50 Best Coffee Shops in Seattle

“The black sesame foam for the Gloomy Matcha has me in a chokehold…. I tried recreating it at home, but it comes nowhere near as close to what you can get here. I came right at opening time before my flight took off because I just had to get another Gloomy Matcha 😂 it’s THAT good. Wish we had an Aroom on the east coast 😭

Right down the street is a bakery, which is so nice! Come to Aroom for your morning coffee/matcha, then head to Sea Wolf for some bread.“

“friendly staff, great coffee. Will definitely be back for more.“

“Such a lovely and convenient location. Helpful, friendly service. A simple yet elegant atmosphere ♥️☕️“

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

“Delicious food, perfect tea, and a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. I love the Edmonds location because I can walk there from my home! Cannot recommend highly enough! Five out five stars ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️“

“The barista’s are always welcoming and warm. Their lattes are dreamy! The pastries are fantastic!“

“This was my mom's and I’s last cafe hop in Seattle before leaving, and it was worth it! We arrived right when it opened due to our flight. I unfortunately did not get anything; however, my mom ordered a hot decaf Americano and it was love at first sight. She said it was VERY good, and she was sad we didn’t come sooner because its very close to the place we stayed at. It was so good that we decided to buy four coffee bags! (we turned around the second we left😅👀). I recommend it–its very close to the transit station.

Overall, the experience was cosy and vibey–please try it out if you are in the area‼️“

“At Boon Boona, sharing a daily cup is about more than just caffeine—it’s about slowing down and connecting. When you choose their coffee, you’re supporting a more equitable coffee economy. They work exclusively with African producers and exporters, ensuring a greater share of profits goes to women-owned farms and communities often overlooked. Their cafes are designed with you in mind—welcoming spaces where you can gather, discover local artists, support nonprofits, and enjoy pop-ups from the small businesses you love.“

“We loved the unique sweet taste and the look of the coffee. Great combo!“

“As this was my first time visiting. I can say I will definitely go back again and again. The very delicious donuts. Thank you for all your hard work in creating this staple in the city.“

“My favorite starbucks by far! There’s great staff who are extremely friendly and nice. The drinks are very well made. The atmosphere is warm and friendly with plenty of nice people and regulars in groups! They are very pet friendly and you can meet a large range of very friendly dogs! There is lots seating indoor and out with heated seats outside. The location is perfect and they are always fast to create your order.“

“great service delicious food ♡“

“The raspberry pistachio eclair was the best we have ever had. A light touch of sweet with a delicious and creamy center. Absolutely exceptional! and the Americano was beautifully balanced and rich. This quaint shop is my new go to when in West Seattle!“

“Best Mac n Cheese in the city!“

“Delicious food, fun vintage roomy space, public house feel, friendly“

“Great friendly service. Warm smiles. Wonderful vibe. Everything I’ve tried there is yummy.“

“I got the 12 oz Coffeeholic Dream, and I really enjoyed the flavor. The reason why I’m giving 5 stars is because of Molly, whom I had a great conversation with about Seattle. I recently moved here, and Molly gave me wonderful recommendations for rainy weather gear. I appreciate meeting nice and kind people in Seattle.“

“Best ice cream (gelato). Better than Italian in Italy. Thank you for Bringing back mango habanero sorbet. WOW! Your new chocolate milkshakes are making us very, very happy! Best pistachio, hazelnut… You name it their’s is the best. These nut gelatos are not made out of flavored surgery syrups. They are made out of puréed nuts. No ice cream in Seattle can compare.“

“During my morning walk, I popped into Overcast Coffee for my regular iced latte. It was anything but overcast! The coffee was spot on and the service was quick. The cafe was inviting so I stayed to read a bit. I definitely enjoyed my morning while at Overcast Coffee.“

“Very cute bakery with tasty matcha and a decent breakfast taco (good corn tortilla) given that they have no real kitchen. I loved sitting outside in the sun and relaxing today. I would definitely stop by again if I were in the area. There were a lot of pastries I'd like to try and didn't have the chance.“

“The coffee is curated beautifully and not over-roasted. Deep yet subtle taste notes across their regional offerings of whole beans and brews.“

“Pastries from Cafe Besalu!“

“Kind of expensive but totally worth it. The froth on the hot drinks is my favorite. Lasts a lot time as you drink it and makes me happy (: good, spaced out atmosphere (plenty of seating).

