I used to come here a lot, now that I’ve returned I see they’ve added a kiosk, theres almost no interaction with staff and no option to order in person. Won’t be back until it’s removed
Good iced latte with oat milk and great study vibes with a nice water view on a sunny day
I buy a coffee here every once in a while. It’s a nice place!

Nice interior space but limited seating and packed with students studying. Coffee was terrible and you have to order from a kiosk that's very klunky.

Nice little cafe by university of Washington with views of the marina. I had an espresso and my wife had a raspberry cappuccino. By American and especially university coffee shop standards, the espresso was great, though by international standards it was just good. Cappuccino was fine with syrup, but needs syrup to be good.

The baristas are terribly slow at this location. I waited 15 minutes and there was no one else waiting. This happened twice and I don’t get it

Burrito was so small and microwaved, only tasted like black pepper. I think it cost $10 somehow. Coffee I actually poured out, very bad flavor. You order from a kiosk although staff was friendly when I did speak with them to confirm I was grabbing the right food and drink items. The music was incredibly loud inside and outside there were only two very small tables awkwardly close together unless I was missing more outside seating somewhere. I would not return.

Food was solid, not exceptional. No complaints on food and coffee. HOWEVER, on a Saturday morning, place was empty with multiple staff members, yet the tables and chairs were filthy, the floor was filthy, and we were met with unfriendly and not particularly helpful service. It was a disappointing experience, we have enjoyed their coffee before.

I like to go out for coffee or tea to get some human interaction, since I can obviously make it cheaper at home. Being pointed to the kiosk and seeing that they've axed half the staff was super lame. Also I wanted an ice tea and the pointer told me to order tea on the kiosk. So if I order a 12 oz tea an I getting 2 ounces of tea and 10 of ice? Or 12 ounces of tea over ice? I didn't know and I asked the kiosk but it didn't answer.
So I walked to Solstice which has 4 people working, who answered my ice tea question and who were rad.
Bottom line - axing half your staff isn't cool; Toast ain't local; Sea Fab is sadly off my list.

A cool pace that is located along the dock where you can see boats outside the window. The cafe has some simple meal options as well as a variety of drinks. I had a tea lemonade here and it was decently made. The vibe here is nice and chill with people studying and for a small get together.

The kiosk is difficult to navigate and annoying. As a paying customer, I don't want to have to work for my order. I used to enjoy talking with the baristas and asking for their drink suggestions and now it feels disconnected and takes away from the fun atmosphere I used to love about SeaFab.
I want to talk to somebody when I order food and drink. Please bring back jobs.
Seafab has been a favorite study spot of mine for the past 3 years at UW but the recent addition of the kiosk screen makes me sad. I love the baristas there and do not want to order on a screen, searching through options for 5 minutes.

Afordable prices, free and easy parking, friendly and informed staff, beautiful interior decorating, lots of seating, good music, view of the water. Apparently lousy management but not on Sundays! Idk what else to say, I really like this place. Def my favorite coffee spot in the area.
