“Came across Pollard while Googling local, small coffee roasters, and I'm so happy I did! Definitely one of our favorite coffees, been getting Pollard for a while now and it has never disappointed 😄 We always get compliments back when we gift Pollard coffee and their customer service is awesome! Have fun with the custom blend option, it's a nice feature, especially when giving as a gift ☕“

“Great coffee, history! the apothacary is amazing, a library, clothes, jewelry, & yummy organic food. what more could one ask for?“

“Delicious espresso made with love. Stay awhile and enjoy local banter as neighbors lament the latest island life. Pro tip: They offer homemade chorizo breakfast burritos & a plethora of baked goods from various island artisans. Burton Coffee Stand is the pearl of Vashon’s oyster. Yum!“

“As I brew my morning coffee here in Austin, TX—over a year after visiting Caffe Vino Olio—I find myself wishing for a cup of their coffee instead. Despite Seattle’s renowned coffee culture and all the great coffee I enjoyed there, Caffe Vino Olio stands out in my memory. Each morning, as I wait for my coffee to brew, I’m reminded of the smooth, rich flavor and the cozy, welcoming vibe of this charming cafe nestled in the heart of a beautiful island town. Their coffee wasn’t the only highlight—pairing it with one of their fresh, homemade bagels made for a cozy, quiet morning that I hope to return to one day.“

“Cute atmosphere, tons of lovingly-made food options, and yummy (and affordable) bubble tea! I would have loved to try some of the food but I had already eaten. The owner was so helpful about navigating the island, he was very kind. Thank you!“

“I have enjoyed the fine coffee and relaxed ambiance of Cafe Luna since it first opened.“

“The raspberry pistachio eclair was the best we have ever had. A light touch of sweet with a delicious and creamy center. Absolutely exceptional! and the Americano was beautifully balanced and rich. This quaint shop is my new go to when in West Seattle!“

“The smashwich breakfast sandwich is awesome, but all of their pastries are really good too.

Vegetarian options: Lots of vegetarian pastries. Several vegan options.

Dietary restrictions: Gluten-free and vegan pastry options, a few of both.“

“The barista’s are always welcoming and warm. Their lattes are dreamy! The pastries are fantastic!“

“I love this place. It has great food and great employees and is a real benefit to the community. Thanks for all the great food and a great place to enjoy my coffee!“

“This is by far the best coffee I have had in Seattle! Their drinks are so good and unique, it’s always hard to decide what to get but I love the cinnamon phin. The staff is extremely nice and welcoming, this place should be on a Michelin guide!“

“Fun vibe... great lattes featuring foam art.... I appreciate that! baked goods are delicious too.“

“Amazing coffee and reasonable price“

“Kimball Coffeehouse ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ On 5/16/24, I visited Kimball Coffeehouse in Gig Harbor, Washington. This coffeehouse has a great history, which I’ve included a link to in the comments. Kimball Coffeehouse has live music on the weekends. The evening I arrived, they were setting up for Open Mic Night. They roast their own coffee beans. They have an extensive menu that includes Breakfasts, Smoothies, Sandwiches, Flatbread Pizzas, Salads, Soups, Snacks, and Desserts. I ordered a Spring coffee drink called Bees Knees, which is a Lavender & Honey Latte. The flavor combination was a bit too subtle for me, but it was good. Next time, I will try something else. The woman sitting next to me ordered a BLT, which looked excellent! One of the things I really like about Kimball Coffeehouse is they seem to have a lot of regulars. Coffee shops like that are hard to find.  I look forward to visiting Kimball Coffeehouse the next time I’m in town.… Highly Recommended!!!“

“Amazing coffee and reasonable price“

“Fantastic food, vibes and service. Moored here in our boat and looked forward to going there each day. Thanks“

“Amazing baked good - fresh and tasty!! Can’t wait to try their soup and sandwiches. Visiting from out of town but have returned a number of times during my stay to the friendly, good neighbor atmosphere! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Excellent Starbucks destination! I love taking our friends and family here when they visit as part of the signature Seattle experience. Unlike regular locations, they have their own bakery, gorgeous iron ovens, and they serve alcoholic drinks. They will make your drink with an AeroPress, chemex, pour-over, Clover, or a few other options. Their whiskey barrel-aged cold brew is amazing. My gluten-eating friends and family tell me that the bakery items are incredible. Being fresh baked and with high quality ingredients. This is a great place to visit, and a place I go to again and again.“

“Service was great and my honey lavender latte was good. The lady who helped us order was kind and sweet. Appreciated her sweet disposition. I didn’t catch her name.“

“Friendly staff, best coffee and pastries. Fun place to paint.“

“Great coffee. Friendly service“

“I’m glad I finally dropped by here. I’ve heard great things about this place for years and I can verify it is all true!

