Just coffee and a pastry this time for me. Besides the masks, I almost felt like pre COVID times. Nice place to stop and work while getting your oil changed at Matts.
Diva is my go-to coffee shop when Im too lazy to make my own coffee in the morning. Theyre quick, kind, and always make high quality drinks. I like that they have a variety of seasonal specialty drinks, which are often unique from ones I see at other shops! They also have a decent sized parking lot in the back and theres often street parking available out front.
Service is fast and very friendly. Pastries have pretty consistent selection with occasional different items. Only negative is the breakfast sandwiches with egg...the egg is that terrible jello gelatinous egg product which can ruin a sandwich...even when heated. The texture is pretty bad.
Nice little coffee shop, fast and friendly.
Christina was super friendly w/ my kiddos!Great lattes
Tasty coffee, friendly staff, cozy atmosphere. It wasnt busy when I went in around 8:am.
Usually a very freindly place but todays experience makes me never want to come back 😕 and the sad part to me is that I do not think they will even care...
Great people behind the counter, great coffee and pastries. My favorite for more than 20 years.
Ive been a Diva Generra fan for years, never had a bad experience there. Staff is great, love the 80th and Greenwood location.
Easily my favorite coffee spot in the area. I love their selected of baked goods. If you are comfortable staying, there is even a little patio to enjoy your treats while admiring an gorgeous mural that stands adjacent. Thank you Diva Staff for your uplifting attitudes during these tough times!
Great coffee, tasty pastries and friendly staff. Why not five stars? There is always room for improvement, plus it is a little too pricey.
We go at least 3 days a week! The baristas are lovely and we love that they let us order the seasonal drinks all year long.. A forever favorite!
If I could give this place 6, 7 or 8 stars I would. Rarely do I write a review while Im still in the establishment but here I am! I started my morning at the Diva on 80th St (which I will also review) and ended my evening in the one on 47th street. I just needed a place to re-caffeinate and get some quick work done and I found a true home away from home with the friendliest people you could hope to encounter not to mention the very, very excellent espresso drinks. Nicole here is super nice and she remembers peoples orders if they stop in again. Who does that? Nicole does! The Diva will NOT let you down. You can trust your hard-earned will go far here :)
Coffee was good but not great. The staff working there were very friendly and the space is nice.
80th st is getting an update/reno. They always make the drinks just right.
Lobe the atmosphere and the outside seating
Laurie, your coffee is 5 stars, always has been. But I am upset by the service at the 80th ST location. They got my drink wrong, Conversation was tense and awkward, I did not feel welcome at all. There was no passion for the product, and I did not feel valued 1 iota.At 145th, I always felt uplifted every time I came out with my order. Didnt matter who was behind the counterWe all need a respite from the stress and tension hanging in the air, like this wildfire smoke hangout around us.Your baristas HAVE that opportunity to be such a soothing touchstone in the neighborhood they serve.Bit that is just it: will they serve or be I just work here.Thank You
Friendly, efficient and always great!! Delicious coffee and food. Try it. You wont be sorry.
I have been to Diva Espresso a few times now and the costumer service is always friendly. I am not a coffee drinker, so I always get some sort of tea. Their chai is a bit sweet for my tastes but it isnt bad at all. Great atmosphere to go and study or read and open later than most coffee places at 7. At least the Greenwood one is. I recommend.
This place is fantastic! I always have an amazing time. Everyone is so nice!
The baklava latte is really unique and delicious! Its a bit sweet depending on your taste.
Always love diva, but this is one of the cutest and the employees are always very kind. I recommend the matcha and chai, though you cant beat their coffee either.
A good place if you want an early cup of coffee or a latte, etc. They have a descent variety of pastries as well, but if you are there just after they open, you might be there before the pastry delivery! A cozy cafe, friendly staff. A great local alternative to Starbucks!
Good coffee and always a variety of baked goods for everyone. I happen to be vegan and they always have a good selection of vegan scones, muffins, and other yummy treats. They also have a variety of gluten free if thats what you want.
A great local espresso bar. They even do pumpkin spice lattes. Probably better than Starbucks. Tastes like liquor without the liquor!
