    London Fog with oat milk
    Shaye V.

    Don't mind if I keep the high rating up for Copper Tree! I got the London Fog with oat milk and it was very yummy. They have about 4 different variants of a London fog! I hope to try them all very soon. They don't over sweeten their drinks, which is always a good sign. My partner got a spinach breakfast burrito and loved it! The space is small, but the service and beverages/food is mighty. Definitely add this to your list of coffee

    I stopped at this place a month ago and this is a cute litte coffee shop with all things sustainable and environment friendly. I really like their coffee and the owner was very considerate in helping me understand different coffee flavours.

    First visit...thanks to Maria and Elizabeth, I finally detoured on 10th Ave E! (1/16/21)

    I'm always drove past this indie cafe on 10th Ave E headed elsewhere. Two Yelp Elite friends Maria and Elizabeth vetted it, which was duly noted as a bookmark. Finally, I pulled over and checked out Copper Tree Cafe on 1/16/21. Again, you know the pandemic routine - mask up and queue up in the socially distanced line. When it was my turn, the barista (perhaps the owner?) was very upbeat, friendly, and welcoming. Someone worthy of a longer conversation, but I noticed the people lined up behind me. I received a well crafted mocha and a pain au chocolat. Copper Tree Cafe partners with another indie bake shop for assorted baked goods. I also started a stamp/punch card. This is a lovely gem located in North Capitol Hill. Sometimes slowing down and pulling over is a worthy endeavor.

    Total seating: Three small tables, three counter seats, a few outdoor tables on busy 10th Av E. There's a bathroom out of photo at left.

    Tiny coffee house serving excellent coffee at reasonable prices. My tasty 16-ounce soy latte (they also have oat milk, vegans and dairy-allergic folks) cost $5.50 which is a great value for Seattle. There's usually a long line out the door here but when I went on a Thursday morning there were only two other parties and I was able to sit inside at a table. Nice vibe with music and live plants.

    Raspberry Italian soda and a (thick) slice of pound cake! ($7)

    Copper Tree cafe is a small North Capitol Hill neighborhood cafe tucked on the most north side of 10th Ave along a group of other local shops in the area. It's a small space with just 8-9 seating max bit the people in the cafe are sure friendly and try to make engaging conversation with you. I actually stopped by to get my watches fixed at a shop right opposite of this cafe, so this place serves as a convenient spot for me to come chill and wait while the watch shop gets my watches fixed. I got an Italian soda and a pound cake and the prices and the taste were reasonable. Wouldn't mind stopping by this place again if I'm in the area, especially given a friendly service.

    Honey lavender iced latte with oat milk and a chorizo breakfast burrito.

    The coffee and chai were absolutely amazing. I've never had chai so well made. The barista was awesome, he gave my partner and I a discount when he found out we were touring apartments nearby as a "welcome to the neighborhood". He knew everyone's name and the atmosphere was so home-like. 10/10 would recommend coming here, if not for the drinks, then to feel like you're talking to an old friend.

    A bright light on a dreary day--from the coffee to the barista.

    This little neighborhood jewel was a welcome sight on a dreary day. I like their walk-up window, which is great for pandemic safety. The barista was friendly and cheerful which made the gloomy day bearable. They have amazing coffee (the honey lavender latte is delicious), and reasonably-sized burritos that you don't have to name and diaper. Parking was easy on an early Thursday morning and I liked the general vibe of the neighborhood. I found Copper Tree Cafe by aimlessly wandering north down Broadway and then not stopping once I hit Roy (it's actually on 10th). Copper Tree gives me old fashioned Seattle-back-in-the-day vibes, and indeed, I was strolling down memory lane along Broadway prior to finding it. Don't be fooled by the Seattle Freeze. This is Northwest Nice at it's finest!

They also have these adorable, beautiful fruit sandwiches on display. I also saw they have savoury bento items on the menu. We tried the hojicha soft serve ($6) and it was amazing. It's really just vanilla soft serve with a syrup of a flavor of your choosing - sesame, matcha, hojicha, etc. We were way too full to get the full sundae but we definitely want to get that next. You can have mochi topping too.

They currently offer Matcha, Hoji-Tea, Kuro-Goma (black sesame), and Yuzu (Japanese citrus). The shop itself is very small since it's basically a window shop, either renting space from or connected to Tamari Bar. It's more like a little dessert stand located on the restaurant's patio area, with only a few outdoor tables available. The soft serve was okay, but not as creamy as I was hoping for, and it melted pretty quickly. If you decide to add a syrup flavor, I'd recommend asking for only a small amount. Mine came absolutely drowning in syrup, and honestly, the flavor tasted pretty artificial and overpowering.

