Great neighborhood coffee shop that opens early, and a nice indoor space for people to socialize and work. It has two floors with plenty of tables and seats (looks a little crowded given the current social distancing situation but must be really fun and lively pre-covid).I had a good cup of latte in the morning, price is reasonable and service was quite friendly.

Latte was delicious, drip coffee was a little weak. The upstairs portion looked like a cool place to study or do some work. It was pretty quiet on a weekday.

Pros: spacious, tables for working, plenty street parking, fast wifiCons: COLD, no cell reception for Verizon

One of the nicest coffee shops I’ve been to in Seattle! Coffee was made with love and great pastries

Unbeatable Atmosphere. Great Wifi. Great place to get a little work done. Lots of good seating. Wonderful service with great communication about what I wanted. Good food. Brought sunshine to my day.

The first time I went in, I fell in love with this adorable café and its workers. A large selection of pastries and drinks are available, as well as a vegetarian option. There is also a very comfortable and inviting atmosphere! This coffee shop comes highly recommended!

Great espresso and assorted pastries.

The coffee and Macrina breakfast treats were delicious. Loved the atmosphere otherwise and space otherwise, and the wifi was super dependable! However, I was very surprised at how many people sat inside unmasked given the current mask mandate (literally almost everyone except for staff!). Totally get it when youre actively eating/drinking - but people werent wearing masks for hours. We kept our masks on when not eating/drinking, but it made us very uncomfortable. (We wouldnt have chosen to stay if we didnt have 2.5 hours to kill near our kids half day camp.)

Great snack. Excellent coffee (latte and mocha). Fantastic seating out front!

Good coffee and good baristas, milk foam was a bit too much for my cortado but the temperature was great hence the taste of the coffee was pleasant. Thank you!

A lovely coffee shop is available in the city. We came here in the morning for coffee and had delicious coffee and cakes. They also serve tea in the afternoon and have a menu for children. It had to be tasted. Recommended strongly!

The best place to study and very friendly service!

One of the best classic cups of coffee Ive had in awhile.

Their Harvest bread is delicious. Im addicted to it! Great service and ambiance.

Quiet, nice space. Very kind folks. Tasty pastries and ice cream.

Cozy coffee shop with comfortable seating and multiple levels. The baked goods are excellent and coffee is unmatched. Has fast and free WiFi making it a great study spot. Highly recommend to anyone visiting the Fremont area!

Beautiful local coffee shop and definitely my preference for something within walking distance from my home. Very nice design, and its unfortunate theres no inside dining yet; one of these days, Id love to sit on the second floor. All the drinks I got so far were very tasty. Nice, strong coffee all around. I had a good breakfast burrito as well; I think they bring them in from elsewhere, but theyll certainly do. There are options if youre vegetarian.

Definitely a great place for working.

Coffee so good it will give you hope again

I’ve visited a lot of coffee shops here in Seattle and this one is By far the best coffee I’ve ever had and they are so sweet!:)

I really enjoy the flavor of their coffee. The environment was nice, very comfortable, too. Id probably come back, and Id suggest it to anyone. Thank you very much for your good heart in helping your clients.

Im new to Seattle, but Ive heard great things about the coffee here. I got the drip coffee 3 days ago on Saturday, and it was remarkably watery. The menu said drip / french press so I assume they have some giant press for this. Today, Tuesday, I went back and the drip was watery again.j So I asked the barista if she had tried it herself and she said, well its french press. I can put a shot of espresso in it for you. Perhaps my roommate used to make french press with more gusto, but Ive never had a weaker cup o joe. My understanding of a french press too is that you just leave the coffee and water together in the press for 5-10 minutes until the water is saturated with the coffee oils. If its watery, its most likely just that you didnt put enough beans in or didnt let it sit long enough. French press is supposed to be a very robust cup because of this compared to chemex brewing which just drains relatively quickly and is therefore lighter and brighter. Next time Ill check to see if theyve made any adjustments in their drip / french press recipe and probably just get an espresso drink.

First time impressions: good coffee drinks, friendly staff, killer dark chocolate brownies. Parking is hit or miss but its my only complaint.

Cozy place for study and work. Nice coffee with soft music. Relaxing vibe.

The breakfast we had was really good and very tasty. The espresso was even better, the best coffee in the area. I also love the decaf it was one of the best I’ve ever tasted. The staff is very friendly. A highly recommendable coffee shop!

