This is a typical Chase, except there is a drive thru which is a plus. It is next to the Metro transit stop bound for the U-District.

There seems to be a pay box, but having only walked to this location for transactions, not sure what the deal is.

On Friday, December 9, 2016, the Bel-Red branch was the closest branch for me to visit regarding a…read moreproblem I had with my Washington Federal mobile app. Chelsea was the clerk who helped me on that day. She was very kind and most patient with me above and beyond the call of duty. Chelsea has been righteously helpful to me on previous occasions as well, as well as every other employee that I have met at this branch. On another occasion sometime back, I had an interesting conversation with branch manager Scott Disney. I'm not sure, but I think he is still there. Believe it or not, he is related to Walt Disney! And so, we had an interesting conversation about his famous relative for several minutes. My point is that my experience with Washington Federal has been good over the past four years, at both the Crossroads(my home branch), and Bel-Red branches. I originally signed up with Washington Federal in 2012, because they do not charge monthly fees on my checking account, unlike the previous bank that I had been with since 1984.

This location happens to be pretty indescript and hidden out of sight. Though I think it would have more foot traffic since it is across from the Bellevue Transit Center and Bellevue City Hall. Interestingly though, I did not find any other customers here when I went during the lunch hour one day. This location also serves the Microsoft workers in the complex along with those Neiman Marcus shoppers needing cash because of the ridiculous credit card policy (no MasterCard/Visa, only Amex or Neiman Marcus). Not particularly a fan of B of A given my troubles with the overall service to my mortgage, but I have to say this is a pretty good location. Counter service was friendly and I like that it is less crowded. Plus I get to walk past the Wild Ginger street vent (smells like Asian Fusion!) to get here from my office.

I made my withdrawal outside at the front ATM and I walked by the drive thru, no cars were there it was just me, I remember I was able to make a quick exchange to smaller bills during pandemic and the person who was there was able to do it for me, take note there were No cars, I was just about To approach him and ask him if I could do the same but while I was just speaking and in the middle of a few Words he rudely interrupted me , he did not even say "I'm sorry but" he just went on and said it in a rude way and cut me off a few times, when I was trying to ask a question twice he rudely interrupted me again and wasn't even allowing me to finish my sentences, so I asked him what his name was since he wasn't wearing a name tag and his name wasn't on the front desk too, he seemed irritated and preoccupied but I was the only customer, I then told Anthony twice" that next time if you need to say something to a customer , say it in a polite way, " and do you know what his answer was? He just said "yeah okay" then I told him treat me like a customer then he said "okay" he never said sorry for his behavior and the manner he talked to me. I am so disappointed, is this how you train your employees for customer service? Is this how they talk to customers, he was talking to me like he had no respect for any customer, the way he answered, his demeanor, everything was completely off. I'm beyond disappointed so I was wanting to speak to you but you were in a meeting but I hope you can address this situation and correct it, he clearly does not know customer service and how to treat people, regardless of any a transaction. Hoping to hear from you regarding this matter.

I love the vibes here aestetically and with it being next door, I may need to make it my new hangout spot for work breaks. It's not overly busy, very clean and there is soooo much space so there's plenty of options on where to sit! I got a small honey lavender latte and it was amazing!! Very high quality tasting coffee with the perfect amount of flavor which isn't always easy to accomplish on floral drinks so props to the barista on that! I also had avocado toast with sliced boiled egg added.. it was okay but a bit too salty for my personal taste and it fell apart easily after taking a bite unfortunately and the egg just went all over the table. That was a little disappointing since i just spent a little over $20 for a small latte and a piece of toast with avocado, seasoning and a boiled egg but I'm open to giving the food here another try, I'll just get something completely different like a sandwich next time to go with my coffee. The cashier didn't seem that friendly as she didn't smile and gave me a kind of odd look during and after I ordered but aside from that and the overpriced salty avocado toast, it was a good experience. I'm not a capital one card holder currently but i may just open up a debit card with them as capital one card holders can get half off their coffee which is a pretty sweet deal for coffee in a bougie area such as this one! I'd give it 4.5 stars overall.

I'm usually a matcha purist, but the matcha flavor was very rich and authentic. Adding the cherry vanilla gave it a nice subtle sweetness and a floral note that paired surprisingly well with the earthy tea. I also grabbed a breakfast sandwich, and it was the perfect fuel for a long study/work session. It was served warm, and the quality was much better than your average "bank cafe" food. The biggest perk is definitely the 50% discount for Capital One cardholders. Getting a high-quality matcha latte for half price in downtown Bellevue is an unbeatable deal.

These statements are not intended to discourage doing business with Wells Fargo, the other banks listed below, or any/all of their affiliates. Furthermore, I have based my expressed beliefs of Wells Fargo by banking with them for over 5+ years. Is there a 0 stars? 0 stars for consistent Customer Service that ends up costing me money. 0 stars for NO Consistency in their policies. 0 stars for not letting you spend your own money when you want to. 0 stars for charging NSF fees for their mistakes. 0 stars for their lame feel good commercials. They should show a bunch of people in tears pleading about bounced checks that were a result of 3rd party issues. 0 stars for the HASSLE that you have to go through to fix their mistakes. I've never given such a bad rating to any institution before, and it's safe to say that WAMU, BofA also fit into this category. The customer service at this bank is nearly as bad as Washington Mutual and B of A. I don't care how many clever marketing campaigns and feel-good advertising spots I hear/see, Wells Fargo doesn't let you spend the money that you deposit into their bank unless certain facist-like critera have been met. Additionally with the new "terror" clauses even more of our rights have been taken away and banks are eager to CASH IN on this by simply stating that it's part of the "Patriot Act". People this is simply bull. Through no fault of my own, Wells Fargo rejected a very large paycheck of mine coming from an account that had millions in it. As a result I had so many bounced checks that I lost count. They refused to pay them. I am still fighting with them about this. They are saying my employer should pay them, when WF is the only institution that has rejected the check in the first place. While I think this issue will get resolved through enough kicking and screaming, the default for Wells Fargo is to STIFF THE CUSTOMER. I know, I know... this is big bank business, but you should know that the convenience of their online checking and services is far outweighed by the consistent rejection of good large checks all written from different sources. I will be closing my account with them this week. It's time to start my own barter system and my own currency. Anyone want to join me?
