“Laurel is a late-night Seattle gem that transforms coffee culture into cocktail sophistication, earning genuine devotion for their expertly crafted espresso martinis and creative specialty drinks that actually deliver on their promise. The intimate, lounge-like atmosphere strikes a balance between casual and refined, making it an ideal spot for night owls seeking a chic environment with thoughtful service and a menu that goes beyond the expected. Fair pricing paired with exceptional quality—think caviar presentations and house-made ingredients like spicy pickle infusions—makes this an Instagram-worthy destination worth the visit.”

Laurel is the perfect late night spot for those of us night owls who want a chic and conceptual lounge environment with an intimate atmosphere and sophisticated drinks. Come here to enjoy inspired cocktails and lite bites and maybe make some new friends. The service is superb with bartenders who know their stuff both in terms of alcohol and film , since there is a screen usually on playing the evening’s selection. It’s definitely one of my favorite new spots in the city!
I found this place on Instagram. First, the ambiance is nothing like I imagined—it feels more like a corridor. The espresso martini was honestly the worst I’ve ever had. It’s not that hard to make a good espresso martini. There are other cocktail bars and cute coffee spots around here, so we should definitely skip this one.
They make an amazing espresso martini with fresh espresso. The price point is modest but the quality is exceptional. There’s a lot of bars that do a mediocre espresso martini—not this bar. Jacob was a great bartender and every cocktail was phenomenal. I highly recommend Laurel!
Went into this charming spot for happy hour. Their tiny tini and caviar presentation was so cute. Loved the spicy pickle tini and their espresso martini. I will be going back to try more.
This place exceeded my expectations! Very friendly service and they have a huge menu with different types of options and specialty drinks. They stop selling their special drinks after 2 PM. I got the Matcha iced latte with orange syrup, which was very good, subtle compliments in each other well. I don’t think I know another spot that has that. I really enjoyed our 12 ounce cup with their straw. Highly recommend and would come back.
