As a non coffee drinker, definitely a great coffee spot. The espresso daiquiri is weirdly good (it has lime juice), the bees knees one isn't that great to me (my friend loved it though, no yuck to her yum). They also have an insanely good milk here for their beverages. Biscuits are amazing, the sandwich biscuits are better. I bet they would make a solid espresso martini if they ever decide to turn into an evening bar. read more

We found this Gem of a coffee shop in Everett. Staff are super friendly and knowledgeable! Coffee and food are fantastic. Location is great but can be a little difficult to find parking. There are many seating options from the bar to tables and couches. They also have bags of coffee and coffee equipment for sale. The picture is of a cortado and a vanilla latte. read more

Must assume the good reviews are for the food and limit of options but their coffee was not great. No aroma or deep flavor to the coffee and highly disappointing read more

Most favorite thing about this spot was the atmosphere and hip vibes. Decoration and open space was great. Service was polite and knowledgeable. Just wasn't a fan of the coffee whatsoever. Paid $23.50 for 3 drinks (6 oz, 8 oz, & 16 oz). Not something that stood out to me whatsoever for how much it cost. read more

Narrative Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Everett, Washington

I'd give this place zero stars if I could. I have had coffee all over the world and can confidently say that this was the worst coffee I have ever had in my life. I got the lavender mocha and it was NINE $9.00!!! Like are you kidding me? This is Everett, not LA, not New York, not Paris, not Tokyo, not Mexico City. I have never paid $9.00 for coffee and as I said, the worst coffee I have ever had in my life. If this was really good coffee, I don't think I would mind paying this steep price but that fact that it was absolutely terrible for $9.00 is unacceptable . It was bitter, burnt, yet acidic and thinned out all at the same time. Plus, it seemed like the chocolate powder or whatever they used wasn't properly mixed so it had this grainy texture in my mouth. I really hope the owners see this and do something about it. I wanted to return the coffee and get a refund but I was already on the road as I got it to go. I'm seriously shocked that people like this place and think that this is actually good coffee. I would rather go get an instant mix/folgers instead. read more

The service and staff are great and friendly/welcoming. Everything is a bit overpriced but that isn't the reason for a low rating. I ordered a breakfast burrito, had to pay an additional $8 for bacon and avocado, as it doesn't come with meat. The potatoes inside were essentially raw and crunchy which was terrible. Coffee was fine. read more

Cute spot! Great vibes, the staff are very friendly, and the food and coffee were delish! This was my 2nd time going and has quickly become one of my favorites in the area. I honestly don't have one negative thing to say, they even have cute merch! I will be back soon!! read more

Narrative Coffee - Salted bourbon butterscotch and hot chocolate - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Everett, Washington

I've been going to the Narrative location out in bellingham on and off when visiting friends for a few years. I lived in Olympia and went to Olympia Roasting company every Saturday morning for the good brew, food and vibes. So stoked to find this out in Everett after moving back to the snohomish county. It has been so difficult to find a coffee company like this out here, 5 stones does a great job. But the single origin, rarity roasts that Olympia and Narrative offer are to die for. The service here is impeccable, from ordering at the coffee bar, to the chef all the way to the back of house. Expect to pay for all the amazing service, drink and food. Worth every penny. Thank you Narrative for setting up shop. read more

Legitimately the worst, wateriest, most flavorless cup of pour over I have ever had. And don't even get me started on the prices. Could not be worse value for your dollar if they tried. The cake is the only reason this bumped to 2 stars. read more

Very nice ambiance and service. The biscuit is delicious but the fish could have used more sauce. read more

This review is based on the location and food. If you find yourself going to a wedding in Snohomish, WA and need a good cup of Joe, keep reading ... Being the amazing yelp reviewer that I am, I needed to tell you about this unexpected coffee shop either you'll either want to stop in for a a winters break, or a summer road trip to Vancouver. Was here for a wedding and wanted to take the off times pre/post wedding to explore this little town. We went to a local record shop for vintage records and decided to see what we could find to eat. Opened Yelp and found this gem. The coffee was made to order. The dessert cookie (chocolate chip) was delightful (next time asking for it to be warmed). The breakfast options were many. The reason why I am giving one star less, is there was no buses and no ease to find seating. You're either fighting for a seat, or the previous customer left the table a mess and no one was cleaning, wiping or sanitizing tables down. The store team was brilliant. Could've been an off day because they were straight to the point without asking if we needed recommendations. Overall, I'd stop here again to experience the wider brunch/lunch menu. read more

