Crema's Take
“Natalie's excels at creative cold beverages like Vietnamese coffee with taro cold foam and fresh-squeezed sugar cane juice—drinks that justify a trip to Alki Beach on their own. The food is secondary (chicken and waffles and fresh rolls tend toward dry), and service inconsistencies suggest you're paying specialty prices without always getting specialty execution, but the drinks and waterfront setting make it worth a visit if you're in the neighborhood.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection, with creative signature drinks, good cold brew. A quick-grab spot, outdoor seating. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly. Parking available.

All the drinks here are sooooo delicious! The Vietnamese coffee with taro cold foam was so good, and their iced teas are amazing as well. So lucky to have this place on the beach. Everything is handcrafted and you can tell they use high quality ingredients.
Great collection of very unique juices and boba teas. Plus some savory delicious dishes. I tried the sugar cane juice with baby coconut. It was great.
They did a great job moving the line and providing fast service. The fresh squeezed sugar cane juice is a very special find. They have a great variety of bubble teas and ice cream flavors. I tried the spring rolls and really enjoyed them. They have good vegetarian and vegan…
