    First time visiting Seattle and first time having a crumpet and wow I have been missing out on how delicious crumpets are. This cute little shop has 2 entrances and a few tables to eat at. If you get certain drinks IE ice tea you get free refills while you're in the shop. Everyone was so kind and helpful. The crumpet was a nice texture with a wonderful maple honey flavor. My only regret is not having time to come back to try more items as I wasn't very hungry when we visited. This will be a must stop at when in town.

    I didn't realize how popular this place was. Upon going in the staff was very rude, no hello just told me to "wait over there." I should have left at that point. I ordered 1 crumpet. The bottom was so hard it was like eating a cracker. The persevere had absolutely no sugar in it. These were nothing like the ones I have had in the UK or yet even at other restaurants.

    The Crumpet Shop is often found on lists of must-visit places in Pike Place Market. I made sure to stop in and give something a try from The Crumpet Shop while I was visiting! I think the Crumpet Shop excels at being one of the cutest and most affordable themed eateries in Pike Place. They have lots of English classics, including crumpets and tea. They also have some more unique items on the menu, such as the Seattle Crumpet. I gave it a try and enjoyed the soft crumpet with the tender scrambled egg and savory ham. Very tasty and a great little snack. They also sell their crumpets to-go, though I am sure the fresh ones are still better. They also sell their famous lemon curd, which I did not try, but was told it is very popular. There are a few small tables inside, but the space is fairly small. Worth a try, but there is so much to try at Pike Place, I recommend sticking to something small from the Crumpet Shop.

    Came by while visiting Seattle and Pike's Place for a quick breakfast. Firstly; decor is so adorable and quaint!! There's limited indoor seating so I would recommend this shop as more of a to-go style bites. Service was quick and I love their cat tea mascot! Irish breakfast 5/5, solid black tea with beautiful spice w unlimited refills, I stayed for a bit to finish this and threw away the cup but I do wonder if you're able to leave and come back to refill Lemon crumpet 4/5, chose this one upon cashier recommendation as a popular choice here, good but definitely pricy for the size

    My son loves crumpets, and we usually buy them from Trader Joe's, so getting to try fresh crumpets at The Crumpet Shop was a real treat! We stopped by for breakfast while exploring the area, and its location is perfect--just a short walk from Pike Place Market, the Gum Wall, and the Seattle Aquarium. The crumpets were absolutely delicious: soft, fluffy, and light in the center with a slightly crisp and airy exterior. You can really taste the difference when they're made fresh. We ordered the egg, cheese, and ham crumpet, a buttered crumpet, a honeyed crumpet, and The Walrus, which is topped with ricotta, honey, and walnuts. Everything was fantastic, but The Walrus was especially memorable with the creamy ricotta, sweet honey, and crunchy walnuts creating the perfect balance of flavors and textures. The shop itself is small and cozy, with a few indoor seats as well as outdoor seating. As soon as you walk in, you're greeted by the wonderful aroma of freshly made crumpets, making it hard not to order one of everything. If you're visiting Seattle or exploring Pike Place Market, this is a must-stop breakfast spot. Fresh crumpets are a rare treat, and The Crumpet Shop does them exceptionally well!

    Egg, ham, and cheese. Also, raspberry preserves.

    Nice little spot to get breakfast or afternoon snack. All coffee and tea drinks are available. You can see them making crumpets in the window. Definitely something to try at Pikes.

    I took my parents here because I enjoyed my last visit so much and felt they needed to experience it! To drink, I had an iced honey lavender latte. The flavors were balanced, it wasn't too sweet, and so creamy and refreshing. My mom had The Crumpet Shop tea blend and my dad had a hot coffee. Both were great! To eat, I had their special sweet crumpet, the blueberry pie crumpet. The blueberry compote had delightful texture and was sweet but tart. The cream complemented the blueberry and crumpet nicely. My mom had the lemon & ricotta crumpet and my dad ate the maple butter crumpet. Those crumpets were also tasty! We sat outside as we were visiting with our dog. They have a few tables out front that served as a nice place to sit and enjoy our beverages and crumpets. Everything was served promptly and the staff was friendly. Definitely check out The Crumpet Shop!

    Yesterday The Crumpet Shop celebrated 50 years in business!  (1/13/26)

    I've lived in WA State since Sept 1973 and walked past the OG Crumpet Shop at Pike Place Market a gazillion times. This business has been established since 1976. I've actually stopped in their Edmonds location first, lol. Nevertheless, it has been in existence for fifty years! For some reason on this chilly Monday (2/16/26), I decided to stop in since I noticed there was not a line and some onsite seating available. I ordered a fresh griddled crumpet that was buttered and topped with strawberry preserves. After a brief wait, I received my order. Halved and placed on a saucer. Straightforward, but really hit the spot. Flavorful where the butter had melted in the tiny holes or flutes, plus the added preserves was just right and not cloying. This was pillowy in comparison to an English muffin. The menu features quite a variety of sweet and savory, traditional and inventive crumpets, plus a nice selection of hot tea to accompany one's crumpet. Pleasant detour while visiting Pike Place Market!

