    Turkey Bacon Press Panini, Iced mocha
    Sabrina N.

    I have been searching for a good panini place for almost 2 years now. This is the one. I got the Turkey bacon pressed panini on focaccia and an iced mocha. BOTH were delicious. Service was fast and I appreciate the cute seating outside! Definitely stop by if you're in the area, or if you just want a good panini! :)

    I stumbled upon this place as I was trying to find somewhere different to eat but I am glad I ended up here. The food was good, the staff were friendly, and my order was ready quickly. There are a couple seats at the window counter and there are several tables outside. I had a breakfast sandwich on sourdough, but they had several options for bread.

    Simply Panini makes mouthwatering paninis and a pretty darn decent iced coffee if you ask me. I've been there once before years ago when I was in the area after someone recommended them to me but I mostly just get my food delivered from them through Uber eats since I don't really go into downtown Tacoma anymore. Normally I get the breakfast sandwiches which have always been great but switched it up recently and tried a couple of their lunch menu items. If you like your sandwiches with a little bit of a kick, I highly recommend the jalapeño grilled cheese ! The gyro press panini is also very good, the flavor you'd expect from a classic gyro sandwich but instead of a pita it's on your choice of their bread. I went with wheat for the gyro and sourdough for the grilled cheese. The coffee can be a little too strong for me at times but it's normally good. I like the iced mochas and lattes with non fat milk and coconut flavor added. They have a variety of different milks and flavors you can add to the coffee drinks if you wish to. Overall, it's a great place to check out for breakfast or lunch.

    Cali Chicken Panini

    Really enjoyed my first trip to this spot! It's in a convenient spot off commerce for a lot of the businesses there. The shop is pretty small with only six or so bar type seats available, there are outdoor tables but it's was a bit too cold for that today. I had the Cali Chicken Panini and was overall very satisfied. The best part was probably the bread, you get a choice between white, wheat, sourdough, or focaccia. I got the focaccia which was very soft inside and perfectly grilled on the outside. Veggies were fresh and loved that they used red onion! The only downside was that it was a bit messy with the liquid from the tomato as well as the sauce which was only okay. Still a good sandwich and they had plenty of other options that I'll be back to try. Prices were about average for the area, maybe slightly less at 11 for the Panini.

    i absolutely fucking love this place. HIGHLY recommended. it's always flavorful and at a very decent price!

    Berry Salad with Chicken

    Nice little Mom & Pop store in downtown Tacoma. Location was clean, service was fast, and Berry Salad was yummy. I thought it was a good serving size for the amount paid. Close to where I was staying. Would stop by again if ever in town.

They have a monthly rotating menu of four limited drinks for their drink flights. For the month of February the four drinks were: - Lots of Love Lotus -- pink lotus with rose and lavender syrup, topped with lavender cold foam. - Eternal Flame Latte -- espresso with sweet heat syrup and brown sugar cinnamon, finished with a honey and red sugar rim. - Sweetheart Sip Matcha -- iced matcha with cherry and almond syrup, topped with a maraschino cherry. - Perfect Pair Latte -- espresso with dark chocolate, white chocolate, and strawberry, topped with whipped cream and strawberry drizzle. The drinks were all great. In addition to the drink flight, we ordered a chocolate vegan muffin and a Danish to snack on. The space is wonderful. It is a fairly large space that could be used to study, work, or even socialize in. The service is also excellent. The staff are friendly and delivered our drink flight right to us!

My constant is the Cardigan Latte, and then I rotate through whatever seasonal drinks inevitably convince me to stray from my usual. The space is warm and inviting, the people are wonderful, and it works just as well for grabbing something quickly as it does for settling in and staying awhile. I've been here more times than I could possibly count, and the fact that I continue choosing it when Tacoma has no shortage of great coffee shops probably says everything. Get the Cardigan Latte.

I was lucky to grab a seat just as someone else was leaving, and while it is definitely a tight fit when packed, the space is laid out well with both indoor and outdoor seating options.

I ordered the Island Breeze from the summer menu, which was amazing, so much so that I even ordered another one to share with my friend! I somehow also managed to snag the very last chicken chipotle sandwich, and it did not disappoint at all, especially with the great portion size. The service was wonderful, and I really enjoyed my friendly interactions with the staff. Overall, it was a fantastic experience, and I will definitely be back to try out their fall menu!
