    My yummy dark chocolate coffee drink
    Michelle A.

    I was early for my nail appointment so decided to get some coffee. Checked Yelp and this was the closest place snd new to me. It seems pretty popular. There was one artist and she knew what she was doing. There are seats inside and outside. I will make this a stop before my next appointment. My chocolate drink is really good .

    This coffee is nothing fancy it won't win any awards and it won't blow u away! But u know what it will do keep ur money in ur wallet! Their coffees are extremely affordable and I appreciate that! There are lots of coffee shops that will charge 10$ for coffee but there aren't many that charge 4.55$ for a 16 ounce for coffee and guess what this is one of them!

    Good morning! Seattle Espresso has gone above and beyond in cultivating the best coffee experience. Dave and I walked in to an absolutely Packed... coffee shop.... We walked out understanding shy!! In our many years together, Dave has never been a big coffee drink... I don't know why lol... but he even liked this one! Great customer service & you're not paying a thousand dollars for one coffee... Hahah! Have a nice day Love, Bertha and Dave

    This place has been on my Yelp list for a few months and finally got a chance to stop by. When I first walked in, I got a happy greeting. The two ladies working are fantastic! They were excellent in making their customers feel welcome. The barista got started on my drink order when within the first few seconds walking in. They offer your choice of milks. The cafe has about 4-6 small tables inside and a lot more outside. The cafe was clean and inviting. I ordered my usual caramel macchiato. Adjusted with half the sugar and whole milk. Wow! Delicious! Very balanced with coffee flavors and a hint of sweetness. The foam on top was a nice top off. While in line, the lady behind me order the White Russian. I noticed this is a favorite among the customers. I will try that next time! Thank you for the great coffee and awesome customer service!

    I just love checking out new to me locally owned coffee shops. I just happened to pass by, & thought I'd give it a try. Vibe inside is very simple, yet dated but with a charming touch. I love the old vintage style ambiance this place has going on. I came at the perfect time as is it was quite empty, but a line quickly formed right after I placed my order. The barista was very friendly and offered some recommendations. I opted for a large iced White Russian. The flavor itself was excellent and had a touch of a chocolaty taste but not overly sweet. The espresso shot in the coffee itself was perfect & not a hint of bitterness. Also love that they use crushed ice. A great spot with minimal seating & a few outdoor tables as well. I'll definitely be back!

    Quick trip to this one and took my chai to go. Small space but it was set up well. Barista was kind but didn't offer any of the food so I didn't bother. My chai was quite delightful!

    Boy, do they have their system down in ordering and receiving your drink. Put that to the side, the iced French Carmel latte is good.

    Don't forget to grab a punchcard!

    Q: What is a bean's favorite thing to eat on Thanksgiving? A: Roast. This plaza houses my gym so I've been seeing Seattle Espresso for years. Being that I usually hit the gym in the late afternoon, I just never had the opportunity to grab a cuppa. So when I had run errands on a sunny Monday, I popped in to grab an iced french caramel mocha with oat milk. Yum! The coffee bar takes up a good portion of the shop space. It's not the cutest place but it's cozy and you can definitely sit down to get some work done. As for the coffee, it was great! Seattle Espresso, you mocha me very happy.

Not only do they offer a crazy variety of delicious fresh pastries, drinks, sandwiches, breads, etc....they have beautifully decorated cakes that honestly are so good. I have to point out that they have one of the best tasting green tea, and they literally have the best service anyone can ask for. I don't know how she does it, but Ashley brews this green tea perfectly. While most other Paris Baguette locations have the same green tea, they honestly do not taste exactly the same (Phoenix location on Baseline/32nd St is a totally different tea). When Ashley, Kailey, Dania. Richard and Daniel work together, they emit such high, positive and fun energy. They clearly look like they have fun while dealing with so many customers (and some customers are plain mean). These PB employees are so pleasant, efficient and really are an asset to this organization. Love seeing Ashley, Kailey and Dania's smiling face as soon as you walk in, they will definitely greet you. They truly are so sweet. I watch how they connect with each customer, making everyone feel special. The manager Joy has done an excellent job in selecting this team... If you are nearby, give it a try. Ask for Ashley, Kailey or Dania, and I guarantee you will agree with me :-)

Also, they have $2 drink special with purchase during their 3pm to 6pm Happy Hour. All offers are through the app. It can take about 15 minutes to show up for new accounts, so I recommend downloading the app before you head to the bakery. There were so many great options to pick from. We really liked the hazelnut filled croissant and will plan to get that again! All the ones we have tried so far are good. We are looking forward to coming back and trying more pastries. In addition, there is plenty of seating here if you want to stay and eat!

