Crumpet
Mona A.

Can't say enough code things about this spot, stopped by a few times during our trip in 2023 and loved it, they were delicious crumpets. A little crammed inside but it's definitely great spot to stop by and grab a quick breakfast crumpet before doing your thing. I loved the Storyville coffee and pair it with the crumpets from this spot. We tried both the sweet and the savory

Yesterday The Crumpet Shop celebrated 50 years in business!  (1/13/26)

I've lived in WA State since Sept 1973 and walked past the OG Crumpet Shop at Pike Place Market a gazillion times. This business has been established since 1976. I've actually stopped in their Edmonds location first, lol. Nevertheless, it has been in existence for fifty years! For some reason on this chilly Monday (2/16/26), I decided to stop in since I noticed there was not a line and some onsite seating available. I ordered a fresh griddled crumpet that was buttered and topped with strawberry preserves. After a brief wait, I received my order. Halved and placed on a saucer. Straightforward, but really hit the spot. Flavorful where the butter had melted in the tiny holes or flutes, plus the added preserves was just right and not cloying. This was pillowy in comparison to an English muffin. The menu features quite a variety of sweet and savory, traditional and inventive crumpets, plus a nice selection of hot tea to accompany one's crumpet. Pleasant detour while visiting Pike Place Market!

Before moving to Seattle I vacationed here and fell in love. One place I checked pit was the crumpet shop. A shop dedicated to fresh off the griddle crumpets, yes! The simple crumpet with butter and honey is impeccable, but since then I've had the pesto and tomatoes crumpet and the lemon curd with ricotta. None have disappointed! One thing to not is even while they face 1st street they close down at 4pm, which is a bummer. A good way to end your time at Pike Place Mkt is to get a crumpet then meander over to Pike Place Chowder for an award winning cup or bowl. Their line is always so long but catching right before they close you never have a line. Remember a crumpet at closing and a seafood chowder for a bowl of take out.

This was our first time trying a crumpet, so we wanted to order a variety of different kinds. We decided on two sweet and two savory options. We were pleasantly surprised by the textures and flavors, and it was a great experience. The interior is cozy and small so make sure to find seating. Overall, we had a pleasant afternoon with the family here!

Have never had a crumpet before so I like the concept of this place a lot. I got the ricotta lemon curd one and it was good but overpowered the crumpet. The crumpet was warm too which I did really like. I think I should have got a simple one with butter so I could rlly taste the crumpet. It was very small and almost 9$. Definitely overpriced and not really worth it. I am glad I tried it once though.

This shop was high on our list to try and overall it did not disappoint. We tried several different savory and sweet options and all were delicious! My only complaint is the price point being a little high. The shop is small so we arrived close to 8am and were able to grab seating for six right at the front. I am glad we didn't arrive later as business picked up as we were leaving. Servers were quick with the orders and beverage orders. I ordered a matcha latte and was happily satisfied. Others in my party loved the house tea.

My second visit here as I wanted something a little sweet and a crumpet w jam was perfect! Lovely flavors and textures. Great and friendly service and just a cute little shop overall!

Salmon cream cheese topped with capers and pickled onions and everything but the bagel seasoning (from their spring menu)

To describe a crumpet, think of it as a soft toasted English muffin. You can top it any way you like, sweet jams or savory. I really enjoy cream cheese on any kind of carb so I opted for the salmon cream cheese. They had a few extra toppings as part of their spring menu special so I opted to have it topped with capers, everything but the bagel seasoning and pickled onions. Pretty tasty combo! We came around 3pm, so no line and plenty of seating. It's a small place, just a few small tables and a bar with a few bar stools. You can get tea or coffee with your crumpet. If you feel compelled to bring some home for your friends you can buy a bag of crumpets and bring them home. I'm sure they'll taste good once they're heated up. I thought $8.75 was steep for my crumpet but it wasn't a trip to Pike Place Market without trying it.

This little spot is a must to check out while in the area. We had the opportunity to try a real life crumpet! I had a crumpet with pesto and cheese.... soooo amazing! We were the first people in the building that morning so I have no complaints about service. Staff were friendly and helpful in explaining what was on the menu and providing recommendations. I'll most definitely be back for breakfast next time I'm in town. Wish I had gotten a picture of my food but I was so enthralled with the cool mural on the back wall.

