Found a hair baked into the bread of my sandwich :/ On the bright side now I know it’s fresh made.
The coffee was delightful and the service was incredible we chatted while he was making my coffee and he made me feel super welcome.
I got the Aztec mocha and the coffee was dark with notes of malt, and the spice and chocolate levels matched the bean very well.
Highly recommend stopping by for a coffee and the barista definitely knows their coffee
I come to Fonte every week and Steve is fantastic! He knows my order as soon as I walk in and is incredibly kind! The coffee is great and I highly recomend their sandwiches.
I've been coming here everyday for the last two years. Love the coffee and the people!
Great coffee and the largest biscotti I have ever seen.
Amazing breakfast and coffee!
Friendly barista - he was the plus.
Mid food - this was the average.
Horrible matcha - this was the low.
Steve is such a joy, he had me picking Fonte for my morning coffee every day during my trip! The coffee is great, the sausage sandwich is HUGE (and tasty!) and I highly recommend!
I coach at the gym next door, and I come here pretty much as my daily routine. All their pastries are made in-house, and the service is always delightful. Steve is a standout and always love to have a small chat with him - and he let me know more about the pastries which I’m always scarfing down. Recommend!

Okay, I hated the coffee but I might go back. Here’s why. Their morning-shift barista is another-level nice. I engaged in a conversation with him, shared that I was new in the area, and on and on. He got me a bag of beans as a welcome gift to the area. That absolutely made my day!
Now coffee. I ordered cappuccino. I didn’t like the taste of the beans. Not ordering coffee again.
There was plenty of sitting place, which was nice. I could grab a tall table and work for a couple hours. The WiFi didn’t connect successfully, but I didn’t bother to ask them what the case was.
I believe they have good food, because people seemed to go there for food and everything smelled super good.
I appreciate it when people are kind and empathic; makes me feel human again. ❤️ We need more of it.

Popped into Fonte today just to grab a quick coffee and was welcomed by the loveliest barista! They offer some amazing flavors they’ve crafted themselves. He was kind enough to treat me to something from their bakery since it was my first visit to the cafe, which was absolutely delightful and such a thoughtful gesture. The Turkish tea was bursting with cardamom—a truly outstanding flavor and easily one of the best I've enjoyed in the city.

Good coffee and service. Lots of space for working at the cafe or for a grab and go. Learned about the difference between a dry and wet

I wandered into Fonté today and had a wonderful experience! The barista, Steve, was super friendly, the vibe was fun and the music was rad! He made a perfect Caffe Breve even though it was slammed with customers and did it all with a smile.With so many coffee shops to choose from in Seattle, I'm glad I found Fonté. I'll definitely be back!

The place looked shiny and hip, which initially drew us in. Their online photos were quite appealing. However, our experience quickly soured due to staff hygiene issues. One of the workers, who appeared to be unwell, was making muffins and continuously wiped his nose with his arm. This raised serious concerns about the cleanliness of the food preparation process.Despite its fancy presentation, the food at Fonte Coffee was a letdown. It seemed like everything was just masked with excessive sugar and grease. The dishes felt pre-made and lacked any fresh or authentic taste, giving the impression of being hastily microwaved before being served in a fancy box.The overall experience was underwhelming. The modern and stylish appearance of the place and their attractive photos might draw you in, but the reality is a stark contrast. The lack of attention to hygiene and the poor quality of food overshadowed any aesthetic appealI would not recommend Fonte Coffee. Their focus seems to be more on appearance rather than the quality and safety of their food. The experience was disappointing and not worth a repeat visit.
