Slow Day Coffee
2103 3rd Ave, Seattle, WA
Crema's Take
“Slow Day is a thoughtful Seattle institution for specialty coffee lovers, offering an impressive rotating selection from notable roasters alongside meticulously prepared pour overs and espresso drinks that showcase the beans' nuance. The shop has earned devoted fans for its fair pricing, attentive baristas, and willingness to break from typical cafe trends, though some guests have noted occasional inconsistencies with customizations like milk substitutes. If you're seeking a place that treats coffee seriously without pretension, this is where Seattle's coffee nerds gather.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with a pour-over program, matcha and tea options too. Slow-sit spot.
