TLDR: Above and beyond service, friendly vibes, and great coffee!
Walked in on a quest for beans and some bean juice to get the day started. Was greeted with smiles and friendly welcomes, which is often hard to find in this dark and cruel world. My partner and I ordered a vanilla almond milk latte and an americano. Both drinks were very good. Latte was well balanced and delicious. The americano was smooth and also expertly extracted to give a full flavor profile party across my palate. I picked up a bag of their espresso blend beans and was pleasantly suprised to see how recent their roast date was (I commonly find old beans being sold on the shelves of other stores and it saddens me). The owner then accurately concluded that it would be in my best interest to wait a few days before actually using those beans to allow them to offgas. As I was coming to terms with having to wait to taste these tantalizing beans, the owner unprompted offered to send me on my way with some ready to use beans on the house. This really made my day and they have earned my respect and business for as long as I live in Seattle.
