50 Best Cafes near Kenmore

“Friendly staff, great food at very reasonable prices. Worth the trip!“

“If I lived in Seattle def would be my go to restaurant. Amazing service and incredible food. Highly recommend the Dutch Baby. Salmon Salad Sandwich and French Onion Soup! Do you deliver to Ohio?? 😁“

“Best coffee I have had in Seattle hands down.“

“We were greeted as soon as we came in and girl behind the bar was great. She was very personable, including us in an ongoing conversation with a regular that was studying at the bar. We enjoyed a beer in the bar while the kiddo got to hang out with the cats. Prices were very reasonable.“

“Lovely little cafe tucked away in a relatively quiet street. I ordered the black sesame salted caramel latte (with salted whipped cream), cardomom knot, and breakfast sandwich. All were so good! Especially the latte. Would come back just for that.

Lots of seating both outdoors and indoors, with a water bowl outside for the pups. I came on a Thursday morning and there was plenty of seating, but can’t speak to how busy it might be on a weekend.“

“A cozy little spot in Scandinavian style — an original designer project with its own philosophy and story (no spoilers, you’ll have to discover it yourself). Despite being small, it feels incredibly comfortable, with a friendly atmosphere and genuinely nice people among the visitors. The bartender/vendor is always warm and talkative, no matter the shift. You can sit inside or settle outside in a wooden chair, sipping a beer or coffee while watching a beautiful sunset over Lake Union. There’s a small parking lot, so you’ll definitely find the place — the bar is on the first floor, right on the corner.

As for the food, the menu isn’t huge — more like light bites and snacks, sandwiches, and similar stuff. You can also grab anything to go (drinks included). They’ve got good beer and delicious coffee to take away. Often, the lovely coffee aroma drifts down the street, drawing you into Fram ☺️ Highly recommend this place.“

“What a lovely crew at this immaculate little shop! We were strangers in an unfamiliar neighborhood and stepped in to get out of the rain. Enticed by the aroma of coffee and chai tea, we learned quickly that they have a full menu. Run by a husband and wife team, they celebrate their combined Chinese and German heritage with the food and drink offerings. They even serve beer and wine and drink specials. Obviously they are great people because we went back for more on the next day and the staff treated us like old friends and regulars! Highly recommended.“

“Very good coffee nice service“

“I give Oxbow 4 stars due to the price. $4.50 for a small slice of pizza, and almost $13 for a loaf of sourdough is tough to want to pay. Unfortunately it seems like the price issue is Seattle wide, which is a shame considering in places like NYC you can get a pizza slice twice the size for half the price. The pizza itself was fine, but the crust was great! Additionally, the sourdough is very good! Staff was friendly and the bakery is clean and spacious.“

“We absolutely LOVE the Seattle Meowtropolitan!! My 8 year old and I have been visiting regularly for more than a year now and we‘ve bonded with all the amazing kitties! Everyone who works and volunteers here is so kind as well. The kitty-themed drinks and kitty macaroons are all delicious too! And the cat-inspired decorations—even in the restrooms—are wonderful! It’s a kitty paradise for all the cats and humans who visit. :) We highly recommend everyone who loves cats visits this magical place!“

“My fiancé and I are so thrilled we came across this gem! The food was so flavorful and delicious, and the customer service was AMAZING. Some of the nicest people you’ll ever meet, and they were SO attentive to our needs; made sure we were satisfied the entire time! Wonderful experience! Would definitely come back when visiting from out of state again!“

“Excellent service and good food!“

“While we unfortunately don't live in state and get to enjoy the stores in person, we have been purchasing from Zulus online for over 4 years now and we have always had a positive experience with them. This last order I had placed was no different on their end, had an issue with a pricey package being marked as delivered and misdelivered multiple times by UPS over the course of 2 weeks, back and forth getting nowhere and Zulus customer support was so helpful all along the way. Amazing communication, we had purchased the shipping insurance and they helped to get us a replacement order via Fedex, appreciate them so much through all of that. Keep kicking butt Zulus!“

“Great breakfast at this place! This diner feels well-loved and found out it's been in the family for generations. The food we had was exactly what we were craving and the server kept coming around and filling up my coffee. Love that it was open early and a great location to visit Gas Works Park afterwards.“

