down pour coffee bar

On a whim, I decided to visit this coffee shop, which was far from both my home and office. I was delighted by the cozy atmosphere, the friendly staff, and the delicious coffee. The staff were courteous and attentive, and they made me feel welcome. The coffee was smooth and rich, and I savored the Mocha, which had the perfect balance of sweetness and bitterness. I would love to go back again. This coffee shop is a hidden gem, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quality coffee experience.

I had a "layover" in Redmond. I asked for recommendation, and was told down pour. It was a great suggestion. Warm and welcoming space.

I had a dirty London fog (Seattle fog), and their marzipan latte. Lastly, she sent me off with loose peach rooibus tea, for later. Glad I visited.

Really cool coffee shop!

The interior is fun, with clouds on the ceiling, and bright furniture. There are tables in the middle, some higher tables/seating towards the back and a bar top as well.

Ordered a macchiato which came served in the most adorable polish pottery. I collect polish pottery, so that alone would give me cause to come back. The espresso was velvet and smooth and not bitter as it shouldn’t be.

Parking is pretty plentiful and shared with only a few other businesses. There were probably 10+ other customers while I was there and it was still fairly quiet/comfortable. I got a lot of work done!

Overall, I would absolutely recommend down pour for a nice caffeine boost in a lovely space.

They open at 8 AM and their coffee is really good.

I love the charming atmosphere! The coffee, tea, and pastries are fantastic as well. I come here most days before work and am never disappointed. I just wish they served fresh-made breakfast sandwiches!

Best Chai 👌so glad this place survived post covid. The sleepy monk beans are a perfect espresso. Scottie dog chai is the best. Cozy fireplace to chat and sip or read. 💞
Yall are still the best. Love the new gluten-free cookies.

3 stars for a really delicious coffee, otherwise this place is left to be desired. Stopped in for coffee and breakfast on my way out of town and was NOT greeted with at all. The front girl taking orders rolled her eyes at us and barely said 2 words acting annoyed the entire time. The service was very slow for a busy coffee shop. I’ve managed and worked as a barista for the last 10 years and this was pretty shocking for being a front street establishment in Kirkland. I’ll chalk it up to a bad day, but just remember the impression you make can last on a customer who otherwise would have come back for the good coffee.

My daughter had been bugging me since 6th grade to stop in here before school. Well, now shes in 10th, we did. Really great mochas, thick and creamy and not too sweet. Chi was good and I heard the xoxo was excellent as well! May have to come back before school sometime.

GREAT coffee! Clean atmosphere, cool vibe, DELICIOUS scones! Just wish they opened at 6 so us gym folks could grab a cup before work! Lavender latte was so smooth and creamy I want 30 of them. Enjoy!

This place has a weird vibe. The coffee is fine but the flow of the order counter is set up weird. There is an empty fridge that isn’t being used next to the cash wrap and the counter has a barricade of random tables. It looks like this was a system made for COVID that they kept for some reason or didn’t improve upon even though it’s been 3 years. The decor is stuck in FRIENDS 1992. There is furniture stacked in the corners. Overall my point is that it isn’t an inviting place to hang out.
