Editorial Review for Seattle's Best Coffee – by Kamila Przybylski

In Short
From its humble beginnings as a response to the coffee revolution of the 70's to a brand name acquired by Starbucks and recognized nationwide, Seattle's Best continues to serve high-quality coffee in a relaxed atmosphere. Intoxicating smells of bold blends waft through the simply decorated café, where patrons gather to sip on small tables and comfy armchairs. Flavor-infused brews like Hazelnut Cream, Almond Roca, and Crème Brulee draw passionate coffee aficionados to experience new blends with creative touches, while seasonal specialties, teas and an assortment of breakfast pastries and treats round out the menu.

i enjoy getting my daily coffee from here. the staff is always friendly and quick. i don't think i have ever had a bad coffee from here. the manager tabitha is great and always working behind the register. i also love how they recycle their coffee grounds for the public to use. great idea!

If you want to sit down and relax with friends for a cup of coffee, don't go here. It has been completely taken over by folks work out of this location. Laptops and loud cell phone conversations are not my idea of what a coffee shop can be. But if you dig that go for it. This a semi-negative vibe place with most loud conversations on the cynical side.

Pros: Coffee and Location

Cons: No where to sit and the Laptop and Cells have taken over!