It’s energizing seeing people with such passion about coffee and repairing equipment. Everyone speaks honestly and doesn’t try to upsell you on a machine that you don’t want or doesn’t fit your needs. From Chemex filters to commercial espresso machines, they have it all.

Highly recommended! Support local, invest in your machines and local coffee culture!“

“First visit here. Parking near. Nice sized menu. Cashier was very sweet. The food was so so good and refreshing. The salmon sandwich was chefs kiss! Fresh and tasty fish. My wife got the rancher and she said it was amazing. My strawberry kiwi slushie was really sweet so I let it water down a bit. But it was still really good. Definitely recommend and will return.“

“Forget that other company's stake on the claim. Realfine is the best part of waking up.“

“Amazing place, highly recommend it. The staff is always nice and friendly.
I normally get the Galaxy and it's delicious.
Especially if you need energy fast they are fast with making your drinks and the quality is amazing.“

“Yummy coffee and a cute spot! Definitely recommended“

“A great spot for a refreshing drink on your way to or from the Alki area. skip the corporate crud and support a small kiosk every chance you get!“

“Very cool vibe with great snacks and my favorite pinball machine!“

“Everything I’ve had from Brother Joe is delicious. The food, the coffee, all yummy! My favorite? The croissant BLAT with a fried egg added. It’s crunchy and warm and messy and juicy and is SO SO GOOD!! I think about and crave that sandwich all the time! Highly recommend!! ♥️“

“Came to visit town and it was so yummy! Got the ube ice cream and the ube cream puff. 10/10. Service was so kind and helpful!“

“Great experience!“

“Bought a bag of Morning Sun whole beans. Package says it's a darker roast. Darker than what? Water? We tried it three mornings in a row. With no other whole beans in the house, I had to switch to instant coffee. Morning Sun is NOT a dark roast. Sorry to say I was very disappointed.“

“Wonderful frappe’s, especially peanut butter & chocolate! I wish we had a William Patrick's Coffee Inc in Minneapolis. I guess I’ll just have to come back to Gig Harbor again soon…“

“Always love my daily visits for morning coffee! see what I mean... 💥❤️💥“

“Visited on a Sunday afternoon after a friend recommended this local spot in Burien.
We tried the bacon sandwich, $13 from the breakfast menu, and the Cuban melt $15 from the lunch menu.

While the café itself has a cozy and welcoming atmosphere, the food didn’t quite meet our expectations. The bacon sandwich felt a bit too small for the price, and the Cuban melt could have been much better if they had added some Dijon mustard to balance the richness of the mayo—it would have brought out the true flavor of a Cuban sandwich.

Staff were kind, and the space has a neighborhood charm, so I’d be open to coming back to try their pastries or coffee.“

“I am not sure how many other things they offer. They have baked goods and good coffee. I stop by for the coffee. Next time I’ll try something else. They have a very pleasant staff that puts up with me. Peter The Wizard of the Zapata Legions of the North.... and Chicano Bee Master of the North“