You can tell that every detail, from the decor to the menu, was created with care and pride. The coffee was absolutely incredible. It was rich, smooth, and crafted perfectly. I had the Sugar & Spice Coffee Latte. You can taste the quality and passion in every sip. And the customer service? Top-tier. Genuine, kind, and attentive in a way that makes you feel seen, not just served. What I loved most is how this space feels like more than just a coffee shop...it's a community. A place where culture, creativity, and connection are celebrated. If you're looking for a spot that pours love into everything they do, this is it. I'll definitely be back!

The service was great, there was one person working the morning I went in and she was fast with making drinks!!! When ordering you can either order with the barista or through a tablet. I ordered with the tablet, which was cool because it really helped show the options available and any alterations that could be made on your drink. I ordered a Red Rock Chai with Oatmilk (half sweet and extra hot). The chai spicing was phenomenal and extremely balanced. If you arent the biggest fan of super sweet drinks, I would definitely recommend that you order it half sweet or even less sweet. The half sweet was still a little too sweet for me. The shop was setup in a way that could host book clubs or large group gatherings, and the shop promotes that it is book club friendly. If you look at their website they actually talk about this in their story. Overall great local business to support, recommend checking it out.

Thankfully, Where U Bean has decaf espresso, which means I had lots of possible options for drinks. They offer direct trade coffee and organic teas, and homemade treats as well. Their drinks are creative and very tasty. I had the brown butter chocolate chip cookie with my coffee, and it was to die for. You can sit at tables and work, or sink in comfy couches and look around at the eclectic art. And eclectic it is, maybe my only semi-negative feedback is that it was hard to see how the name related to the decoration theme, or whether there was an overall theme at all. That's hardly a criticism though, I like places that go in many directions, it give them character. That wall of vinyls is epic! Parking was easy as the shop is located in a plaza. Plenty of spots available on a Sunday afternoon. Based on other reviews, it sounds like it's not always the case. Also, it's open until later compared to other coffee shops, which is nice if you want to spend an afternoon of teleworking. The coffee shop itself was quite crowded, but not so much that we couldn't find seats. And the staff was very friendly, which is always a plus!

It was delightful and distinct with the date syrup and rose water. Next time I would choose almond milk because the oatmilk (+1. ) overpowered the delicate rose notes. To my surprise, gluten free food options were available at this non chain business. A chocolate chip almond cookie, peppermint bark cheesecake and an almond cake all tempted me. I went with the almond cake and enjoyed the fresh, moist, sweet treat that was topped with toasted slivered almonds. Winner. Even though I think the tab was a tad high for a morning coffee break ($16.36) I would return. I enjoyed my time here while observing the local patrons interact neighborly with each other. The homey community vibe oozed throughout this cafe which Starbucks doesn't provide. A charming cafe that seats 35 patrons inside and approximately 18 people outside. Stop on by.

You order at a counter and the staff will bring food to your table. My favorite item is the breakfast sandwich. The brioche is tasty, the eggs are extremely fluffy, and the sausage has nice flavor. The garlic aioli helps bring it all together. For coffee, I like the King, but make sure to order it half sweet. It has a perfect balance that way. The cold foam on top is delicious. There are plenty of events going on here too. Bottle & Bean regularly schedules live music to play throughout the month on their lawn.

I especially love their music nights on the grass/turf. Their outdoor area is such a draw. I even did a morning Pilates session there once that was held I think once per month on a Saturday by Haia Studio Nextdoor who is also a standout for Downtown Ocotillo! I love seeing them working together... I love their coffees and drinks! However, the only reason I'm giving 4 instead of 5 stars is that their food menu is lacking and it takes so long to get it when you do order something. For instance I once ordered some sort of pastry I think it was banana bread, and it tasted like the Starbucks one that come prepackaged like airplane food and it took 35 minutes until it was delivered to my table. Another time I ordered a breakfast scramble or similar w Potato wedges and it tasted like something microwaved and took over 40 minutes to get ...so personally I just stick w drinks when I come here. But if they ever upgrade their food menu I'll come back and give it 5!