Clean, nice atmosphere. Great coffee.

Ive been coming here quite frequently since the the pandemic started and after months of high quality service and impeccable consistency I felt i owed them a review.Never during the ups and downs of the past few months have i received a bad cup of coffee. im not a barista i do know that its incredibly difficult to get it right every day. There are so many factors that can go wrong so i do expect every once in a while to get a bad cup even from the best of establishments. That has never happened. Not once. Every time its served politely with a freindly smile and ALWAYS in a real cup. I truly feel like they respect their customers. They dont compromise on taste.The crossaints (technically cornettos) are delicious. For me thats whats important. The rest of the food is....ok. good enough for a coffee shop but i wouldnt come here for the food. They focus on the coffee here and for that I am grateful.The decor is beautiful as well. While the tables and chairs are well worn and the fake leather couches are cracked and torn i hardly notice because the shop is always filled with a rotating gallery of local artists. All the peices for sale and if i had the money i would definitely spring for one, or two! The center peice is a beautiful glass sculpture spanning both levels. while it sits dusty it is always a pleasure to ponder.Through the hallway theres a bulletin board stuffed with fliers events and advertisements for the community the recurring theme always rings support local. The bathrooms are......well they could be worse. Often a line forming to occupy the single space.Outlets here are usually able to be had. Sometimes when its busy it requires a bit of scouting but thats all part of the fun.Ok now the fun partThe Coffee:The coffee itself lends itself a beautiful chocolaty taste. Nutty rich and warm. The drip somehow has a hint of natural sweetness to it which i find delightful. Like most seattle espressos its made to be consumed withat least a hint of milk and from their lattes to machiattos they just always get it right.I would Highly recommend patronizing this shop. They respect their customers and it shows. I will keep coming back and I hope nothing changes.

This convenient drug store was a few meters away from my house. I am glad that they had all the medicine and vitamins I needed to buy. The place was very safe and you can assure that the medicine was properly stored.

Great service and plenty of space to study in the sunshine with wifi!

Great dirty Chai

First of all, any coffee shop that brews Lighthouse Coffee is a friend of mine. I am a die hard fan of their coffee. However, Seattle Sunshine now has a special place in my heart. The cafe is beautiful and open, the pastries are to die for, and the baristas are the best. This is quickly going to become my go to in Seattle.

Just moved to this neighborhood and found this lovely coffee shop with tons of space for working. The baristas greeted all customers without the Seattle freeze we have experienced at many other places.

I just love another kind of coffee, and this coffee shop serves all of my tastes, making me one of their frequent customers.

Best coffee in Seattle and all of the staff are amazing. Cant recommend enough!

The best macchiato I’ve ever had!!!

Plenty of space and outlets for studying, and lots of great artwork!

We go here frequently and the service & coffee are always top notch.

Love this place! I come in pretty regularly (pre and post corona) and not only are they observing all of the social distance and mask orders, they also have really great coffee!! I normally get a latte with an extra shot, a flavor, and an alt milk and even if I wanted to get a breakfast sandwich too, I know it’s not going to be a ridiculous total. AND I’m still going to get great vegan coffee and a delicious not as vegan sandwich!! Although, I’m pretty sure they may have vegan sandwich options haha 10/10 would recommend (and street parking is pretty abundant too)

Staff is very friendly and quick. The coffee is roasted to be very dark and it isnt my preference. Nice spot for people in the neighborhood who like a really dark roast.

Excellent coffee and breakfast sandwiches. A nice local joint that is a must visit.

What a neat little space. Was so surprised how big and bright it was inside. Stopped in for a quick pick me up on a busy workday and the coffee was made to perfection by a really friendly fella named Michael. Will definitely make this a regular stop and will be sharing the gem with all my mobile Co workers! Thank you for keeping coffee magical ; )

Hands down best coffee I’ve ever had! One of the owners, Sen (not sure if I’m spelling that correctly!), is always so sweet and welcoming! My go to is a lightly iced lavender latte with oat milk - it’s amazing!Edited to add that the employees here are absolute gems of society. Some of the kindest people I’ve ever met and still the best coffee around!

