Chai Sutra
818 Stewart St, Seattle, WA
Crema's Take
“This Seattle gem wraps you in the warmth of authentic Indian café culture, where carefully crafted chai and creative specialty drinks are served in a thoughtfully designed space that feels like a cozy escape. The owners have created something genuinely special here—a late-opening spot perfect for lingering over matcha tea or unique snacks while soaking in the homey, minimalist ambiance that keeps regulars coming back. Whether you're settling in with your laptop or meeting friends, the genuine hospitality and cultural authenticity make Chai Sutra feel less like a café and more like visiting someone's thoughtfully curated home.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Open late.
