Midtown Espresso

Delightful spot! I went here 3 days in a row while in Seattle for work. Green tea & egg/​cheese sandwich with avocado, spinach & tomato. All very good & healthy. Super lovely people and a nice spot to sit and watch the locals go by. The owner was warm and friendly and if I lived here I would go there for breakfast every day. He surprised me with a cappuccino on my last day, not only was it beautiful it was the yummiest I have ever had! I will definitely return on my next visit.

We were looking for a quick breakfast and this gem of a hole in the wall popped up :)
Small selection of quick delicious breakfasts like two eggs toast and a breakfast meat. I had a bagel with egg cheese turkey and avocado on an everything bagel and a small latte. My latte came out with latte art and was totally not expecting that super cute surprise! Very delicious and quick… But also extremely friendly! Thank you :)

This place was just okay, I wasn’t really blown away. I had been wanting to go here for awhile, but it’s hard to catch them open. They close at 1 PM everyday & they’re closed on weekends. So today I finally had the opportunity to get breakfast & a coffee. I walked in & it was pretty small, there were 3 or 4 tables & a window bar sitting area for 2. For such a great location I feel like they could do so much more with their space. They had no music playing, so all you could hear was the owner talking on the phone. The counter girl just watched me read the breakfast menu so I felt pressured to order something fast. I wasn’t really able to thoroughly check out the menu. I settled on a BLT & a vanilla latte. The sandwich & latte were great, they were ready pretty quickly. I would give them more stars if the atmosphere was a little better, that’s what I feel like the whole point of a café is.

Cute little café rightttt across from Top Pot (took all I had not to cross the street).
I saw that it had great reviews, so I was pretty excited! So far, I just feel pretty «meh» about this place. I ordered an organic green tea latte and the first half of the drink was pretty good. Once I got about halfway through, all the matcha flavor disappeared and I was just drinking steamed milk…
I’m not sure if they didn’t stir it well or what, but I couldn’t handle just drinking steamed milk. Bleck.
It’s a really cute place (very tiny) and the owner and his employee that was there was super nice. I’m interested in coming back for their breakfast sandwich or omelette options — and to give them a second chance on the drink.

Great coffee and tea! We have tried several coffee places while visiting Seattle from Austin and this place was one of the best. They also have tasty muffins and other delectable items. Great service as well. Definitely recommended.

delicious breakfast with reasonable prices. The owners were very kind and we had a good experience overall.

Nice people. Strip mall coffee shop. Cappuccino — Scorching hot. No taste. No pride in their craft.

Great breakfast sandwiches and other small bites. The iced coffee that I got might be the best ever. Plus they serve their hot drinks with style. A+ on the coffee art.

No frills breakfasts, just the way you would make it at home, attended by the nicest people ever! Breakfast sandwiches are great — including the avocado/​tomato/​egg/​cheese and breakfast plates. Nothing too greasy. Coffee isn’t bad either. Latte art will make you smile, or at least wonder what the face is smiling about.

Fantastic cappuccino and drip coffee and cream cheese Danish! So cheap and so good. Friendly people too.
I was a little disappointed to look this place up and see that I wasn’t the only one who got the cute little face in my drink…

A little corner coffee place serves really good coffee. I got a $ 3 tall Americano and I was very pleased, it’s super fresh !

I’ve been here with my kids and if they love it it’s a hit. Have been back every time I’ve visited and will continue. This 20 year old family owned business makes a nice, right-​size breakfast and very tasty breakfast sandwiches. Coffee is delicious so your day starts off great.

Good food, good coffee, good price. Nice staff there too. Definitely worth the stop for breakfast, and would come back.

We saw this out of the window of out hotel and decided to check it out. It was a great find. Fresh made breakfast. We all had scrambled eggs. My kids normally complain that the eggs don’t taste like home but the gobbled these up. Impeccable service. Super quiet and clean. We will be in Seattle for multiple nights and will return to this shop. I did not add a photo of my mocha as there others like it. The coffee was superb. A super find!

The coffee is good as well as their baked goods. My only complaint is they are a bit overpriced as they give you a very small serving of just a decent coffee.

We stayed across the street from Midtown Espresso & I’m so glad we tried it the first day! We ordered drip coffee with our breakfast but Alex said he could make a good vanilla latte… we agreed! By far the best I’ve ever had & my boyfriend (not a big coffee drinker) had one everyday with me! I’m sad that this wont be across the street since our vacay has ended! So DELISH… a must have!

Its a tiny hole in the wall that most people would pass by every day and never think to go in. Its not very flashy or modern, and the interior only has 3 tables and 1 counter to sit at.
ignore that, the coffee here is good, the owner remembers all his regular customers by name, and their favorite drink, and he customizes a design in their cut with a paint brush.
you just dont get that kind of attention at any of the chain coffee companies. Well done owners, well done.

The wifey and I went here twice while we were in town. Their lattes were simply great. The atmosphere reminded us of a little coffee shop in Europe. The breakfast sandwiches were good too. This place is just really nice. Would highly recommend.

All I ever get here is americano, which are flawless, but I guess that isn’t too hard. We stay at a nearby hotel frequently and I give this shop the 5^th star for being open before the rest of the area wakes up. The owner?/operator is relentlessly cheerful and always enjoy my first cup of the day when I get it here.

This little breakfast/​brunch/​lunch shop is super cute. They have a variety of breakfast sandwiches, pastries, and coffee. I even got a free coffee here once just because, which was really nice of the owner!
Prices are a little high for breakfast sandwiches (bacon egg and cheese run close to $ 5.00) but I can’t seem to find too many good breakfast sandwich places in Seattle for some reason. I’ve gotten it twice and it is pretty decent. You get a choice of bagel, wheat bread, English muffin, or a croissant.
