What People Are Saying
from Google & Yelp"I discovered this adorable coffee shop on TikTok while planning my trip to Seattle, and it did not disappoint! Within two days, I visited twice, as I was completely obsessed! From my hotel, it was roughly a 20-minute walk, but it was absolutely worth it- rain or shine! The coffee was delicious, the service was excellent, and the shop itself was so aesthetically pleasing! I recommend getting their Stone Ground Chocolate iced with your choice of milk- I love either 2% or whole! If you have the opportunity to go, don't miss out because it truly is a gem! ☕🧊🍫"
"Such a cute little spot! One of the best atmospheres of a cafe I’ve ever been to. Their coffees are delicious and they’ve got a Photo Booth so you can capture some cute memories! It gets quite busy with a line up usually out the door and parking can be a bit scarce since it’s limited street parking only."
"A new gem in Seattle! Owner Ish and husband built such a cozy corner cafe with Mexico-inspired drinks. I especially enjoyed the chair with great back support, artistic corner shop and second-floor seatings."
"the space is SO cute, perfect for doing my online class and work! delicious drinks, super friendly service - oriented us to seating options unprompted! no extra charge for plant-based options and vegan horchata is my dream 💖"
"I’m sorry but the matcha is not it 😭 I watched them make it- they take out like an industrial tub of questionable quality matcha from the back and whisk it(?) all at once and put it in a squeeze bottle and just squeeze on top of milk. Had to drink it anyways cus it was $9. The coffee looked really good, that’s why I’m not giving one star. Would not recommend matcha 😭 edit: forgot to mention service was really friendly tho!"
"Super delicious coffee with Latin inspired flavors and fresh tasty pastries! This cafe is super vibey and has a chill ambiance. They showcase local artists..."
