Arête Coffee Bar

Comment on the food, not the coffee.

We ordered a gluten free sandwich ~$17. It took 20 mins to make (clearly the team isn't staffed well enough). The gluten free bread was still frozen on the sandwich and was incredibly dry (it's hard to find good gluten free bread I know, but at least defrost it/heat it up).

If your looking for gluten free options try somewhere else. (Hopefully the coffee is better!)

Great place, great staff, great food & coffee, dog friendly, cute patio, plenty of parking, it's the best place. Plus, having the store next door is super convenient for last minute needs before a hike or a ride.

Very friendly. Decent prices. Tasty lattes and one of the only spots in town with Hemp Milk which is my favorite.

Nice coffee shop within a short driving distance from the popular trailheads. Plenty of books about climbing, hiking and backpacking Washington, Oregon and some other states. Located next door to the outdoor shop.

Great vibes great coffee

Nice little cozy place inside another shop. It has most eclectic books wrt climbing, skiing etc. The coffee (cubano - if you like your espresso shot with sugar) + latte (bourbon) and eatables are all well within your reach unlike the seattle area coffee shops who are reaching the double digits. Service is nice, seating place exists outside and pets friendly. Overall good place to escape and forget the world around.

Nice atmosphere and staff, but the coffee was bad. Not as bad as Starbucks, but my wife thought the cappuccino was undrinkable, and my espresso made me cringe at every sip. Good if you like very sugary syrupy drinks that bury the coffee, but not for coffee freaks.

Cozy coffee shop with amazing vegan options and epic mountain views! We got the vegan breakfast burrito, vegan breakfast sandwich, and vegan chocolate chip banana bread. Highly recommend!

Pretentious menu but poorly executed. Staff is not rude but you get the typical Seattle cold. Decent stop when driving on I90 and need a meal, otherwise likely not worth a stop.

This little coffee shop is worth the stop and slight detour for grub and coffee when driving by North Bend. I will definitely return to try the rest of the menu!

If you have allergies or dietary restrictions, triple check your food here! The last two times I've come here they have added things I'm allergic to to my sandwich, I paid for upgrade to a bagel add turkey and asked for no cheese. The first time, they brought out the sandwich with no cheese but neither of the upgrades. When they remade it, it came out WITH cheese but without the turkey I paid for. I'm allergic to dairy. I didn't ask them to make it a third time. The cashier was very nice about it and gave me a $10 gift card, but the kitchen staff was extremely rude. I ended up leaving without being able to eat anything. If you don't have any dietary restrictions, the food is good - my husband enjoyed his sandwich.