The price $7.50 for a 10oz chai latte was bogus. It came with a piece of long light colored hair from presumably the barista. Upon first sip I pulled a hair out of my mouth lol Second, I've also a better $3 cup of cappuccino than this $6 cup. It was good but not great. It was bland and one dimensional, the milk was also too hot and airy. The mini breakfast was pretty darn good though. Perfectly prepared eggs and toast. Generous butter and jam on the side. The avocado slivers were ridiculous. It was $13. So for 2 drinks and 2 eggs, it was over $30. Most likely not coming back. read more

Never been here but thanks to fellow Yelpers. The Salted caramel Bourbon latte was to die for! And the brownie was decadent and moist. The biscuit and mushroom gravy was fantastic. Biscuit not dry at all and the gravy was savory with a hint of spice on the finish. The baked eggs was a little to the dry side. Like half of it and then the rest was perfect. My hubby was so enthused he wanted to return. Staff was super friendly along with the lady sitting across from table. Noise was low as everyone was respectful and maybe remote working too lol. Great place! read more

Went at 11am on a Sunday and it place was packed! The food was great and service was quick. Seems like a great place to get work done during the week but seems super popular so I would maybe avoid it as a place to work during the weekends during peak hours. By just before noon the line was gone and there was more seating! Super cool space and I would definitely recommend! read more

I had the biscuit sandwich with bacon and my wife had the avocado toast. Both were very good. The biscuit was very flaky and buttery. The bacon was thick and cooked just right not fatty or burnt. The service was friendly and quick even though they were busy. The restaurant was clean and open style seating. Almost like a hangout spot. Only issue was the menu was much too pricey. We spent $50 for just 2 people for breakfast. read more

Great experience! You could taste the layers in the coffee. My biscuit and mushroom gravy was something I've never had and days later craved it again! Can get a little loud inside but overall a nice seating area read more

We came in on Sunday about noon and it was packed! We admired their decor and their cafe before ordering two lattes and a pinwheel. They are definitely on the pricier side ($7 a latte!) but we enjoyed the ambiance. It was a good latte and a good pinwheel, we just wish their menu had more of a price range. read more

Good latte but the biggest size they have for a hot to go drink is 12oz and it was $7.70 with tax!

The cold coffee Americano was sour. I don't know why but it tasted way too sour.. the late was ok

The atmosphere was amazing, the people that work there was breathe of fresh air. Inside it was an open concept and the wood beams in the ceiling were beautiful. Did I tell you that the people that work there are great especially Keziah. She just juggled that front counter like she owned it! I just totally fell in love with them. Oh I almost forgot the main thing, the food! I loved it, the food was super delicious. Go try it yourself and when you see Keziah tell her Nicole said hi. read more

A little too expensive for what they offer, but their orange coffee is really good. I still go there occasionally because the atmosphere is stunning and the staff is really nice. read more

I am sitting here in the middle of the chatter, wishing I would have worn looser pants, or that I could at least pop that top button open. Is Narrative expensive? Yes. Do you get what you pay for? Absolutely. Today I got the Limewired ice coffee (they juice their own limes!), and I'm not joking when I say the combination is not something I would have ever tried but I'm pretty sure it's going to be my go to when I'm here. When they say refreshing they're not joking. Hubs got the Tame Filtered Coffee and said it's "great". We couldn't decide what we wanted so we ordered the Avocado Toast (full sized) and the Breakfast burrito. I'm not a big eater so if you're not sharing (or not sharing with someone who has a bottomless stomach) I recommend getting the half size. The breakfast burrito was really good and definitely was packed with meat, no skimping here. Ps, I sat at the bar and got to watch them make chai tea, no $hitty concentrate boxes here. read more

