Recently moved to Bellevue from Seattle and of course was desperate to find a new brunch spot with…read moreallergen-friendly options, and WOW. Bellden Cafe has it all, we've already gone several times I'm obsessed with the ube mochi waffle, it is soooo delicious (not too sweet, incredible texture and flavor). Their matcha is also lovely, I got matcha with rose syrup both times I went (so immaculate). I've turned into a bit of a matcha snob, so always looking for some good options and they hit the spot. The service is incredible, literally the people working there are the nicest people everrrr. Even on a super busy weekend morning, they were so accommodating, so friendly and even remembered us from just one visit! Really fantastic team, they really make the whole experience even MORE lovely. And the interior is jussssst so gorg!!! The decor is immaculate, there's lots of space (even when it was crowded), would be a perfect place to work from during the week, even their outdoor tables were very clean and cutie. Absolutely love, this has become a new staple of ours since moving to the east side! brunch girlies rise!!!

This spot has received numerous awards and recognition over the years, so I was glad to finally…read morecheck it out with a friend on a recent Sunday morning. When we walked in, most of the indoor tables were taken, but we got lucky and snagged one right as a couple was leaving. They have a pretty extensive drink menu of coffees, teas and smoothies alongside a food selection of açaí and yogurt bowls, breakfast sandwiches, waffles, toasts and salads. Prices do seem rather steep for food (particularly for the waffles), however, this business has a great philanthropic mindset that helps explain the price points. Whenever someone orders a specialty drink, they donate some of the proceeds to a charity. + LATTE w/ MISO MAPLE syrup ($5 for 12 oz. + $1 for syrup): The coffee itself was so good - robust, with a perfect balance between the espresso and milk. I was so excited to try this unique syrup flavor, but sadly, I didn't taste it at all. No umami from the miso and not even a hint of maple. I'm not sure if this syrup is just extremely subtle, or if it was simply forgotten. I really hope it's not the latter, since I paid extra for it. + MATCHA CHIA PUDDING ($13): The bowl may look small, but it was deep and the portion turned out to be filling. A Greek yogurt base was beautifully layered with matcha chia pudding, a strawberry-rhubarb compote, granola and rose. I loved the compote which had the perfect sweetness of ripe strawberries and a little tang from the rhubarb. The matcha pudding was on the milder side, but smooth in consistency, contrasting nicely with the crunchy granola. My friend ordered the Açaí Bowl and really enjoyed it. The serving looked reasonable for the price as well. Overall, the two of us had a wonderful time here catching up over a healthy brunch! Tip: They have two small rooms available to reserve for parties of 4-6 if you're looking to secure seating for a group.

Got a PB Health Nut (peanut butter, banana, dates, cashewmilk) and customized it with added blueberries and strawberries. Smoothie was freshly made and tasty. Ordering on the app makes it easy to customize the smoothie. The staff were friendly and were able to serve my smoothie in my reusable glass tumbler. Thanks for supporting sustainability and reusable cups! Store is clean and has a few tables and chairs where you can enjoy your smoothie. There's also free wifi and lots of windows, for some sun and natural lighting.

The Toxin Flush is much better than most green drinks (it actually tastes good lol) and we loved the Go Bananas. I'd highly recommend adding coconut whipped cream to them. The place is super clean, quiet, and located right next to the Downtown Park! Service was excellent as well, and I especially love the convenience of being able to pre-order online.

At first, I wanted the egg toast with avocado, but they only serve it with soft eggs, so I went with the avocado toast instead and really enjoyed it. I also had a black Americano, which was great.

So happy to eat a great smoothie bowl while also supporting a Palestinian-owned business…read more I've seen so many videos on Berry Much, and I finally got a chance to try it! I got the Blue Majik to share with my boyfriend and our friend got the Hagrid's Dragon. The quality was phenomenal and they don't skimp out on the smoothie portion in comparison to the toppings. Overall it was evenly distributed and made for delicious bowl! This is one of the greater smoothie bowls I've had and it was made quickly. The worker was quick and efficient in making it. Although, the inside is quite small it is quite good for a to-go if you're around the area taking a walk.