I was upstairs minding my own business, working on my homework when the barista came upstairs and asked if I had purchased anything. (Karens are everywhere people, in all shapes, sizes, and ages.). I asked her why did she ask me that question. She replied because this is a patrons only establishment. I reminded her that she was the one who told me a few days ago that they could make my coffee in my personal cup, which I showed her my cup. Granted I had been here since the morning, and I guess she was on the later shift, but I also had bought a sandwich that cost over $8. I would hate to attribute her questioning me due to my skin tone, but seriously WTH? I hadnt seen/heard her ask anyone else this. Good feelings and good mood gone. I promptly packed up my homework, gave a customer my punch card and told her that I will not be coming back, which I won’t be.

GREAT coffee. Love that they are environmentally conscious. Beautiful space with comfortable chairs. The music was a little bit loud for me to do the schoolwork I was doing, but thats a me problem. :)

Seattle Sunshine has great coffee and food. I also love the atmosphere. They have lots of art from local artists that rotates through along with the cool hanging glass piece that is a central part of the vibe. They have a good amount of outlets so it makes a great space to plug in and get some work done. With the upstairs seating Seattle Sunshine has lots of space too.

Coffee is lighthouse roasters, which is pretty decent. Baked goods are from macrina, one of the best bakeries in town. Decor is well chosen, although the venue feels a little sterile and not particularly cozy. Staff are pleasant and competent.Overall a great coffee shop, would recommend.

Perfect little neighborhood coffee shop that serves high quality coffee and fare. Its a little pricey, but you get what you pay for. Sunshine Coffee certainly caters to students and business types, offering comfort, plenty of seating, quiet atmosphere and lots of natural light and soft tones. Its a great place to get some work done, or just lounge while waiting for friends, rain or... Sunshine.

I come here to work for extended periods. The coffee is good, breakfast and lunch are covered with tacos and sandwiches, and Macrina Bakery treats are available for a snack. The second floor usually offers a bit more seclusion if you want to read or work.

Had a fantastic experience here. Lovely atmosphere and friendly professional staff. Got a Berry Good Latte and now cant go back to a regular moca. Definitely worth stopping by.

Nice community space. Lots of seats and room to meet with friends. I appreciated the selection of kids books by to couch.

I had no idea it was here.Now I do.It had coffeeAnd tea too.I had no ideaAt the timeThat this reviewWould rhyme.

Great coffee keep it up

Great coffee. One of the best Ive had in a while. Its also clean modern and a nice place to be unlike some of the more eclectic coffee places.

Really good service, REALLY tasty lattes, & plenty of room to work, socialize, or just hang out.Like some other reviewers mentioned, downstairs is super loud, so wander upstairs for a bit more quiet if thats what you need.Also, coffees arent very hot, so you should ask for extra, EXTRA hot.Free parking is also behind the building if you cant find street parking.

Super kind barista that talked about everything with me. Nice quiet space to work or just read. The coffee was great quality.

Amazing coffee and definitely the BEST place to study. The place is quiet with lots of natural lighting. Also, Sen and Andrew -- the owners are extremely genuine and friendly, the efforts that they put into each of every single cup of coffee is excessively generous.

I love Seattle Sunshine Coffee! Always classy and clean! Sen is so friendly and makes everyone feel welcome. Great food and great coffee. I highly recommend Seattle Sunshine Coffee!!

The best kept secret in Ravenna. The coffee is great, consistently. The people who work here are friendly and treat regulars like family. I go here every time I get a chance. Its a great place to meet with a friend or catch up on some work.

Gluten free raspberry crumble was doughier than I expected. Counter person was respectful and thoughtfully offered sparkling water with my companions strong coffee.

BEAUTIFUL café; so much natural light! The staff are incredibly friendly and their coffee is delicious. As a nursing student, having plenty of table space is important and this place HAS IT! I think Ive found my new go-to spot. 💜

Excellent coffee, and the squash cake is amazing

Very nice baristas and fantastic coffee. Cute spot with a convenient location. If you dont want to feed the Starbucks giant buy here!

Pleasant people. Friendly. Ice Cream was very good.

Favorite place to come with my boo to study. Its a big place, plenty of seating, most of all its usually very quite so studying is good here. Staff can act a little snobby, but Ive gotten used to not letting it bother me. The important thing here is the space, not the staff.

