I usually go to the one in Greenlake, which is amazing. However I went to the one in Wallingford yesterday and I was not impressed at all. The barista was annoyed we we’re even there, she told me it would take 10 minutes to get a blended drink (keep in mind we were the only people in there) i also ordered a breakfast sandwich that was a mistake because it was cold all through the middle. I was honestly shocked at the difference between the service and quality between the Wallingford location and the Green lake location. If you have the time, don’t waste it going to this one head to greenlake.
I don't expect hugs and a cookie from the baristas but you'd expect folks would be a little more enthusiastic simply for being employed. Though nothing unusual for this day and age.I like the store, menu and environment but some of the staff lately is really disappointing.
Truffles are not worth it. Strange texture, disappointing flavors.Coffee is good.
A chocolate cafe?! Absolute heaven for me. My sister and I both got the Europa hot chocolate on our last visit, one with soy and one with hemp milk. Europa hot chocolate is essentially sipping chocolate - far more rich than regular hot chocolate and highly recommended for chocoholics! They have espresso drinks as well but it was evening and we didn't need the caffeine.Their truffles and chocolate goodies are very good. They sell a small assortment of baked goods from All About Cookies - the vegan chocolate chip pecan cookie was amazing! The gentleman helping us out was super nice. He was the only one working so there was a small line but nobody minded - gave us time to browse all the goodies before ordering! This is also a perfect place to pick out a chocolate gift for the chocoholic in your life. Or even work from - plenty of seating and free wifi.I'll definitely be back when visiting Seattle again.
4.5 stars. Great cafe, great staff, great ambience. I love coming here whenever I want to read. The spread of warm wood and lighting is reminiscent of classic PNW cafe vibes, especially during rainy days. Many cafes in Seattle tend to have the same "modern" look and feel (which I'm fine with), but Chocolati Cafe Wallingford charmingly stands out among the crowd in its own unique, cozy ways.If you are a student needing to focus on grinding out some work, this cafe is really perfect for you. They don't play loud music; there are many cafes in Seattle that play music loudly to churn customers as fast as possible. The music level here is just right to be able to focus on your work/have conversation with your group mates.There are plenty of seating tucked away in upper-floor areas that really help you focus. I love reading there. Also, they close at 7:30pm, instead of 4 or 5pm like other cafes in the area! The drinks are great too! I really like their frozen drink selection.The only reason why I say 4.5 stars: they sometimes are closed during their regular business hours without notice, and I can't figure out why.Nevertheless, a great cafe and definitely one I'll keep coming back to :)
Cute shop and cozy. Good chocolate and even better hot chocolate. There is additional seating upstairs with a nice view of the street. They have local artwork for sale.
Going to sound cringey but hello my dear cherrios and currently at the Balcony, coffee and tea paradise! I ordered a milk tea with extra milk and a dash of hazelnut syrup because I like to taste my drink. Service exceptional, no wait, and prompt all of which appreciated. Would give a 8.9 out of 10 and would come back. Parking lot is small so fyi.
You get a free truffle on your first visit! My mocha was delicious and there is plenty of seating upstairs
I love to sit upstairs facing the street and people watch! Chocolates are so good. I don’t drink a lot of hot chocolate, but theirs is quite rich—enough by itself for dessert depending on what you get.
This place is great and have some interesting coffee drinks. I had the Mexican and it was sweet,spicy & Chocolati.. I think it had paprika in it!