“The best Americano ☕️ that I have ever had, every time!! 😋“

“Sitting in my car shaking and crying, barely able to compose myself to drive right now. Those who frequent Auntie Irene's beware of the owner. She just yelled at me infront of the whole shop, about parking out front. It sent me into a anxiety riddened, ptsd fueled state. There were zero parking stalls when l pulled into the coffee shop. l was grabbing my one coffee and leaving. l would be there for 5 minutes maybe 10 at most. I parked snuggled up along the the flower bed north of the shop, in front of the rhodedendron/north of the deck. On the other side of the flower bed is parking stalls. Just to exactly detail where l was parked. Completely out of anyone's way. There is no posted sign saying "no parking here", nor is it a painted fire lane. If that were the case, of course l wouldn't park there. That's obvious. I was not blocking her drive thru window line or blocking either entrance to her shop. I wasn't in the way of people needing to back out ,since they have to turn the other way to exit. After placing my coffee order, an waiting about 5 minutes at a table, she came out of no where and reprimanded me like a child....She could have politely introduced herself and asked me to move. She never even told me who she was. For all l knew, she was a crazed lady bossing me around. No "hi", "hello" or "how are you?". She just marched up to me without identifying shes the owner and started in on me. I would have had zero problem being asked to move, if she had gone about it in a decent manner, that most "adults" are capable of. Her tone was egregious and severely uncalled for. Over the years, l have heard rumors about an aggressive, petite, blonde haired, older lady named Susie as the owner. That was the only reason l deduced this must be the owner, becuase like l stated she did not tell me who she was at all. But, l had only ever seen her maybe 3 times, in all the years I've been going there. I have never spoken to her or even had an one on one encounter with her. So, for her to treat me, complete stranger, who is paying for a comfortable place to enjoy coffee like this, this is wildly uncalled for. I'm a full grown adult mind you, though lve been told, l look young for my age. Even if l was young, it still would not make this encounter okay at all. l was so taken a back, l couldn't even mutter a reply to her. l ran out of the shop and immediately reparked my car. There were stalls open at this point. l had to smoke a cigarette to calm down before l went back in, it rattled me so badly. l was barely able to muster up the courage to go back in for my coffee, without feeling like l was going to start breaking out into tears, if l saw her or had to encounter her again to get my coffee. I came back in, and by then she was no where to be seen... She wasn't there to thank me for moving and understanding her concern. Nothing, she just disappeared. She ambush disciplined me and disappeared, which made it even weirder and more upsetting...Anyways, when l came back in the staff asked me where l went? l didn't want to tell them what happened, so l pretended like l didn't hear their question and barely got out a stiffled, whimper of a "thank you" to them. Rushing out of the shop before they had a chance to see me upset.. I didn't want them to think they were the reason l was in this clearly emotional state. They didn't do anything wrong, so l wasn't about to complain to them about their own boss.There would be nothing they could do about her actions, if she's in charge, ya know? When l got back to my car, l broke down in tears, past PTSD trauma flooding in. I've had experiences like this with some past elder women bosses, in my younger years. I've been subject to 3 very unprofessional older female boss's. Who, in over the years had treated me completely horribly and were very verbally abusive. One even grabbed my arm so hard she left bruising. All of them traumatizing me, using their p“

“Great food and amazing service!!!“

“The Vietnamese Coffee was- is the best coffee in the world, hands down. However, when Tab milk tea makes it , it becomes the best in the universe. It is authentic, straight from Vietnam. The Thai milk tea is also amazing. Creamy and the perfect pick me up for mid day dilly dallying! You get to choose the sweetness and the boba is the perfect consistency and texture.“

“Love this shop! Heather is amazing and the coffee is always just right!“

“I absolutely adore this place! Not sure how, but the staff always remembers my kiddos order when we walk in. Bagels are fresh, cream cheese is delicious and staff is always professional. My only complaint is that they insist on using fresh blueberries so there’s about a 4-6 week period of time each year they make blueberry bagels and you better get there early if you want some 🤣. On the bright side, I’m not eating a blueberry bagel every day which is probably for the best. Love you guys, thanks for bringing good bagels to Gig Harbor!“

“I live in Texas and every time I come to Seattle the Gameporium is a must stop!!!! Being avid game players, my family loves this place!!!!“

“coffee is great and the pastries are ok. the lines get long here fast. lots of kids here as there is a little kiddie gym right by there. dogs ok outdoors. patio open behind the building in the summertime. they do have dog treats which we love“

“This place is awesome. Easily in my top 5 places to get coffee in the Seattle area (and I've lived here 20 years). First and foremost, their staff. Always welcoming and they know how to make great coffee. Second, their coffee is top notch. I always look forward to my first cup there, then again think about when I can get another for my ride home. Perfect balance of all flavors, and more, that you'd expect from a great coffee shop.“

“Great coffee and impeccable service!“

“So tasty. The match sesame swirl was out of this world. The coconut pineapple swirl was perfectly refreshing. Can’t wait to go back!“

“Great coffee. Great baristas. Great customers.“

“I was pleasantly surprised by this place. I did not have high expectations. I got like an energy drink Italian soda type thing with some CBD added and while it was very sweet it was effective. My friends got coffees and they liked them. There were breakfast sandwiches and lunch sandwiches etc. And they were totally good.“
