Grumpy Bean
910 Stewart St, Seattle, WA
Crema's Take
“Grumpy Bean leans into its charmingly curmudgeonly name as part of its Seattle personality, serving excellent coffee and creative seasonal drinks in a bright space perfect for people-watching near the convention center. Beyond the coffee, the homemade empanadas and pastries like their almond croissants are standout reasons to linger, whether you're squeezing in a quick caffeine hit or settling in for a longer sit with a view of the city.”

Super close to my hotel so I stopped by for a quick coffee. I was put off by the hospitality but then remembered the name 😭 they really are grumpy, which is a vibe because I too would be grumpy at 7 AM. The coffee is good though and they have a customization setup which is my fave cafe feature! They’re super fast, so the service isn’t bad it’s just different. It’s cute inside and they have a lot of merch.
The coffees were great! The service was quick and very nice! Pleasant vibe! It’s nice place to look outside and watch the city. I recommend the seasonal drinks. Won’t disappoint!
I've been stopping in on the place for a month now and I've enjoyed everything about this spot. Service, food, atmosphere is great, check out the hand made empanadas they are amazing 👏🏼
I would imagine they get lots of tourists wandering through here with its proximity to hotels and convention center. That being said I expected a little more hospitality wandering in, obviously not being a local. Owell. The coffee was good. I was curious about snickerdoodle latte and it didn't disappoint. I guess the place lived up to it's name... Grumpy.
I’d recommend this place. The grumpy bean had great coffee and I really enjoyed the almond croissant. The staff was very friendly and the place was nice and clean. It was a cute layout and I thought it flowed well. I liked seeing a playoff bracket of coffees on the wall. Really cute idea! I plan on stopping by next time I’m in town.