Dietary restrictions: There are milk replacements available for 75 cents“

“Love Pilgrim! Delicious coffee!“

“Best coffee I have had in Seattle hands down.“

“If you love and crave amazing coffee, this is your crack dealer!!! It’s sooooo good. These people are the best of Seattle! Friendly, cool, great product and service. Went back repeatedly! Located at the bottom of the driveway at Pike Place Market! They have water for your dog too! See? Full service!“

“This is by far the best coffee I have had in Seattle! Their drinks are so good and unique, it’s always hard to decide what to get but I love the cinnamon phin. The staff is extremely nice and welcoming, this place should be on a Michelin guide!“

“Amazing place! Highly recommend“

“🙂👌❤☕ super bien gracias muy rico. cafeezra“

“While I have never visited in person, Broadcast Coffee is by far my most coveted coffee. I absolutely love their coffee! From Columbia Pensilvania, to Columbia Los Angeles, and now Autumn Blend, I can't get enough of this delicious coffee! I LOVE every single coffee I try. I am definitely not afraid of purchasing a full pound of coffee that I haven't first sampled!“

“Have been wanting to come here for a while and finally came by for a pre-work coffee. The barista made my espresso perfectly and was great to chat with. The vibes in here are spectacular, not too loud, free Wi-Fi, and I love the upstairs seating area!

There weren’t many food options left but I think I just visited too late in the day!

Will definitely be back here very soon.“

“Fun vibe... great lattes featuring foam art.... I appreciate that! baked goods are delicious too.“

“La Copa has the best coffee in the area. Their staff understands the science and art of pulling espresso shots and their machine is calibrated properly so your drink is well made. They have a nice variety of food options made on premises and everything is delicious. Our favorites are the breakfast burritos (huge and yummy), the coffee cakes (flavors rotate), GF banana bread w/ chips, the danishes, the marzuka bars, the cookies, and the turkey pesto panini. The owners and staff are hard-working and kind. They care about their locals and the newbies. Do yourself a favor and stop in. You deserve it!“

“Amazing coffee and reasonable price“

““Muse” drink is to die for!“

“Went here because Fodor’s rated this as the best coffee in Seattle- and wow it did NOT disappoint! I had a shot of espeesso by itself- the crema was perfectly smooth and sweet. I also had an iced caffe caramel with hazelnut flavor which was worth every penny and did the job! Highly recommend this place to anyone! The baristas were very friendly and made us feel welcome and offered a shot of soda as a chaser for the espresso too even.“

“Bought a bag of Morning Sun whole beans. Package says it's a darker roast. Darker than what? Water? We tried it three mornings in a row. With no other whole beans in the house, I had to switch to instant coffee. Morning Sun is NOT a dark roast. Sorry to say I was very disappointed.“

“Seriously the best coffee in Sesttle and awesome pastries too“

“Lovely cozy spot with friendly staff, nice music that’s relaxing and not too loud! I see people coming in to chat w friends, bring their kids, work online, do casual business lunches, etc. nice to feel like it’s a neighborhood gathering spot

Dietary restrictions: They have almond and oat milk“

“Excellent Starbucks destination! I love taking our friends and family here when they visit as part of the signature Seattle experience. Unlike regular locations, they have their own bakery, gorgeous iron ovens, and they serve alcoholic drinks. They will make your drink with an AeroPress, chemex, pour-over, Clover, or a few other options. Their whiskey barrel-aged cold brew is amazing. My gluten-eating friends and family tell me that the bakery items are incredible. Being fresh baked and with high quality ingredients. This is a great place to visit, and a place I go to again and again.“

“!!!I Love this place, don't know why its called Fresh Flours, when it should be called Nails, Hair, Coffee & Paws🥳🏆❤️💯

Wheelchair accessibility: Im a Caregiver and my Client has a big scooter chair, that has not problem navigating in and out of this place 🏆 She Loves it here and so do I!!!“

“Good coffee and pastry. I had a cappuccino with soy milk and a gluten-free marionberry biscuit. Both were good! I love the atmosphere with the different rooms and plenty of seating at the outdoor bar. Service was good, there is often a small line to order but the staff is very friendly and helpful.“

“A cozy shop in Mt. Baker with wonderful coffee and a great selection of pastries.“

“Forget that other company's stake on the claim. Realfine is the best part of waking up.“

“The Lavender Mocha was sublime. Period
The barista was lovely in both energy and appearance, but the energy of the room was a little stuffy. I was low key kinda uncomfortable until a lady came in with her kids and lightened the room considerably“

“excellent coffee ! best hazelnut latte in Seattle! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 10 stars out of 5“

“first time trying lavender italian soda. so refreshing and perfect amount of sweetness. wouldn't think to try that flavor without seeing as a menu item and i'm glad i did!“

“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.“

“Wide variety of doughnuts. Various different unique flavors. Also have allergy sensitive and gluten free choices. With various drink choices as well. Super friendly, very clean, great value, very tasty and lgbt friendly. Would definitely return.😊🍩“

“Some of the best coffee in Seattle, just across the Fremont Bridge.
Brewed with beans sourced from top roasters around the country, the coffee is rich and flavorful. The space is open and welcoming, with plenty of seating. Street parking is available. Definitely worth a visit!“
