    A true hidden gem in the neighborhood. The pairing of tea, floral, and matcha flavors are beautifully crafted and balanced. You can also adjust sweetness and add your own on the side if it isn't enough. There are a lot of new matcha shops popping up, all serving ceremonial grade matcha, but Mina's is my favorite in terms of flavor, variety, and seating space. I am hesitant to tell people about this place because I want it to stay hidden! It's quite well-known among students who need a study space or groups that bring their family. On one side, there's a cozy reading nook. On the other side, lovely seats by the window and a few tables. Definitely worth visiting if you're in the area.

    I came for the soft opening and it was beautiful inside! The staff are very friendly and offered to give recs. I ordered a strawberry matcha latte (~$9) with whole milk and half sweetness and it was perfect! I like how there wasn't too much ice as well. S/o to the amazing worker that saw me staring at the guava raspberry pop tart and handed one to me while waiting for my drink

    Cute spot and really good matcha! This is definitely one of the top matchas I've tried in the Seattle area. When we came it was quite busy and hard to find a seat, but eventually a couple cleared up and became available. I got the regular matcha latte with oat milk, which was really good! Super strong matcha flavor and just the right level of creaminess. It was quite pricey, but really good. They were also so nice!

    So glad to see they finally have a brick and mortar location! They've done a great job with the spot where one of my favorite candle places used to be. There's plenty of types of seating including couches, bar stools, large table, and small tables. Great lighting near the windows. The menu has some classic mat has, more special options with cream tops, and then not matcha things. They have oat or corn milk too which was nice. They were very kind and gave me a 1/2 lavender 1/2 earl grey matcha since I wanted to try it out. It was good! I will definitely be back!

    I love this place! Mina was so nice and welcoming. The place itself is clean and great for dining in. The banana pudding matcha was probably the best-tasting one. It was thick and creamy, and you can actually taste the bananas. The umami of the matcha complemented the sweetness of the pudding very well. I highly recommend this place and would come back!

    Cute new matcha place! The people running it were very friendly and sweet. The matcha itself was strong tasting although a little on the pricey side for the amount you get. Would go back and try some other matcha drinks +flavors in the future once they've gotten more settled in.

    Worst matcha I've ever had in Seattle and I've had many. I'm so sad cause I really was excited and told so many people about it but was extremely disappointed. Both matchas tasted horrible (the double and the strawberry) my husband also couldn't drink it. We took one sip and threw it away. So unfortunate as they were also $10 each. :(

    A hidden matcha café that just opened near the U-District, slightly outside of the Ave. The interior of Mina's Matcha is really nice--perfect for getting some work done if you're able to snag a seat. I stopped by right after their first soft opening. There was a line, but it moved quickly. What I ordered: Strawberry Matcha Latte Chai Latte Parking can be hit or miss, but you might get lucky and find free street parking nearby. I can't wait to try the other matcha drinks they have to offer like the ube matcha!

    Menu

    I ordered a 12oz strawberry matcha latte and was told it contained 6g of matcha. With that amount, the matcha flavor should be pretty pronounced -- color, aroma, and depth included. Instead, it was overwhelmingly strawberry and very sweet, with almost no detectable matcha. For a $9 drink, that was disappointing. Hope they revisit the ratios.

    I got their classic matcha with a sweet cream top! Definitely one of the best matcha spots that's opened in Seattle recently! Price is good compared to others. I'm doing work here and it's the perfect space! Great WiFi and aesthetic spot to be productive! This is my new go to since it's very close to where I live Service excellent.

    Matcha was not good. Service was ok. Cute spot and good place for studying or catching up with friends, but wouldn't recommend the matcha.

I enjoyed my mocha and the gluten free almond cranberry cake, which was moist and flavorful. Another plus is they use a dark chocolate for their mochas, so it's not super sweet.

    Caffe Ladro in Ravenna is a cozy, pretty simple spot for a quick coffee. I visited on a Monday…read moremorning around 11am, so it was super quiet with just two people and one barista working. The café has around 20 seats, including a mini couch, a table in the middle, and a few seats by the window. It's the type of place where you might end up sitting right next to someone, so be prepared to make a new friend! The vibe was definitely more for people who need a quick place to work and not for big groups and loud conversations. Parking on the side street that it's on is limited, but I was able to find a spot easily around the corner since there's free 2-hour parking in the neighborhood. You'll need to ask for a key to use the bathroom after you order. They sell coffee beans and a selection of merchandise, along with a small range of pastries like muffins, cookies, and quiche. You order your drinks, and then you have the option to customize them with syrups and drizzles. The ordering process was quick and simple. I had an old gift card to use, and they had to transfer the balance to a new system, which is now linked to my phone number. Overall, it's a good spot if you're looking for a quiet coffee break, but it's not exactly the most exciting place to linger for long. Lastly, I ordered a latte with a white peach flavor. Which was subtle. Didn't really stand out like I hoped. Went with something different because why not! I also had their quiche which had veggies and goat cheese and that was magnificent. Highly recommended. Food ranges from 5-8 dollars and lattes range around 6 dollars. I had the jumbo which is 20oz.

