It’s not bad, though I probably wouldn’t go out of my way to go there.
Free WiFi, plenty of seating, lots of food options, fair prices. I just didn’t particularly like my cappuccino (no latte art either, not that I care, just pointing it out for those that do though). I’ll likely give it another shot the next time I go to the museum, if I wanted caffeine!

After many employees left a few months ago, it is under new management.
I’ll have to retract my earlier “best espresso in Seattle.” No espresso machine now. I have no idea why so many employees left or why the Frye permitted the deletion of espresso.
But the place isn’t crowded anymore.

My aunts and cousins sometimes gather in this cafe just to visit...it's a lovely, modern space - spare and light. There is seating for about 30 people, so it's not gigantic but should hold your party.
Casual - get delicious soups and sandwiches here. Soup runs $4/7 for cup/bowl. Sandwiches are imaginative and well made with great ingredients like local Macrina bread. For instance, the Frida sandwich is brie with grapes and walnuts ($9) - I love it. They also have salads and hummus, etc.
Nice, small kid's menu. No item over $5.
Really a delightful, casual and peaceful place for coffee and a bite.

Tried the hot chocolate on a cold rainy day and it was just great. They made from good quality chocolate (and not powder) and the sweetness was balanced. Nice people serving you as well.

Cute cafe...adirable! Menu is tiny and limited. 3 workers to 2 customers and it took 20 minutes to get a cookie and sandwich to go. Not the place for a work day lunch if time is of the essence!

We stop here whenever we can. The food is delicious, made well and with great care. The service is just as genuine. The variety of offerings and quality of fresh ingredients are hard to find and worth every penny. Seek out this gem, you won't be disappointed!

Really delicious! Has options for everyone which includes vegan and gluten free. You also can check out the beautiful artwork at the Frye art museum, which is an amazing free resource.

Very peaceful. Food all looked very good. We had pasties that were delicious. Coffee was very good. The espresso was the highlight. Could be the best in Seattle.