Super generous portion!…read more The bowl overall was okay! The açaí didn't really have any flavor to it, and the foods were all a bit sour. It was a good healthy breakfast option, but I've had better açaí bowls. + If you are allergic to any fruits, they don't do replacements, nor will they be willing to exclude the fruit you're allergic to from your bowl. The staff helping us recommended we just choose another bowl without that specific fruit. It was kinda hard because most of the bowls had the same fruits in them so that limited our choice to one-- the bowl we ended up getting.

As a Brazilian, I can confirm that it is REALLY hard to find authentic Açaí. Forget what they offer…read moreat your go-to smoothie shop and whatever you tried in Hawaii. Chances are, you haven't tried legit açai yet (unless you've gone to Brazil). Tropical Berry is one of the rare places in WA that sells real açai. You know is a legit spot if they have condensed milk and milk powder (which is what most people add on in Brazil). I recommend this place to everyone I know, especially if they're not from Brazil. Their açai is delicious, their "coxinha" is one of the best ones I've ever had (please try it with the green mayo). It's always worth the drive for me to come here! Tropical berry is truly a hidden gem!

We were on a bike ride from Seattle and looking for somewhere to stop on our ride, somewhere with…read moresmoothies or fruity somethings. And a search on Yelp brought us here! What a find! I probably have biked past this place a hundred times, but had no idea it was there. My girlfriend suggested we get açai bowls, their specialty. Apparently she and her daughter had lived on açai bowls for years. I'd never had had one, but was willing to try something new. OMG! They were so good and refreshing! We both got different toppings--we went a little crazy with them in fact, the fruit and stuff would barely fit in the bowl!--and we downed both our small bowls. I got banana, strawberry, blueberry, pineapple and peanut butter. The latter sounded weird, but it tasted awesome, especially when mixed with the açai. My girlfriend got the same, but got granola instead of pineapple. I also ordered a pressed sugar cane drink. Yup, made from real sugar canes. Sounds weird, and one would think would be extremely sweet. But no, not super sweet, and surprisingly refreshing. I remember gnawing on sugar canes when I was a kid, so the flavor was familiar. But a drink was a lot easier to consume!! I'll definitely get it again! The place is tiny. Only two tables. And, although it's across Bothell Way from the bike trail, you really have to cross at one of the lights, before or after. A little hassle, but so worth it!!

Maybe it was because it's a to-go order but the bowl was super runny like goop-ey. I was expecting much firmer but it just looked like the texture of soupy melted ice cream. The toppings were fresh though and I liked the coconut bits and granola, however it was super sweet. I wasn't expecting such a sweet taste and I'd prefer it to be more healthy. I asked for the agave drizzle but they didn't even put it on which I'm thankful for because I think it would've been like 10x sweeter if I had agave in addition. Overall, I probably wouldn't order it again unless there's another BOGO and I would go in person to order on the spot rather than do a pick up order since it's basically just melting there on the counter.

To start, $20 for a bowl after tax is not bang for your buck. Went 30 min before closing so we got…read moreours in a takeout container rather than the reusable coconut bowls, I'm not sure if it's true but the takeout container did look considerably larger than the dine in bowls and easier to eat out of because your toppings aren't at risk of toppling out if your bowl. Got the Cocoa Paradise bowl, and it was one of the best acai bowls I've had in the greater Seattle area (I feel like we don't have many great options here) The standout for me was the granola, almond butter, and acai. I think they have delicious base with those core components and the fruit was plentiful. The space is small so minimal indoor seating, but the outdoor patio seating is cute for the summer.

Service was quick enough, and since we got the bowls to go, we didn't really pay much attention to the atmosphere. Overall pretty happy with the bowls we've got.
