    The special holiday chocolate "Passport" selection
    Mar K.

    The store is ever the hub; since opening it's just gotten busier, and I would still maintain that the parking spots are definitely too narrow for many of our cars, and there's always the risk of hitting another car while parking... But inside the store is another story. The service is still great. And I love seeing the holiday selection out. I always come looking for the dark Chocolate Passport collection because it's a favor of my younger sister. I got an entire collection of quality dark chocolates that will completely fill her stocking. So -- Ho ho ho! -- it's gonna be a pretty Merry Christmas. PS I also realized that the TJ's peppered uncured salami with zero nitrates or nitrates is still the best deal around for proteins to populate my charcuterie.

    There's now 23 Trader Joe's in WA State, with 6 in Seattle. The newest one opened in Greenwood on 4/11/25 at the former Safeway. Another grocery choice in North Seattle, but at street level at a condo residential site. I waited for the grand opening hype to taper off and stopped by Sunday midday (4/27/25). Nice layout and easier viewing, especially for dedicated peripheral areas and especially the frozen food section. Good prices on some items. Friendly checkout staff. Well stocked shelves and display areas. 4.5 stars rounded to 5. Nice to checkout, but I'll stick to the Shoreline location with the bigger shared parking lot. Just an aside, curious why there is not a Trader Joe's location in South Seattle.

    Ohhh, the anticipation. We have waited ten years for this in the Greenwood neighborhood, and eagerly awaited news of its opening for the past year or so with the rumors gaining momentum. Today is the day: grand opening! The space is clean, organized (as any TJs), bright and full of all the things you know and love. Staff members are friendly, exuberant, and as excited to be there as the customers. We love the new, expansive space! Hooray!

    I'm so glad Trader Joe's took over the old Safeway in Greenwood! I love how spacious this Trader Joe's is, and that they have their frozen items in freezer cases with doors. I find it a lot easier to see what's in stock as oppose to bending over to see what's in the open freezers like the other TJs in the area. The staff here are friendly and easy to spot around the store. There's also plenty of parking and the bus stop for the 61 is right outside the store. 10/10 will be coming back regularly!

    I love love love this place! My favorite place for exquisite pastries of all time! Anytime that…read moreI'm in Seattle this is a MUST stop for me. Closed on Mondays and Tuesdays. It smells so wonderful and warm when you enter and it's really a feast for your eyes. Everything looks so delicious and it's hard to choose. The staff was ver patient with me. My "go to" is the most famous twice baked almond croissant. On this visit ordered the "go to" , blueberry ginger scone, ratatouille sandwich, turkey havarti sandwich, banana bread, and some Americanos to go. This is not a sit down cafe so we thoroughly enjoyed them in the parked car. :) Every bite should be savored. Extraordinary!

    I got the twice baked chocolate croissant for 7.25! Might seem pricey but the pastry was genuinely…read moreso big that I think the price was actually a good deal. 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.

    Came around 1-2pm on a weekend and they still had a full pastry case! I always love seeing that…read morelater in the day since some other cafes are getting empty around that time. 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!!! Buttery flaky layers of dough with a strong earthy mushroom flavor and savory cheese - an absolute umami bomb. 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. Definitely coming back for the mushroom and Gruyère pastry and to try their other delicious flavors. Their supreme croissant flavor switches often and we can't wait to try the next one! One of the best bakeries I've been to in Seattle so far.

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. It was incredibly delicious, perfectly filling, and even better when warmed up. The staff member kindly offered to heat it for me, which really elevated the whole experience. 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.

    I've been to Sea Wolf several times and have had a very inconsistent experience with the pastries;…read moreeven with the same item, I've had a fantastic version and one that left a lot to be desired. I will note that I haven't tried the breads, but as a non-morning individual, I do appreciate that they do tend to still have many items available even later in the afternoon (~1-3PM time frame). You will have to find street parking, but I've never had too much trouble in this neighborhood even on the weekend. Butter Croissant (3.75/5): I'll admit I'm insanely picky with my croissants and I think Sea Wolf's is just okay. I want a stronger crisp on the outside, something that almost shatters and makes a mess when you bite in, but the inside has a nice chew. Kouign Amann (3.75/5): I had a really fantastic time with this my first time picking it up, they have almost a crunchy sugar caramel crust on the outside with super buttery pastry inside. Unfortunately, my second time picking this up ended up being a miss, just stale and much to dry. Cinnamon Roll (1/5): The raisins are a nice touch, but this was awfully dry. Even the caramelized crus on the outside couldn't save this and charging extra for cream cheese frosting on top of a dry dough is criminal.

    Stopped by on Friday morning around 10am for a little snack. Got a plain croissant and a kouign…read moreamann. The croissant was alright, could have been a bit flakier. I really enjoyed the kouign amann, as the bottom crust was nicely caramelized with flecks of vanilla bean. Both felt slightly on the smaller side, but maybe my appetite is on the bigger side. They also had savory selections (seasonal flavors). Overall, a cult favorite, easily accessible, with consistent quality across pastries. Friendly staff, and plenty of outdoor seating.

    We came here mid-week after dinner for dessert…read more This is a small window with a few tables outside. They make amazing soft serve. They also have these adorable, beautiful fruit sandwiches on display. I also saw they have savoury bento items on the menu. We tried the hojicha soft serve ($6) and it was amazing. It's really just vanilla soft serve with a syrup of a flavor of your choosing - sesame, matcha, hojicha, etc. We were way too full to get the full sundae but we definitely want to get that next. You can have mochi topping too.

    Baiten offers creamy vanilla soft serve ice cream with your choice of syrup. The key word here is…read moresyrup, the ice cream itself is vanilla flavored, and the additional flavors come from the syrup options. They currently offer Matcha, Hoji-Tea, Kuro-Goma (black sesame), and Yuzu (Japanese citrus). The shop itself is very small since it's basically a window shop, either renting space from or connected to Tamari Bar. It's more like a little dessert stand located on the restaurant's patio area, with only a few outdoor tables available. The soft serve was okay, but not as creamy as I was hoping for, and it melted pretty quickly. If you decide to add a syrup flavor, I'd recommend asking for only a small amount. Mine came absolutely drowning in syrup, and honestly, the flavor tasted pretty artificial and overpowering.

I ordered a 16oz iced oat milk mocha and loved how perfectly the chocolate was incorporated into my drink! It tasted sweet and the coffee added the robust flavour I love in my mochas My boyfriend had never tried a Moroccan Fog before and he loved how sweet it was without him having to add sugar. He especially loved that it had just the right amount of mint flavoring without being toothpaste For breakfast, I ordered their fruit danish! I love that they had different options of fruit to pick from and I chose blueberry! The pastry was perfectly flaky and I loved how fresh the blueberry tasted. My boyfriend ordered the chocolate croissant because he was excited at the idea of the chocolate being piped through the croissant and also drizzled over the top, but it turns out the dark brown parts on top are just design and not more chocolate. Still, he was pleased with the amount of chocolate in the croissant and the bite I had was heavenly. The champagne cake caught my eye as I was ordering and I just had to try a bite, it was absolutely delicious and fresh. I loved how light the cake was and the layers of flavour through the whole dessert! I love how bright and airy the cafe is! My boyfriend and I were easily able to find seating by the windows and enjoyed the gorgeous view of the space needle and people watching as we shared breakfast. The staff here was also patient and welcoming. We'll definitely have to come back and try more of their pastries!!

Coffee is good but not a wow. Food like the croissants seems to be not fresh. They did not have the look of freshly baked considering it was around 9am. Not sure but did not have the glow or lopk when I see a pastry. Nice place though. Lots of tables and space. They were busy.
