Crema's Take
“Ballard Coffee Co. is a pastry-and-breakfast destination that happens to serve excellent coffee—the egg and cheese biscuit is genuinely world-class, and the house-made pastries (cinnamon rolls, pumpkin spice lattes) justify a detour on their own. Skip this if you're a black coffee purist, but if you want specialty drinks and fresh food executed at a consistently high level, this is exactly the kind of neighborhood spot worth making a regular thing.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee. A slow-sit spot, outdoor seating. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly. Parking available.
