Best Coffee Shops and Cafes in Renton

"Ascend 520 feet in the air to the Observation Deck (the top of the needles stands at 605 feet!) near the top of the Space Needle. The elevators to the top are part of the thrill!. The 43-second ride in a glass enclosed elevator takes you to the top where you can enjoy the SkyCity (revolving) Restaurant, 360 degree views of the Seattle skyline and harbor, and interactive SkyQ kiosks to play and discover on."

"Can one think of Seattle without visions of the iconic Space Needle?. An absolute must-do when visiting the city is to get close to that needle!. Built in 1962 for the World’s Fair, the Space Needle is still one of the most recognizable structures in the world, and for good reason—it really is cool!"

"This is easily Seattle’s most recognized tourist attraction. A trip to the top is well worth the trek; from 520 feet above the ground, you can see panoramic views of the surrounding area below. Consider going at night to see the city lights or at sunset for some amazing views."

"Boasting four locations across the city these breakfast specialists have your brunch needs covered, highlighted by more than a half dozen Benedicts made with everything from smoked salmon to braised pork shoulder, as well as a diverse range of other "favorites" including biscuits topped with a local, foraged mushroom gravy, and a dungeness crab grilled cheese with gouda & spinach pesto, but the best option is probably something from their breakfast Bar, which is basically just a bunch of different kinds of pancakes, French toast, and waffles. How to Order: Call 206.462.6400 for pickup and GrubHub for delivery. Available for Delivery/Takeout"

"website | directions | neighborhoods: 4 locations in Ballard, Roosevelt, U-District, & SLU | best for: brunch with vegetarian options. Portage Bay is loud and often has a wait. You’d think that be enough to deter me, but rather they’ve ended up on my best brunch in Seattle list."

"It's served all day, seven days a week at the Portage Bay Ballard and 65th Street locations. The other spots serve brunch all day on the weekends and until 11:30 a.m."

"Vegan comfort food at this Roosevelt cafe includes pancakes, scrambles, and biscuits for breakfast, plus fried faux chicken, fettuccine alfredo, and garlic quinoa with kale and chopped walnuts for dinner. It’s open for takeout with preorders through the website, or delivery via Postmates and Caviar."

"But seriously, this chocolate cream pie will leave you in a daze of dreaming for more. Rather than just asking for a slice of the pie, I assure you that you will be asking for the ENTIRE pie. Just look at the drool-worthy whipped cream and buttery pie crust."

"OnlineThe best friend team behind Lady Grey Cakes, an online custom cake storefront, whips up artful creations that range from unexpected (blueberry pancake-influenced cake, anyone?) to comforting classics like dark chocolate with Nutella buttercream. The two-woman operation divides the work—Becca Hapke guides the menu, while Alia Al-Hatlani uses her background in oil painting to guide the pastel-swirled buttercream designs. They can satisfy any age, but these elegant wedding cake–adjacent decorations seem better suited for grown-up celebrations."

"The Sugar Bakery and Cafe was spun from a husband and wife’s experimentation with the apples from a tree in their front yard, but they didn’t stop there: pumpkin mousse cake, chocolate truffles, and toasted coconut cake show they’ve moved well past the apple tree. Salt and Straw has a handful of tailormade ice creams featuring local ingredients in each city. Image: Courtesy of Salt and Straw"

"Created by Stephanie Crocker (no relation to Betty) and her husband, John McCaig, Sugar Bakery makes cakes, pies, pastries, cookies, coffee, soups, and sammies…. 1014 Madison StFirst Hill 206-749-4105"

"Editor's Note: Photo taken from the establishment's official social account. Lunch CHEF SALAD 🥗 Piled high with turkey, ham, bacon, eggs, cheese, hard boiled eggs, orange slices, tomatoes, cucumbers, and red onions!. ALL THE GOOD STUFF ONLY $8‼"

"This radical pizza place has locations in Portland and Eugene, Oregon, as well as in Seattle!. With a whole case stacked high with pies, you can grab a slice of one of the vegan pies of the day or order a fresh whole pie to share (or eat entirely by yourself—no shame). Our vegan Broc You Like A Hurricane special: Follow Your Heart vegan cheese, Spinach, Buffalo Jackfruit and Green Onions."

