One of my favorite coffee shops in all of Seattle. Has great snacks, coffee, beer, kombucha, tea, service, and atmosphere.

Great coffee! You can also get beer or wine. There are lots of places to work but it can get crowded. The food looked good and the music was on point.

Pricier cafe, especially being so close to UW, but it is good. I go back to it somewhat regularly for the atmosphere and because it has good coffee.

Update:
Tried again, as I used to love this place. The flavor of my coffee was good, but the espresso is still very weak. Ordered an 8oz Americano, specified two shots, and was still served a single shot. Far weaker than a standard double anywhere else.
I've had this problem with multiple baristas, so I have to assume at this point that it is a conscious decision from the management.
If you insist on serving weak shots, please put up a sign or something explaining why and how you brew differently from every other shop. If I have to specify two ristrettos or whatever term you want, I can.
Update:
Prices has gone up (which is fine) but the coffee quality has dropped. The espresso is much more bitter than it used to be. Last time I went in, the barista only pulled two shots rather than the three I had paid for.
When asked about this, he made up some nonsense about pulling double shots. To be clear, he only filled two shot glasses (I saw the pour). A long (or double) pull is not the same as two short pulls, the grounds were the same. Also, even if he had pulled a pair of doubles, that would still have not been what I had ordered.
Americano was definitely weak. Not happy about that.
Original review: Its a touch pricey, but the coffee is excellent, and the food is pretty good too.

One of many cafes on the Ave, this one is above average. Okay for studying if you bring head phones. The coffee and Atmosphere are good, but no one's comes here for a meal.
