THE BEST COFFEE IN SEATTLE I look forward to my coffee every morning at Monorail Espresso on Pike Street in Seattle! I highly recommend this gem to both Seattle locals and travelers exploring the city. The location is incredibly convenient, right in the heart of downtown Seattle and just across from the Seattle Convention Center.
What sets Monorail Espresso apart is not just its prime location but also the premium coffee they serve. The coffee is top-notch, and as a coffee enthusiast, I was thoroughly impressed. They take their craft seriously and it shows in every sip. I will make excuses on the weekend to come downtown to get this coffee, it’s that good.
Moreover, the personalized service here is exceptional. The Teada, Jessie, Kait and the team are friendly and welcoming, making you feel like a regular from the moment you walk up. It's evident that they care about their customers and take pride in providing excellent service.
A bit of history adds to the charm of this place. Monorail Espresso has a rich history, starting as a tiny kiosk back in 1980. Over the years, it has grown into a beloved local institution known for its commitment to quality coffee and warm hospitality. They also have locations on Westlake near Amazon, 4th Avenue, Columbia and a new spot coming to the Seattle Convention Center soon.
