Caffe Vita - Seattle

Located in the historic Tashiro Kaplan building, Caffe Vita is a really cool place to grab a cup coffee. It has two floors with lots of natural light and I like its turn of the 20th century aesthetics. The building used to house a hardware store and a public market and was renovated to artist lofts back in 2004. The staff is really nice and get you in and out quickly. I don't frequent this place often, but when I do, it's for their breakfast pizza! Tasty stuff!

I've been to the Chino Hills, California location a couple of times, so I was surprised when I found out that Caffe Vita is a chain based in Seattle. The almond milk lattes here offer more earthy flavors, with a good bit of sweetness to keep it balanced. The barista definitely knew how to handle the almond milk, and so it came out an almost velvety texture; it was perfect for the three minutes of rainy weather. The baristas here were friendlier than their Californian counterpart for sure, so it was nice to to be welcomed to Seattle with friendly faces. Definitely worth coming here, especially if you enjoy studying or reading in quiet places with ample space

My boyfriend and I are in Seattle from Charlotte wanted to check out Caffe Vita (at the suggestion of our Uber driver bf's sister who lives here) so we walked about 20 minutes and... WOW. First off, it's super impressive on the inside if you're really into like off-beat cafes. I loved it. Service was prompt, prices were great, and I tried a hot latte made with oat milk which was suggested to me by the cashier. I've had oat milk in cold coffee before and wasn't impressed, but I decided to give it another try. I'm so glad I did! Both my boyfriend and I commented on how thick and velvety the foam was and just how quality the drinks tasted overall. We're just incredibly impressed. Plus, it's at least moderately affordable. Around the same price as two lattes at Starbucks but (and I never thought I'd say this) much better all around.

Terrific coffeehouse near King Street Sounder Station. Coffee was excellent and a work of art! Keep walking past Starbucks.

I was left a bit disappointed by this particular establishment. The location is very convenient, and the drinks look great, but the prices are a bit high and the matcha latte came unsweetened and lacked taste. The bathroom was also poorly maintained.
