This place is a WA Top 5 Cafe contender.
Updated Review 9/15/2025
Anthem has 6 WA locations and I have been a customer at two; one in Tacoma and one in Puyallup (My favorite). First of all, if you are not allergic to nuts of any kind - try the pistachio pizza. When I first eyed that item on the menu, I thought to myself: "Wow that sounds disgusting". I'm here to tell you that it is amazing; that pizza HAS SO MUCH FLAVOR. The glaze compliments the pistachio which adds to the cheese and brings together the light seasoning on it. It's a wild ride of flavors that you'd assume do not work but it does! Think of Salt & Straw but pizza form.
The baristas at the Puyallup location are cool cats and I enjoy that each barista is featured on their menu with a special drink designed from them -- adds uniqueness. From the simplicity of a mocha to cold brew and then full circle to three staff inspired drinks, they are quality after quality after quality every time.
I enjoy this place a lot, I live in north WA and only get the privilege to be in Puyallup twice a year due to my security job at the faire. Do yourself a favor and visit this place, specifically the Puyallup location. Cafes are a hobby of mine and this place has soul! Give this place...

Really awesome friendly service at this place. Unfortunately, it took over 15 minutes to get my drink order. It probably wouldn't have been an issue because we weren't in a hurry, but it was just so awkward. My hubby holding our table in the back of the store while I stood up front in everyone's way waiting. I could have sat at the bar, but I honestly never expected to be there that long.
The place itself is super clean and well appointed with a variety of seating for various needs. Family, group, date, working, quick bite, it's all going on. The atmosphere is trendy, kind of hipster, or my understanding of the aesthetic.
I didn't try the food, but it looked and smelled delicious! Very appetizing, even the...
Read moreI haven’t been here in like 6 years and forgot what kind of drinks they offer. Today 7/30/21 at 4:00pm I walked in and there was a line. I walked over to 2nd counter where they were making ppl drinks. The woman that was making the drinks “stopped” for a brief moment to help me on what drinks they offer. (She can definitely multitask). Hi5👋🏽 to her
This establishment definitely has great customer service & hospitality….
I would definitely recommend this place.
Today I decided to revisit this establishment and I acted on it. Today’s visit was totally different from the last time which was 10 days ago. The person counting her till ($) had to call a few times for another cashier which I was okay with me because i wasn’t in any rush. The one thing I was not satisfied with was my strawberry mango smoothie was not a small, but I drink.
Anyhow I will still revisit this place because people make...