So yummy and the baristas are so nice. The coffee is great.
It was hard to find a coffee shop in this area that stayed open past 5pm or 6pm. Luckily, Diva cup does! Although the size is rather small, it was not super crowded to get some work done.What I especially loved was that they have a large parking spot!
Excellent neighborhood coffee shop. Simple menu. Good staff. Amazing baked goods. I would have gone 5-stars, but, as a drip drinker, the drip choices are usually rather predictable and average. Changing up the drips more frequently to varied/interesting options would make for an exploratory trip to the coffee shop.
Friendly, good coffee and variety of quality baked goods.
Good cup of coffee way better than starbucks
Good coffee. Nice back porch. Plenty of parking here. There should be a diva espresso in every neighborhood.
Diva is always fabulous! I love everything about it - great, hand crafted coffee, yummy treats, and engaging yet efficient staff.The beans are from their on-site roaster at the 145th + Greenwood location. Everything about Diva is local craft and service. Everyone is welcome there.A true local treasure for three decades.
We love Diva! The coffee is always tasty and they have a great variety of vegan and/or gluten free treats.
Nice little place. Friendly staff, decent selection of bakery items, and just enough breakfast/lunch items to scratch the savory itch. Private parking lot is a huge plus.
Best coffee in Seattle and friendly service too
Ordered a pumpkin cheesecake latte for my wife and just a regular mocha for myself, staff was super friendly, the mocha was perfect and my wife loved her drink, and both were the perfect temperature right out the gate, not scalding hot like some places like to make and not super saturated with syrup, just right.
I come here when I need some time with my girls. The employees surprise me with a drink of their choice. The setting is visiting. Lots of room to sit and work. Loads of food options. Today, my drink was a beer battered latte in honor of Harry porter. Pictured below. Love love love! I dont even drink coffee but today. I do!!!!!
Best cup of coffee you can find in Seattle. Ive been looking for somewhere that can make a decent cup for a while now. They never let their shots sit too long, the staff is always friendly, they have a good selection of food and pastries, and a great atmosphere.
Diva espresso is a cute little coffee shop with excellent brewed coffee. My husband and I had americanos which had full body flavor. My son enjoyed his hot chocolate. We will be back
Always good coffee, tasty pastries and cozy atmosphere. Kid friendly with staff who are patient while my kids take forever to pick out what they want!
Nice cozy little spot to go sit down and sip on a warm drink and baked good. Havent had a bad americano or coffee yet - not too bitter (as some small shops love to do) and never burnt. Definitely a place I swing by whenever Im in the area.
Charming little coffee shop with plenty to offer. Some vegan pastries available, always a plus, and they have several different milks for those avoiding dairy as well. Great location too, right in the middle of tons of shops and community centers and other things to do.
Fast, friendly, and reasonably priced
My local coffe shop. The baristas are great, and the coffee is tasty. Really appreciate free refills. Drinks can be inconsistent across staff, but most of the time Im very pleased.
Always a great cup of Joe here. Robust flavors from quality beans +1 star, breakfast/bakery options are good +1, decent Wi-Fi if you can find an open table...most of the staff is friendly +1.When coming to start the morning, the last thing anyone wants is unpleasantness. If the job is making java with a smile, make sure to stay in character. That being said, usually the staff is happy/positive and its not Starbucks +1!
Classic neighborhood coffee house. Our best/closest dark whole beans. Great place to hang with neighbors. Good hours.
The best coffee. The best location on 80th and Greenwood ave.
Great coffee and followed social distance rules
Quaint coffee house, great espresso, very friendly staff, outdoor back deck that was nice to chill out on.
One of the best coffee shops in Ballard and possibly Seattle. Consistantly good coffee and friendly faces.
Such a great place! Amazingly friendly staff, and some nice spots in the sun
Yummy coffee. Cute little place. A little pricy but they have a rewards card.
Great coffee made by baristas who know how to make great coffee. Service with a smile. Support this small, local business before anyone else.
Consistantly good coffee, nice pastry selection and an incredibly kind staff. My family loves coming here.
Reliable local chain with free wi-fi, options for dairy-free and gluten-free milk and pastries.
