50 Best Cafes near Kenmore

“The cafe was bustling with patrons. I was able to get a seat at the counter on a very comfortable stool. The menu was vast, with so many traditional as well as creative options. The plentiful amount of food was perfectly and beautifully prepared and served. The wait staff of only two waitresses managed the never-ending crowd with cheerful grace and impressive skill. It was art in motion. I am glad I stopped in for a late breakfast. If you are craving a traditional cafe experience with delicious food, large portions and friendly, capable staff, this is the spot.“

“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.“

“Gotta give it five stars for being such a solid vegan lunch option in this neighborhood which is otherwise lacking. Really great chickpea sandwich and Americano. Also love that they sell fresh bread! The chocolate buckwheat cookie is perfect for those of us who like sweets on the more salty side.

A bit pricey but good portions. I only ate half of my sandwich and saved the rest for later.

I have to add though that it looks like they no longer have beer and wine which I was disappointed to learn! If they were open until like 8 or 9 and I could get a glass of wine in the evening I would legit come here like 3-4x a week“

“This coffee shop is located off of the main NW Market St. The store says that they have German and Chinese influences.

Tried the Shanghai fog - don’t think it has any caffeine in it but was delicious. It’s not overly sweet and had a soft creamy taste. Definitely one of the more successful variations on the London Fog

Lines can get pretty long on weekends and I think that’s mainly due to the fact that there is only one person at the cashier and the staff didn’t seem to be in any rush to get through the line. Worth a short wait if you’re in the neighborhood~“

“Lively neighborhood spot with great coffee. It's clear they are invested in creating community in Eastlake with all their fun events! Food options include pastries, bagels from Backyard Bagels, meat pies, and some prepackaged burritos/sandwiches.“

“Loved the place and the fact I can come back later in the day than most places. Latte was good, not great, but I was happy you were even open because I hate Starbucks. Wasn't happy you ran out of oat milk and I wasn't willing to take the last drop from the bottle and risk getting sick. I will come back again and write a better review 😉“

“New favorite ice cream place! Amelie was so helpful. It was nice to be able to support such an awesome locally owned family business. Their hours vary so I would recommend stopping by if you’re in the area even if google says it’s closed.“

“Took myself on a little breakfast date, there was plenty of warm seating despite having a line of people. I got a vanilla cortado and the egg sandwich. Both really pleasantly surprised me. I am picky everything, but this was just what I wanted! I will be back here with friends for sure.“

“Service is great & food is Awsome, staff is really friendly, thank you for the great food and service. I'll recommend to freinds“

“Very good coffee nice service“

“Oxbow is often our weekend treat. Their bagels are my favorite in seattle, their pizza is perfect. Every other item is wonderful (although i think the tuna salad sandwich could use more tuna).

The coffee is really great, and a small local roaster.“

“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!“

“Thanks for sharing me guys! Love your coffee place! It’s a hot spot in #Calgary to run into cool people.“

“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.“

“Good not great Persian food but not as expensive either. Wonderful little family owned restaurant that is sure to fix that Persian craving you might be having. I enjoy this place when I go. There are better in the area, but at the same time, you will pay an arm and a leg for what you get. This place is a solid 4 of 5 stars.“

“Excellent food and coffee - they (easily) talked me into a pistachio croissant and it was a great decision!! 5+ star service as well

It was a nice quiet place to work or study on a Saturday morning.

The property itself might not be the coziest cafe, a little industrial, but they've made the most with it, with lots of plants, books and nice music

I think a little outdoor seating or a cozy armchair would be a nice touch!“

“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! 😂“

“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!“

“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!“

“Nice place,good service,good food“

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

“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.“

“The breakfast sandwiches always hit the spot & the fact I can order one when I wake up after 1pm no matter the day is 👌🏼
They have this Padan or Pandan coffee…I chugged it the first time & was so wired I had to hit the park across the street. Coffee is spectacular.
No bad encounter with the staff all of my interactions have been filled with kindness & they are very observant which feels safe & appreciated, someone’s being strange? I’d trust they’re already on top of it.
Seems like it’s filled with locals which is also nice to see ppl called by name.
I will say, in the times I’ve been in the tables are…well used & with the amount of people working sending someone out to touch up the tables with a sanitizer wipe would be nice. To be fair it’s not like I see any of the staff just standing around, their hands seem full.
Anyway appreciate a very well solid local coffee shop. This is a gold mine.“

“One of my favorite coffee shops! The latte is always delicious, and everyone here is so friendly. I used to study at the nearby library and would come here for a latte whenever I needed a break. Such a cozy place with lots of good memories for me. And here’s a little secret — they also have one of my favorite books, Spirited Away. That makes this place even more special to me. Highly recommend!“

“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.“

“This is my safe haven as a creative with celiac. The food is incredible and full of unique flavors, a rarity when it comes to gluten free. The general atmosphere is always so friendly and cosy, I love stopping by for a quick bite or hanging out getting some work done while snacking on a spam musubi. Thank you Yeobo <3“

