North Slope Coffee
618 N 1st St, Tacoma, WA
Crema's Take
“Tucked into Tacoma, this welcoming neighborhood spot thrives on genuine connection—regulars rave about baristas like Megan who remember your name and your dog's favorite treats. While their traditional espresso drinks can be hit-or-miss, the real draw is the relaxed vibe that's perfect for lingering with friends or starting your day on a friendlier note, especially if you've got a four-legged companion in tow.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, quick-grab spot, good for meetings. Dog friendly.
