If you love coffee and artisanal sandwiches then this is your cafe! We decided to go for a drive down to Mukilteo since the weather was beautiful. I really needed some fresh ocean air with a nice view. On our way down to the beach, we saw the sign for the cafe and since we were both deprived of coffee, we stopped to give it a try! Parking was very easy to find and the cafe is very popular as it was very crowded. The outdoor space had many places to sit along with umbrellas for shade. I ordered an iced vanilla latte and a rosemary and chive bagel with cream cheese. My bf tried their iced vanilla toddy and breakfast croissant. We found a lovely table outside and the service was amazing as they brought your order to your table! The coffee was really really good and the food was superb! We enjoyed our meals with a lovely view of the water and cool breeze. Really love this little cafe and will definitely be coming back again! read more

Rolling through Seattle and staying in Everett. On the hunt for some morning caffeine and this place popped up. It's a family run business, so cute, "Mom" is a sweet grandma who is busy keeping all the tables clean and sanitized, and is very serious about her job. There is a little chaos behind the counter as there's numerous people popping in and out taking orders and handing out deliveries. There was some inside seating available as well as gorgeous outdoor seating areas. The view is lovely. This was a four to five star but I went with five because family run businesses are so hard to do and they're obviously making it work - even through COVID. read more

Love the view there and outdoor seating and indoor seating in their nice vintage building. Only gripes are too much mayonnaise in their deli sandwiches and need some training on how to use the espresso machine. Food is super basic. Asked for a latte... was not a latte. Just a lot of frothy steamed milk and slight hint of coffee. Should have the roaster, Whidbey Coffee come out for training and maybe tune up the espresso machine. The second try at a latte was only slightly better. Maybe a field trip for owner and staff to Narrative Coffee, or Southfork or Red Twig, or Walnut? Also, your menu isn't great for food either. Sample the food at the aforementioned coffee shops. Southfork or Macrina can supply good food menu offerings. You can do much better and have been better in the past. I'm still loyal because this is a great location and nice staff and owner. read more

We have visited Red Cup Cafe many times over the years & it has always been excellent. They serve Whidbey coffee, which is the best. Their sandwiches and other food goodies are delicious. If they are busy, the wait can be a bit long, but everything is made to order & worth the wait. Be patient, sit outside & enjoy the view. Great location & great staff! There's some nice shops next door to visit as well. read more

Just your usual cafe really but what makes a difference to me is how positive the staff are! Everyone was very upbeat and smiling and you just feel it which makes any establishment much better. I will be back to try their sandwiches next time, their coffee is good! read more

Delicious food, great service and relaxing ambiance. My cappuccino was made to perfection and the chocolate croissant wasn't too Chocolatey which I enjoyed! read more

My three little kids and I came through this morning after we got off the ferry. We'd had a long weekend on Whidbey visiting a friend and had a long drive ahead of us. This place checked all the boxes for me. My vanilla latte was delicious and quite foamy, just the way I like it. Kids were quite happy with their muffin, cinnamon roll, and scone. Prices were pleasantly reasonable! Atmosphere was great. We sat at the communal table and others who were clearly regulars were friendly. The young man who was our cashier was refreshingly friendly and helpful. I could tell the people working there were happy to be there. Thank you for starting our morning off right :) read more

Breakfast bagel and caramel macchiato were excellent if ever in the area I'll be a returning customer.

I have an array of food allergies and I am not always able to eat food in all restaurants so when my friends want to go somewhere I just bring food that I am able to eat when I have no options at the place they want to eat. Everyone needs to win in the end so that's why they don't work around me I work around them. I came in here with my food because I am unable to eat the food they sell here and I was told "I don't want to be a b!tch, but you can't bring outside food, it is a health code violation" in no world is it a health code violation unless she talking about the food she she touches with her bare hands. Won't be coming back here, I apologize red cup to having food allergies. read more

Coffee, tea, soft drinks, sandwiches, cookies and more. Just up the hill from the beach in Old Town Mukilteo. There is inside and outside seating with a view of the bay. Watch ferries cross between Mukilteo and Clinton on Whidbey Island. Enjoy casual dining with friends near the ice cream and candy store. A great place for a low price snack in the midst of beautiful Northwest surroundings. Easy walk to or from the ferry landing. read more

Coffee and tea tasted good. They offer my favorite tea here: genmaicha which is toasted rice tea. Also I have been looking for a cafe that sells lemon bars! This place has the best ones and did I mention their seats have amazing views? I visited twice during winter and spring so did not sit outside but they do offer outdoor seating. Baristas are friendly. This place gets crowded so good luck finding a seat! read more

Red Cup Cafe - Lemon bar and genmaicha tea. Very yummy! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Mukilteo, Washington

