Very friendly staff. Caffé D'arte coffee is served there and it's very tasty :) They have a drive thru and a walk-up window. My only complaint is they charge .80 cents for plant-based milk alternatives which is usually a splash on a coffee or cold brew. I can see an up charge being reasonable for milk-based bevs like a latte or cappuccino but this is probably why I don't go to many of these coffee shops regularly. It sounds nitpicky, but when you slap on tax, tip and adding sugar charge to coffee, it makes the price jump significantly to be a regular visit and if you want to keep on a decent coffee budget. All in all, I'll still be a frequent visitor and support local Thanks for the friendly service

Ordered a latte and cappuccino. Both cups of coffee were very watery and had no flavor. One of the worst coffees I've ever had not just in Seattle but nationwide. The store itself was a tiny window and the menu was difficult to read and poorly organized. The service was also extremely subpar to round out a mediocre coffee experience. Save yourself time and money and just get a cup of coffee from McDonald's

There are not enough good and wonderful things I can say about this place! Kj and all the other baristas there are wonderful! The coffee is always delicious and on point they have great food choices! Going somewhere first thing in the morning, and having people be fun, kind and then handing you a delicious cup of coffee is a rare thing..... unless you go to Kjs! Love you guys!!

cute little coffee shop that also has a drive through. i love their seasonal flavors. the coffee is a bit expensive. their workers are super nice and friendly.

We live really close so we come here a lot. Yeah the drive thru is nowhere near as fast as Starbucks, so don’t come here in a hurry. Otherwise, consistently great coffee, great selection of rotating seasonal drinks, and great customer service. I think it’s perfect for a lazy Sunday.

The girl at the drive up window was rude. I said blue lotus with blue Raz and coconut and she put regular raspberry so when I got the drink it was purple and I asked her is this blue lotus...are you sure and she offered to remake it and I told her normally it's blue because it's blue raspberry and blue Lotus and she told me no I said raspberry. She made it but told me she would have to charge me twice if this happens again and I told her I could pay five times the point is I said blue raspberry and she had to cop an attitude, the whole entire transaction she had an attitude. I don't typically go here because normally I get my drink before I come to work but I have been there a few times between my shifts as a bus driver because it's close to my work but I will never go back now! you're barista!!! you shouldn't have an attitude like that. if you don't like your job, why do you work there!

Kj's has the best coffee drinks and the nicest staff. The cake pops are amazing too! This is my go-to Saturday morning coffee spot. The chocolate covered espresso beans are such a nice touch!

This a great coffee stand, my favorite in the area (honestly, my favorite in the state). I can take my dog on a nice walk here, see some friendly faces, get some excellent coffee and feel good about supporting a local business instead of a mega corporation. They have creative seasonal drinks, most recently they had a fundraiser for Toys for Tots with pictures with Santa and food and drinks specials that was quite delightful. I hope they are here for awhile, I know I'm not alone in knowing they are a lovely addition to the neighborhood.

TLDR: My girlfriend and I had a perfect experience. Would recommend.Best coffee experience I had in Seattle. The vibe was cozy, local, and friendly. We tried the holiday flavors of Frosty Nog and Holly Jolly Matcha. We were shocked by all the questions she asked us in a good way. She made sure that our coffee was just right and showed that they knew their stuff.While we were waiting for our coffee, we talked about holiday plans, and it legit felt like we were local regulars.We had our drinks, and idk if you've ever had a double take at your coffee. Like you drink it and then drink it another time just to make sure you just drunk what you had drank, but it was amazing. Temperature was just right to drink right away, coffee was creamy and smooth, the matcha HUGGED my tongue.All in all, a perfect experience. Would totally recommend and bring friends who are visiting to know Seattle coffee.

Brown haired woman making my coffee was rude and condensing to me when asking questions about their coffee would not recommend coming back

Update — I moved to Mountlake Terrace and still drive to Kj's when I want a coffee even though there are several others much closer :) Kj's is the best!2022: Several times a week, I drive past three other drive-thru coffee stands and an additional 5 minutes from my house to get my coffee from KJ's. Enough said :)

Fun seasonal specials! On Friday they have a $40 prepay deal to load up your balance and get a fully punched coffee card. Haven't tried the food.

Mid coffee, incredibly slow drive thru. They appear focused on serving walk ups and chatting with customers. Totally fine but for quick coffee runs I’ll be sticking with Java Jane down the road!

Great spot. Nice baristas, good service, fair prices, and excellent coffee. Highly recommend this spot. 10 times better than Sbucks.