    Before moving to Seattle I vacationed here and fell in love. One place I checked pit was the crumpet shop. A shop dedicated to fresh off the griddle crumpets, yes! The simple crumpet with butter and honey is impeccable, but since then I've had the pesto and tomatoes crumpet and the lemon curd with ricotta. None have disappointed! One thing to not is even while they face 1st street they close down at 4pm, which is a bummer. A good way to end your time at Pike Place Mkt is to get a crumpet then meander over to Pike Place Chowder for an award winning cup or bowl. Their line is always so long but catching right before they close you never have a line. Remember a crumpet at closing and a seafood chowder for a bowl of take out.

    Can't say enough code things about this spot, stopped by a few times during our trip in 2023 and loved it, they were delicious crumpets. A little crammed inside but it's definitely great spot to stop by and grab a quick breakfast crumpet before doing your thing. I loved the Storyville coffee and pair it with the crumpets from this spot. We tried both the sweet and the savory

    David T.

    This was our first time trying a crumpet, so we wanted to order a variety of different kinds. We decided on two sweet and two savory options. We were pleasantly surprised by the textures and flavors, and it was a great experience. The interior is cozy and small so make sure to find seating. Overall, we had a pleasant afternoon with the family here!

    I've been here plenty of times! Such a great place in Seattle / Pike Place Market! The lines can be long, but it goes by fast! Limited seating. It's not the cheapest, but it's a good snack to eat while browsing the market and snacking more! I enjoy getting the ricotta, pesto, and tomato and rob's favorite!

    Lemon ricotta crumpet

    I'd give 3.5 stars if I could. I think the offering is really cool for those who have never had crumpets, and as a tea lover, I loved the fact that it was self-serve and I could drink however much I wanted. Their signature blend was very good as reviews promised, but so were all the others, too! A few milk options! Loved the cheerful yellow coloring and thought the sign was super cute. The cons: it was hard to navigate the inside when it was crowded. There weren't any lids for the hot cups, so navigating through Pike Place was a bit scary without them. I think we also were only given one cup sleeve, too. Hopefully they're better stocked in the future!

    Are there dairy-free options?

    What is a crumpet?

    A Crumpet is an English Griddle Cake. It is made with simple ingredients, just flour, water and yeast. They are mixed into a batter and then poured into round rings on the griddle to cook. They have holes and a spongy texture. In the US, a crumpet… 

    Will they be open on New Year's Day 2019?

    I think its best to call them tomorrow when they open.

    How long do you think the line is on a Thursday morn?

    7am there will be a short line. Prime time is 8am to 10:00. The line goes quickly. I do the social media for the shop. Friday-Sunday are the busiest.

    How many calories do you think are in 1 crumpet?

    Probably not too bad. In Seattle you do a lot of walking up hill, so what ever the calorie count is, it is worth it, and you will burn off the calories.

    This place was recommended to us and we were warned about the long lines. We went on a Monday…read moremorning and there was only about a dozen people in line. The shop is tiny and there were three women behind the counter. One was stocking, one grabbed our orders while the other rang it up. Everything went quick and smooth. Was in line for less than 10 minutes. Ask for a knife and fork to cut them up to share. We ordered the beef and cheese, the beef and onion, the Smoked salmon bake, and the sausage with cheddar and jalapeno. We each got to sample each other's orders. Favorite was the Sausage roll. The beef and onion was very greasy and the pastry got mushy pretty quickly. There is no place to sit so we found a counter to quickly divy up the orders and walked around while eating.

The line can get pretty long, but it moves quickly. Here's what I've tried: Cinnamon Cardamom: 5/5 - This is my favorite pastry here. I love the cinnamon flavor and the chewy texture of the bread. Chocolate Cream Hazelnut: 4/5 - Really good. The bread is soft, and the hazelnut flavor is delicious, but the filling had more of a pudding like texture. Beef and Cheese: 4/5 - Savory and delicious. The filling reminded me of a beef empanada. Smoked Salmon Pate: 3/5 - I didn't really like this one. I enjoy smoked salmon, so I thought I would, but the flavor just wasn't for me. The prices are on the expensive side. I'm used to paying $3-$4 for pastries at Asian bakeries in Los Angeles, so spending $7-$8 per pastry took some getting used to.

The croissant was on the crispier side, especially with the almond crumble on top it was a bit too cripsy for me, but I tend to like soft and flakey pastries so it's probably a matter of taste. There was a TON of almond filling in the middle. I enjoyed the taste and texture but it was too much filling for me personally. I would have liked more croissant in my croissant, so to say haha. The chocolate was slightly dark which worked well with the sweet pastry and filling! Overall I enjoyed the croissant but it was a tad too heavy on the filling and cripsy/crunchy for me.

They have so many yummy options, but I settled on a mushroom and Gruyère pastry and an earl grey blueberry cruffin. The mushroom and Gruyère pastry was SO good!!!

We ate it the day after and threw it in the air fryer for a couple of minutes, and it was so delicious. The cruffin was huge! Topped with a delicious light Earl grey cream that wasn't too sweet. It was filled with a blueberry cream and was definitely very filling. There's a lot of sugar coating it, as is standard with cruffins, but it's a nice sweet treat.

I originally planned to just grab a coffee and a croissant, but after noticing how popular the mushroom Gruyere croissant seemed, I decided to give it a try and I'm so glad I did.

While they serve Umbria coffee, which isn't my personal favorite, the food more than made up for it. The service was warm and friendly, and the overall vibe was welcoming. I'll definitely be back to try the mushroom croissant again or maybe explore some of their other pastries next time.
