Where they not only know your name, but also know your drink(s). Well worth the time to find them inside City Hall.
Jon and Charlie are both great in what they do. They are always cheerful, welcoming, and accommodating. Thank you for your excellent customer service! Gigatt!
I've been slowly making my way thru all of the coffee shops Seattle has to offer and this, by far, is one of the best.
I ordered a 16oz Americano with a double shot (it comes standard with one shot) for only $2.85.
Is the coffee the most complex, nuanced, world-class single origin on the market? Nope. Did it offer a symphony of flavors and textures like so many espresso shops these days try to market themselves as having? Again, not at all.
But was it just a simple, no frills, unpretentious and good cuppa' coffee that stayed tasty throughout the entire cup? Abso-friggin'-lutely. And for less than $3! (Not including a tip -- always tip your baristas.)
It's everything you could want in a morning coffee shop -- dirt cheap, a great product, and a pleasant, whimsical atmosphere, along with extremely down-to-earth service. The barista seemed genuinely grateful when I took a punch card.
My only gripe is the place isn't the easiest to find, being in City Hall, but spending the extra few minutes to locate the entrance on Cherry Street was worth it with every sip. I think I've found my new favorite coffee shop in Seattle.
If you're on a time crunch, on a budget, or just want to grab a simple, straight forward, and delicious drink, just go here.
Great coffee & service at City Grind Espresso.
I would try the El Mocha Picante!!! If this don't wake you up, nothing will. I've turned several people onto this drink and they love it.
Excellent service and coffee every time! Bonus: Has an extensive variety of sugar free syrups.
