Crema's Take

“Outer Dark Coffee has cracked the code on clean, balanced espresso that never tastes bitter or burnt—a refreshing departure from much of what you'll find in the Seattle/Tacoma area. Their single-origin and barrel-aged espresso options shine whether you're ordering a carefully pulled shot or a thoughtful pour-over, and the staff's genuine enthusiasm for coffee makes every visit feel personal. Pair that with fresh pastries and a welcoming vibe that invites you to linger, and you've got a specialty spot that locals trust enough to buy beans for home roasting.”

What to expect

Espresso-focused, with a pour-over program, good cold brew. Quick-grab spot. Pastries on the menu.

This coffee is the best I’ve had in the Seattle/Tacoma area! The espresso isn’t bitter or burnt like so much local coffee is. I exclusively buy their beans for home roasting. I hope they continue expanding their partnerships with other locations!

I ordered a 12oz hot latte with the Barrel Aged (I think that’s what it was called) single origin espresso and it did not disappoint! It had such a unique and delicious flavor profile. It was hard keeping myself from turning back to go and get another drink.

I came about the Outer Dark Coffee Co. and absolutely loved my iced Americano. I also got a warmed berry scone, which was delicious. The staff is very friendly.

Artisinal coffee!!! This is a place to take your time and enjoy. No burnt beans here! The Staff here are INCREDIBLE. So grateful they opened on Sundays. Came by in the morning on 9/25/25 and the baristas on hand did a great job. They make sure to keep me going at the Spa on busy…

Tasty drink and pastries, super friendly staff! Visiting from out of state and this was a nice little walk away from the Elks Temple where we were staying. Helpful they were open at 7am since I’m an early riser and nowhere else within walking distance was open. Thank you for…
