Excellent coffee. The baristas and even the regulars will know your name in a matter of weeks and they will keep your heart thumping with good energy and caffeine. If you come in right at open they might be a little…. Quick? But thats show biz

I've been coming to Venture Coffee for about a year now. An incredible place! Awesome ambiance, awesome quality coffee. I recommend it to most people in the Ballard area who are looking.
My only complaint is that sometimes they default to disposable paper cups which cheapens the experience and feels like unnecessary waste.

I typically get a mocha which is usually pretty good. Today I decided to get a peppermint mocha and it tasted like watered down peppermint sauce in warmed milk. Absolutely disgusting and had to dump it. The guy behind the counter was less than welcoming. However he's not the first of the staff who don't seem to really care whether or not they're there. The only reason I'm not giving a 1 star is because the tomato ricotta croissant was pretty good. In the future I think I'll just go a little out of my way to Larsen's bakery.

My favorite Ballard coffee shop. Great pastries and easy to park by. Nice set of tables inside to bring some weekend reading.
Friendly staff, nice neighborhood atmosphere with comfortable seating, excellent coffee.

Even the drip coffee was great! Sat down w coffee and warmed Chocolate croissant and then a slice of orange almond cake to go; yum! The staff was very friendly. Next time I'm in Ballard, I'll be back.
Rude customer service. Younger gentlemen with unkempt beard and hair was very sarcastic upon asking about cashless system. To add, they need to get some new couches and chairs. Stained and very gross.

Been in the neighborhood for 20 years. Always liked this location and tried the new place. Good food and coffee was decent albeit expensive (Heck Seattle is these days). The service I just found disappointing and abrasive. I know staffing and work is hard in Seattle these days and i empathize with people doing the best they can. They are quite disorganized in their preparation of drinks and when I asked a question they snapped rudely. I just assume positive intent with people not that customers are there to make your lives difficult. Really disappointed in the attitude of the staff and I'm not one to be a complainer. Wish you all the best and just hoping it was just someone having bad day. Will see next time i am in if this is just how they treat people.

Terrible coffee everytime. Amazing pastries. I've been here so much. Everyone is bad at pulling shots and no matter how many times I try ordering it, cappuccino is always burnt and over-foamed.
