Fast service, good coffee, and tasty pastries! This coffee shop was a great find for me. There were plenty of seats inside as well as some patio seating. I got a latte and a coffee cake, and both were wonderful! There is a small pastry section at the counter, as well as sandwiches and bagels available daily. A lovely place to stop for a while!

This is my go-to neighborhood coffee spot n pioneer Square. That being said, when they get a rush, prepare to wait. Its gotten to the point that if I see a line, I just turn around and forgo my coffee for the day. If you want a bagel sandwich, get it early in the week, by the weekend, the bagel selection has diminished quite a bit. Otherwise, I love this place.

There is no short supply of excellent coffee shops around pioneer square, but this ones definitely in the top 5. Excellently crafted coffees and delicious food as well. They have a nice seating area with tall ceilings and delightful local art. Try their soups!

Had a really great Locks and Cream on a great Bagel. It was all that I expected. We had a group of 4 and didnt see a table we could all sit at. We did find a tall table where one could stand and the rest could sit. So probably not great for a big group but fairly quiet for if you want to chat.we all liked our food.

Review №15

Great spot for a tasty breakfast sandwich and good coffee. My favorite is the tomato basil sandwich on an asiago bagel. The lunch sandwiches are also really tasty, especially the home made veggie burger and the sausage and pepper pita. Been going here for years and its been one of the most consistently delicious cafes; drinks and sandwiches have always been prepared just right.

This place was just alright. The coffee was only ok. I was disappointed with the coffee, I ordered a Soy latte and it was just alright. My family got Mochas and were disappointed. The breakfast sandwiches were also disappointing. The service and atmosphere was good but the cost was a little high for the quality you got. The facilities were fine for bathrooms. I would not come back here and would not recommend this place to others.

Love this shop, where I go for afternoon coffee! Tough space Covid wise as flow is hard to navigate with everyone keeping the proper distance. Theyve done their best and usually its other patrons Im uncomfortable with how close they like to be.Friendly, chill staff. Always the best grooves on when I come in. Excited for when Ill be able to spend hours upstairs again.

Has everything. Tons of coffee choices, food, pastries, snacks. Try their cherry street house blend. Very clean. Baristas are nice and knowledgeable. If line is too long, go across the street to their Express shop. A little warm inside, also has outdoor seating.

Review №32

Staff was friendly.I wish I could say something better about this place. I walked 6 blocks on a recommendation and it was literally the worse coffee I have ever had. Someone needs to teach them how to make an Americano properly. It was so bad I did not want to ask for another so I just left my drink on the table and walked out. There is a lot of competition out there, if you want to stay in business I recommend learning how to make coffee.

My bagel was fantastic and my Milky Way beverage did not disappoint. In terms of my bagel, I loved the chunks of jalapeño (I had the jalapeño cheddar bagel). I would absolutely come again if I have the chance.

I loved my experience here. Friendly and attentive servers, delicious food, plenty of seating, and a corner location perfect for sitting outdoors and enjoying downtown. I got a cold brew and the falafel sandwich (one of several lunch options that can made vegan). The pita bread was incredibly soft and warm, the vegetables fresh and tasty.

Batista wasnt very friendly, the coffee was mediocre at best. It is an awesome building with great history. A little difficult to get in to if the underground tour is moving through. All n all just OK.

Coffee tasted sour, bitter, tart even with sugar and normally I dont add sugar to coffee. If this is somehow on purpose maybe staff should educate the customer however I didnt get the feeling this was on purpose. Cool spot though, great location and clean bathrooms.

In the article it said “order the dirty chai latte. you’ll thank me later”. and we’re they right. delish. coffee was amazing also. great location. worth the visit. kicked out visit off right, so much so that we stopped by as our last stop in seattle before heading to the the airport. worth the visit!

It had been a long time since I discover surprising, new, flavorful savours. I never thought to combine cold coffee with orange and it works perfectly with a homemade orange syrop! The stew was delicious, juicy meatballs with beef and lamb mixed and cooked in spinach accompanied with Pickles and yogurt! I cannot say if the flatbread is homemade, I would have appreciated a fresh and warm one. I need to come back and try the breakfast with a sweet waffle made with tahini butter, honey and pistachios... I highly recommend this place! The atmosphere is quite entertaining, spacious and bright with a large view on Occidental square and its animation.

I liked this place because of the word Cherry. Im not now nor was I a big fan back in the day, but the name of this place makes me think of a song from the late eighties or early nineties. I just cant remember what the name was or who sung it. Shes my.....

I was looking for a New York style breakfast sandwich. It wasnt quite a New York sandwich on a roll, BUT it was excellent, as my husband claimed after he finished his last bite. We both ate the bacon, egg and cheese sandwich on a bagel. I drank a caramel latte with my meal, and I must say it was one of the best espresso drinks I have had in a very long time. It was incredibly smooth and the caramel is house-made. Doesnt get any better. We are definitely planning to come back for more!

Coffee is good. Location is good. Food is good. And this is Seattle, so the city is good too! I will be back and will try their Persian food (yes, they serve traditional Persian stews). Parking may be a problem but the parking building just across the street is convenient and among the best priced in the vicinity.

Just giving one star, for my notes, so I dont come back. Idk what a lot of these coffee places do, but its quite common, that it tastes like they go heavy on the molasses with it. I hate that molasses style coffee, and $7 later, Im sol.Im sure its a good shop otherwise, but Im just not a fan of foul coffee

Loved the food, drinks and atmosphere in here. Several tables and window bar to sit, relaxed music playing for a gentle coffee house atmosphere. Loved the granola (cinnamon!), the gyro and tuna melt sandwich! You can get coffee, cold brew or even a beer/cider here, sit in the window and enjoy Seattle City centre scenery outside. Perfect to relax!

Excellent. Staff is professional, amiable & attentive. Atmosphere is most comfortable and the public restrooms are always clean, stocked well the essentials and one doesnt have to wait long to gain access.

Got Sunday lunch with my girlfriend, when we ordered at the register the girl with green hair was very polite and great customer service. Food was received in a timely manner and was delicious. Only thing that dinged our experience was the girl with darker skin and braids. She said her name was Sappora (probably wrong spelling). I politely asked where the restroom was and very passively she said “right around the corner” and did not bother to mention that there was a code and what it was. I went back to ask and got the same attitude. I wondered if I was perceiving her wrong or if she was actually giving me attitude for some reason so I went to ask her for a straw and got a fake smile as she tossed it over the counter to me without saying a word. At this point I knew. We finished our food without trying to think about our experience with her but couldn’t notice that she was smiling and giving great service to the next person that came in. She spoke very nicely to my girlfriend when she asked where to put our dishes but when I went to ask for her name she told me in the same attitude I received the first time and gave a short spiteful wave as we left. I couldn’t help but think she was treating me this way because of my race, as she treated every other person with kindness. Whatever her issue was, I wouldn’t let a person like her work for me if she’s treating people like that for any reason whatsoever, and I won’t be spending anymore of my time at this place for this reason.

Love this coffee house, and this location is hands down the best! If youre in Pioneer Square, dont bother with the local coffee giant -- stop here instead. Youll have an authentic Seattle experience, AND get a great coffee to boot. Lots of seating, food is delish, and the service is speedy.