Buttered + Seattle crumpets
Xochitl L.

Super cute and unique spot! You could see them making the crumpets, and that freshness definitely pays off. They do have nuts on the menu but were able to change gloves and wipe down the surface for my fiance who has nut allergies. We tried a buttered crumpet and a Seattle crumpet. Both were great--truly a perfect spot for a light breakfast in the area, and a bit different from your usual American fare!

Tiffany Y.

I've been here plenty of times! Such a great place in Seattle / Pike Place Market! The lines can be long, but it goes by fast! Limited seating. It's not the cheapest, but it's a good snack to eat while browsing the market and snacking more! I enjoy getting the ricotta, pesto, and tomato and rob's favorite!

Have you ever had a crumpet?? I hadn't. And boy was I missing out. On a family outing, my daughter came out with a Maple Butter Crumpet and declared it the best thing ever!! So naturally I had to try it. We opted for 2 crumpets, the Maple Butter and Smoked Salmon with Cucumber. They are meant to be eaten with your hands. Can do!! The Maple Butter was heavenly. The crumpet is soft with a bit of a crispy bottom. Delightful really. The smoked salmon was flavorful, but not overly, and had crisp cucumber on top. How have I never been there. Such a wonderful surprise!!

I decided to go with The Walrus Crumpet. The crumpet was light and fluffy. The ricotta, honey and walnuts complimented each other wonderfully. The crumpet was a little on the small side but the generous helping of honey made up for it. The service and staff were great and it was nice to watch the employees making the crumpets fresh.

Will they be open on New Year's Day 2019?

I think its best to call them tomorrow when they open.

How long do you think the line is on a Thursday morn?

7am there will be a short line. Prime time is 8am to 10:00. The line goes quickly. I do the social media for the shop. Friday-Sunday are the busiest.

How many calories do you think are in 1 crumpet?

Probably not too bad. In Seattle you do a lot of walking up hill, so what ever the calorie count is, it is worth it, and you will burn off the calories.

I ended up visiting the second time because of their very cool merch selection, and I regretted not buying a shirt I liked the first time. I only tried the espresso here, though they had many other tasty-sounding drinks and delicious-looking pastries. The espresso was not bitter, well-balanced, and at a great temperature. They serve it right with sparkling water on the side. Absolutely perfect! Out of all of the coffee spots in Seattle, Anchorhead Coffee is worth the visit for sure!

I first tried the turon matcha which I thought was good but had a mild banana flavor. I was expecting more of a caramelized flavor but I still thought it was good. The next day, I ordered the matcha einspanner. Their housemade yoka whip was so yummy and added the perfect amount of sweetness to the matcha latte. Overall, the matcha here is smooth and both drinks weren't too sweet.

We went around 11 in the morning, and it was PACKEDDDD. The inside was completely full, and there was even a line out the door, so I honestly didn't think our group of 4 would find seating. The line moved really fast tho, and we managed to grab one of the viet style low table and chair setups that you'd typically see on the street back home, I liked it a lot.

Drinks: 1 phe muoi $6.75 1 matcha einspanner $8.75 1 earl grey matcha $9 1 banana pudding matcha latte $11 1 hojicha latte $6.50 Their matcha was smooth, no astringency, I wished it was more matcha taste bc it's a little light but that's just me bc I like umami matcha. Food: Phe Sliders $13 MUSTTTT GET!! My group absolutely devoured these. The rolls were soft and airy, and somehow the sliders still felt light and not too heavy. The aioli was sooooo yum we scrape every bits of it lolllll. I'd honestly come back just for this dish alone. xoi chay $15- Really good breakfast option. The sticky rice was soft and chewy, and all of the toppings came together really well. Easily my new favorite spot.

I've had a black sesame Matcha from somewhere else before, and the sesame flavor was very light, so that was what I was expecting, but was met with a very strong sesame flavor.

I'm not sure what much they used, but it didn't taste like the best quality, but it is still delicious and their drinks are all fun . The inside is small but and warm and cozy and they do have some seating. I was always able to find a spot. Super cute place with very sweet baristas.
