Ladder Coffee Roasters
2823 N Monroe St, Spokane, WA
Crema's Take
“This espresso-focused roastery in downtown Spokane has earned a devoted following for its exceptional coffee quality and thoughtfully curated atmosphere—regulars rave about returning multiple times per visit and travelers making it a summer pilgrimage stop. While the coffee and baked goods consistently impress, it's the combination of cozy fireplace seating, genuinely friendly staff, and reliable wifi that makes Ladder an ideal spot to linger for work or conversation, though adventurous palates might want to stick with their core espresso offerings rather than seasonal variations. The full breakfast menu and pastries round out an experience that feels less like a quick caffeine stop and more like a genuinely welcoming third place.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with a pour-over program. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu.

Cozy place for brunch. Coffee was good but any seasonal or flavored coffee options fell short for me. Food was fantastic!
It was my first time visiting Ladder. I love the atmosphere. It's cute, cozy, and a chill place to grab coffee. We got a scone and their breakfast sandwich. The scone was flavorful and was "moist" for a scone. It was pretty good. The breakfast sandwich didn't have a ton of…
