Zoka Coffee
351 Boren Ave N, Seattle, WA
Crema's Take
“Zoka is a buzzing South Lake Union hub where Amazon employees and neighborhood coffee lovers overlap, creating an energy that can feel either welcoming or overwhelming depending on when you visit. The baristas craft solid espresso drinks and creative specialty beverages like matcha tea, though service consistency seems to dip during peak hours when the crowd thickens. If you're seeking a reliable spot for a quick specialty coffee and don't mind the corporate-adjacent vibe, it's worth a visit—just maybe aim for off-peak hours to catch the friendlier side of the team.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, matcha and tea options too. A quick-grab spot, good for meetings. Wifi.

I might be biased because I work in the building and I get free coffee here as an employee. But these guys are great. The staff is super friendly and nice. They have so many options to choose from, they have different kinds of milk, coffee, tea and matcha as well. They carry a…
