Superb coffee! I love their frozen latte.A cozy corner space with indoor and outdoor seating. They also have some art for sale from locals.Sign up for the free Ladro card to track your coffee consumption (hehe) and get 2 free drinks for every 10 purchased! Its kinda like a gift card for yourself that you can reload at any Ladro store πŸ˜‰#notsponsored #justafan

Enjoyed a Latte here with my daughter on a morning walk to explore downtown. At first I thought my coffee was a mistaken order. Daughter assured me that was how Seattle coffee tasted. After a few sips I really enjoyed the different-almost cinnamon type flavor. Great service. Good folks.

Good coffee and good service. Its the kind of kind of where they know your name.

Slow service (bordering on rude, disrespectful - could use an upgrade in staff) and fairly dingy space. This location doesn’t meet the high bar I’ve come to expect of Cafe Ladro.

I’ve been enjoying Caffe Ladro more than usual lately because they’re open later than most coffee spots in LQA right now! I like the variety of drinks they serveβ€” if I’m not looking for coffee that day, I usually opt for a turmeric latte. I love having options and Ladro hasn’t disappointed me yet. The space is neat, too! It’s a bummer we can’t dine in at the moment, but that’s just the state of things!

Two stars for the two nice people behind the counter, minus three stars for the ridiculous price of teaβ€”expect to pay over $4 for hot water with a pouch of leaves.

The only issue with this location is lack of parking. Thankfully I now live quite close and walking distance but for most people, the upper QA shop is a little easier. Staff is very friendly and the coffee is always delicious.

The coffee is good, but you pay a dollar more for most beverages on the menu compared to the other shops in the area.

Theres more than just coffee inside. Theres also a small selection of sandwiches and pastries to go along with your drink. Right now there are a few tables you can sit at covid rules apply of course.

The coffee is nice and the food is good. The staff have always been great. They deal with all of the compost/recycle sorting. It is very easy to get to.I personally dont like the atmosphere because the music is often quite loud for my taste, but most people dont seem to mind. However, if you are in need of a fairly quiet atmosphere, this probably shouldnt be your pick.

Solid roaster with aged Italian marble counter where tat artisians create drinks with Rosetta and Monks Head patterns. The story is one can read the future by observing the change of patterns from day to day.

Coffee is excellent. The options of snacks are less but whatever they have is good. Sitting space is less so depends on what time and what day you decide to arrive here would guarantee a seat. But coffee no doubt is excellent.

Review β„–21

Ladro is always a good spot to go for coffee and tea. They have a vibe that reads as more tranquil and less corporate. This location had a decent amount of tables and chairs so patrons could live their cafe lifestyle bliss. However I am unaware of their busy shifts, so this might not always be true during peak times. The cafe seemed to draw in a crowd that were mainly quintessential Seattle hipsters. Perhaps thats just what that particular neighborhood contains. Beards and laptops everywhere. Would definitely go back, despite the hipsters. Good spot for a catch up with an old friend. (Also, just kidding hipsters...takes one to know one, my brethren!)

The staff and atmosphere were great hence the two stars though I wont be going back. I got a grande Carmel latte and lavender bread. And honestly, Ive not yet poured a coffee out in Seattle until now but it was terrible.not to the fault of the barista, I dont think. It didnt taste bitter like she let it sit, etc. But man it was gross, perhaps the milk or ratio on the recipe was off. The lemon lavender bread made me feel like I was eating soap. I love lavender, basically everything, but I could have more then a bite of this it was so overwhelming.

I came in and asked for caramel mocha extra hot. Lets say that my drink was did not meet my expectations. I was mildly warm and very little on caramel sauce. To pay over $6 for this was unacceptable. I will now go downtown the the street to Starbucks.

The coffee here ia pretty darn good I must admit. Everything I have tried thus far from here has been delightful and delicious! The price is a wee bit high on some of the drinks but I understand that the location of this shop is close enough to downtown to have downtown prices l.

Stopped by on a long walk and grabbed an iced latte. Was pleased they offered organic milk and the latte was very tasty. Wish they had had almond milk instead of rice or soy (for my dairy sensitive kido). Overall, good place to pause on a walk with my little people.

Coffee, a thing that only drives you into a frenzy, meaning deep conversation, that drives you into arguments that go from where to get good coffee, to what exactly is the best coffee.That said, enter Caffe Ladro.This place is the simple format, coffee place, with great tasting coffee, but one has to admire the simplicity of this location. They have seating for maybe 24 people inside, 4 booths, 2 window booths (great places to be above the crowd, literally), but this place is the perfect people watching location, because of the deck chairs outside. Sure its freezing out there right now; but give it a few months, and you will find that this is remarkably comfy to just sit, lean back, sip, and relax.How is the coffee? Its not the strongest, harshest brew, instead, its just darn tasty; I got a Tall Soy No-Whip Mocha.Look... Its cold outside right now, but this place is inviting, warm and just feels good. If you are in this area, sure there is a Starbucks down the street, but this places it he local coffee place that just makes you glad you live in Seattle.

The coffee is great (I say this as someone who thinks most coffee is unremarkable or bad, but Ladros is remarkably good), the people are super nice, and the vibe is utterly unpretentious. I like stopping by on my way to the bus a block south from here.

There are better coffee shops and coffee in the area. The proximity to the hotel makes this establishment rather complacent, but doesnt explain the undertone of hostility towards differences.

Some of the best coffee in Seattle. For here I get their Gibraltar which is essentially a cortado and they give you a cookie on the side.For lattes go to herkimer which is a few miles west.
