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.“

“NEKO Cat Cafe is such a fun, feel-good spot in Seattle. You come for the coffee, but honestly, you stay for the cats. The space is bright, clean, and thoughtfully set up so the cats can roam freely while guests relax.

The drinks are solid, but the real highlight is spending time with adoptable cats in a calm, cozy setting. It’s a cute date idea, a stress-reliever after a long day, or just a sweet way to support animal adoption while enjoying a coffee.“

“Wonderful community cafe thats tucked away in a charming little corner of Eastlake.

5 stars because they are putting in the hard work. Locally owned, locally operated, and community focused. They put in the effort to bring people together with fun little events AND by being a coffee shop that stays open long enough to enjoy a comfy happy hour on their outside seating.

What they do well: Community.

What they struggle with (Sometimes): Espresso. I know it seems crazy to give 5 stars and then be critical of their espresso. But its just the way it is. I believe they use Lighthouse Roasters (local to seattle) and I don't know if its the roast, the beans, or the machine. But the espresso can be subpar on occasion.

But still worth the visit.“

“Amazing gelato and an even better experience! The owner was incredibly kind and let the three of us taste every flavor while explaining how they’re made. The flavors taste so natural—you can really sense the real fruit in them. It was also heartwarming to see him teaching his daughter to scoop gelato. Highly recommend!“

“A small cafe that specializes in non-alcoholic spirits, craft coffee, and absolutely lovely bakery and small bites. The atmosphere is welcoming and adult. Around the side by the bus bins there are a few thematic coloring books and pencils, origami instructions and paper, and freely available water. I thoroughly enjoyed myself finishing the coloring page of a Chinese herb. The food influences seem primarily German and Asian. I recommend for someone who loves food or beverage exploration, or for friends looking for someplace to feel both homey and fancy.“

“Delicious food and an incredibly welcoming atmosphere. The cheese appetizer is especially great, though everything we’ve tried so far has been very good. I got a Turkish coffee to go that was so good I yelled AMAZING! out loud, while I was walking, and then realized I was bellowing in public. Glad to have this addition to the neighborhood!“

“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.“

“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!“

“Noon Cafe is truly a gem. I’ve visited a couple of times in person, and I’ve also ordered delivery, and every experience has been excellent.

From the moment you walk in, you’re welcomed with warm, genuine customer service that makes you feel valued and comfortable. The staff are attentive, kind, and always ready to help with a smile.

The food quality is outstanding — always fresh, beautifully presented, and full of flavor, whether dining in or ordering delivery. Even through delivery, everything arrives well-packed, hot, and just as delicious as in the cafe.

Clean atmosphere, great service, and consistently high-quality food all in one place. Highly recommended for anyone who appreciates quality and professionalism. I will definitely be coming back.“

“Very good coffee nice service“

“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.“

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

“A must try when in Seattle! Incredible vegan savory and sweet options - we are obsessed with the vegan beef and cheese piroshki, and potato rosemary, but there are so many! They have the best sticky bun ever too. Our son loved the non vegan ones too! One of the best places in Seattle!“

“Yeobo was a great spot to chill with a cocktail on a Friday evening. The space is large, with plenty of seating and couches for groups. Vibes were relaxed and while I didn't adore my negroni, the menu had other options I'd try next time.“

“Cute coffee shop with food. Got the turkey breakfast bagel sandwich which was not bad. I was a little annoyed that we were told there was only plain bagels left but then after we had ordered and sat down they restocked the bagels available.

The coffee is pretty good.“

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

“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.“

“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!“

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

“I went in not really expecting much but found a delightful and charming place. The atmosphere was nice, quiet, but not completely without noise. Everyone seemed to either be softly chatting or working on a project. There was an upstairs area that I didn't check out, but seemed quite large to me since people kept appearing and disappearing throughout my time at the cafe.

There isn't a wide yarn selection, and they don't sell any hooks, needles, or any other crafting supplies beyond a few crochet kits and yarn. I wouldn't recommend coming here if you're here to buy supplies. I didn't look too much into the yarn, but they do carry some of Yarn Dragon's skeins (and is mostly merino?), and what appeared to me as some mercerized cotton yarns.