    This is the third Portage Bay I've been to, and I have to say, I enjoyed this one the best. Great…read morefood and really helpful and supportive staff. I had their chicken sandwich with a side of potatoes. The sandwich, loaded with substantial pieces of chicken, almost spilling out of the sandwich, and healthy lengths of bacon. It was so much, I couldn't eat it all, so took half home. It heated up surprisingly well for lunch the next day. My girlfriend got the Mushroom Benedict (a vegetarian option on the menu), and loved it! So much so she finished of every last bite! Our server Melissa was amazing! Competent, but equally a good conversationalist, having done a lot in her life despite her youth It can be a little loud and boisterous in the place--the acoustics aren't stellar-- but still work the good food.

But I'm happy to report that portage bay has gone back to creating memorable food and great experience worth spending your money on. It was a pleasant time as we dined with dear friends. Our server was also so kind and attentive. The food was full of depth and care. So it makes me happy to recommend their restaurant again. If you've never been, make sure you make a reservation and enjoy the cozy place that encourages you to eat like you give a damn haha.

    I was excited to come here and enjoy some simple tapas and speak Spanish with my family. I love…read morethe concept, and the intent. The service was also great, considering there were many people and only one server. The coffee was good and people were all making an effort to speak Spanish, which I very much appreciated. The tortilla de patata, was also fine. That was the good. Overall, the food, as simple as it was, was really, really dissapointing. First, they rely exclusively on a microwave and a toaster oven. This should probably mean they serve only a few premade pastries and maybe come fiambres and call it a day. But I did not realize this when I ordered churros con chocolate for the whole family. Instead of having freshly fried churros - the only way to serve these, and the only way you will ever have them in any cafeteria in Spain - they preheated some pre-baked abominations along with a schmear of cold fudge sauce in a saucer. For a place so infatuated with Spain to serve something so wholly inauthentic really surprised me. Is it that hard to make chocolate a la taza? Is it that hard to have a frier and serve up some fresh churros? That's what we thought we were getting.... The ensaladilla was also a poor imitation of a Spanish classic, with mostly mayo, hardly any tuna, and punctuated with a smattering of pale peas. Even the pan con tomate, jamón y queso was bad. I confess that I've never understood the Catalan tendency to grate tomato on bread for these montaditos, but Ole doesn't even do that. Eschewing this easy opportunity to use a fresh ingredient, they squeeze some cold tomato sauce on a slice of toast instead. Almost as bad, the jamon serrano they use is cold and presliced (meaning that the salt is brought to the surface of the meat), instead of room temperature like jamon needs to be, rendering it dry and hard instead of warm and tender. In short, Ole cuts corners at every turn, relying on premade dishes for nearly everything, a decidedly un Spanish approach to food. Seattle desperately needs an authentic little Spanish cafeteria where folks can get good, simple freshly made tapas made with love. This place doesn't even try. With all that being said, if you want a good coffee and to be surrounded by people who love the language, Ole offers this. And that's pretty good too..

    Little cafe with a novel concept. This is a 100% Spanish language business. Step inside and…read moreyou're teleported half way across the world into a little Spanish bar. You hear and read only Spanish, and if you're well versed in the language, you will spot everywhere the signs of Castilian Spanish from Spain. Watching people struggle a little bit ordering drinks and tapas brought back similar memories from travels to Spain with one big difference. Here, the owner is also a Spanish teacher (there was a class in session in the back room while I was there), so she helps you through the experience without breaking the spell by resorting to English. It wouldn't be fair to comment on the food barely 24 hours after opening. We'll see how that develops. Their intention is to provide a rotating selection of Spanish tapas. They have no kitchen, but neither do many Spanish bars. The beauty of classic Spanish tapas (jamón, queso, boquerones, pan, aceitunas, etc.) is they don't require cooking. The key is quality ingredients and as they say in Spain, "poca floritura." Olé café is the perfect remedy for Spanish nostalgia. As I stepped outside and returned to Seattle, USA, I marveled at how small our world has become.
