Stillhouse Coffee — Restaurant in Edmonds

This coffee shop has such a cute, chic, and preppy vibe — definitely a wholesome little spot with super friendly staff. The decor is adorable, and the energy feels warm and inviting. The girls working there were absolutely lovely — kind, accommodating, and great to chat with. They gave some sweet recommendations and really made us feel welcome.

But unfortunately, the drinks were a major letdown. As a passionate coffee lover who enjoys rich Latin American and African Arabica beans — think Brazilian, Colombian, Ethiopian — I was seriously disappointed. The coffee lacked depth, quality, and flavor. After just a few sips, it went straight into the trash. It simply didn’t meet the standard of a true specialty coffee experience.

I also asked about their matcha and was bummed to find out it was distributed and ground in the U.S. I’m a big fan of authentic Japanese matcha, and this just didn’t cut it for me.

My husband ordered the blueberry latte, which sounded fun, but it just tasted like regular coffee — no real blueberry flavor came through.

The silver lining? The snacks! We loved the pistachio loaf — moist, flavorful, and delicious. That alone might get us to come back. I also have my eye on the cardamom loaf for next time.

In short: Come for the vibes, stay for the snacks — but don’t expect...

I really appreciate how this coffee shop is able to turn on a dime based on feedback.

When this cafe opened, I was super impressed and was relieved to have found my home cafe. The espresso blend reminded me of Ritual in SF and you could tell the baristas had a decade of experience.

The drinks that i ordered had flavors that are super hard to express in espresso like notes of bergamot and cinnamon.

With new staff the quality did fluctuate a bit. I would keep getting drinks that were harsh/overextracted or even super underextracted/sour(maybe a puck prep/shot timing problem?). Eventually I gave up and just started ordering Americanos.

But I gave this feedback to one of the staff and the VERY NEXT DAY i found that the coffee had improved massively(back to where it was). Even the latte art!

I'm really impressed by their systematic changes and know how hard it must be especially with new staff that are up and coming.

I do wish they would venture into co ferments for their pourovers. That would really put it on the map for a GOAT coffee shop in the...

From the moment you step into this inviting space, you're enveloped in the type of warm and personal service that only a family-owned business can offer.

One of the standout features of this coffee shop is the personalized service. The owners and baristas here go the extra mile to make you feel like a welcomed regular. It's not uncommon for them to remember your name after just a few visits. During quieter moments, they'll check in on you, offering a refill of water or ensuring you have everything you need for a comfortable visit.

Of course, the star of the show is the coffee itself. Their light to medium roast coffees truly showcases the nuanced flavors of the beans. They also have a wonderful selection of pastries.

The ambiance of the coffee shop is another highlight. Drawing inspiration from Scandinavian and California coastal aesthetics, the space exudes a sense of hygge—cozy, inviting, minimalistic.

This coffee shop is poised to become a favorite among locals and...
