    Matcha latte
    Kirsten R.

    Convenient location being across from the MPop. Friendly and welcoming barista. However our two hot drinks, a honey latte and matcha latte, needed to be stirred more. I walked away with chunks of matcha powder in mine that never integrated, sadly.

    Quaint little spot near the Space Needle. Despite it being attached to a parking garage, it was quiet and calm and a great place to kick up our feet after walking for miles. The cashier/server was very friendly, and the food was good, didn't feel like we paid an excessive amount despite it being in a hot spot.

    Such a cute little coffee shop right by all of the museums:) I stopped in here yesterday and had the most wonderful conversation with the sweetest barista, Kristina! She was so helpful with recommendations throughout the city and truly was a breath of fresh air! She made me an amazing cardamom latte, it was my first one and I really enjoyed it! My bf got an Americano and loved it as well. Def stop by if you have time and are in the area:)

    Coffee is a must this morning!

    Delish. We were looking for a coffee shop while waiting for the space needle to open and stumbled across here. Coffee was delish and we split a danish. Made my Florida heart happy to see orange blossoms out here in Seattle. The orange blossom latte had just the right sweetness for my liking.

    Just down the street from the Space Needle serving artisan coffee. The Honey Latte with actual bee pollen is a must! They also have some pastries, and lunch items, and some dog treats for the pups. There is a restroom at the back that they need to unlock for you.

    The smell of coffee before you walk in drew me. It's clean and good service it's not crowded. Also fast he is fast at making the coffee. Please be aware that the location is situated within a car garage, ensuring that you can find your way without any confusion or difficulty.

    I was walking by this coffee shop and saw a sign outside for lavender latte so I went in. Immediately was greeted with a smile and Turkish delight (so good!!) The cafe seems to have regulars who are all super friendly which is always a great sign. The lavender latte was SO good!!!

    Excellent drinks and really friendly service! Would definitely recommend. I like the mocha and lemonade especially. They also have a lavender lemonade i haven't tried yet

    Iced Lavender Latte

    Decided to get some Seattle coffee before heading back to Canada and conveniently ran into this place on the way back from the Space Needle. This shop is alongside a parking garage next to the Pop culture museum. It's located outside, so it's an open store front. We decided to get the iced Honey Lavender latte and iced vanilla latte. Both really tasty! The coffee was smooth, not sour, and just the right amount of flavor. They also had station to add any additional stuff you may want in your coffee like sugar and creamer. Service was great; the girl at the counter was sweet and made wonderful recommendations. Price point was comparable to other coffee shops in the area.

    Best coffee I had in my short trip to seattle. If you are by space needle, it is a MUST try.

    The coffee, sandwiches, and pastries are fantastic here! I love the variety of specialty coffees and the owners are so kind. Fun outdoor seating and right by the space needle and museums.

    Amazing food and service! The muffin and coffee were great and the people were so pleasant and friendly. The environment was warm and welcoming. Give it a try!

    While walking Downtown Seattle this morning I came across Seattle Grind. Located in a pretty busy area you are so close to great museums, art, and beautiful trees and park. Located attached to a parking garage there is small seating, but more of a to go spot to me. The menu was fairly simple and since I'd already ate I passed on their options which included muffins, some breakfast sandwiches and such . I decided on a vanilla latte iced. With only one employee working he did great keeping up with the fast growing crowd. My latte was smooth, great flavor and I really enjoyed it as I walked more of the city.

The restaurant is family owned, and it felt very loved and lived in. I could see all the love that went into making this restaurant and I can see why it is such a loved spot. There's so many people waiting to come in and eat at this spot. I waited in line for almost an hour, and I usually don't like to wait for my food, but this place is worth it. Their service was perfect and they made sure to check in on us. When you walk in, you order and then you are placed at a table. Shortly after you do get your food and I didn't wait too long for my meal. To be honest, I'm writing this review late. It's been a few months, but I'm still dreaming about that Ube pancake. Since it's brunch time, it was quite busy on a Saturday afternoon, but it was lively and heartwarming to be amongst people that were enjoying the food and the environment. I can't wait to go back as I stare at my magnet from California!

Intimate atmosphere, friendly service, and the best fresh, locally sourced, farm/sea to table food. We usually go with at least 4 people so we can order a half dozen oysters on the half shell and another half dozen baked (both amazing). Then, we always get one of their salads - so delicious and unique. We love the BLT salad, this time the shredded beat and carrot salad was excellent, and so was the butter lettuce salad w/ housemade Green Goddess dressing. The soups are insane, but this time we tried the smoked sablefish with an unreal horseradish cream and beets. For entrees, we ordered the pork w/ nectarines (out of this world), moussaka and halibut. For dessert, profiteroles and their galette of the day w/ housemade ice cream - wow. An absolutely delightful meal. Can't wait to return!

The baked eggs, however, were just okay - nothing particularly good. The ambiance was cozy and nice, right in downtown Seattle. However, be prepared: the wait can be long, and once you're done, they'll need the table, as there's usually a line. Overall, it's worth a visit - just make a reservation and come for the Dutch babies. I was told there are seasonal Dutch babies so try again sometime in June maybe.

    We had an unpleasant experience with the host today. When my boyfriend and I arrived, we asked for…read morea table for 2 and were told it would be ~ 10 minute wait. The host asked us to wait outside and said she would come get us when our table was ready. A family who was already waiting outside was called in shortly after, and we continued waiting. We saw several parties leave and many people come in and get seated right away, so we assumed they had reservations. After waiting about 25 minutes, we went back inside to check on our table. The host told us that we "didn't leave a phone number," even though we were never asked for one and were told to wait outside until she comes get us. Instead of acknowledging the mistake, she complimented my shirt mid-conversation, which felt like she was trying to brush it off. The entire time we were outside, we were the only people waiting, and we even saw her setting up the outside seating as the restaurant got busier. She never once checked in with us or said anything. The food was good, and our service once we were seated was great. Unfortunately, our first interaction with the host left a bad first impression and took away from the overall experience. That's why we're taking off two stars.

We came in around 1:45pmish and it wasn't crowded. They had an amazing selection of pastries, though I didn't try any. I got their Caramelized Banana Latte to satisfy my sweet tooth, and it wasn't too banana-flavored nor too sweet; the black sesame in it balanced it nicely. I also got the Urban Pesto, which was SO yum. I was little skeptical of the focaccia - sometimes I find it to be too puffy, and thus hard to eat the sandwich - but this had a lovely panini press on it that made it easy to eat. The in-house herby cheese in the sandwich made each bite just that much more delicious. The staff was also super nice and accommodating to my parents' requests and questions. Can't wait to come back to try their other food and bev options!

I appreciated that this location has both spacious indoor and outdoor seating. Despite being busy, this was not packed with ample seating still available and not cramped.

Tempting pastry case with savory and sweet choices, the usual bevs, as well as, cocktails. Vibrant place to visit solo or meetups with others. The 16oz iced mokka (mocha) I had was well crafted. Both counter folks were personable and welcoming. I was able to sit at a two top and remain cool during my brief visit on that hot Tuesday early afternoon. They've been an indie (Cafe Hagen/Freya) that has expanded to many locations: here in SLU, two on Queen Anne, downtown on 5th, at Dexter, the Waterfront, Freya in Pike Place Market and Nordic Museum in Ballard, plus sites over in Bellevue and Kirkland.
