Expect a bustling, slightly overpriced cafe situated above Pike Place Market with views of the waterfront. Food options are limited, but the coffee service is phenomenal. I enjoyed my morning latte with coworkers in comfortable seating. The restrooms were very clean and the staff were all kind and professional. Will definitely add this to my Pike Place recommendations list.
The coffee here tastes really good — like smooth caramel, quite complex and very balanced. Serious coffee lovers will enjoy it because indeed the coffee does taste amazing! ??☕️☕️I bought a bag of their coffee beans because it made sense since it comes with a free drink. Some people may wonder if $6 cup of coffee is worth it, I mean it is if you also get beans or the free gift mug with it.Other things on the menu is they make their own vegan milk and cinnamon buns — maybe next time to try those.Anyone who’s not sure how to get to the cafe, it’s on the top floor of the building and the entrance to their stairwell is beside the frozen yogurt shop.
I went there out of curiosity to check out the coffee shop after eating at Pike’s Place. I almost walked out after seeing the latte price but my husband noticed the free drink with beans purchase sign and since we wanted to get beans anyways, seemed like a good deal for us.The cinnamon roll was also a sticker shock but since the drink was free, I ordered it as well. Wow, hands down the best cinnamon roll I’ve ever had and the latte was the best i had in Seattle for my short few day stay.Looking at the reviews now, wish I had known about the free mug with drink purchase as a souvenir since it was such a pleasant experience. The service from the staff was equally exceptional as well. Definitely recommend!
First stop in seattle, a story-like coffee shop near pike market. I'd say it's located on the 3rd floor, but I'm very not sure how pikes market floors work. The stairs are a little hidden inside, so look for the signs.We waited in line about 10 minutes to get into the shop, and they even had a deal to to get a free mug for first time visitors. The espresso drinks are definitely on the expensive side, $6-$7.50, so getting the mug is definitely a nice gesture.We also ordered a bag of coffee, $17, which comes with a drink of choice, so at least we think we were getting something free out there, lol.After getting my drink, I finally get why it is expensive. The coffee is extremely smooth and tasty, without any bitterness. And the place itself just such a cozy and hangout spot; people feel no rush to chat, to work, to study, to fall in love, or just to rest from a flight.Most importantly, only two employees are making coffee and serving a full house coffee shop. And they are doing amazing job and are especially friendly and professional.
Gorgeous coffee shop! Loved the comfy couches, wooden decor, and large windows letting in lots of natural light. I also received a free ceramic mug for being a first time customer. Believe the hype; you don’t want to miss Storyville at Pike Place
Amazing people, friendly staff, the environment is dreamy cafe heaven. I will come back and bring people here, the coffee is also amazing! ☕️ <3
Was told this is a “must-try” and was not disappointed. We had a long day of travel and the baristas were so kind. Made recommendations and ended up with the smoothest cup of coffee. Not to sweet and perfect temp. Also tried the salted caramel cookie. Adding this to a list of must stops if we are ever in the area again.
Delicious but very large and quite expensive cafe lattes here. Gorgeous environment complete with an active fireplace. Also had the granola with vanilla bean yoghurt which was a great way to start the day. Not a lot of food options - mostly small items like pastries, cheese sandwiches, etc.
Move over Starbucks - Storyville is the coffee shop you’ll want to visit on your next trip to Seattle. We’re glad we skipped the long line at the Original Starbucks and came here instead. The refined and elegant decor of Storyville, along with the excellent coffee and treats was a perfect pit stop while exploring downtown Seattle and Pike Place market. We received a complimentary coffee mug since it was our first visit which was a nice gesture and makes for a cute souvenir.
This place is amazing! The view, the vibes, the service, and most importantly the coffee! A must for anyone visiting Seattle and passing by the pike marketplace.
