Chaco Coffee & Tea
100 4th Ave N ste 165, Seattle, WA
Crema's Take
“Nestled in Seattle's bustling touristy corridor, Chaco is a hidden gem that elevates tea culture with an impressive selection of loose leaf teas and creative signature drinks like the fragrant Jasmine Silk Latte and the intriguing Phoenix Oolong Latte. The welcoming staff, including standout baristas like Karen, craft thoughtfully balanced drinks without excessive sweetness, while the gallery-like space filled with local art and sculptures invites you to linger and explore. Whether you're warming up from a street walk or diving deep into a proper kung fu tea experience, this is a destination for tea lovers seeking something more intentional than your typical café.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection, with creative signature drinks, good cold brew. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings.

Chaco replaced the previous boba place, Milkvue. It's definitely a hidden gem in a touristy area. We got an iced jasmine matcha latte and an amber drift latte. Both were very good, not too sweet at all, even without any adjustments. They had little samples of different drinks…