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

“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.“

“Best strawberry matcha in Seattle! They make a real strawberry puree in house. It tastes like real strawberries (because it is!) and is delicious! All of the drinks at Atulea are excellent and customizable. The baristas are all friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. The vibes are also good here. I love coming here for 1:1 meetings or just a cozy place to get some work done. Atulea is a staple in the Capitol Hill neighborhood and I look forward to supporting them for a long time to come!“

“Incredible local breakfast and coffee spot barely a block from Cal Anderson. Not only is the coffee good and the breakfast sandwich delicious, the staff are always kind, welcoming, and warm PLUS they're the solid kind of people who always ask if you want hot sauce. 10 out of 10“

“For my money, this is the tastiest coffee in Seattle. I used to get coffee here during the week when I lived closer; it is by far the best cafe in Downtown Seattle and perhaps the best in the whole city — I love it with my whole heart.“

“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.“

“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!“

“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.“

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

“Excelente servicio me encanta su atención“

“Cafe An'Clair is one of the best cafes I've ever been too! Definitely recommend paying them a visit 💜“

“I’m from Seattle and I love it when I finally stumble onto a place I should have known about a long time ago. (eyes rolling!)

It was a unique experience watching the owner make hand rolled ice cream in front of me and the conversation was easy and I learned a few things. Always welcome!

The space is large enough for groups but cozy with a warm vibe. If you drive there, no worries as it is a hidden gem in a well maintained neighborhood. Free parking is abundant.

With all that being said, what will keep me coming back is the product. The ice cream base is made fresh twice a day and the add-ins are all worth trying. Fresh fruit or if the mood is right, fruity pebbles.

I’m going to work my way through the menu until I’ve tried them all. I don’t care if summer is over. I’ll be eating this year round with one of their authentic Turkish coffees on the side!“

“The best coffee shop in Queenanne area!! James the owner it’s a great person!! This coffee shop is my favorite in Seattle“

“Turkish eggs, are the best in Edmonds! PB power bowl 🥣 rocks too. Todd“

“The food here is incredible
I also didnt realize I'd go out of my way to buy a side of their house made pickles. Their food is so damn good, I wish I could eat it every day!
I gave this place 4 stars only because its really expensive.
To be fair they give you quite a large serving for what you pay, but it was still hard to justify the price.
Regardless, as an occasional treat, their sandwiches are absolutely to die for 💙“

“Great hidden gem for drinks and casual Vietnamese food. We stopped by after a couple hours bowling across the street. It’s a pretty small cafe with limited amount of seating (approx 8 seats).

They have an extensive drinks menu and a few Vietnamese dishes for food. We all ordered banh mi and I went for the classic cold cut version. Also added an order of their fish sauce wings - a must get!

The sandwiches were great and came packed with both meat and veggies. The bread had a crunch but not enough to cut the inside of your mouth.

Before we left, I ordered their coconut coffee smoothie with boba as my dessert. It was too watery for my liking as I was hoping for a more smoothie/slushy consistency.“

“Was on the hunt for single origin & a bonus of getting a pourover. This checked all the boxes. Coffee was delicious and top tier. Be prepared to pay much higher prices likely paying for his space in a high rise in bellevue. Note coffee bag size, though getting top tier coffee. Learned after my visit he was a top roaster nationally.“

“Really fantastic breakfast biscuit sandwiches. And the staff are absolutely lovely - it didnt take many trips before they started recognizing me.

They also make in house, seasonal sauces for their lattes that really killer. I love their maple bar latte, and my partner loves the snickerdoodle (which I think are both year round) and their Pumpkin Spice Latte is the best one Ive ever had.“

“We just ate at Coyle’s Bakeshop for the first time and feel it is hands down the best bakery on Phinney Ridge. The pastries were so delicious and the service was excellent!“

“Came into gearhouse for a quick coffee and was delighted by the friendly baristas Nick and Sean. They both made my day by going above and beyond. Nick was more than willing to tell me about their community nights and gear membership. Will definitely be coming back here!!“

“I love this place. The atmosphere is wonderful with it's adorable tea pots and cups scattered about, little flower vases with fresh flowers, cute sugar bowls and creamers. The music has a lovely French vibe. The pastry case is beautiful and full. The exposed brick wall gives a fabulous earthy feel to an otherwise polished look.
The service is outstanding- I have been here multiple times and each time the servers are happy, competent, and helpful. They make you feel happy you are here and like they are just as happy to be here. An environment with happy servers makes a place feel so much more welcoming.
My one issue, that I would humbly request the owners consider changing, is the seating. They have about 7 tables. 3 are regular sit down tables with chairs. The other 4 are tall tables with tall chairs. I abhor tall tables and chairs, to the point that I normally will not go back to a place if there is even a chance I may have to sit at a tall table. I constantly have to adjust myself to stay in the chair, feel like I am going to fall getting in and out. They are also difficult for older people and people with disabilities. I do frequently have someone with me who has a physical disability and this can mean that sometimes we really can't go to places with tall tables and chairs because they literally can't safely sit in them. For this place, I have made an exception when I am by myself and have even sat at the dreaded tall tables because I love the atmosphere so much. But it does affect how often I can visit and how long I can stay, so I am hoping the owners chose to replace those tall tables with standard ones at some point in the future.“
