Brown Sugar nutmeg hemp milk latte
Normandean C.

In West Seattle, I would say this one of three of my favorite/go-to coffee shops in the area. It's really one of the first places where I enjoyed a flavored latte. Per this location, their brown sugar nutmeg latte is a staple to me. They do also feature a few seasonal drinks to be on the lookout for. The consistency of the drinks are never changing and the sweet ness in their in house made syrups yield just the right sweetness where it works in harmony to highlight the coffee flavor. Another perk they have is their rewards program where after earning 10 kittens (1 kitter per transaction of I think a minimum $2.50 transaction). You get $5.00 of your next purchase. It used to be any drink free but with increasing costs of goods, I could understand the switch. They also offer a minimalistic ambiance and knickknacks for sale. Last note* no wifi and outside food or drinks allowed to be consumed Anyways try them out.

Quaint little coffeeshop tucked away in a quiet street away from the busy roads. Never knew this place existed, but apparently they opened about 8 years ago. I originally came in because I needed a place to work on my laptop while my car was being worked on nearby. Unfortunately this place has limited seating and no wifi. Most of the lower reviews I see for Sound & Fog are because of this issue, but I personally don't think this should be the big reason for lowering the rating down. I still wanted to support this small business, so I ordered the butterfly pea drink after seeing so many photos of this mystical blue drink. It's essentially a milk tea with a floral taste-profile, and after the first sip I had already knew this was incredible. The drink itself was a pleasant experience and warmed me up during the cold day. I would come back just for this drink again, and would also be interested in trying out their other beverages.

One of my most frequented coffee shops in West Seattle! No wifi, so bring a friend or a book or a hotspot :) You order at the counter and make your way down to the register. They sell ceramics from Copenhagen and source coffee beans from all over. Beans are rotating. Check their IG! They also have a bunch of wine to choose from. Brown sugar nutmeg latte: this is usually my ole reliable because I know it's good. Not too sweet, good espresso, and some latte art

Small neighborhood coffee shop located in West Seattle. Parking is easy to find. The interior is pretty with plenty of seating (wasn't busy). They also sell a selection of wine. But no WiFi, wouldn't come here to study or work. Outdoor seating also available. We ordered the Sound & Fog Latte (Iced) and Iced Tiramisu Latte (Seasonal). The Sound & Fog reminded me of a mix of a florally earl gray tea and cereal milk. Interesting flavor, kept sipping on it. The Tiramisu Latte was great! Exactly what it sounds with coffee flavor too. I would recommend this one if you like Tiramisu. Doesn't stand out, but solid if you find a drink here you enjoy!

Good variety of pastries and super cute coffee shop. Plenty of seats indoor and out to enjoy a quiet area. Parking can be a challenge but not too bad. Merchandise and coffee mugs were super cute. Clean and simple. Service was excellent Love the self served water station. Would definitely come back and try the coffee next time.

Good selection of beans and equipment. Baristas are pleasant and friendly. Good selection of drinks, with house made specialties like the tiramisu latte. I got the nitro cold brew with the tiramisu cream top, cream was delicious, nitro was slightly sour. Overall, love this space and the ability to just sit and chill for a bit.

Brown Sugar and Nutmeg Latte and Sound and Fog Tea Latte
Diana C.

This is a really cute little spot! Very modern and clean and has a small but unique menu. I really liked my Sound & Fog Tea Latte and my partner had a seasonal Brown Sugar and Nutmeg Latte. The barista was friendly and helpful and did some nice latte art on top too. Their space is small, but comfy. They do seem to have a patio area that's dog friendly outside weather permitting but dogs are not allowed inside unless they're a service animal.

A very cute cafe with delicious drinks and croissants! They also have wine and beer which is unique! The barista is very friendly. Seems like the type of place with regulars that come in for a solid cup of joe. They don't have wifi here. Came here in the morning to grab a quick bite and some caffeine. I got the london fog and my husband got a latte with cardamom in it. He said the latte reminded him of holiday ham upon first sip but then afterwards he really enjoyed it hahaha.... We got this croissant pastry with an orange syrup on it and it was so GOOD! omg i could have eaten more than one. Overall, a cute little cafe spot to stop at if you're nearby!

I've been to sound & fog a few times since moving here and I think their espresso is great. This time I went I was very disappointed which the drinks I ordered. We ordered a 16oz latte and a 16oz matcha lemonade. The matcha lemonade was nice and refreshing, but the matcha was practically nonexistent. The latte was basically just milk. We watched the barista making the latte and I thought a 16oz latte normally comes with two shots of espresso, but the barista only added one. So our drinks were not good, but the beans we got were pretty good!

No WiFi at a coffee shop? I literally went here to study haha. Missed that part in the reviews. This place is decorated really well, there is a big empty lot Nextdoor, kinda wish they expanded and made a little patio out there, oh, and offer WiFi haha. They sell typical coffee shop merch plus bottled wine.