“Super impressed with this locally owned coffee shop... It has the vibe of old school Seattle coffee shops with a fresh edge, which is to say it's casual and comfortable, made for hanging out, but they also carry more food and make it easy to get stuff to go.
They bake and make all their stuff in house. The excellence of their wares is evidenced by the number of customers and the many take out orders getting picked up.
The counter person was super helpful, friendly and welcoming. They recommended several things and I tried the coconut bread, a signature item. It was delicious - a large slab that was moist and flavorful. I appreciate the variety. This isn't the same old-same old.
My iced coffee with vanilla was perfection. I look forward to returning soon!“

“One of my favorite quick and easy travel meals in the city! I used to go multiple times a weeks when the location was downtown. The new capital hill spot has fairly easy parking. Though not near my work route, I still make the trip over for the bacon/ham/ egg or the garlic beef. Lots of amazing stuff to try with loads of light and airy seating options.“

“Delicious custard taiyaki and toffee coffee. I did a last minute order from here, and wow; both things were amazing. ❤️“

“My work team gets the veggie bagel sandwiches here from time to time and we love them. They’re always delicious and unique, with (I think) garlic oil on the inside, eggs, veggies, cheese and your choice of bagel. No matter how many I’m ordering or how busy it is, service is always genuine and efficient.“

“wonderful service, AMAZING coconut cake! a lovely spot for a great dessert!“

“The only thing better then the staff was the food! The Duan Duan croissant, egg tart and scones were amazing!“

“Considering tax is included, no tip required, and no oat milk surcharge, I feel like this is one of the cheaper options to get a matcha latte! And the baristas are so sweet! Upstairs is very cozy for working on your fiber arts project. There's also desk lamps and a yarn winder/swift for you to borrow. Hojicha was sold out the afternoon I came, but I will definitely stop by again.“

“I live in the university district and I frequent this cafe’ and I brought my Russian girlfriend here and she and I have enjoyed many of are desserts from this location.“

“🤷‍♀️My sister and I had never been here before. I got here first and I knew she would love it❤️, given the menu and the warm atmosphere. I got drip coffee☕️ which was perfect and a bowl of the lentil soup🥣 with baguette🥖, soup had just been made. The lentil is similar to Turkish lentil, very smooth. She had the spinach pizza, Turkish coffee☕️ and we split the pistachio croissant. Everything was tasty. The Turkish coffee 🍵could use some cardamom, however, imho.
The main draw to Radiant Flavors is the family who works there. They are so personable, checking to make sure we were pleased with everything. And so friendly! The ambiance was chill and relaxed. We shall return!! ❤️“

“Yeobo Café and Bar, located at Madison and John in Seattle, is a super cute and chill spot. The team is exceptional, and I had the best sweet coffee of my life. Like seriously... toasted sesame with coffee is my new love language. I love their socially responsible no-tipping policy and how it fosters equitable compensation for the team. Mad kudos. With reasonable prices and comfy furniture, it’s the perfect everyday vibe. As in if I lived in the neighborhood I'd be there everyday.“

“Seasonal menu is great, the mocha shake is to die for. I upgraded mine to a malt, just finished it, and I want another already 😂 Barista was kind and friendly.“

“kind and welcoming staff and the food was delicious“

“Great place to meet fellow business owners in an affordable way!“

“this is the coffee shop side of gearhouse - an outdoor social club. Great drink menu with good quality coffee to your day. the vibe is great for getting work done, with the occasional co-working opportunities if I run into other GH member :)“

“Having just moved to Belltown, I’ve been looking for a cute local lunch spot. The folks running this spot are absolutely lovely, my BLT was amazing, and I’ve been dreaming about their peach mango black ice tea ever since. If you’re looking for a small business to support, this spot absolutely deserves it.“

“Wonderful food, great ambience and the strawberry smoothie stole the show for us. If you're in the Edmonds area give this place a visit!“

“Huge, delicious sandwiches on focaccia. Nice space with a patio out front. Pricing on the sandwiches is not crazy imo, but I paid $10 for a can of beer I was expecting to be on draft. Cocktails are decent but not a cheap place to grab a drink.“

“Stone Way Cafe was one of those spots I followed on Instagram long before I finally got the chance to visit. Known for their breakfast burritos, I made my way there on a sunny Saturday morning around 9:30 a.m. It was easy to find free street parking just a few blocks away, but as expected, there was already a line of 15+ people out the door. It’s clear the staff have a solid process down, because we only had to wait about 15 mins for our order.