"Welcome to spaghetti church, where pasta worshippers come to praise. Spindly wood chairs, lace curtains, and rustic ceiling beams bring a monastic brand of beauty, but the overall austerity signals that food is the focus here. Served with a beef ragù or a butter-sage sauce, *tajarin*‚ hand-cut egg pasta‚ gets star billing for good reason."

"Spinasse uses simple ingredients to create fine Italian dishes from the Piedmonte region of Northern Italy. Spinasse makes it a point to incorporate ingredients from artisans and farmers from the local region of Seattle and the Pacific Northwest. The Tajarin al ragu was vote #4 for Top Italian Foods in America by The Food Network."

"Inside Spinasse’s charmingly rustic dining room, you’ll feel like you’ve left Seattle for an Italian trattoria. The roasted beet salad with cherries, radishes and marinated La Tur cheese is tangy and refreshing, while the hand-cut egg pastas are..."

"A post shared by Barrio Capitol Hill (@barriocapitolhill) on Oct 26, 2019 at 4:33pm PDT. Barrio Mexican Kitchen in Seattle’s Capitol Hill neighborhood is a hip choice for a date night. Their wall of candles, Latino-inspired cocktails, and excellent happy hour will make heading here on Friday night a no-brainer."

"Barrio is a beautiful space that has a library meets industrial feel with open piping on the ceiling and floor-to-ceiling wooden bookshelves with candles in every opening."

"Nominally nautical décor like fishing nets hangs all over the walls, peppered with sayings about crawfish or alluding to its Louisiana roots and giving off an old-school seafood shack feel. Combining Vietnamese flavours and Louisiana-style crawfish boils may not seem like something worth seeking out in Seattle, but this spot brings seafood spirit inspired by all over into a truly special place, and is one of the few places serving the native local crawfish – bigger and cleaner-tasting than their Southern siblings. Ignore the menu of classic but ordinary New Orleans fare and focus on the customisable crawfish boils - which can include Dungeness, king, or snow crab, as well as clams and mussels."

"Weaving your way through the always-busy Pike Place Market to arrive at Market Grill may not be easy, but we promise it’s worth it to get your hands on their World Famous Blackened Salmon Sandwich. Picture this: a crispy, grilled baguette, slathered with just the right amount of rosemary-lemon mayo, layers of fresh tomato, caramelized onion, and lettuce topped with juicy, wild-caught salmon that’s been spiced and then blackened to perfection. There’s no denying that this spectacle of a sandwich is considered some of the best seafood in Seattle."

"Patrons rave about the fresh salmon sandwich offered at the Market Grill, and for good reason; the salmon is amazing, and handled so well. The seafood chowder is another claim to fame, and it’s true that customers clamor to this place for more. Compared to a ‘hole in the wall’, the Market Grill isn’t the most exclusive spot, but it is definitely one of the best, and makes our list with little effort."

"If this is your first time in Seattle (which we assume it is, since you’re reading this guide), you may be thinking that Pike Place Market seems like a sh*tshow. To your left, there’s a person who just shoved a sample of chocolate-infused pasta at you. To your right, an artisanal lotion-maker is yelling, “Hey, you never have to speak to me again if you just take a sniff of this hand cream!"

"Located at Fisherman’s Terminal, this place is a classic waterfront fish & chips bar with some of the best fried fish in town. Get your fish to go, grab a spot on the benches nearby and dig in. Tip: There’s free parking right next to the restaurant."

"The Slump at Chinook's. They make it with seasonal fruit...could be peach, huckleberry, rhubarb. IT'S SOOOOOOOO GOOD! Fresh fruit, hot biscuit topped with vanilla ice cream. YUM!" [Photo Credit]"
