It was still a yummy snack, but I'd probably go for a different baked item if I return. They have a pretty big variety of food items and baked goods. I also appreciate that they had a good variety of non-coffee drinks, I just wish they had iced earl grey tea! The vibes in here were very pleasant. Nice and quiet and the music wasn't too loud, made it very easy to wear headphones and get some work done. The chairs were comfortable, maybe just a few more comfy couches would bring it to the next level. Employees were friendly enough, and service was fast. It's likely that I'll come back here, I just wish they were open later on weekdays. It's rare I get off work in time to stop by.

Banana bread should not be crunchy due to drying Biggest issue is the staff They seem like they couldn't care less if one buys from them or not and sometimes they act put out to even make a coffee. I've had a barista there actually frown at me as she hands me the coffee and even after I sat thank you she just turns away and says nada Same for the person that takes money. No thank you at all just take money and walks away. This has happened four out of five visits over a couple weeks Store is nice but was better when it was dancing goats. Now it is don't care fern sadly

I'd like to return to try their flights or more unique options. This location is very casual and fairly comfortable. It was pretty empty when I visited so there were plenty of seats. WiFi was fast and great for getting some work done. Employees were super friendly. I'll definitely stop by again if I'm in the area. I wish they were open later in the evening though. On the weekend I visited they closed around 4pm which feels pretty early. That's just personal taste though.

They always have freshly roasted coffee beans for sale of many varieties for sale and I haven't had a bad one yet. I cant help buying a bag or two on the way out. Their daily selection of pour over coffee is always delicious and they have got their technique dialed in! They have a nice mix of seating arrangements that suits many purposes from casual coffee meetings to creating art or a serious out of office work session!

My wife and I have been drinking coffee from Olympic Crest for years, and it has easily become our…read morefavorite local spot. In fact, it's the only coffee she'll buy for our espresso machine at home, which says a lot. Every time we stop in, the staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming. You can tell they care about the people who come through the door, not just the coffee they're serving. The shop itself is always clean, comfortable, and has a really nice atmosphere, which makes it a great place to grab a drink and relax for a few minutes. The quality of their coffee is consistently excellent. Whether we're grabbing a drink to go or picking up grounds for home, it never disappoints. If you're someone who likes supporting local coffee shops and appreciates great coffee made by great people, I definitely recommend giving Olympic Crest a try. We've been happy customers for years and will keep coming back.

My friend got the regular milk tea with boba, which was also good. Boba was so smooth and sweet...definitely one of the best from any other Washington state boba shop. They just put a new Photo Booth in the store, which is $9 for like 2 strips, I think? Did not try it, but super duper neat to see that is also available with board games to play if you plan to spend more time here. Service quick and clean over here. Staff putting down, for sure

We ordered the avocado toast, chickpea sandwich, and coffee, and everything was delicious. The food was fresh, satisfying, and paired perfectly with the excellent coffee, making it an ideal spot for breakfast or lunch. Service was quick and friendly, and our order arrived promptly. The atmosphere is the real standout. The café has a huge indoor space with multiple seating areas, each featuring its own unique décor and vibe, so there's something for everyone--whether you're catching up with friends, getting some work done, or simply enjoying a quiet coffee break. If you're in the area, The Owl's Nest is a café I'd highly recommend.

Stopped here for a breakfast. Ordered: 12 oz of Earl Grey,…read more16 oz of Latte, Lavender Scone, Sundried Tomato Scone, Maple Pecan Scone, Panini Sandwich. Total $61 including a tip. We somehow spaced it that the cafe served only plant based food and only realized it after we took couple of bites because the food had unpleasant aftertaste. The pros: 1. Appreciate the support for LGBTQ 2. Appreciate the idea of "plant based" food 3. Nice atmosphere The cons: 1. The 12 oz cup of tea and the 16 oz cup of latte were served in the 12 oz mugs. We paid for a 16 oz latte. 2. Early Grey was of poor quality. Not much flavor. 3. The scones tasted ok, but not like true traditional scones. I presume it is because they are plant based. 4. Shortly after eating a sundried tomato scone I started feeling nauseated and developed a headache which lasted for several hours after. I do not have food allergies, I do though react poorly to heavily processed food. Knowing my body very well this makes me wonder about the quality of ingredients used. Plant based food is a very noble idea and is better for health and environment when in its natural form (olive oil, veggies, whole grains, etc.), but unfortunately some products are often very heavily processed (plant based butter, cheese, etc.). I have no idea what those scones were made of. I will not eat other scones after this experience. 5. I took a bite of hubby's panini. It had an unpleasant aftertaste. 6. We paid for 3 scones. The cashier gave us only two. I thought that the third one would be brought out shortly with the rest of the order so I let the cashier to attend to the line behind us. When the 3rd scone wasn't brought out I approached the counter to ask about it. Another person that was standing there asked me if I paid for it.......Seeing so much suspicion on their face I told the person that I would like to wait for the cashier to see if she would remember me placing an order. To which that person responded - I believe you......This was not a pleasant experience and this is not sound customer service if you ask me. Instead of taking responsibility and checking their system, they made me feel like I was trying to get free food. A professional business should always prioritize making the customer feel heard and valued, rather than putting them on the defensive. The OK: Coffee was just ok. I personally wouldn't come back for it. Overall this is not my cup of tea. I wouldn't come back.
