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.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection, with creative signature drinks, good cold brew. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu.
