Great coffee, fast service even with a lone out the door wait time is minimal. Their Viena latte is absolutely fabulous 😍
Good space to sit and sip. Their Chai latte is a fave - albeit small.
5 star experience - esp since I love their speciality drinks, the pastries are amaZing, and nice that they have options for food with more substance (egg sandwiches, avocado toast, quiche, etc). However, it does seem slightly more expensive than other coffee shop options.
Wow love this place. Awesome large work spaces, clean, tasty coffee and breakfast.
More money in decorations than friendly staff or coffee. Go somewhere authentic, this bougie storefront is just that.
The coffee shop where everybody knows your name. This place is like the Cheers of coffee. Gorgeous inside, the coffee is good, the pastry selection was fun, and the sandwiches are excellent. We are new to the area, but the baristas knew nearly everyone local that walked in. Very sweet ☺️
Great coffee and pastry served by nice people. The only disadvantage is that it's such a popular place to work, you might have trouble finding a spot--but then again, I've always managed to sit somewhere. I recommend the oddly named Director Snail.
I love this place. The espresso is consistently excellent, milk consistency and temp is on... These guys are doing coffee right. I will insert a request for gluten free options for snacking 😉
Robust espresso drinks at this beautifully furnished coffee house. Loved their blueberry danish but the plain croissant was bland.
Cozy shop with great coffee. Very limited seating due to small space but I think if they rearranged the tables and got rid of the bulky furniture set (lol) it could be improved. Great playlist and friendly staff!
Venture Coffee is a place I often visit when in Ballard. We get our standard oat milk lattes and their delicious Egg, Cheese, & Bacon Bun. These pics aren't pretty, but let me tell you the flavors are so good, you'll be happy I posted this horrible picture. Bacon, egg, havarti cheese, arugula, and (the most delicious) garlic aioli. Pro tip: add hot sauce to the sandwich. Just trust me - go and enjoy!
Chill vibes with dark brown woody decor and plants spotted throughout. Friendly staff. The front windows open up, which I can imagine would be great during summer. Had the matcha latte, which was well made and tasty.
Great breakfast and coffee spot. Gorgeous playlists to keep you chilling with your coffee. Busy enough for the typical coffee shop vibe but enough folks just passing through that the noise inside is at a good hum.
I enjoy trying out different coffee shops in the Seattle area and Venture Coffee Co is easily one of my favorite places to go, the coffee is consistently delicious.
Lavendar latte was amazing. Great and strong lavendar flavour and taste. Food was surprisingly decent for a café but was a bit too expensive.
Best vanilla latte in Ballard! For sure coming back here. They make their own syrups which is a huge plus. Fun flavors too!
Back in Seattle after 105 days on the water. I like this place; great atmosphere. I don't care about fair trade, eco friendly, blah blah. If the coffee is sour, I'm not coming back. If the guy behind the counter who talks with his coworkers very loud, nonstop, could expend some of that energy on cleaning the filthy restrooms, the place would be even nicer.
They have such nice, airy atmosphere. It was busy, but wasn't noisy. Somehow a very relaxing place for a cup of coffee. I was also very pleasantly surprised by their baked goods selection. It is from Freya bakery, really delicious stuff. Yummmm. Stop by if you are looking for a coffee with a treat around Ballard. They also nice seating area outside.
Tipped 25% at the register on the pricy (IIRC $16) salmon toast option, 20 mins later they still have not made it. I ask, they say it is on the way (no acknowledgement of them forgetting about it) and make it quickly in front of me. Food itself was mid.
Best coffee shop in Ballard. Hands down. As a virtual worker I have tried nearly every coffee shop in Seattle, this is the only place I will work from. If you are visiting Seattle its the perfect capsule of Seattle coffee culture. Unlike most coffee shops they make their own syrups and you can tell. Their brown sugar vanilla latte turned me into a coffee drinker. Their baristas are always nice and the perfect amount of chatty. The coffee shop is filled with regulars, dog's making guest appearances, and outlets. Alex, the manager could not be more of a warm presence.
