maneuver around the tables to the small cramped corner that everything else is located. When a gentleman asked the staff if they would bring him a fork (needed assistance walking), the staff only pointed again where the utensils were located before walking away.
