    Definitely go for the latte! I had a caramel latte that was so delicious I immediately had to get a second one for the road! Literally the best foam I've ever tasted! Also, try the croissants. ☕

    Following instruction from the sign out front, I tried a Maple Syrup Latte made with cold brewed coffee. It was amazing! Also, the free ULTRA FAST public wifi from CondoInternet.net is a bonus!

    Get your morning coffee here (lattes and americanos are A+) and then grab their house-made granola + a scoop of Greek yogurt to-go. It's amazing

    A gem in downtown Bellevue. Love the tall ceiling and the gluten-free cookie is absolutely AMAZING! Tea is ridiculously expensive but the Green Pomegranate is pretty good.

    Finally found my coffee shop in the Eastside. They have stumptown coffee and Nutella brioche. Yum. Digital loyalty cards currently $5 off every 10.

    For my fellow antipodeans, these guys make the best Flat Whites in Bellevue! You should also try their chilli hot chocolate ... Nothing but goodness

    They no longer have a kitchen, so sandwich/salad options are slim. What they do still offer is good. Great atmosphere, customer service, and amazing coffee.