Still love this place. Been doing a "gluten challenge" where I've reintroduced gluten for a celiac panel, and if I have to suffer anyway I might as well enjoy what I'm consuming. I got the biscuit, the normal biscuit, and I don't know what I was expecting because the gluten free one is pretty amazing, and not "it's pretty good for being gluten free," but "it's pretty good period." So the regular gluten filled biscuit is also phenomenal. They're in parity, you can't really tell them apart by taste or texture, just by how your system handles gluten if it cares. I'll still come here for the gluten free biscuits, london fogs, mochas, latte breves, and eggs and ham and bacon. This place is popular and not fast, so consider this ahead of time. They do take to-go orders online so you can place an order on Toast and then come pick it up. I've done this when I've wanted something but was short on time. Otherwise it's a nice place to hang out at if you have the time. read more

First time trying this place based on a recommendation of a friend. Lovely spot . They didn't have my normal iced caramel macchiato but were able to improvise and do a vanilla brown sugar they tasted really good. Great service and people working behind the counter. Will be back read more

I've been waiting for my sandwich for more than 20 minutes. At 20ish minutes into it I asked the cashier when or if, she was rude in attitude and said "can't you see it's busy in here? " Nope, never going here again. Edit- I threw half the sandwich away. It was the worst biscuit, it seemed left over from days past, and fried to cover that up. read more

Love the environment, and the staff are absolutely great! I highly recommend this coffeehouse.

I was growing weary of crappy hotel coffee, so when I was in Everett I insisted we go get real coffee. Cool place, nice staff. Industrial and millennial. Wife got some oat milk concoction. Checked out. I got the lime and coffee ice drink. I came around. It's weird combo. Like someone spilled their limeade in their coffee. I sort of liked it, then hated it, then back to sort of liking it. Their meals looked good. We got some spinach filled pastry, that went uneaten. Not because it didn't taste good, just no one realized what we had ordered and were let down it wasn't sweet--our fault, I know! Chocolate chip cookies however, did not go uneaten. Solid cookie. Would go again. read more

Great ambiance, delicious biscuits, and wide variety of coffee selections. Tall ceilings with ceiling lights made for a very airy and well lit seating area throughout the cafe. Their biscuits were freshly baked, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The butter tasted freshly whipped and the rhubarb jam had a good amount of tart. Service was a little slow for the small amount of food we ordered but the food quality made it up for it. Will definitely come back for more! read more

Narrative Coffee - Avocado Toast - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Everett, Washington

This is a gorgeous, peaceful coffee house with a wide open space and lots of seating especially for those of you that are able to work virtually. It's got lots of natural light, plants tastefully set around, and a couple big couches for groups to share. I was searching for a good coffee house and stumbled across this one. The reviews are spot on in regards to the amazing food and even more amazing coffee. I ordered the biscuits and mushroom gravy with an egg on top. These biscuits are to die for - buttery, flaky, soft, the right amount of crust on the top and bottom. The gravy was savory and not overly salty and just look at that beautiful egg on top. 10/10! Definitely worth sharing because it is a good amount of food. My husband ordered the biscuit Benedict and it was a giant serving, also worth sharing as well. The Benedict overall was good, but the hollandaise was interesting. It was very bright and maybe just slightly too acidic, it was very vinegar/lemon forward which I was not expecting. 7/10 just because of the sauce. For coffee I ordered the iced lavender mocha, just to try something new and different. The coffee definitely gets lost in the mocha and just had a pure chocolate milk taste with a hint of the lavender. If you're a lover of mocha's, this is the drink for you! My husband ordered a pour over with a roast that the barista recommended. We didn't have to wait too long for it and the flavors were so clean and refreshing to drink. I'm not sure what roast but it was very blueberry and lemon curd forward. Each barista in here was so attentive and caring, taking the time to chit chat and ask about yourself. It was such a wonderful experience! I will 100% be coming back here in the future. Thank you for having an amazing coffee shop and employees! read more
