Joe Murphy LibrarianJanuary 23, 2016Temporary location across the street (under the bridge). Same amazing service and drinks.
Allie S.August 13, 2015Good latte but not sure why it's rated #1 in Seattle on 4sq. Would prefer if they roasted their own beans. Pastry offerings were also lacking.
Matt KOctober 1, 2012By far the best coffee in Fremont. Their mochas are made using pulverized Theo chocolate bars!
Bridget GaelAugust 31, 2017Great fresh brewed coffee. Ok baked goods-- would be better if you could heat them up.
Caffeine-free option: iced plum ginger tea. Super delicious.
Matt RoneyNovember 10, 2013Extremely impressed by this place. A variety of brew methods, and very skilled barista work n
Myasha BermanFebruary 26, 2016Beyond the coffee --which is really good in a city of third wave coffee -- the barista was genuinely friendly in a non-obnoxious way. I liked that people were hanging out working. Excellent place.
Coffee is excellent, pastries are weird.. Just discovered today their chocolate chip cookies are amazing!
- Oremo OchilloApril 11, 2017If you are from out of town and visiting take a short walk to the Freemont Troll
Easily one of the best espresso places in Seattle
Cool spot, but really annoying that they don't have non-fat milk (but will pretend they do if you order it, unless you notice or press them).
- Rotating aeropress means there's always something new brewing up
Oksana Z.March 23, 2013The only place in town that makes a latte that tastes like coffee, not milk. Worth the extra buck.
Sarah AbareJune 21, 2012They use madagascar vanilla beans to make their own vanilla syrup in-house. Yum!
Great cappuccino! Nice (big) space. Troll sightings reported.
- Best chocolate chip cookies ever. Their other pastries are pretty weird.
Try the nutella bomb, wow they are good, especially with a nice cup of cappuccino.
