20 Best Coffee Shops in Poulsbo

“A hidden gem! Some of the best baked goods in Poulsbo and an innovative menu with consistent favorites and rotating soups and specials.“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ As a coffee enthusiast who has sampled brews across the US and Europe, I can confidently say Hot Shots Java stands out for more than just its excellent coffee. Their commitment to cleanliness and safety is unparalleled—I've never seen a coffee shop that cleans its air vents daily! This attention to detail speaks volumes about their dedication to customer well-being. Clean air vents are crucial for improving air quality, reducing fire risks, and ensuring food safety. It's reassuring to know that Hot Shots takes this seriously, preventing the spread of harmful bacteria like E. coli and salmonella and reducing the risk of mold and food spoilage. Beyond their impeccable cleanliness, Hot Shots Java offers a warm, inviting atmosphere in the heart of historic downtown Poulsbo. Their organic, fair-trade coffee is custom roasted locally, and they use top-quality ingredients in all their offerings. It's no wonder they've been voted Best Coffee and Baristas in North Kitsap for over 8 years. Their commitment to the community through local sourcing and support of the Fishline food bank is admirable. For a coffee experience that combines great taste with peace of mind, Hot Shots Java is the place to go. Highly recommended!“

“amazing experience!! super good latte and great customer service“

“Nordic Coffee carries Cafe d'Arte, fine beans and roast, the only Americano I will drink, and terrific customer-centered service!“

“This little coffee stand is an absolute gem. It’s small and quaint, the kind of place that feels instantly welcoming. The coffee itself is excellent and clearly made with care—but what really makes this spot special is the owner.

Kristie has personality and charm, it feels less like ordering a drink and more like catching up with an old friend. Whether it’s her genuine smile, or the way she seems to remember everyone’s “usual,” the stand has a heartbeat that bigger coffee shops just can’t replicate.

If you’re looking for more than just a caffeine fix, this is the place. Highly recommend stopping by!!!“

“Best coffee shop in Kitsap county!“

“They are by far my favorite place in Kitsap county to get coffee definitely better then Starbucks & Dutch Bros & Austin Chase Coffee“

“I am way on the other side of the US, and I completely recommend the coffee and just the experience you get from the entire staff of Caffe Cocina!

“Best coffee on this side of the Mississippi River!! Hands down

Kid-friendliness: Espresso gone wild is one of the greatest places I've ever been to in the best coffee on the peninsula. I brought the whole family there. Grandma on both sides of the family and my 15 kids from 3 past marriages.“

“I love when I can get a perfect coffee! thank you so much for having awesomely trained people working for you!!“

“Best coffee shop in Kitsap county!“

“I personally love green star coffee. The girls there are still friendly we all know each other by name they know what I drink I don't even have to order..... They Rock“

“Great food and a great cause❤️❤️❤️“

“A Starbucks is a Starbucks. Loud inside bad design . If you want a industrial loft atmosphere you get tons of echo from people talking and Baristas yelling . Not a relaxing kind of place. They play music but it is hard to hear. Grest coffee and goodies .waitresses are always very pleasant. Price. High for what you get.“

“Great team very welcoming came out and brought us all of our drinks so we could enjoy the waterfront!“

“I ordered the "Ring of Fire" sandwich online and picked it up. The order was ready on time, and it tasted delicious. The chedar jalapeños bagel paired well with the siracha mayo, turkey, and bacon. Will definitely be ordering this sandwich again.“

“I just now ran in for the restroom while my man went through DT for our drinks. The restrooms were CLEAN! Lobby- CLEAN! Parking lot: clean! Accuracy of order: CLEAN! Connection at window: 110%! I’m an ex Starbucks partner, this location is spot on. (Pictured- Tall Vanilla Bean Frap, 1 Blonde shot, caramel walls & topping, with whip)“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I’ve been to hundreds of Starbucks locations across the country, and I can confidently say I’ve never met a staff more genuinely friendly than the one here.

Dale Carnegie once said, “A person’s name is to that person the sweetest sound in any language.” I thought of that the moment they greeted me by name—after only two visits! It completely caught me off guard in the best way.

Since then, I’ve stopped in at different times of day, and the experience has been consistently excellent. There’s always a steady stream of customers, yet somehow never an unreasonable wait and never a single mistake in my orders (which, for a Starbucks veteran like me, is rare!).

As someone new to the area, I’m still learning its rhythms and nuances, but the warm welcome I’ve received here has genuinely made it easier to feel at home. The team here sets the gold standard for customer service—proof that kindness and consistency never go out of style. ☕✨“

“Folks, this is not a “simple food” place. This is downtown Seattle food all the way! Many of us from Poulsbo have become accustomed to eating in the city and this place satisfies. The food from there is more complicated—I would say more interesting—than what most of us grew up eating. Field House has that kind of elevated menu. It’s a very casual setting offering outstanding menu choices. For those looking to feed their more refined palette (aka: big city transplants), this is your place. This menu was created by a Seattle chef and takes advantage of the high-end, delicious ingredients that Town and Country offers. Even their burgers (Wagyu Beef? Are you kidding me?) are amazing. Nice fries included. Tell me a decent place ANYWHERE that has that level of burger at Red Robin prices. For drinkers, (not me) they offer beer on tap and I think wine, too. I’ve been there four times: Had the Blue Bacon Burger twice and the Bbq brisket sandwiches once, and their Fish and Chips. Soo freaking good. If you want your grandma’s diner-style cooking, you need a different place. But, if you are into heightened flavors like house-made garlic aioli and arugula on your burger and house-made smoky-tangy or pineapple infused bbq sauce for your brisket sandwich, you should give this place a shot. BTW, they have a killer artisan Root Beer on tap, too. YUM. “…AND a Root Beer Float, Please. ”“
