Crema's Take
“This tiny downtown spot punches above its weight with carefully sourced Broadcast beans and a genuinely musical vibe—the owner-barista is a drummer who curates the soundtrack as thoughtfully as the pour-overs. The catch is real: four seats means it's strictly a solo affair or quick stop, prices run a bit high for the neighborhood, and a few reviewers found the roast darker than expected. If you're downtown and want quality coffee with personality in a space that feels more like a friend's kitchen than a cafe, it's worth a visit; just don't come expecting to linger with a group.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with a pour-over program. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu.

Beautiful little shop with good coffee. There are only 4 seats, so this is not great for a group. Instead, it’s perfect for a solo break or during your commute.
This lovely small cafe uses Broadcast beans — my fav out of the whole town! Coffee was great and there were sweet bites going well with it. The owner was also really nice. If you need to hang out until the Benaroya concert starts, come here instead of David’s (which is always…
Great Cafe named after Bernard Purdy’s ghost notes. Barista/owner is a drummer. Plays great music. Pours the coffee with care. If you like good food and good music this place is for you. Skip the internationally known homogenized beans and try this place instead. Two locations…
