Fog & Fern Coffee House
4219 6th Ave SE, Lacey, WA
Crema's Take
“Fog & Fern is a beloved Lacey institution where the coffee craft and kitchen work equally hard—expect expertly pulled espresso and thoughtful pour overs alongside house-made pastries and sandwiches that people genuinely crave (the turkey pesto has a devoted following). The space strikes that rare balance of being spacious and welcoming enough for a quiet morning with your laptop, yet so popular with locals that you'll want to arrive early, especially on weekends. Their homemade syrups and creative drinks like the Chai Frosty Fern show they're not content being just another coffee stop.”

This place is a gem! Great coffee, delicious sandwiches and pastries, which are all made in house. I feel like that’s hard to find these days. My go to is the turkey pesto sandwich. And the shop itself is super cozy and comfortable as well, the plants and decor make it feel homey and a nice place to get some work done. Highly recommend!
The turkey pesto was delicious and had plenty of good flavor. The bacon cheddar and egg sandwich was so good as well. We also had their chai frosty fern which grew on me as I drank it.
Excellent place. Wonderful drinks. The food is notably delicious. Very welcoming space. Everyone else in town knows too! Which is why it's always packed. The parking lot will fill entirely during peakinside. You will have to park down the street. People like to sit and chat inaide. The crowd is a lot more tolerable when it's summer and the outdoor seating is possible. During rain season, prepare to rub elbows and shoulders with 50 of your new best friends. I suggest they swap those big leather chairs out for a small table 2 seats kinda deal, because there's a clear desire for it. Keep up the great work yall!
Nice coffee shop with plenty of space! They pour good shots and have a variety of coffees as well. They make some of their inhouse flavorings which is nice, but their mochas use monin and are very sweet - great if you like a sweet mocha. The cafe gets very busy so the wait might be a while and it's good to double check your order (like always). Friendly baristas with good recommendations.
TLDR; really good coffee and breakfast sandwiches We came in for a small bite and some coffee after an early drive. For a Sunday morning, the cafe was fairly full with lots of customers with their laptops out and working. We ordered an iced mocha, a cortado, banana bread and a vegetarian breakfast sandwich. The coffees are brewed really well, the roast is dark but not bitter. The breakfast sandwich we had was really good too - they warm it up in a panini press which gives it a nice crunch, the flavors are really nice and simple too. I almost regret getting just one to share between the two of us. The banana bread wasn’t to my taste (but also I’m not a fan of strong banana favours, however my partner loved it.