The coffee is amazing, large menu of options. Best oat milk latte I've ever had!! The workers are so friendly and bubbly, the place is filled with energy (probably bc they keep drinking the coffee, I can't imagine being around that delicious java all day and not chugging it). The outdoor area is so gorgeous, it's like a secret garden. Parking is very close, everyone is nice, coffee is great, why aren't you there already?!?! read more

We came here on a Saturday afternoon around 4pm and it was pretty crowded. It was a nice day out and the outdoor area has a great view of the water and ferries going back and forth as this place sits atop the hill above the waterfront. Street parking is hard to get into (one way drive) and there aren't a ton of spots. We stood in line to order and when it was our turn, we found out they had run out of many of the items on the menu, including those in the glass case. The section of pastries was lacking and we had to settle for some of the allergy friendly cookies that were made offsite and brought in. the staff was friendly and we got to enjoy the outside, but I wish they had their full menu available. read more

Way to lose regulars -- we showed up a week ago to buy coffee beans: sold out. We asked them to set aside beans the next they came in: "Sure...no problem they said" We showed up today and were lucky they had what we were looking for as they made no effort to set aside our order. Nada... When we arrived, they looked confused, quickly scrambled, then set us on our way with our unmarked coffee in brown bags so ghetto I had to laugh. Those bags were a gift to an out of state friend, who just loved her experience at Red Cup, and wanted their coffee. The amount of side eye we got when they had to put the order together, combined with the fact we tipped heavily, is enough. Adios Rioja read more

A cute coffee shop by the water! I love the cozy interior and lovely views you get. You can choose to sit indoors or outdoors under lovely umbrella covered tables. Their staff are friendly and joyful! I loved the variety of foods you can get; from sandwiches to wraps to salads! They also have pastries as well :) I just got a simple asiago bagel that was perfectly toasted and it came with WHIPPED cream cheese (yuuuuum!). I also got a soy milk latte - for those who do not like acidic coffee, have no worries because the blend they use is more on the nutty and chocolately side! Perfect place to enjoy a quick bite, get some work done (free wifi), read a book, or even catch up with some friends! read more

Red Cup Cafe - Soy latte and an Asiago bagel with whipped cream cheese! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Mukilteo, Washington

the location wasn't crowded enough to justify the wait and didn't have the look of being understaffed. In the seats Outside there was a loud meeting about confidential information. every drink coming out had an employee chasing down a customer and the inefficient practice was a big part of why it ran so slow. In the end I ran out of time and had to leave. read more

5-Star for being the rare coffee shop with a view. Good seating inside and outside. Good access to power. 29/1 megabits down/up WiFi. Service was friendly and prompt. That's all great, but... The coffee is seriously mediocre. I'd say my 12oz latte is comparable to Starbucks - drinkable, but you can get it on any corner. My latte had way too much foam. 3 stars for coffee. For the digital nomad, note they do request you limit your stay to 2 hours, though I did see two people with laptops out working away. read more

I was not a fan of this place at all. We originally went to the area for some chocolate but the place was closed so we went around the corner for a drink. Upon entering I got this weird smell in my nose I couldn't pin point it. I ordered an almond milk peppermint hot chocolate my daughter got a strawberry Italian soda. While she liked hers and said the whip cream was really good I couldn't take more than 2 drinks of mine it was just way too sweet. But what got me was the smell I don't know if it was where I was standing but it smelt like an old cup with an espresso that had been in it for 6 months. I also was not impressed with the $8 it cost to have a 12oz and a 16oz drink. The service was sub par. I'm big on good service and the guy was just short and not friendly at all and we were the only ones in line :(. I wish I could give this a good review because I love local businesses but I can't :( read more

This review is just for their coffee and treats. Cute little coffee house to visit if you're coming off the Mukilteo Ferry and craving something sweet. The coffee is good because they serve Whidbey Coffee. The courtyard is beautiful to hang out on warm sunny days. I've always had good luck with the service. The wait staff has always been kind, so no complaints. A small space, so if you want to get a table during busy hours, get there early. Also, there's a huge table in the middle of the room which makes for a very noisy restaurant if there is a group gathering. read more

My dad absolutely loves this place so we go here every few months. Staff are always really nice, and food is consistently good. It's especially nice to use their outdoor space during dry days - the staff will even bring your food out to you. read more

Cafe is in a great location, has cute decor (the man falling through the ceiling is pretty amazing and very creative) and the service was friendly. We ordered lunch for our family as we had wandered into town to checkout the lighthouse and park. The sandwiches were a bit underwhelming - offered in half and full I expected a full sandwich at nearly $13 to have more than two thin slices of tomato on the BLT. read more

Such a cute little place with a great variety of offerings and very friendly staff. The warmed up cinnamon rolls are addicting.

