    Mocha
    Victoria S.

    This walnut street coffee shop is like a bad blind date! I visited a few years ago, thinking I was in the charming Edmonds area, and decided to try their supposedly famous coffee selections. I ordered my usual Mocha Breve, and the coffee was surprisingly good - great flavor and just the right temperature. But let's chat about the service... As some reviews suggested, the service was a major letdown! The front servers seemed more annoyed than a cat in a bath. I asked for a bagel on the side, and both servers were less than thrilled to help me or even mention that I had to toast it myself! Apparently, there's a DIY toasting station for your pastries. The kicker? I ended up tipping 15% even though I did pretty much all the work - toasting the bagel and spreading the cream cheese. Which btw the bread even toasted is hard as a rock! It's a local joint, and the lady next to me clearly a local , was practically tapping her foot, trying to rush me as I waited for the cashier to make sure she's ready to take my order. Would I recommend this place? You might have a different experience so go. Am I gonna do a drive to comeback probably not. Don't believe the hype.

    A quaint little coffee shop with cute little novelties to choose from while you're waiting in line. Very nice baristas, very good iced chai's, and nice selection of pastries. We happened to be there when the local fire department decided to come. Apparently they are regulars.

    Arriving at Walnut Street Coffee a little after 8 a.m. this morning (Saturday 9 November 2024), there was a short line and an abundance of baked goods on display. Interior seating was over halfway full and exterior seating (on two sides of the building) had a group on one side of the building. The line area was bordered with various merchandise one could buy in addition to food and drink. Looking over the baked goods, the cinnamon rolls resembled the sweet rolls only with a cinnamon mixture and frosting. I ordered one, the price was $4.00 pre-tax and tip. Workers and the interior of the building were warm. The cinnamon roll was easy to tear apart with my fingers and had a textural flakiness similar to a croissant. The frosting had a cream cheese flavor and was easily spreadable even without heating. I found the serving size to satisfy my hunger for a few hours.

    With a rotating selection of fresh-baked pastries and exquisite espresso drinks, I'd be happy to stop at Walnut Coffee whenever I'm in Edmonds. The flavor profiles at Walnut tend to be excellent. They're always long, complex, and balanced. This is the sign of a shop that does the work of adjusting the grind and pull parameters to extract the most from a fresh roast. You could easily come to Walnut to level up your coffee palate. There's Wi-Fi, of course, and table and bar height seating. The seating can get full at times, so don't be shy about asking to share a table, especially on a rainy day.

    Very friendly barista/greeter who made me feel warm and welcomed. Small but delicious options of pastries and premade burritos and breakfast sandwiches which they provide a self service microwave for you to heat up if you prefer. I also appreciated the self serve water faucet, great for filling up your water bottle or reusable glass cups provided. Quite a bit of seating indoors and lovely options outside as well. Would come back!

    As an Edmonds local I can say this may be the best coffee in town. I appreciate the attention to detail of the baristas, so I am a happy customer every time. My daughter would like to add that the hot cocoa is rich in flavor and best she has had. My order is obscure and the staff doesn't shame me, in fact they remember it and kindly ask if I would like a mug or paper cup. Sometimes it is crowded with good reason so it's not my go to work spot but by far and away the best for quality coffee, and super cute to hang out if it is slow.

Despite being in business for nearly 13 years, this is my first visit to Cafe Louvre (12/9/25). After two days of staying in due to the stormy weather, I decided to venture out and try some place new. I snagged a 3 hour parking slot, yay! The cafe is in a shared building with six other businesses. Pleasant interior with natural light, mellow overhead music, various seating with 2 & 3 tops, communal seating by a fireplace, and group seating off to the side that can be reserved. It is currently decorated for the holidays, but also featured work from local artists. First visit & first meal of the day coming up on 1pm, I opted for a grande mocha and a 4 inch proscuitto sandwich. The overhead menu and display cases have a nice variety. Pastries are from Macrina and coffee roasts are from Caffe Umbria. Their espresso beverages are very generous. The grande mocha was served in a huge mug, reminiscent of a souffle ramekin. Well crafted too. I enjoyed the 4 inch proscuitto sandwich. Perfectly sized and sliced, not too big, not too small, Goldilocks just right. Served warm with proscuitto, melty cheese, pesto spread, spinach, and basil in a soft, square roll. Most of the folks onsite are having active convos or business type meetups, only two on laptops. And one doing a Yelp post, lol. After being onsite for 2.5 hours on a weekday early afternoon, seems to be an older demographic that visits here. Clean, comfortable, and welcoming. Love discovering new & established businesses in the north end, like Cafe Louvre.

