Seattle espresso wallingford

Regardless of shop hours, catering orders can be placed and picked up at the Wallingford shop by calling or online at seattleespresso. To that end, Patty and her crew are working to get the word out. She watches the parents walking their kids to the Exploration Academy in Wallingford Center, or to St. As we talked a few customers came through, and laughed with Scott behind the counter, and it felt wonderfully homey. I suggested a coffee cart outside of St. Her idea: stop in and ask us about coffee catering and receive free specialty coffee or tea.

Not long ago my family and I were walking home from breakfast at the Varsity Inn. They were amazed that no coffee carts were nearby. Maybe Seattle Espresso could donate a set amount of coffee per month. I learned about Seattle Espresso at a recent Hamilton parent coffee hour — where they had provided the coffee. Thank you!. Patty was enthusiastic, coffee was great and cookies were even better!

A major challenge is that the store closes a 4pm. I think store location off of 45th and operating hours are the biggest barriers. Way to go Patty — nice to know you have set up shop nearby. See you soon! On my first visit I bought a sampler box of shortbread cookies for a really special group of people who were leaving on a boat trip.

Even a week later when they came back, their first comment to me was how much they loved the cookies. I tend to make my coffee at home, but I make a point of checking in for the occasional empanada or — a new addiction — the Brazilian biscotti with cornmeal and anise. Plus, it just feels good in there.

I had a nice latte and a delicious and reasonably priced gluten free cookie. I am Celiac and had no problems with their cookies. Very friendly staff. I do not think the location is a problem.

Was a time when The Store Next Door was a thriving business. I still remember their delicious baked goods. I remembe rwhen the bakery next door was a regula rplace to stop by. I do NOT think the way to get business is to simply donate donate.. I think she has to increase outreach and maybe coupons, hours.. Iused to go to the coffee place in front of QFC occasionally outside yet never go to the one upstairs….

Patty was so generous and donated two boxes of coffee and a box of shortbread to a bake sale my office held to support Food Lifeline! I am a fuel regular, but this spot is a bit closer. I have popped in 3 times mid morning to find no one behind the counter.

Fuel is a local company, they know me, they welcome my dog and there is always someone behind the counter. No on ? Deal breaker. Patty is awesome, and it is fantastic to have her as a neighbor and a business owner. This is our community!! No on is not a deal breaker. Monsanto is taking over the world, and most everything we eat has some form of genetic modification in at least one of the ingredients.

It is the world we live in, and even if you are growing your own veggies, chances are your seeds are… Monsanto modified. Give your love and respect to your neighbor, and allow her to express her opinion without harsh ramifications.

To the extent their big money campaign poisons the neighborhood, we lose twice. If you want to promote your favorite other coffee shop, fine, but find a better reason. When I first took a look at the place, I was turned off by the excessively loud, somewhat trashy signage advertising the opening. CMA Gallery has noise covered especially Wednesday nights, when you can hear it four blocks away , and the Bridal Shop has enough trash outside for the neighborhood if not the city already.

There was no indication that the proprietor had ever made espresso before. Add the apparently unenthusiastic counter help, and this is a recipe for a very short lifespan. I agree about the hours needing to expand. The staff was super nice, but my latte was so-so compared to Fuel and Appassionato, my usual stop offs. I stopped in again on a Sunday afternoon with my family to give them another try, and they were closed. Pretty poor judgement taking sides on a political issues — especially being on the wrong side of for the culture of this neighborhood.

La Boulangerie is closing? That place had a great vibe, but the baked good were terrible. Oh, please, please, please someone open a tasty french bakery like Cafe Besalu or Le Reve in Wallingford!! It is your choice to be unconcerned; however, I am extremely concerned about this and resent being told not to be.

Good morning, Wallyhood! Thank you to all of the support and positive remarks about our retail store. I am truly impressed that most of the negative comments are directed soley at me for my perceived lack of intelligence, shop hours and my inability to know what espresso is. I am so glad to know that Wallingford is still in North America.

Heres the scoop: Coffee shops are like restaurants. There are many excellent coffee shops in Wallingford. We hope you will think of us as one of them. We have offered all of you a complimentary specialty coffee or tea. Swing on by sometime and see what we are all about. If you like what we are doing; spread the word. God bless America. There are definitely different points of view about GMO type food. Yes, you have your right to free speech as do the rest of us, but I agree it shows poor judgment using your business to take a stand on such a divisive issue.

Anne — Monsanto is taking over the world because we are letting them take over the world. I was a step in the right direction to give people the information they SHOULD have to make their own decisions about what to buy. I see I as a first step. The issue is not going away. Many, many more people are aware of this issue and have a lot more knowledge about it than before this election. I believe the fight against GMO-type food needs to happen on multiple fronts.

At one end is letting a small business owner know that her position on matters. At the other end is battling against giant corporations like Monsanto when it comes to what consumers are able to know about food products.

And again, I wish there were a way to influence entities like the Gates Foundation to stop being a funding pipeline for GMO research. Dear Patty, Welcome to the neighborhood. I love supporting local businesses and was so excited to hear about a new coffee shop in Wallingford. The No sign was very strange to me. Either way, really not a smart move. I decided to try it anyway.

I know good people who were against for some very interesting reasons … and much can be forgiven for a good cup of coffee. Here are my thoughts after I was actually able to get inside because of the aforementioned funky hours. The barista was a very nice person but she did NOT know how to make coffee.

My complimentary latte was almost boiling hot. After it cooled off a bit, it just tasted very watery. Terrible coffee all the way around. I tried a couple of the baked goods. They were OK but nothing special or that I would want to go back for. It was cramped and claustrophobic with clutter and mess everywhere. There were a bunch of creepy religious paraphernalia hanging on the wall for sale: crosses, bleeding heart sculptures.

The kinds of things that you would expect from a cheap remake of the Exorcist. All the little furniture was uncomfortable and wobbly and made out of wood. No comfy armchairs or couches or anything you would want to sit on for more than a couple of minutes.

I have no idea how they will stay in business with Fuel right around the block. I hope they close down soon and we get a nice business there instead.

That last commentary was really unkind. Wishing a business to fail? Do you even know what you said? Hoping a business fails? I too voted for and even questioned the owner about her thoughts. Right or wrong we all are entitled to our own opinion. Remember you live in America. She changes her art on a regular basis to support the local artist. Needless to say I enjoyed my coffee and I have always been a fan of her shortbread cookies. You know who you are! Thanks, gentlemen, for helping him out of a potential traffic tie-up situation.

He sensed something was amiss and was headed in the right direction, so near yet so far. RANT to a lack of color. Of the 10 new vertical living units recently put on the market in my view, every single one of them is either black or gray or some combination of the two.

As if Seattle needs more gray! Enough with the bleak and depressing black and gray reality of s TV. If they must take the complete view of the sky, please give us some color! RAVE to the kind and honest soul who saw my forgotten purse hanging from a chair at a Wallingford espresso bar and brought it inside to the staff. They had it ready when I called in a panic.

You made my day! And another rant for city of Seattle parking enforcement for not ticketing cars on Northwest 65th Street at 32nd Avenue Northwest. It is hard to navigate the corner because of inconsiderate parking. RANT to those who talk loudly on cellphones while walking through neighborhoods at 5 a.
