Cascade Coffee Works

Nice place, accessible to the general public (you can't get into all the coffee places around here that show up on Google). Good coffee, places to sit but often crowded, as it's Amazonia. Prices are a little higher but... no tipping!

Excellent coffee and very courteous staff... Vibrant and bright ambience... I'm a regular here since they have opened recently. Love my cappuccino here. Would definitely recommend this location..

I've been frequenting Seattle Coffee Works (and Ballard, Capitol Hill, and now Cascade) for years. The owner, Sebastian, was in the store more often in the early days and was able to explain the difference between the various beans he sourced from all over the world. After a bit of experimentation at the "Slow Bar" I determined that I prefer East African beans, grown at high altitude, lightly roasted. They sell coffee tins to store your beans in that enable them to keep and reuse the coffee bags. They save money on bags which allows them to offer a discount plus a free drink. I occasionally purchase beans from other shops but even with all the fabulous coffee shops and roasters in Seattle, it's rare that the whole experience comes close to Cascade (Seattle/Ballard/Capitol Hill) Coffee Works. Thank you Sebastian for showing me that there is better coffee in the world than Foldgers "brewed" in a percolator. (That nasty swill is what I grew up with. No more!)

Great atmosphere, friendly barista, perfect coffee… deserves nothing less than a 5 star.

Love this place! Baristas are incredibly nice and the interior is a great, sunny spot to work.

Friebdly staffs and they know how to coffee :) I visit at least once or twice a week.

I tried a bunch of coffee shops in this neighborhood while visiting a friend, and this was easily my favorite. It was one of two coffee shops which gave me two options of brewed drip coffees including a single origin, and consistently had the coffee that I preferred (lighter roasts, citrusy in flavor).

The service was terrible. We ordered slow bar, which they interpret as they will start making when there is no line. After 10 minutes they had not even started to make our drink. Barista thought we were crazy for thinking that it was first come first serve. Was extremely rude and argumentative. Will never return.
