@ Cafe

This place was great – especially their Holy Aioli panini; it’s just too bad they’re closed now.

So sad that they are closing…

This place is like an oven on a really hot day. Since I got my buy 10 and get 1 for free card stamped, I feel like I need to come here more often. Who doesn’t love going to a coffee shop with a giant cat painted on the side of the building. The cat has that over caffeinated look. I noticed there are quite a few cat references in the décor.
I totally missed their specialty menu which has a lot of interesting drinks. They also serve sandwiches and panini. It comes with a side of salad which is pretty generous for the price. I’m slightly confused on the hours of their operations but love the fact that they have tons of board games lying around.
Plus you can watch the traffic jam on Rainier Ave.

This place is a great sandwich shop with unique recipes. They also have fun little games to play. The perfect place to spend your afternoon.

This is one of the best neighborhood cafes I’ve come across.
I love their mochas because the chocolate tastes real and not factory-​made (like at Starbucks) and the service is always super friendly and on point. Grace is a sweetheart and seems very attuned to customer needs re: coffee, food, etc.
Oh, and the panini sandwiches are delicious. I love the turkey one and they come with a light vinaigrette salad — perfect for lunch.

I really dig this place. I met up with a friend on Monday here and it’s super cute. Easy to find and there’s ample parking in the back (even though it’s street parking /​something I despise)! I ordered a mocha and it was awesome, one of the better ones I’ve had in awhile. I also got a almond poppyseed muffin, the girl behind the counter told me she had just put them in the case, so they were fresh. I wasn’t a fan of the muffin, it was really dense. That being said, I am still interested in trying some of the other pastries they have and trying other drinks.
Weirdly, after I parked my car and started walking to the Café, I swear I saw my dads car… and then I realized MY DAD WORKS NEXT DOOR. I felt like a shitty daughter. Maybe I can redeem myself for stopping in to see him from time to time before my stops in and out of Café?

Cute little coffee shop with great ambiance, décor, neat little things for sale (well curated selection, but which would seem odd anywhere else, such as necklaces)…lots of handmade paper flowers in the baking case and around on the counters.
The service was excellent, our drinks tasty, this looks like it would be terrible from outside (it’s right off of Rainier!) but is a haven inside. Will visit again :)
Park by the apartments just around the corner to the south, there’s ample parking there that I’ve seen.

And some point in your car’s life you’ll need to get the wheels aligned. Then you can take it to Truline up the block from here and go look for a really sweet café to hang out in for 2 hours.
A 3 minute walk down Rainier brings you to the steps of @café. A little jewel of a home in the middle of a office/​industrial area. It’s relaxed, the tunes are great and the worker bees are friendly and fantastic. The choc chip cookies are tasty and the teas are very good.

Needed to get my coffee fix and @café is the only coffee place near my cousins house so I checked it out. Seattle shops are always unique on how they are set up. Laid back atmosphere and just friendly people. I ordered a iced mocha and a chocolate almond pastry and everything was outstanding. It was a bit pricey for the size of the drink but well worth it. I would come back.
