Diva Espresso

Pro’s delightful barrista… good pastry selection… nice calm music and good latte.
Con. I could not find 1 comfortable chair in the place… I often stop at coffee shops to do my home health charting… I would love to make this a regular stop… but the chairs are a deal breaker! I will check back to see if they’ve been replaced sometime… then you will have a new regular customer:)

Best white chocolate mocha I’ve ever had and I’ve been to a lot of different coffee shops! I always go when I want to treat myself.

This was a pleasant surprise. Classic Seattle espresso shop. It is hard to get a good cup of simple espresso, in the authentic Italian or French way — most places in the US do well at making lattes and mochas and Americanos, but not so much at the authentic espresso experience. Diva espresso does not dissapoint!

Love the coffee!
Always get soy (or Almond Milk or Hemp) vanilla lattes. And a breakfast burritto/​wrap.
They have left over desserts for $ 1, just as yummy as new ones. :-)
At this particular location, service is kind of slow.
But Diva in general is one of my favorite coffee places in Seattle.

My usual post-​run destination. Their chumly is a great incentive to finish a workout! A bit pricey at times, but nothing too over the top. Good coffee, fast service, nice atmosphere for meeting up with friends. Keep up the good work, Diva Espresso.

This is a go-​to coffee spot for anyone who lives nearby! I’m always encouraging people to give Diva a try (either this location or the others) because the drinks and coffee are high quality! My only problem is that this location is teeny tiny. If it could somehow magically double in size to accommodate all the people that want to drink great coffee and sit somewhere, it would be my absolute ideal coffee spot!!!

Awesome coffee, Hemp milk option and you can usually get in and out in under five minutes which is awesome.

It’s really more 3.5 stars. This is a decent little spot for coffee as an alternative to the big boys out there. Decent pastries and snacks. The staff is very friendly. The coffee is above average. If you’re in the area you’ll be happy you have them a try.

Great coffee! They roast their beans fresh each day and the taste is amazing!

Found it by accident. What a treasure! Coffee (Americano) was out of this world. The staff was very nice, friendly, and helpful.

I can’t say enough good things about Diva. The drinks are fantastic, the coffee is fresh and the service is superior to any coffee shop I’ve ever been to.
Drinks: I’m lactose and am unable to have milk and drinking soy is not at the top of my list. So finding out they serve drinks with almond milk I was ecstatic! My friend and I asked the lady if they had a drink that was super low in a calorie intake but still full of flavor. Her answer: «the mezzo of course!» So ordering my drink is always a mouthful: Grande Almond Milk Mezzo, decaf with sugar-​free hazelnut. I also will sometimes switch it up and get the sugar-​free caramel which is also really good.
Food: their pastries are fantastic! even the ones they have on the «1-​day-​old» are still really good. They offer a nice selection of gluten-​free and also vegan. There is a peanut butter something else cookie that is vegan — my tastebuds highly recommend. I found myself going so often that I went in once and they gave me a free cookie, just because I asked about it. I will forever remember that.
Service: so fantastic! always very helpful, upbeat, happy and ready to serve you. I swear they hire only nice people because that’s all I have ever received from them is super nice people who make killer coffee!
Ambiance & business: they have a cute setup, offer free Wi-​Fi and a service of «bring in your own cup, save 10¢» which is great! They also started offering a Diva Card so the more coffee you buy, you get points and then a free drink.
I highly recommend stopping at this coffee shop if you have a chance.

Not as cute-​n-​snuggly as some of the other Divas (looking at you, Wallingford), but that’s quite all right; tons of light, lots of table space, LOTS of parking, and the same excellent beans as the others in the mini-​chain. Friendly, too.

I feel like this place should be better. The outside always invites me in. In all my visits, I haven’t gotten a fantastic coffee. It tends toward the bitter (certainly NOT as bad as lotsa-buck’s coffee!) I feel the same about the vibe inside. It never quite adds up to what I think it will be. It is not cozy and comfortable, which is something I want when I’m hanging out drinking expensive coffee. Let’s face it — mochas and lattes are not cheap anywhere in this town.

Hi my name is Christal I been coming to diva for over 3 years 3 times a day! No that isn’t a typo i really do ! I really love cj, Ray Alice all of them izzy ‘Amelia there a few more but u get the point They alway have my back ! Love them try them ! Break up with Starbucks ! U might find yourself a lot happier !

No outlets. Coffee was poorly made which made not having an outlet to charge my phone worse. Not returning.

I’ve been going to Diva off and on for years. Before I lived in the neighborhood, I would stop here for a latte. I’ve always enjoyed the space, particularly when my kiddo was younger. Not all places strike a balance in terms of being welcoming to adults and children but I always thought this one did a good job. The furniture could be more modern but it’s okay.
Staff members have always been friendly. I’ve had conversations that are simply small talk as well as longer talks about roasting beans. I’ve caught them right before they close before and still been able to get whatever I need.
Their coffee has always been okay but has never blown me away. The notes are subtle and less than memorable. I prefer bolder flavors.
This is a good neighborhood option within walking distance.

They have one of the best eggnog latte, go try it, you won’t be disappointed. If you are a big fan of Ethiopian coffee they have plenty of selection. The Employees that work there are very nice and generous, all and all they know how to provide a very good’s customer service. The price is relatively cheep but above all they make the best coffee. You won’t be disappointed!

I don’t like giving a low rating to a place I have received good service and good coffee. This place is so hit and miss though. Some times the coffee is fantastic, other times it’s really bad. They do seem to have a revolving staff, so that could have something to do with it.
I really hope they are able to work on their consistency of service and quality of beverage because when they are doing things right, they do them so very right.

Maybe call me lucky? Or a trendsetter, I dunno. But when I make my way to the Greenwood Diva, I swear I always am walking in when the shop is fairly empty. So I can’t say I really have had some of the issues that others have experienced.
With that said, coffee is consistently pretty good here. Service is speedy but when I am sitting back I can totally see what grinds the gears of my fellow Unilocalfolk.
Overall, not a bad choice for a good cup of java.

I’ll be honest. When we moved to the neighbourhood, I viewed this place with a little disdain because of its name + negative connotations. Diva? Pfft.
It was only after a house guest sampled their coffee that I stepped inside for a coffee myself. After my drink, my mind was quickly changed to the positive column. It will teach ME to judge a place solely on its name.
When it’s hot out, I recommend their blended drinks. They are properly blended with no ice chunks at the bottom and aren’t cloyingly sweet. My favourite is the Mocha Chumley with whip… ack! So good!
I’ve never had a rude exchange with any of the baristas there but I’ve only gone in the afternoons during their non-​rush periods. I’m not justifying anyone’s behaviour if they were indeed grouchy, I’m just clarifying my experiences.