My delicious cup of finely crafted coffee in this great place was such an unexpected treat. The baked items and breakfasts being served smelled delicious. (I'll indulge next time.) The small outdoor terrace is charming. They have their terraced seating overlooking the Mulkiteo Ferry, Sound and beautiful islands beyond. I stumbled upon the Red Cup Cafe only because I was in Mulkiteo for a haircut at Taya's Salon which I also highly, highly recommend! I had a few minutes before my hair appointment and so planned to quickly pop in but then just had to take an outside seat for a few to enjoy the stunning view. Wow! BTW the service was great and waitstaff were friendly and cheerful. It was 8:45 am on a Sunday and the restaurant was pretty full , but no wait, with some regulars which is a good sign. I'll be back as soon as I can and maybe become a regular myself if I'm lucky! read more

Was so excited to try this little coffee place. Coffee was not artisan coffee in any way, my latte was more than a regular coffee with milk in a paper cup. The family ordered sandwiched, which was pretty mediocre for the high price. The teens in the kitchen messed up both my kids orders and when we complained they were a little snappy. read more

Red Cup is a neat Cafe with friendly staff. If you want a good cup of coffee or a sandwich and a place to relax, sit, and not feel rushed, this is the spot. Sit and visit with friends, work on you're laptop, or order lunch to go. read more

I stopped in for coffee. The coffee is amazing. They serve food but I only had coffee. The staff is friendly. This place is adorable, relaxed, and welcoming. I sat outside to enjoy the trees, flowers, and the sound. Plenty of seating outside in a garden atmosphere. Directly off the Mukilteo Speedway. Limited parking for small cars next to the building, but plenty of street parking between 4th and 5th where the city has 4-hour parking places. read more

Cute little cafe house. My husband and and I went in to order gluten free breakfast sandwiches. I saw the menu and there was a "gluten free egg stack". I asked, does that come with gluten free or is it bread less? She said they could do either. I said ok, I'll do it with the bread, no cheese. Make that 2 of them. Then I made it a little more complicated and asked that one of the sandwiches actually has only 1 egg instead of 2. Between the face masks and plexiglass there was some miscommunication because we ended up with THREE breakfast sandwiches, all had cheese and none of them had avocado. Lol I can't have cheese so I needed them to remake it. Which they did but then forgot the avocado, again on 2 of them. Haha wtf. They were delicious though and nice about it. Just make sure they repeat back your order. read more

I come here every time I visit. Just so relaxing and great coffee. Definitely stop here when nearby.

This is honestly becoming a new home and a place to meet new people in the Mukilteo area for me. I'm not from here (from San Antonio for Boeing) and the people working here are super friendly especially Megan and Lindsey. I get a mocha with raspberry whip cream that is solid, and consistent. For me local spots need that consistency, yeah it's not in a pretty cup or anything and food is typical served in a plastic red basket but it's still solid food. Plus it's next door to a chocolate shop that has great sweets and ice cream (from Seattle). I would rate this place a 4 usually but friendliness and eccentric decor/seating pushes it to a 5. read more

It's a sunny Saturday morning... I'm overlooking the puget sound in the corner table in one of my favorite cafes. Red Cup is an eclectic haven from the bustle of life. The ferry traffic flies past me as I have my first bite of the Taos. Staff recommended and definitely as must try! Generous helping of turkey with cream cheese and a green chili sauce on perfectly toasted bread - this is a taste sensation! Like... Wow! Enough zing for personality but sweet enough that I want to enjoy the drops left in the paper. I really enjoy Whidbey coffee and this morning perhaps it's the sunshine or the butter rum flavoring, but it is a bliss moment. The Red Cup never disappoints - perhaps a visit to the chocolate shop afterwards is in order! read more

Came for a sandwich and coffee and left with an empty wallet, still hungry, and regretful to have gone out to eat. The very lightly topped sandwich was literally cheap sliced bread that you get for 3$ a loaf at the store, very very basic ingredients and totally unseasoned and boring. The atmosphere was good, the service was good, but not good enough, would never come back. read more

Stayed in Mukilteo while visiting my wife's sister. The staff at Red Cup were fantastic. They have gluten free options and are wonderfully accommodating. We got espresso and chai from them as well that we're great. We loved everything about the place, the character, the location near the ferry, the outside patio with wood carved statues. Very fun. read more

Absolutely loved this place. Brought my husband to mukilteo for a day at the beach and some exploring and found this gem. It's adorably decorated and has a great cozy vibe. The staff were incredibly friendly and chipper (which is a great indicator of how they like their job) and the service was outstanding. We ordered the camano sandwich which is tuna (it was so good with lots of onions) and we were asked if we were splitting it. So they brought it to our quaint outdoor table cut in half in separate baskets with our own bags of chips. So sweet! Oh, and we got an iced breve latte with almond and it was delicious. We can't wait to go back. They are popular so know it may be crowded. We went on a Wednesday around 12 and it was 2/3 full. read more