Seattle best cafe in a city with a wealth of excellent cafes.
I love the service, the vibe is awesome and you can use the facilities as a customer they are the hosts with the most
Coffee is not as good as it used to be ... But many great things to eat n the baristas are all very nice helpful n fast
Live this place, a bit tough to get in and out of with limited parking, but great coffee and nice atmosphere to for a spell
Super friendly staff, gluten free options, non dairy milks, and comfortable atmosphere!
Good iced coffee. Something about their roast that makes the iced coffee taste great. Theres also a selection of baked goods and other snacks. Baristas are always friendly and fun. Place is a bit old, but works. Wifi works well. Parking lot can be a bit tricky to navigate. Theres a bike rack right out front. Yay! Can get a bit warm inside, but the outdoor seating areas, out front or back, are also good choices. Register takes contactless payment (e.g. Apple Pay).
Coffee is delicious, theres a decent selection of vegan pastries (and theyre actually good!), and the baristas are friendly.Highly recommend the brewed coffee, but you really cant go wrong here.
They were very friendly, espresso was great...what more could you ask for!
Great muffins and scones. Whole grain and vegetarian available. Also add walas juices and bottled water and sodas. WiFi free water.
Had a mocha with orange peel (gennaro?) here and it was great. I recommend the coffee and the service I received was excellent as well.
My fav spot cuz the kids are alright.
Always a pleasure with the staff! Great coffee for a wait and chill (bus stop near by and my kids school)😊
Nice coffee and close to the library.
The only espresso/coffee shop worth of five stars--the Best. Fresh bakery products every day, including croissants, Snickerdoodles, Peanut Butter cookies, chocolate chip cookies and OMG Oatmeal Raisin cookies off the charts delicious. But the real reason to go here is the baristas--professional baristas that know their stuff and know how to pull a shot, unlike cookie-cutter, push button Starbucks baristas that are just physically there. When you order a triple at Divas, you get three perfect shots that doesnt make your mocha or latte taste like all milk like Starbucks (I have a lifetime boycott on Starbucks, or Milkbucks as I call them, because its only milk they serve--Starbucks Milks you for the bucks and you dont really taste any coffee. Starmilks also works for them).The Chumley is also very delicious, being a mocha-espresso type Frappe drink, milkshake, but sometimes they go light on the powder--be sure to make sure they put heaping scoops in the blender. Their most expensive drink and perfect in the summer. I once turned around after the first one it was so delicious, I ordered a second. Hmmm. Didnt need to eat dinner that day.
Delicious coffee, gf baked items available from Nuflours, and a warm atmosphere. Definitely the new neighborhood spot for us.
Great coffee, nice atmosphere, friendly staff. Good prices as well.
Decent coffee and price is better than other cafés in neighborhood.
Nice people...very good selection of goodies...convenient free parking...
Love this place they have the best nobake cookies and good coffee
Nice staff...coffee is great
I stopped here out of necessity when I couldnt find a coffee shack and was blown away by the Old English feel, lots of burled dark wood, large pre-raphealite paintings, a long outdoor covered deck, and sweet (if a bit dim) staff.
Great dark roasts, come here every week to stock up on beans.
I recomend peaple to visit Diva Espresso, gabriel super excellent customer service
Super friendly staff, best drip coffee in town!
Service is quick and the people are very nice and always remember a familiar face!!!!
Cute and quaint and great coffee or espresso made expertly
Love Diva! Been going there since 1992!
Divas coffee shop is good
Really good chai tea, typical price, friendly staff, even though they werent focused on conversing with us as much as themselves.
Very busy! But great coffee, even their drip!
Good coffee snotty service. I was trying to talk to a barista and she rolled her eyes and looked away. She still made my coffee but i left without paying. Not impressed.
Great way to start your morning.
This place used to be the best mofo coffee shop eva but its just okay now 😧
Small cafe, great staff, nice spot to hunker down
Nice quaint place friendly staff great coffee
Coffee is the second best thing about this place. Baristas are the firstest.
Good coffee and nice atmosphere. Has a few off street parking spots as well.
My favorite coffee shop in the neighborhood. Great atmosphere, friendly staff, good coffee.
