    The Station for years have been nothing but a safe place and haven for BIPOCs. It feels good to know that even tho I have left Seattle and the people behind the counter are new and the menu has grown... that I can come back after two years and still feel the love as if I ain't even left. Just that alone makes this place a vibe. Then you add in the music that's bumping, the aroma of the place, the acceptance of any and everyone, the drinks that will scratch whatever itch you have from bitter to sweet to frothy to foamy to bubbly to teas to espressos to topo chicos... you're in good hands here. There about 10 sandwiches to choose from. El Centro is my fav and they'll run you about 13 bucks. But the scones which are vegan is where it's at. And no matter how busy they are. They always serve you with a smile and get you your items within 5-10 minutes.

    Cold Brew with Oat Milk
    Joel H.

    The other coffee shops I visited during my trip to Seattle were sanitized, heartless establishments. The drinks were good but there was nothing thought provoking, nothing that made me look inward and reflect on myself as a person. The Station is the antithesis of these other shops. The Station is easy to get to from the Link. Exit the Beacon Hill station, turn right, walk across the street and you have arrived. There is both indoor and outdoor seating available. Inside you will find the walls covered with vivid art, a bulletin board overflowing with inclusivity that the Station seems to pride itself on, a stereo system sending out sounds and, of course, a drink and food menu. I opted for the Haitian Cold Brew with Oat Milk during my visit. The cold brew and oat milk combo was really good. It was smooth and bold. Despite being such a good drink, the price was much less than the other coffee shops I came across in Downtown. The Station definitely could've charged more for the quality they were selling. Overall, great drink, good vibes, inclusive environment.

    Great coffee shop stop in the Beacon Hill neighborhood of Seattle, this time I was there to support some friends that are part of the Seattle Urban Book Expo. Lots of unique and flavorful coffee and teas to choose from, the breakfast menu looked delicious, looking forward to a morning stop to try it out. Lots of art throughout supporting local artists. The adult beverages offered also support the local community. Staff was very friendly with quick service and answered any questions. Definitely looking forward to visiting again soon, to try some coffee and check out more of the Beacon Hill area. Happy Yelping! Cheers!

    Bustling coffee shop with a cozy interior, delicious espresso drinks, and tasty pastries/bites. The oat milk latte ($4.25 for a small) was smooth and creamy. Blueberry scone ($3) was a great size, buttermilk-y, soft, lemon scented and studded with blueberries. They also had a giant list of delicious sounding specialty lattes! Can't wait to come back and try more items!

    This small Cafe in Beacon Hill is so beautiful! I have never explored around the Beacon hill and was happy to meet a friend here. I'm surprised how this is so under-rated around the area. This definitely is a local gem, as the locals and baristas knew each other. I picked the house favorite D Angelo coffee withe brown sugar, it was so good. There is a community book cupboard where you can drop and pick books and a community garden where you can pick seeds too. I ll definitely go back to donate some books in the future.

    Such a wonderful cafe and community gathering space! Very welcoming, good amount of seating inside, and all around nice atmosphere. Came here twice within a week! Solid food and drink offerings for a good price. The first time I got the Mexican mocha and second time I got a soy latte. Both great! Some pastries they get from other local bakeries where some they make in house like their biscuit which my sister got and looked delicious. So happy to discover this local coffee shop in my neighborhood!

    I wish I would have gotten her name to give her a proper shoutout, but the woman with the glasses and the gorgeous hair made the best latte I have had in I don't know how long. I typically get a quad vanilla latte, and I'm pretty used to getting a coffee with dead shots (bitter and not ideal to drink), due to how they've been pulled. This coffee is so freaking good, thank you!! I also got the Breakfast Sandwich which is a simple sausage egg and cheese option, but the quality is good and the chipotle sauce kicks it up a notch. (Not pictured because it's already gone lol) Definitely will be back.

    While down in Seattle I looked up coffee that wasn't Starbucks. I came across this place and it's the place I never knew I needed! The delightful cafe has a local artist work displayed and available for sale. In addition, there was a women setting up her plants to sell as well. The menu featured a variety of coffee and wine/mimosa options for drinks and had a delicious breakfast menu. My husband and I ordered two mimosas, a breakfast sandwich and their oatmeal. The person working the register was attentive, friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back!