My friend and I each ordered the sausage breakfast burrito, a side of potatoes, a matcha oat milk latte, and their special coconut cold brew. The burritos were generously sized and packed with flavor. We didn't realize they already came with potatoes inside, so the extra side of potatoes ended up being a bit much which was good to know for next time. Towards the end, my burrito was pretty oily but that makes sense since it was sausage. Both drinks were solid, but nothing to write home about.

I really appreciated that the restaurant offered a variety of hot sauces -- sriracha, Valentino's, and Tapatío -- which is essential for me when it comes to breakfast. Prices were fair for Seattle, especially considering the portion sizes and quality. The cafe has both indoor and outdoor seating, making it a great spot year-round.

Next time I'm in the area, I'd love to swing by for lunch -- their other food and drink items looked just as tempting!“

“Van Gogh Coffeehouse in Wedgwood is like stepping into a cozy, caffeine-fueled version of the artist’s mind—minus the ear incident. The walls are adorned with Van Gogh reproductions, giving the place a quirky charm. I ordered a veggie sausage breakfast sandwich: a savory patty nestled between a toasted English muffin, with egg, cheddar, and mayo. It was hearty and satisfying, a perfect start to the day. The sparkling water added a refreshing touch. The staff were friendly and efficient, making the experience even more enjoyable. The ambiance is laid-back, with a mix of locals and students typing away on laptops. It’s a delightful spot that captures Seattle’s unique blend of art and coffee culture.“

“Love the coffee and the atmosphere. Customer service is unfortunately lacking at times. They messed up a Doordash order (ordered a traditional and they completely forgot the milk. Literally just a mostly-empty cup with a shot of espresso in it), and we've been unable to contact them about it, as they don't answer the phone and their voicemail is full. We'll still buy from them, but this isn't a great look.“

“Great ambiance, wonderful service, and tasty food“

“This cafe is so cute. We got the hojicha banana milk latte which was amazing - comforting and delicious. We also got the matcha ube jam latte which was also very good. It takes the ube jam a bit of stirring to mix in with the rest of the beverage. I will definitely go back to try the boba tea or the sesame latte!“

“Such great coffee and food. The service and atmosphere are AMAZING 😀“

“The young gentleman who helped us was very kind, patient and helpful with answering questions related to our allergies. The food was wonderful! This place is a real gem!“

“Red Arrow is my favorite cafe in Seattle! It’s a little garden oasis. It’s so cozy and fresh. I actually met the love of my life here, so the magic that rests upon this place is a miracle. Highly suggest as a first date spot. It’s very chill, the coffee is great and they have a wonderful selection of food and pastries!
(Recommend getting a little strawberry guy!)“

“Biscuit and Bean is my favorite biscuit place, the staff is amazing, and so is the food. 🖤 So good it was one of my wife's first food requests after her stroke! She was adamant about me getting her a classic with maple butter! 😂“

“Excelente servicio me encanta su atención“

“Banana foster French toast was light and fluffy and not too sweet. eggs Benedict was yummy and so was the Cuban pork hash.“

“Fun place but very very noisy ! Hard to hear. Food was excellent. I had their fall regular pot pie & arugula salad, excellent with hazelnuts. Pot pie was delicious but very black peppery! Also had ravioli…. Reportedly excellent.“

“Have been meaning to try this spot for a while. We went for Saturday brunch at about 11:30, several tables but not too busy. I had the turkey Swiss frittata sandwich on the cheddar scone. I’d asked for it in sourdough, and the server asked if I’d had the scone - tempted me to try it. The sandwich was delicious - great flavors, held together well, and the scone was worth it. My daughter had the strawberry banana waffles, per her it was delish. Also her honey lavender latte great.“

“My first day in my new city and as I walked around trying to find what I needed and came across a sign leading me here. The barista was kind and listened to my story. The pastry was amazing with tons of cinnamon and the mocha, just what I needed to move on with my move in.“

“Had a wonderful breakfast here. The food was delicious and service was quick. I loved the quirky mismatched tables, chairs and dishes. It gives a more personal atmosphere.“

“They can make any kinda of cake you can think of! And it always tastes amazing!!“

“Sevilla｜Special Milk Coffee This is a rare special coffee that is not sweet. There are some chocolate chips at the bottom. Overall, it has a mellow cocoa flavor with some orange fragrance.“

“5 ⭐️ River Trail Roasters is a gem in downtown! The young female barista (pretty sure her name started with a D?) was absolutly beautiful and super atentive. The younger guy was great too, real sharp and friendly. Awesome vibe, will defenitly be back!“
