This place is amazing! Coffee and Starbucks heaven! Lives up to the hype and better than a visit to the 1st Starbucks store in my opinion. Try a flight of cold brew w/one of their awesome food items!

Justin McKissick

My favorite coffee place in Seattle; this is NOT the Starbucks you know. Unique, high quality drinks and food, with a rotating seasonal menu and coffee selection. Store design is unparalleled.

Eric Tigre

Starbucks Reserve Roastery is a sprawling space designed to delight the senses. Hammered copper silos and wood grains round out an industrial lab process from bean to brew. Savor a cup at the bar . Read more

Connie Chiu

I sound like such a basic b but this place is amazing, mostly for the decor/ambience. Love the feel and overall structure . Cool to see how roasting mechanics happen. Some unique drinks worth trying.

Luke Wang

Try the flights to compare different beans and brewing techniques. Everything is made in store including all the syrups and pastries . Grab a seat by the baristas to get the best experience.

Ariana Voyer

Seriously impressive and worth the visit, even if you're not a coffee drinker. They have flights to try at the coffee bar , tons of gift items and a roastery for your viewing pleasure.

Dominic Hawsawi

A special selection of coffee & more that you won’t find at regular Starbucks, not forgetting the atmosphere too... I take my double espresso over a scoop of vanilla ice-cream... my treat!!

Student

This is so interesting coffee shop made by Starbucks,excellent service,amazing designI ordered two different pour over Brazil and Nicaragua but didn’t like them Highly recommend to visit this place

Lucille Fisher

A very fancy & expansive tasting room with modern vibe. Unique selection of Starbucks merchandise and more. Quite touristy , but I have to say I had my best Starbucks coffee here.

RAD Moose

If you are into coffee , this is the place to go. A little bit of tea on display and some other things, but this is not your typical Starbucks.Try the whole bean coffee bar to pick up exclusive beans!

Meg O'Brien

This is an awesome place to take visitors to Seattle who want a coffee experience. Huge space where you can see them roasting.

Maggie MacG

Fun! Got a vacuum pot of coffee at the slow bar . $10 but it was nice strong, flavorful, smooth coffee and the pot is enough to share.

Vivian Ramirez

Probably one of the nicest cafe experiences of all time. Once you get over that it’s Starbucks and appreciate the though that went into the design of this place and the inventive nature of the menu.

Carl Moukarzel

This is the pinnacle experience from Starbucks. I recommend a nitro cold brew along with one of the fresh baked goods from Princi (Starbucks’ new bakery ). Pricey but worth it - very busy on weekends

Natalia Zulkiewicz Benucci

perfect experience in watching the coffee beans process, enjoying a delicious breakfast or brunch . At night a cozy fireplace next to a hot drink.

Silvia Aki

This place is amazing: a mix of coffee store, roastery, flagship store, lunch place (Serious Pie ). The coffee tasting is awesome too...they also have exclusive coffees and beverages.

Tasneem Salim

Come for the coffee , stay for the pastries and people watching !

Throw like a GRL

This is probably how Charlie felt when he visited Willy Wonka's factory . This place is 100% cooler than the original Starbucks and I suggest getting the Nitro Coffee .

Paula Buzzo

Beautiful store with a lot of merchandise options, coffee roastery and tasting rooms .

Finn B

This is a fantastic Starbucks. Do yourself a favour and walk/drive here if you are visiting Seattle. You won't regret it. It's amazing!

Nadia Chilmonik

Gorgeous design and amazing detail. It's still starbucks but they are using different beans they are literally serving better coffee made by better baristas so even if u are skeptical check it out.

Eric Nelson

Worth a trip for folks visiting from out of town . Tasting room is gorgeous. Doesn't serve the normal Starbucks menu, focused on specialties based on the reserve roasts - a huge plus for me :)

Comma Saves Bob

This is not the Starbucks you know. Much better atmosphere, coffees (changes irregularly), and desserts . Bakery shop “Princi” is in the store and you can eat/buy their products as well .

Ugur Kaner

Quick tip on relatively drinkable coffee here: 1. Spot a type of bean that doesn't look burnt/sweaty (hint: coffee beans are brown, are not shiny), 2. Ask for a pour-over.

Surprisingly great coffee , Starbucks is returning to its roots. I had the espresso (Ethiopian) with sweet Italian cream. Be prepared for a long wait if you got a drink wi/ espresso

Brent Gatewood

A great spot. If you like coffee , this is a must stop. I got the bourbon aged cold roast - really good!

Jason Stoff

Try the Pantheon roast - you can only get it here. Ask for it in any drink on the menu.

Jonno Schmidt

This store did what I never thought possible from Starbucks. They actually made *good* coffee . My cappuccino rivaled that of Stumptown and Intelligentsia cafes . Seriously surprised, go Starbucks!

Phuong Nguyen

It's a tourist location in itself. Good for people and "coffee " watching. It can get busy, but there's always something new to do every visit. Good spot for photo shoots!

Ann ???? García

Try the whiskey barrel aged cold brew , it's such an amazing experience for the ones that love whiskey and coffee , an amazing combination!

Ugur Kaner

Hands down the fanciest coffee shop I've ever been ❤️️ Their coffee still suck tho. Maybe someday they learn how to properly rest those beans after roasting. It's all burnt and bitter, as usual.

Ozge Y

Great experience! See the coffee being roasted and order an espresso flight to your table! Dont forget to visit the bathroom !

Onur Karaagaoglu

it is yet another starbucks with a cool interior design . grab your coffee from the victrola across the street and enjoy the tables here

Billy Amp

I really really want to try all the coffee here. Best Starbucks ever. This is REAL coffee !

Kat ????

Flight of Bourbon Whiskey with cold brew coffee . Interesting experience but probably not worth $16. They have pretty nice pizza toward the right side of the Roastery though!

Cameron Gidari

It's like a playground for coffee lovers. Make sure to take enough time to walk around and take the self-guided tour .

Great to see different brewing methods up close. Come to study, relax, but the coffee is not out of this world.

William Huba

Really amazing industrial space without sacrificing the "oh crap I forgot to take it out of the oven" flavor Starbucks is known for.

Abby Anderson Jones

Really busy during the weekend but very worth going for the unique menu and coffee flights !

ᴡ Santos

Impressive place to get coffee . The food is incredible, theres a Serious Pie inside, and they have a huge selection of local made gifts to buy.

Benjamin Chait

Great selection of coffee . Options for pour-over, French press or Starbucks Clover press. Pretty fantastic experience, and a really neat building.

Amir Baharlou

The americano con crema tasted great. Make sure to try the ham and gruyère croissant as well .

Christine Park

Such a great experience especially if you are a coffee snob. Who knew mint and coffee would go so well ?

Daryl Pritchard

Sit at the bar and let a barista teach you about the different brewing methods and how they change the coffee .

Jacob Ford

Head toward the bathrooms but pass them and stand by the trash cans at the end of the hallway. Best view of the conveyor network from here.

Cusp25

Interesting coffee drinks like you won't find elsewhere- cool space

Jeff Bowlin

Pantheon blend is the best coffee option around when it's in season. Get a coffee flight downstairs to wow your out-of-town guests.

Geoffrey Brailsford

Drinks are priced pretty high (over 7 bucks for a latte ) but worth it for premium beans. This place is trendy and lively . Worth checking out.

Bommy

Whoa fancy ! Pop in to browse and admire all the fancy equipment. Check out the downstairs area to see the packaging conveyor belt .

Jeb

Try one of the reserve coffees that are roasted on-site and uniquely sold in this store. Try the Paradeisi blend if they have it.
