This is an adorable little coffee shop. They had some fun espresso martinis and it was mostly…read morequiet on a Friday in the early afternoon....until it wasn't! Definitely a hopping place at the end of the workday. It's got a darker ambiance and it's cozy. It has indoor, outdoor, and patio seating, though we chose to stay indoor. Pro tip - the poofs make you sit REALLY low. The food choices around 1pm were dismal, and limited. Maybe they'd sold out, or maybe they just don't have a lot there, but nothing even looked fresh enough to warrant purchase. The other thing that killed me was the service. There was one person on the entire 4 hours I was there, and it made for an incredibly slow experience. It was friendly enough, if not a little dismissive. Prices are reasonable and there is paid parking across the street, but take that with a "for Seattle" caveat.

I was a regular here for years and in addition to spending thousands of dollars, left this location…read morea glowing, five-star review. The staff at the time were warm (Michael was the best), knew regulars by name, and made every visit feel special. The coffee was excellent and it felt like a true neighborhood gem. Over time, the people who made this place so memorable moved on, and with them went the quality and the warmth. I opted to support other local coffee shops instead. I returned recently to use a reward I had accumulated, excited to see how things had changed since my last visit. When I asked to check my rewards balance before ordering, I was told I could only do so after completing the transaction. Every other coffee shop I frequent allows this beforehand, so I pushed back to clarify. What followed was one of the most unwelcoming interactions I have experienced at any business. The staff member's tone was hostile and dismissive from the moment I asked a simple question, and it did not let up. I felt uncomfortable enough to cancel my order entirely. When I asked for a receipt to confirm my refund, she threw it away in front of me. A colleague had to ask her again on my behalf, and she snapped that she had already discarded it. Another customer standing nearby witnessed this exchange and looked visibly appalled. I reached out to the owner privately before leaving a public review, hoping to have a real conversation. She chose not to follow up with me about my experience. Instead, she wrote back to say she had already spoken with her staff and that a separate customer had contacted her to say I was the problem, and that her team had handled everything with grace. She closed by suggesting I had not met a basic standard of respect. I want to be clear: the customer she referenced appeared to be acquainted with the barista. I will leave readers to draw their own conclusions about whose account was actively sought out. I also want to note that I am not alone in this experience. Other reviewers here have flagged the same pattern of cold, unwelcoming service at this location. That tells me this is not an off day. It is worth reading those reviews before you visit. The refund for items that were never made has still not been processed, four days later, which caused me to have to reach out to an owner again. I have now been refunded. I share all of this because I think people deserve to know what to expect, both at the counter and if something goes wrong. This is not the place I once loved, and the ownership's response confirmed that.

Walked into Herkimer there was a decent line of people waiting to get their coffee, but that just…read moreshows how popular they really are. Lots of people on their laptop laptops getting some remote work done while enjoying their coffee. Pastry case was impressive. I purchased a dill cheddar scone. It was delicious and savory. I purchased an almond croissant to have later and it was also tasty. The coffee bean is not my favorite. It doesn't have quite the bite that I was looking for specifically, but it also wasn't terrible. I just have a very particular taste for a specific kind of coffee. Overall, I would come back again I loved the vibe of the neighborhood and the people in it.

From the owner: Located behind a violin shop, Queen Anne Roasters specializes in small batch single origin coffee…read more Coffee can be found online at www.queenanneroasters.com Examples of our roasts: Peru is the lightest of the roasts, full or aroma. It has cherry and molasses notes. Tanzanian Peaberry is a very earthy flavor. It is roasted just into a medium and has a nutty finish. Costa Rica is our darkest roast and is a well balanced cup of coffee or espresso. It was a wine finish, like the bottom of a really expensive Syrah. Brazil we roast to two degrees, medium or dark. The medium is suitable as a Single Origin espresso and tastes and smells like chocolate and butter. As it gets darker there is more acid and it is better suited for a drip coffee; very bold. Sulawesi has peach and dark chocolate notes with a bit of spice. It is roasted into the second crack but not very dark. It has a full body, lots of aroma and is an incredible cold brew.

I especially like the outdoor seating, the view, and the way they've recently arranged the space with plants and umbrellas outside. I also like the recent music selection. Keep it up! I usually get breakfast here, either the Smashed Avocado Toast or the Breakfast Bun. I also like the paninis. I'm not much of a coffee drinker myself, but my wife often brings home a bag of coffee from Hagen, and she really likes it.

The prices are on the higher end -- like $20 for a croissant sandwich. The customer service is awful. This seems to be the case with other locations. I've been to a few and most recently the location at Olympic Sculpture Park. I had similar experiences here. No greeting and the barista and person at the register looked annoyed to be there. I'm not asking for a chatty service but a hello and thank you doesn't hurt. Service seems to be the issue with a lot of these reviews.

Exposed brick wall and warm tones from the wood furniture makes this shop a cozy third place. A few indoor plants give it a fresh touch. The baristas here are definitely dedicated to their craft! Their drink offerings are standard, although they also have housemade syrups and specialty drinks (seasonal mochas, lattes, etc) if you want to try something different. I love how they highlight their single origin espresso on the menu with the tasting notes. They also offer matcha and teas if you're more into that. I haven't tried any bakery goods, but looking at the pastry case, they're quite popular. Victrola embodies the perfect Seattle coffeehouse- one that I wish people knew more widely rather than the twin tailed siren that's spread globally...
