Piedmont Café
1215 Seneca St Suite 100, Seattle, WA
Crema's Take
“Nestled in the historic Piedmont Hotel lobby in First Hill, this cafe has lovingly preserved the building's architectural character with soaring vaulted ceilings, arched windows, and lush greenery that transport you back in time. The welcoming staff, quality drip coffee and espresso drinks, and thoughtfully prepared pastries pair perfectly with the unhurried, plant-filled atmosphere that makes it equally ideal for a focused work session, quiet conversation, or simply lingering over a cup. Cash-only and genuinely quiet, it's a rare Seattle find that honors both specialty coffee and the almost-forgotten art of taking your time.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Pastries on the menu. Wifi. Cash only.

This is a really great place to come if you’re trying to just pass time, relax, chat, or get some work done. There is a ton of seating, it’s fairly quiet, and the drinks are really nice. It’s a pretty popular photo spot, so there were about 3 groups (including me) taking photos…
Very pleasantly surprised with this place. The building and decor were on point. Perfect play to get some work done, people watch, or chat with a friend. The food and coffee were outstanding. I had an almond croissant wheel and it was absolutely perfect. The texture was crunch,…
