I have worked in Ballard for 24 years how have I missed this gem? The coffee was amazing. The best I have had in along time. I loved the mandarin orange bread.

Seattle's best coffee. Cafe Bambino has the best coffee period. This place is a true hidden gem. Highly recommended for the great drinks, service, and merchandise. The staff is friendly and helpful. Cozy seating is outside but covered. If you want great coffee, go here.

Always delicious quality coffee and friendly service. Tons of options to customize your drink that you won’t find in your average sbux.

7 plus dollars for a quad Americano…way way over priced for a regular tasting coffee.

Great coffee and friendly staff. I'm sad to see espresso price increases in the last few months, $4 for a double shot of espresso or $4.35 for an americano

Great people, fun sign, pretty good coffee, pretty darned good breakfast sandwiches, and a nice patio. Prices are on the high side. If prices were a bit lower or coffee was a bit tastier, I'd be back more frequently. As it is, I'll still definitely stop by a few times a month.
Nice little coffee shop with great coffee beans from Italy

Super cute spot, friendly staff, and solid coffee! Stopped by for an 8oz mocha and it hit the spot. Easy location to walk to and upon arriving I saw QR codes where you can view their menu and order online. Seemed like most folks placed their order online and were stopping by just to pick up. I'll definitely order ahead next time - the site seemed pretty intuitive and easy to use. Cool spot!

Went up to the window to order but saw QR codes everywhere stating "view menu and order online" (there is no other menu to look at) so stepped aside to start this process to then have the woman working ignore me and my girlfriend to help someone that was sitting down and arrived after us at the window. Finished ordering online to then have my girlfriend's and this other person's drink arrive 5 drinks ahead of mine. When we asked where my mocha was, the barista gave us a dirty look and said he was working on it then. The mocha had minimal flavor and needed to be adjusted after trying. Main staple since 1928 but idk how or why with this level of customer service.
