Caffe Ladro - Bothell

5 staff members twittling around and no one communicates properly. I ordered a mocha and pastry and no one tells me how long it will be. Where to wait for it? Will they bring it to my table? Is it for here or to go?

No incentive to sign up for a membership card. Sounds like a chore for both me and cashier. Practically talked out of that.

I finish my snack and see 1 garbage can and no where to bus my own dish. Walk to counter. No one makes eye contact, pretending to ignore me so I just sit the dirty things on a random counter in arms reach. No words said to me.

You get the sense that the kids working there just collectively didn’t care.

I leave a 3 Star because the coffee was good. The pastry was good.

I can’t imagine what excuse could possibly be used when you have 5 staff members behind the counter & not any line, just me. About 4 came in after me. They all got their food. I still was clueless about my snack and I finally ask. I’d say about 5 minutes maybe more went by. I was not timing. I don’t mind waiting, you have to communicate.

Usually I like it here but their cold brew is terribly bitter and almost undrinkable.

I have dairy issues and every single time I come in the coffee shop. I ask for almond milk in my coffee. And the cashier always say we at are all out of almond milk. We have hemp milk or soy milk. I don't like any of those milks except almond milk. This happens to me the 3rd time every time when I come in. If this ever happens again. I will speak to the manager that they need to stalk up more of almond milk.

Wonderful coffee and tasty treats. The lounge area seems a bit crammed with all the tables, more chairs rather than big tables taking up all the room would be nice, but that's my only complaint. Friendly staff and quick service.

I feel lucky to be within walking distance of my favorite coffee shop. When at Ladro, don't bother getting a corporate-franchise-style coffee-flavored milkshake to disguise the repulsive bite of burnt, poor coffee; get coffee. Here it's rich, smooth, and pulled right every time. Their coffee is never burnt/dark roast, but medium or light, and if you do venture to a soy latte, know that the first sip tastes like a marshmallow.

Don't get me started on the staff, who are both knowledgeable and friendly. The space they have is relaxed, yet constantly moving, a good place to get work done. If you can spare 30 seconds of your day to get a fantastic coffee over getting rushed out the door with mediocrity, choose Ladro. The good day is made better by a sip of quality.

. Difficult to reach there . Atmosphere was dark & dingy. Very few parking spots. Pastries not good or interesting.

I like cafe ladro espresso taste. Espresso is extracted very well. Not too heavy, not too light, just right on middle. Ladro bean is one of my list for my home espresso machine also.

One of my favorite places to grab coffee. I like the generous outdoor seating area and friendly staff.

It's hard for me to find coffee worse than Starbucks, but this Caffe Ladro achieved that low bar. The flavor and temp was just off, on a simple Americano. Only giving it 3 stars for the barista who was friendly, and for the cleanliness of the cafe. Lots of sitting room and no blaring music like Starbucks.

The service is great here and the food is delicious! This is the place for any novelist to type those stories they want to but just couldn't find the right quiet spot. It is also an awesome place to be with friends.