The owner is really sweet and nice. I got a hojicha latte and it was warm and delightful. She brought me a lamp from upstairs when it got a bit dark downstairs and I was working on my crochet project which I greatly appreciate. She was working on a scarf when I came in and didn't seem bothered when she would have to step away from the project to help customers or generally maintain the store.
The bathrooms are clean and have period products in stock which is also something I appreciate even though I didn't need them.“

“Adorable place with amazing drinks. I love that this place let's you pick your choice of caffeine: matcha, espresso, hojicha, it makes it so nice in terms of customization! Their matcha is very solid and I really recommend the Sea Salt Cream Matcha! It's got a jasmine tea base and tastes really similar to HeyTea or even UG tea's jasmine matcha cloud drinks.“

“Excelente servicio me encanta su atención“

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

“i’ve been to gearhouse a few times to work and drink coffee and it is always such a delight! tonight i went to the wilderness women’s happy hour and had such a wonderful time talking with like minded women and getting to know more of the seattle community. gearhouse is a perfect place to create community!“

“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! 😂“

“So many amazing vegan options along with the non-veg options. Had the #4 breakfast sandwich, the tofu bahn mi, and the oatmeal chocolate chip muffin and my friend got the same bahn mi and a maple latte...all so good 🩷 and the staff were so kind and helpful. Just a solid spot. Check it out 🌸“

“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!“

“First timer. The crumpets were so delish I bought some for home and they are not lasting long. Latte was perfect, with one of those lovely foam designs on top, that just make it more fun! Staff super friendly and setting very clean. Will be back!“

“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.“

“Hole in the wall neighborhood place. Wonderful owners workers small little dining room. Great sandwiches! If you're in the belltown area on foot, find this place. It's near the Seattle center right on the corner. It's worth it“

“This is one of my favorite places and Seattle. Easily. If you like sandwiches, then you should definitely come here. They compete with Fortuna and - in my opinion - exceed Fortuna (largely because of portion; you just get more bang for your buck here). We’ve had almost every sandwich available from Hushy’s. The Turkey is a clear winner (its combo of salty, somewhat smokey and tanginess lets it stand out). Our next favorite is a tie between the mortadella and the (fried) fish sandwich. You really can’t go wrong with any of their sandwiches. Two things I’d point out:

1) The Japanese beef curry sandwich is too salty
2) The sandwiches are expensive (but one sandwich can easily feed two)

Oh and the atmosphere is dope. Just take a look for yourself. This place deserves 5 stars.“

“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.“

“We just moved to the neighborhood and had been here once before since it’s my mom’s favorite coffee place, but we’ve now been back several times! The coffee is quite good, and I also love their sandwiches. So sad to hear they’re closing—this place will definitely be missed. 💔☕️“

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

“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!“

“This place has a lot going for it: Nice late night hours, good seating and for me personally I like the fact that the owner isn't trying to fit some kind of mold. At the same time all the employees are always very glad to see you.“

“Great ambiance, wonderful service, and tasty food“

“I’ve been to at least 50 different coffee shops in Seattle, this is the best all around. Amazing coffee, amazing people, amazing seating options, so cozy and warm and wonderful. Just delightful all around. Never had a bad experience and I’m here every weekend now.

Edit to add: I hadn’t tried their food until yesterday and WOW. That veggie bowl seems simple but WOWOWOWOW. Delicious“

“Great coffee with well-balanced flavors and quality ingredients.
The space is cozy, modern, and actually comfortable to sit and work in.
Staff are friendly and service is consistently smooth.
One of the better coffee spots in Bellevue worth revisiting.“

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

“the best place ever for deserts and milkshakes 🥰😍😍😍“

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

“Went to a cafe to study and connect with a close friend. Saw the atmosphere was not ideal and decided to try this out. The staff was extremely courteous and allowed up to setup, without providing pressure to become customers. Ample seating provided, and saw other patrons see this place as ideal for regular meetups. Excellent ethic menu, excited to try various delicious dishes from the Fertile Crescent.
Happy international kindness day and thanx for providing so much warmth!!!“

“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.“