The other pastries we had was raspberry croissant, and a muffin, all tasted pretty good. I think all their pastries are fresh, delicious, and not that sweet compared to other bakeries. I highly recommend getting their cinnamon roll. This cafe is perfect for the all seasons especially summer if you want to sit outside and enjoy the view of downtown Edmonds. They have plenty of seatings inside and outdoor. Parking is limited since it's downtown Edmonds so it's a bit challenging but it's worth it because you get to enjoy fresh pastries and you can also have a nice walk down to the beautiful town and beach after.

Street parking only, but if you're open to a walk, downtown Edmonds tends to have ample parking around the area. When busy, they do provide a buzzer that has a short range, but opens up the opportunity of walking around slightly. Items can be a bit pricey, but they're also very filling. Large space, lots of chatter, and friendly service. Number Three Combo Club - we wanted waffles this time but also bacon and sausage. This was the variety pack we desired, though wish it came with both sausage and bacon! Opted for the bacon and it was thick, fatty, and delicious. One waffle cut into the four quadrants, ready to soak up syrup. Simple, but a classic. Chunky Monkey Pancakes - goofy perhaps, but another timeless classic combo of chocolate and bananas. Three chocolate chip pancakes, fluffy and ready to absorb the Nutella drizzle. Could have a few more chocolate chips embedded for a more balanced spread, but the chocolate drizzle helps spread flavor. Bananas for the healthy balance of course.

    Hot Dogs in Cars, and Managers Named "Robert" : A Hate Story…read more I have been a regular patron of The Rusty Pelican since I moved to Washington, just shy of 5 years ago. I take visiting loved ones and friends here, and I constantly extol the service and food to anyone who needs a recommendation for a breakfast spot in Edmonds. NEVER. EVER. AGAIN. The manager, Robert, showed sickening behavior. My partner and I were having breakfast out in front, when we noticed that a fellow patron had left their dog in the car on the sidewalk in front of our table. It was 60 degrees out, and completely sunny. The windows were barely cracked, and the dog was panting and straining its neck towards the venting of the window. We called our waiter over, who was incredibly sympathetic and horrified. He went inside to find the customer. We waited a few minutes longer, and then asked a second server to follow up (they were equally horrified and sympathetic). The second server also did not return. My partner went inside to seek help. It was at this point that they encountered Robert. My partner came out a few minutes later and explained what was happening: he had been in the process of denigrating the employees feelings about the matter, telling them to stop bothering customers and (essentially) quit acting like babies. "This isn't Arizona!" he exclaimed. When my partner asked to speak with him and tell him the situation, he was horrendously rude and confrontational, escalating each polite rebuttal with an agitating escalation of rudeness and denigration. My partner calmly explained that in these conditions, a car's interior temperature can rise to above 80 degrees in well under 30 minutes, not including stifling humidity. These conditions can cause an animal to pass out and die within a similar timeframe. At this point, it had been well over 30 minutes since the patron had parked. During all of this, he refused to even address my partner or look them in the eyes. It was absolutely unacceptable, and ultimately embarrassing for a grown man in a PAID CUSTOMER SERVICE ORIENTED POSITION to treat anyone like that. To be clear: the entire staff were incredible. They came out to check on the dog a few times, and tried their best to confront the owner of the dog, but a certain manager was preventing them. They also apologized profusely, and showed a grace that is exemplary and frequently unseen in today's world. We learned several good lessons today: 1. We should have just called animal control right off the bat. The owner isn't going to learn their lesson without legal intervention, or lethal endings. Thankfully they left after about 40 minutes, and the dog seemed to be conscious. 2. I am never going to eat here again, as long as Robert is employed. He should be left in a hot car out front to teach him some perspective. I wouldn't call animal control for him though. 3. I am going to spend the rest of my days around Edmonds telling anyone who will listen this story. To Robert, if you read this: I hope nothing but bad things happen to you forever, and your behavior is inexcusable. You do not deserve to be employed. To anyone above Robert in a position of management or ownership: fire him. Quickly, and unceremoniously. Do it in front of the kind employees, as a treat. They had a familiar air of exasperation with Robert's behavior, telling me this is normal. And under no circumstances should it ever be. Shame on you Robert.
