If you like dark roast coffee this is pretty smooth. Croissants are very good.

Cool vibe, cool employee, a delicious drink I can't find anywhere else (iced London fog) and gluten free snacks. Quality spot, worth a stop

I cannot say enough about this fantastic coffee shop. Kendra (owner) is the pinnacle of customer service and her staff is so welcoming. The coffee (Lighthouse) and the sandwiches/burritos are delicious.

I have driven past more times than I can count and am so happy I decided to stop by.

Important note for early birds… they are open at 630am, a hard find for local Seattle coffee shops.

Don’t wait…stop in and see why. This gem is worth every visit.

One of the best coffeeshops i’ve been to in Seattle. The barista who was also the cook made amazing coffee and the burrito special was dank. I sat down and did my work for a few hours and the vibes were good, too!! It’s what an espresso bar should be. Highly recommended if you’re ever anywhere near this part of Seattle.

Kendra the owner is the sweetest, down to earth person I know..she comes from the southwest as I do and I love that we have that connection ( a home away from home). The crew is always so welcoming to me and my 7yr old. The little things matter by pouring her apple juice into a to go coffee cup means the world too, her to feel included like we’re sharing a coffee. I feel lucky to get to start my morning off with such great company which is truly a hard thing to find in Seattle.The food is so delicious a filling, the coffee is always just right. Thank you Monkey Grind for being my hidden gem!

This is one of the calmest cafés I've been in ever. Very pleasantly surprised by how cozy this place is. The Mexican Mocha is delicious! The bread is very soft. And the person who works there is kind and gets to know their customers. Time slows down in here and your stress melts away. It's a real treat in the morning, the sunlight comes into the café and the music is soft and relaxing.Thank you for a lovely experience and delicious food! :) ?
