George Coffee & Pastries
1317 NE 47th St, Seattle, WA
Crema's Take
“This Seattle gem pairs genuinely exceptional croissants—particularly their pistachio variety—with creative specialty drinks like a maple sea salt latte that locals rave about, all served by a remarkably cheerful team in a charming, often-packed space. The pastries are generously sized and they'll warm them up for you, while their cold brew drinks showcase interesting flavor combinations like pistachio with customizable espresso shots. Come early, arrive before 10am to snag a seat, and expect to pay a bit more than typical cafes, but reviewers consistently agree the quality and hospitality make it worth it.”
What to expect
Cold brew standout, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Pastries on the menu.

A little pricey… but croissants are huge and they’ll warm them up for you… Got the maple sea salt special latte, super good.
What stood out from the typical cafe was the staff being exceptionally cheerful and helpful. Super crowded and impossible to find seats though. Due to the high demand, you should visit at or before 10am if you want the full selection of pastries.

Hip little coffee spot with delightfully fun croissants and a cute aesthetic. This was previously the location of a famous seafood and meat purveyor and they have made the space their own. Gets packed with students out the door on weekend mornings.