    If only every matcha spot was like this. Nana's has just about everything matcha you could want (or…read morethink of). From matcha lattes, to dessert options, to pastries and made-to-order meals. They also have other matcha / green tea options and hojicha drinks if you're looking for something different. The staff is great. I had a few questions because I couldn't decide what to order, and everyone was friendly and helpful - I was even able to add corn flakes to my matcha soft serve (which isn't listed on the menu), so it was nice to know I could customize it to my liking! The matcha tiramisu was the best I've had, and the hojicha latte with oat milk was just right. The flavor was nice and strong without being overpowering. Everything I had here truly stood out! I liked the variety on the menu and all of the different options. - it's extensive and you could find anything for everyone. It's one of the more memorable matcha spots I've been to, and I'd definitely stop by again the next time I'm in Seattle. If you love matcha like I do, definitely add this place to your list. I don't think you'll be disappointed.

    I hadn't been back to Nana's Green Tea in about two years, so I was excited to stop by again during…read moremy Seattle trip. Thankfully they are open today on the Fourth of July (they will just close a little earlier for the holiday), and I was happy to see that not much has changed since my last visit. Without even realizing it, I ended up ordering the exact same drink I got the first time: a Matcha Float with mochi. I guess you really can't go wrong with it because it's still just as creamy and satisfying as I remembered. The only tiny downside is that it only comes with three small mochi balls, so for almost $9 I wish there were a few more. However, the quality of the matcha is consistently excellent, sooo I don't regret coming back. They have wonderful customer service too! The employee helping me at the register was incredibly patient while I stood there trying to decide what to order. As an awkward introvert, I always feel a little flustered when ordering, but she never made me feel rushed or uncomfortable. She asked my sweetness preference for the Matcha Float, whether I wanted to dine in or take everything to go, and even carefully packed up my yuzu green tea packet with the rest of my order. She was very kind and thoughtful so just wanna say I really appreciate how welcoming she was. Even from my last Seattle visit two years ago, I still remember the employees being helpful and friendly here. I also have to recommend their desserts from my previous visit. (I skipped the sweets this time due to my budget but I still suggest picking up some of their sweets!). The Matcha Basque Cheesecake and the Matcha Tiramisu were both absolutely delicious, and I still remember how amazing they tasted even two years later. The tiramisu is only around $7 and is definitely worth trying if you're a matcha lover. This visit, I picked up their yuzu green tea packet to take home (last time, I got the hojicha). Each packet contains 15 individual tea bags and costs about $10 (not bad for how much tea is in each tea bag). They also sell matcha powder and other tea goodies. I'm looking forward to brewing the yuzu green tea at home since a good cup of hot tea is always comforting, especially when I'm sick (I've been recovering from a cold so tea has been a lifesaver to warm me up!). I actually stopped by for lunch since I didn't eat breakfast, and ordered the Sukiyaki Don (it was much more satisfying than I expected). I was craving a beef bowl and Nana's was one of the few places in the area within walking distance from my work, that was actually open for the holiday today, lucky me! It came with miso soup and a soft-boiled egg, and I was pleasantly surprised to find tofu and mushrooms in the bowl alongside the beef. It left me FULL, my tummy happy, heck yeah. Costs almost $20 but worth satisfying a craving. I won't lie.. I somehow managed to spend about $40 today between my meal, drink, and tea to take home. More than I intended to spend but no regrets, because everything was delicious and the quality has remained consistently high over the years. The only thing that made my visit a little uncomfortable wasn't the café itself. There were quite a few homeless individuals lingering around the front of the building, so I decided against dining out front like I had originally planned since I wanted to enjoy the nice weather, but one of them was panhandling me so I promptly left (thankfully I asked for my order to be packaged for takeout). That's obviously outside of the café's control, and it didn't affect the food or service at all. They still had many seats available inside but probably because it's the holiday. If I recall, the place was packed during the afternoon when I last visited on a weekday. I will still say that Nana's Green Tea continues to be one of my favorite matcha spots whenever I'm in Seattle. Between the consistently high-quality matcha, delicious meals and desserts, excellent selection of teas to bring home, and genuinely exemplary customer service, it's a place I'll happily keep returning to whenever I'm back in town and have the time to visit.

They lean into forward thinking flavors, and present it without pretension. The vibes are laid back, but when it's busy you are reminded that you live in a city.

We live in such a beautiful place and people just throw their trash on the ground or leave the area they ate at outside messy. This slows down seating for the next person amongst other things. I'll save the cultural critiques embedded into my "food" reviews in our city for restaurants that aren't doing well. They keep things fun by rotating seasonal soft serve flavors. A lot of the sandwiches are fully loaded and you'll have to use both hands to keep the spillage in check.