    The Station is a cool spot on Beacon Hill for coffee and grub. I visited The Station in need of some caffeine, as it's super close to the Beacon Hill light rail station and other businesses. The Station has a full menu, along with pastries, snacks and a full espresso menu. And, tea. One of these days I'm gonna get on that biscuits and gravy train, which they offer here! The cafe is spacious, and when I visited on a Sunday morning there were a few people working inside. I ordered a cold brew and it was solid. Service was easy and quick for getting my coffee to-go. I'm glad to learn about The Station, as I often visit Beacon Hill since one of my besties lives in the area. The location is accessible by public transit and street parking can be found around the neighborhood.

    No lactose-free milk options without a premium. :/ You'd think with Starbucks getting in trouble for such, there would be at least one.

The WiFi is fast. The only downside is there aren't many power outlets. The drip coffee was great. You can get it in a mug and refill it for I believe $0.80. Super convenient for those spending some time in the cafe, like me! I also really enjoyed the egg and cheese sandwich I got. I like that the bread is foccacia - I feel like this is unique for a breakfast sandwich. The space itself is very tidy. You bus your own table, but someone also comes by regularly to clean the tables. There is also a clean bathroom. Street parking only, so you might have to park a little further during busy hours. There are sooo many pastries that I want to try, so I will be back!

Parking wasn't that easy but we made it 10 minutes later. Car was extremely hot after coming back. Look at the right side when coming inside Menu is there. Some thing would be gone by mid-day. Coffe was good as well as the quinoa salad and the pizza round. The best was the mushroom sandwich. The down side was the breakfast sandwich. OMG, what's in it?? It's a mix of something like egg cause it is orange in a square shape. I guess is that "liquid egg" mix. Which most of the times isn't egg. Had some poppy seeds? And then realized: could it be the vegeterian version? Why calling it egg then?? The smell was the opposite of appetizing. I ordered them for children and they had some flakes. Not a big deal this, but I wouldn't recommend something that simple on paper, but not in plate. 3 small tables downstairs in the middle of the hall. Seating is extended upstairs. Cool inside. Very warm outside during summer. Water stations on both stories. Staff was OK. They won't answer back even when only waiting for a sandwich to come out of the oven. This was hilarious. Not even at Starbucks. The big "but" for my party is going with kids. Having to take them down and upstairs everytime when ordering or picking up stuff. Because, let me tell you, there is a lack of empathy at this place. You'll have to sort it out with a baby and toddler on one hand, and tray, cups, utensils, second tray, coffee, salad, and miscellaneous on the other hand. Yes...you read right. And bringing all upstairs on as many rounds as you can. While baristas (3 baristas to make coffee and warm sandwiches) were chatting. The bright side: 2 were preparing food for next day :) Fortunately, another patron came to the rescue. She was chatting with their party and was a great samaritan for standing up, helping with the door, and bringing one of the trays. Tip: let water run a bit in yhe restroom. I got burned. I guess it was a bit stalled and sun didn't help :( Price and tip are not cheap! Would I come back? Definitely no!

I noticed that they now pour drinks from a pre-made plastic jug instead of making them fresh like when the store first opened. I usually don't get sick from drinking coffee but twice in a row is pretty bad. Their drinks are also overly sweet and most of them do not have a 0% sweet option, which is usually what I order from other coffee and tea shops, and it's probably because most of the ingredients are pre-mixed. They also use thick plastic cups, considering that Seattle is a pretty green city and a lot of similar Vietnamese coffee shops use sustainable cups. Sad to say, but my time visiting this chain has come to an end.

It shares a parking lot with what looks like a defunct Rainier Beer Brewery building, though parking here was nearly packed near this location when I got here. Interior is very pink, very cute and very casual with semi-loud music and an environment that invites the laptop crowd to crowd in but without as much strength. There's also a drive-thru here, and the two baristas working the counter were super efficient dividing their time between the orders there and the orders coming from regular cafe patrons like myself! They were also pretty patient with me and other customers after me as I was still deciding what i wanted. They offer a wide variety of options from their signature coffees to healthier drinks and even some pastries and merch. You can get their drinks in various sizes, and the larger the size the more espresso shots it will have. With that said, I got their 16oz (2 shots of espresso) iced toffee butter macchiato with regular milk, and I could feel the espresso hitting me as I quickly downed the drink like I usually do. There's a little bit of sweetness from the caramel and toffee, and of course a strong caramel touch that actually stays on level with their coffee, which doesn't take over any of the taste added in. What a nice coffee place to stop at along a road that I travel often! I would so grab another one of their signature drinks when I come back here.

It was even more disappointing when we tasted the food and found it mediocre. The crepe we ordered was undercooked on the inside. We probably could have gone grocery shopping and whipped this up for less time and money. The prices are pretty high considering that they're serving breakfast food. We really wanted to like this place :(