Really impressed by this place, even came back for a second coffee after enjoying the first one while wandering the local market. Parking sucks, but I won't hold it against them as it's worth the fight/walk. Great ambiance, great light, and nice folks working there

Kristine N.

I love this coffee shop. On my Seattle trip this coffee shop was by far my favorite because of my drink and the ambiance. I told the barista that I would like extra syrup in my latte and while he was making it, he showed me how much syrup he's putting in there and asked if it was enough :) the drink was amazing we almost came back the second day, but wanted to try other coffee shops in west Seattle There's ample lighting in there as well with cute chairs and tables outside

Sound & fog latte

Strawberry banana muffin topped with cinnamon sugar was delicious! And the vibe of this place is really cool. Doesn't have WiFi which I get from a business stand point but is unfortunate for an entrepreneur wanting to sit outside a coffee shop to enjoy some coffee and work. The sound & fog latte was pretty powdery which was a little disappointing but I've had other drinks here that were good. Super cool that they also have wine & beer which makes it a fun spot after work!

There was some renovation going on, so there weren't any seats available for dine-in. However, there was a bench inside where we sat to enjoy our coffee, which worked out since I love having coffee at cafes, especially in their cute mugs. The quality of the coffee was amazing easily one of the best I've had in Seattle. I also appreciated their efficient setup: the barista takes your order and makes it at the same time. You might have to wait in line a bit longer, but you get your coffee right away instead of waiting for your name to be called later. Just be prepared for a line, but it's totally worth it!

During our trip to Seattle, I'd say Current Coffee served the best coffee I've ever had…read more I'm so glad that I found this place. We picked up a couple of bags of beans from the shop, but all the credit goes to their amazing barista and owner. You can truly tell how passionate and skilled they are in their craft. We loved it so much that we visited twice, and both times the drinks were absolutely perfect (tried cappuccino and espresso with hot chocolate) The café has such a cozy, relaxing city vibe; I noticed many people upstairs reading, studying, and working. I'd love to come back someday and spend more time there, savoring their coffee to the fullest.

I recently had a delightful experience at Soprano's Antico and only wish I had discovered it…read moresooner. My husband and I were craving spaghetti and meatballs, so we decided to give this place a try. The restaurant is located across the street from the Admiral Theater. We found street parking, but there's also a lot in the alley behind the building. Once inside, you can scan a QR code for 90 minutes of free parking. We like to eat dinner really early and it wasn't busy when we were there. We sat at a large, comfortable table. We started with a full order of garlic bread. It was soft, garlicky, and delicious. We didn't realize the pasta dishes also come with two pieces of garlic bread, so next time we'll probably just order a salad as an appetizer instead. For our main course, we both ordered the classic pasta. You can choose your pasta and sauce. We went with spaghetti and marinara, plus meatballs for an extra $3. I really enjoyed my meal. Everything was hot, flavorful, and it was a generous portion. I finished mine, but my husband even had leftovers. Our server was friendly and attentive throughout the meal. I would definitely recommend Soprano's Antico and I'm already looking forward to my next visit.

Highly recommend. Oh, they have yummy pizza too!

BoxBar has been on our list of vegan places to try for forever and a day. We made it out that way…read morethis weekend and our experience lived up to everything we've heard about them!! The pasta was amazingly tender, cooked to perfection. There was a lot of flavor and depth in each bite, more of a deliciously earthy mac and cheese as opposed to maybe a velveety smooth creamy type. The Jalapeño poppers were amazing. I've always associated poppers with a crusted fried topping but these were bold, going in a different direction. The jalapeños were fresh and soft to the bite, easy to cut with the side of a fork, loaded with components such as cashew cheddar, crema, avocado sauce, sweet pickled jalapeños, pico and cabbage slaw - all coming together perfectly in each bite (i'm utilizing their menu description) For the main dish, Sandi ordered the "Smokey Barbecue" which came with a complimentary side of chips and I ordered the Portobello French Dip and upgraded my side to a Side Salad for an extra $4. Each dish, every bite was delicious, even something as simple as a side salad was elevated with their Ginger Tahini dresing. Dipping the Portobello Sandwich into the Dip was just .. magical. We also both opted for the same drink, South Park Mule. The drink was legit, in addition to tasting great, I actually had a buzz as well .. indicating to me they didn't skimp on the adult juice Their food is amazing across the board and there's so much more to go back and try! Definitely worth the trip!!

Loved the portobello french dip sandwich! Lots of shrooms, cooked perfectly and very well seasoned…read more My spouse said the barbecue sandwich made with tempeh was good but not great. My friend very much enjoyed the tofu bahn you. Although we all really enjoyed the nachos, they were not what I expected. I expected cashew cheese sauce that was cheesy tasting. It was very different from that but tasted great. The lentils and tomatos were very well seasoned. They are not spicy but are yummy. The kale salad was good but I have had a better vegan one in SF. The service was friendly but slow. On the plus side, there was zero pressure to rush. I look forward to going here again when I am next in town. I want to try the mac and cheese and one of their pretty cocktails.
