    Came here at around 8 in the morning, the spot was pretty decently packed with about 2 people in line ahead of us. The place is super nice and pretty inside and they even have a couple of tables outdoors with a cover above. There are people working and just hanging out and people grabbing to go. The service was very quick and friendly. We ended up ordering a few items, including 2 drinks a ham and cheese croissant and a donut, it seems that they source their pastries from macrina bakery. Overall i really like the drinks and the vibes here but i wouldn't recommend the food. Would def come back, pleasant spot. S'mores mocha - 8.5/10. Lot of whipped cream which they asked if I wanted and I said sure, I didn't get a very strong heavy s'mores flavor. But it's a really good mocha, not too sweet or anything. Peach sparkling lemonade - 9/10: just really good Maple bar: 5/10. Its fine. Taste like a donut from a grocery store, good but nothing special Ham and cheese croissant - 6/10 we asked them to heat it up for us and they did which was awesome , but besides that it didn't taste like anything special and was something I could very easily make at home. The croissant didn't taste or any of the ingredients didn't have anything special but it was nice and warm.

    I have frequented this location many times, but forgot to leave a review. I love this coffee shop and the location. It's a perfect place to walk to and splurge for a coffee and food. The baristas are friendly and the drinks are delicious. I recently ordered a vanilla latte. The milk was steamed perfectly and it wasn't overly sweet. There is space inside and outdoors.

    I loveee going here to grab a drink and walk over to Greenlake! It's the perfect stop but also the interior of Diva Espresso is so cute and homey. There is also plenty of outdoor covered seating in case you don't find any inside. Maple pecan cinnamon roll: I wish we got it warmed up but it still tasted SO GOOD! The topping is very sugary but the roll itself isn't sweet at all so it works out well. Cupids chai: I'm obsessed with the fact that they have a Valentine's Day menu! It was a chai with a hint of maple syrup in it. I really liked this drink and might start getting a pump of maple syrup in my chai normally.

    What a cute little coffee shop! We stopped by on the way to the Woodland Park zoo and got drinks and pastries. Love all the Pride decorations! We'll definitely come back.

    This coffee shop was amazing !! The people working here were so nice and welcoming. The ambiance is very cozy. Will definitely be coming back when I visit Seattle again.

    Iced Vanilla Latte (5/5) | my favorite cafe for an ice-cold vanilla latte. It is the perfect sweetness for me. They are very consistent with their coffee making and I am never disappointed. Service (5/5): The nicest baristas I've met. Parking (4/5): Street residential parking Atmosphere (4/5): There is a few tables indoors and a few outdoors. But its nice to sit down and enjoy your coffee. - Please vote below, comment, and like the photos to give me feedback on my reviews -

    Honestly I wish I could move this coffee shop to where I live! Everytime we go away we always try small coffee shops and this one had to be our favorite! Along with the bagels that they serve. We are originally from NY and these bagels are better then Ny bagels! Go here you will not be disappointed!

    Service was subpar. The girl seemed like she didn't seem to enjoy her work or annoyed that she had to make our coffees or take our orders or answer simple questions, even though we were very kind and polite. Maybe it's a beautiful Saturday morning and she rather be elsewhere, hey, I totally get it, we all do. But don't ruin mine. The sandwich was good, especially when it's toasted. The coffees were above average good, but the cream powders they used quickly clump together at the bottom. Overall, over-priced, but the shop does deliver! We thoroughly enjoyed baking in the sun with our dog in their privately gated dog-friendly patio. Would we come back? Not when there are so many great shops around but two things did make this location stand out: The patio. Quiet. Secluded. Spacious. And under a beautiful giant flowering pink blossom tree. Away from buzzing coffee making machines and enclosed human chatters. They have Hemp Milk substitutes. Which says a lot because most places don't! I really liked their French vanilla latte (added hazelnut, one shot expresso). In spite of it all, we might just be back to have another do-over on one more of these days.

    Cute atmosphere. Chai was good, sweet but still had those spicy flavors that were not masked by the milk.

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.

The key word here is…read moresyrup, the ice cream itself is vanilla flavored, and the additional flavors come from the syrup options. 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.

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. There's plenty of outdoor seating, but it will get busy out of nowhere. My biggest complaint is that people don't respect the outdoor space. 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.