Fresh new coffee house in an area with a few options, but not too many. Itll be nice to see how the coffee house settles. Seems a good place to hang for a bit with wifi and plugs, plus is inviting. Maybe a fourth star 🌟 after a year and see if it maintains ambiance of a friendly place to head to. So far, worth it.

Two floors of tables and plenty of electrical outlets. Great place to study, chill with a friend and catch up, or bring your knitting. Great snacks and sandwiches, tasty coffee and tea, and friendly staff!

Mocha I had was delicious!! Clean and bright. Lots of areas to sit.

Only one bathroom. Luckily its all gender whatever that means. Coffee was good. Wait staff was quick and unobtrusive. Overall, I would go back.

Nice coffee shop at the edge of Hawthorn Hills with a good basic selection of sweet and savory pastries and an array of pre-made made breakfast and lunch sandwiches. Coffee was very good. Friendly, helpful staff.

Nice seating on two levels. I sat upstairs. It was nice, clean, and quiet with plenty of light. The coffee and pastries were very good.

Great coffee, tasty fresh pastry, lots of space. Very comfortable with tables and lounge chairs. Two floors. Lots of light. Friendly staff. Local paper every day.

Clean, chill music, great coffee, good prices and laptop friendly. Definitely will be back again.

Delicious iced latte. Very friendly.

Friendly employees and owners, great local art showcased and a variety of milk alternatives, including oatly 😍

A nice surprise! Id seen it but never visited. Staff were super nice and the espresso was very good.

Love to come here and get some work done, i wish they had better choice of pastries but generally speaking this is a top notch spot

Girl working at 3pm on Wed the 15th spent 10 minutes making a cup of coffee and a mocha for a regular and his son. I was the only other customer in line. I had 10 minutes to get a coffee before needing to leave for work. I left before I could order.Dont do that! Other people have places to go and things to do. At least you seemed nice.Thanks...

Wonderful. great bright place. great service and nice clientele.

Great coffee and super nice barista!

Great coffee and snacks, but the WiFi is so slow!

I only go to coffee shops to study so my review reflects that. Seattle Sunshine is a welcome addition for the Bryant/Wedgwood neighborhood. Ive found that most of the coffee shops around here cater to families, which is fine but it means that they are noisy. Seattle Sunshine has a refined, modern look that is complemented by great espresso, non-offensive music (in volume and genre), good wifi, and tons of seating. The upstairs area is great for studying. Its not a super quiet cafe, but its as good as it gets in this neighborhood.

Perfect little coffee shop, highly recommend it. Hit chocolate with oat milk is surprisingly tasty!

One of my favorite coffee shops in the neighborhood. Lots of seats available, baristas are always friendly and consistent with coffee, and its a perfect spot for reading and writing!

Great place of a cup of coffee, some sweet and savory snacks as well.

Nice working vibe - pretty busy on a Sunday afternoon. Plenty of seating, with nice big tables to do my grading!

Great place to grab a bite to eat or just work. Two floors, so quite a lot of space.

Really amazing and personalable staff. This shop has an amazing selection of different drink options, and doubles as a great place to get some work finished!

This is a great new neighborhood coffee shop and cafe that opened Memorial Day. A full complement of coffee and espresso drinks are expertly prepared and presented with a special flair. Food options include outstanding French pastries, sandwiches and panini. The pleasant street font cafe is also set off by a spectacular blue Chihuly-like chandelier. A fantastic addition to the neighborhood!

Good place.

Very nice place. Beautiful decor. Comfortable furniture.

Great 6am spot for some remote work and coffee+baked goods.

Love this place. Quiet and full of light with friendly staff.

Great atmosphere, comfortable furniture and amazing coffee!

Favorite coffee shop. Love the coffee, sandwiches and pastries...

Great Barista! So kind and lovely!

Lots of seating, good place to work on a laptop

Nice decor and good place to work/study, but pricey

Great local coffee shop with a super friendly staff. Plus they make some delicious coffee and pastries!

Customer service was excellentShot pulled for my Americano excellent —they use La Marzocco, a top ranking espresso machine. This feature is something I always consider when scoping out a new cafe. For me, it produces the best shots.Layout and ambiance was really vibing me. The treat selection was prime —they carried gluten free items for those gluten free patrons (nuflour bakery). Good place to relax and get things done. The cafe is near the University, so you see a lot of students as well as the surrounding neighborhood people.

Nice servers, good chai lattes. A pleasant place to stop by.
