    Cortado and hot chocolate.
    Natalie G.

    Friendly staff, who made an excessive amount of hot chocolate for our larger group of kids in a timely manner! I love the taste of their espresso, I got a cortado which was smooth and creamy. I was excited to find they had a location in West Seattle, I usually go to the one closer to me. The place had a good sized seating area, and a huge collection of plants which added to the ambiance. Parking is a bit hard in this area a lot of the street parking was full.

    My cousin and I were in the area after a neighborhood walk, and before we headed into the heart of Seattle for museum time. There is plenty of seating and tables to comfortably sip, and work on your laptop if needed. The large windows, lots of real plants, and laidback lounge areas and seating made the café really welcoming and inviting. My cousin ordered a cappuccino and I ordered a matcha latte with oatmilk and a pump of sugar free vanilla. If you order "for here" you get your drink in an actual tea/coffee cup. There is something about drinking from a real up in a coffee shop that somehow slows your day down. My matcha was perfect, my barista made it exactly to order how I asked. Not too sweet! There are restrooms available for guests only, and you can sip and lounge while you chat. It's a cool and comfortable café that isn't too noisy or loud, and is the perfect balance of calm and invigorating. Great coffee and tea!

    Great quality coffee and the breakfast burrito was delicious! The staff are very friendly and dog friendly. Love stopping by on my morning dog walks.

    This isn't close to where I live but it's. near my doctor's office so I always come by when I'm in the neighborhood. It's a quiet, comfortable space with tall windows and lots of beautifully cared-for plants. Staff is always friendly and welcoming. The coffee is great. Even the customers all seem cool. :-) They are also queer-friendly --it's a rare place in Seattle that's not, but in this day and age it's nice to see it reiterated.

    It is a hidden gem in west Seattle. The coffee is always consistent and great. It's a very welcoming and peaceful place with plants around, a puppy cookies jar, and a basket with books. The food is really... very yummy and with good values! A $6 yummy breakfast sandwich?! Their burritos are very flavorful too.

    Cute place, love the vibe and plants, bright space. Coffee was good, iced latte had good coffee flavor, other places it's watered down and more milk flavor. Breakfast sandwich was good, loved the fresh greens and tomato. Only thing I'd wish for was cheese on it. Nice slice of cheddar it would be near perfect. Staff was nice. Also the credit card reader worked fine. It's a standard Square terminal and tip amounts were typical. It's silly to leave a one star review for a place where the problem was user error. You can easily leave no tip if you want, they don't even hover over you while finishing the transaction, they're too busy making your order.

    Nice to know they have in-house made options for syrups and sugar free ones also. Quick service. Wish there were more food options.

    Moonshot Coffee - Very nice barista & crafted a spot on mocha (5/31/25)

    This might be the best coffee shop I've ever been to…read more Or maybe just one of the kindest human baristas. Coffee is great! We will be back. But what impressed me more than anything was an act of kindness from the barista. An unhoused person waited in line behind us. I didn't notice until we were finished ordering... Then this person proceeded to wait until they were done making our drinks. They asked for a hot drink please. The barista treated them just like any other costumer. Made the drink. Gave it to him and then proceeded to ask him if he'd like a day old pastry? He said yes! The barista grabbed the pastry and he was on his way. I was a little shook. Being from LA I don't see the unhoused community treated this way. Showing them basic decency offering them something warm to drink and a pastry. This town runs a little differently and it warmed my sometimes jaded heart. I stayed and chatted with the barista and thanked them for their humanity. They explained they have a community card where the community shared the expense. I'm floored. I hope this spreads and I'm gonna do my best to do the same. Another person just came in. Same treatment. I'll be back. Thank you to this business for leading by example.

    With weather often cloudy throughout the year, there's little more comforting than a miel (espresso…read morewith honey and often cinnamon). And Moonshot Coffee makes a noteworthy one. Staying at a near apartment while in town from Washington, D.C., Moonshot was a worthy coffee stop. It's along a strip of many colorful murals and popular restaurants and bars. The staff are friendly and the entire space inclusive. There are two tables that seat two each with outlets nearby. (There's strong wi-fi.) The window bar table sits four on high stools. If you need a warm place, pop into Moonshot Coffee.

    Walked into the store and we're greeted to the sound of Phil Collins. At the front is a large…read morepastry counter filled with donuts, biscuits, muffins, cookies, and a crazy assortment of marshmallow treats including versions with Fruity Pebbles and Ruffles Potato Chips. In the back there is a huge mural of Dolly Parton, Anthony Bourdain, and a tiny Bob Ross in the style of American Gothic. The walls are covered with trinkets from the 80s and 90s like Homies and California Raisin figurines and KISS Pez dispensers. The food: Smashwich - A really good breakfast sandwich. The hash browns give it some added crunch that is surprising but welcome. Chicken in a Biscuit - The biscuit and chicken taste great. It's a bit hard to eat because of how large of a bite it is and how firm the components are. Vanilla Cream Shokupan Doughnut - The donut portion is tasty and there is a ton of whipped cream on this. The cream is quite heavy though and leaves a fatty mouthfeel. Wish this was a lighter cream that's fresh filled into the pastry, but that's another prep step before serving. Overall, really fun place in terms of the decor, music and interesting twists on food. Oodles of nostalgia is always a positive in my book.

I got here at 11 and there was a line if 10 people with every table full. The line doe move quick, but be prepared to eat outside (or take it to go) during peak times. I got the smashwich and fruity pebbles rice krispy. We also got the matcha shokupan donut to share. Everything was excellent. The house made sausage patty on the smashwich complemented the whole sandwich well; it was crispy, fatty with amazing flavor. Pro tip if you have the passport app you can save 20% off! Only downside - I think their space is somewhat awkward for seating and overall flow. However they are doing what they can with what they have so it's not a knock on them per se, just putting it out there that the flow is a little off especially when busy.
