I was east of Puyallup on a Saturday morning and thought, "Hey, I'm going to find a bakery I've…read morenever been to!". A quick search found Fika, very promising ratings and I'm partial to Swedish baked goods since I spend time in Sweden every year. Fika is located inside Farm12, a huge complex that even contains a school so, why not a coffee shop? When I arrived, the line was a good 30 feet out the door. Even more promising. After 20 minutes, I made it inside and got to look at the extensive selection of pastries and more. All of them looked pretty good though the only nod to Swedish baking was a cardamom bun (and one tart that also contained cardamom). The rest were standard baked goods and a few specialties for the month. Counter staff (Finn) was very helpful. I ordered a Farm12 mocha, almond croissant, and the aforementioned cardamom bun. The mocha was well made, perfect temp, and tasty. The cardamom bun dough was underproofed, dense, and gummy. Good flavor and looks. Almond croissant was buttery and flaky like you'd expect. I personally prefer my almond filling added after baking as it doesn't moisten the inside as much. Overall, this is a good addition to the area, nice people, seems well run, and handy if at the nearby park and trail. Just don't go in thinking Swedish in any way.

Came in to grab some pastries. I really wanted to try their puff pockets. I got the strawberry and…read morethe maple brown sugar. I really enjoyed them. The maple grown sugar had a much bigger air pocket compared to the strawberry where the pastry was pretty flush to the jam inside. Both had great flavor. I couldn't tell you which I preferred since they're so different. I also got a morning bun which was a little hard when not warmed up. It had a little citrus flavor to it. Service was quick for ordering the pastries and no drink. I did come in when there want a line so that definitely helped in the wait time.

I was here a few years ago and it was a major miss. I decided to come back because people rave…read moreabout it so I decided to give it another shot. I ordered the banana matcha, it was a seasonal and it was gone from my favorite coffee place so I had been craving it. I was excited to see that they had it here but ended up being very disappointed with it. The flavor just fell flat for me, and it had that grainy matcha aftertaste. The caramel latte was simple yet good, sometimes the safe choice is the best choice. The avocado toast was basic, nothing crazy. I got the burrata toast and really like it, however I feel like there's no way that either one of those toasts are worth $14, crazy markup for profit. The inside isn't bad, it's not my aesthetic but it has a personality to it. The train drives by RIGHT NEXT TO IT. Pretty cool and pretty annoying. Lots of people love this place, I'm still not one of them.

Just came by today for my birthday while family was in town. We all loved the overall charm of the…read moregrounds (there's a garden, playground, greenhouse, cafe, and venue here too). There's ample parking that's paved or across the street on gravel. The food looked amazing in photos, but I wouldn't say it was as good as it looked or sounded in descriptions. It was generally very tasty, but everything felt like it was missing just one ingredient that would make it better. It could be that I'm just more used to ethnic flavors and these were just not quite hitting the mark. For example the stratciatella was good, but if the whipped ricotta was a little more fluffy and there was some extra black pepper or lemon added it would have been perfect. The pork belly was a little dry and not worth the price for just three pieces. The thick cut truffle fries were very good however. We also tried the bucatini and it was nice but still I wanted a little more kick. It has spice but just needs a little something to punch it up. The steak sandwich two of the three of us sharing a meal loved and I'd say was the best thing we ate. The service staff was kind, considerate and gave us time and made sure our drinks were filled. There are still a lot of dishes I'd like to try and since I loved the area, it would be worth coming back again.

I was incredibly excited to try this farm-to-table restaurant. It's close to home, and a coworker…read morehad raved about it, so our expectations were high. We joined the online waitlist at 1:00 PM on a Sunday. While we were seated fairly quickly, we still had to wait in a long line just to speak with the host to check in. The restaurant was completely packed well past 2:00 PM. Unfortunately, the experience went downhill once we sat down. It took forever just to place our order. Our chowder arrived about 10 minutes later, but it tasted like it came straight out of a can, and the accompanying dinner roll was completely flavorless and factory-made. Since we were hungry, we ate it quickly anyway. It took 45 minutes for our entrees--a Country Fried Steak and a California Benedict--to arrive. By 3:00 PM, we were famished, which made it all the more disappointing to discover our food was cold, soggy, and hard. The cubed fries, scrambled eggs, and English muffin tasted like they had been sitting on a counter for 20 minutes before being brought to our table. For a restaurant advertising a "farm-to-table" concept, the eggs, salad, croutons, and muffin felt entirely mass-produced. The service was equally disappointing; our server never returned to refill our water. While the atmosphere is nice and the space is large enough to fit over 100 people, they seemed severely understaffed. The host stand was backed up, it took too long to order, and the kitchen was clearly overwhelmed. For $23 a plate, I expect significantly better quality in both the food and the service.

ATTN, if you are gluten or dairy free, COME HERE FOR TEA!…read more The people here were SO kind and accommodating to my partner's food sensitivities. They made a special gluten/dairy free scone, cookies, and generally made tweaks to their tea service to make sure my partner could enjoy everything! I did call in advance to let them know I was booking a reservation and the person couldn't have gluten or dairy and they were totally okay with modifying to fit the needs we had. Not only that, but everything was genuinely delicious and such a pleasant experience. 10/10 coming again.

I didn't try them -With their great selection of high quality syrups, they serve Hershey's for their mochas. Since I always like a high quality mocha, my recommendation would be to add Holy Kakow mocha at a higher priced option if price is a concern for the owner or use Monin chocolate syrup for higher quality Overall, very impressed with this cafe which says a lot since I've been to many cafes around the world.

The drinks are a little too sweet so I'd recommend asking for half sweet.
