Seattle Coffee

Starbucks  

So I have mixed feelings about Starbucks. So I will keep this all about the coffee and not about anything else.

What I like about Starbucks is the coffee. I like a strong cup of coffe and they deliver. I like their breakfast sandwiches, even though they are discontinuing them. I also like the committment to customer service they deliver.

I think the Starbucks experience is a good one. They've recently upgraded their Wi-Fi service. It's sort of free, but you have to use a registered card. No biggie.

 

Tully's

 
I like Tully's. Their coffee is good. I love the fact they offer free WiFi. Let's say you had a Tully's and a Starbucks right next door to eachother, I would choose Tully's every day of the week and twice on Tuesdays due to the fact they offer free WiFi.  
Seattle's Best Coffee  

A Starbucks subsidiary. Seattle Best Coffee is ok. When I'm not looking for a place to graba WiFi signal and there isn't a Starbucks around, I'll head for SBC.

I do like the fact they serve juices and other beverages from Naked. I think their juices and protein drink are excellent and taste better than Odwalla.

The don't have free Wi-Fi. Hell, they don't have Wi-Fi at all.

 
Cafe Ladro  

When given the choice between Starbucks and Ladro, I'll always go with Cafe Ladro. I like to support the smaller, independent coffee joints in Seattle. They provide free WiFi and the atmosphere is cozy.

Their coffees and teas are tasty and the people are friendly. (I'D LIKE TO SEND A SHOUT TO MY BUDDY KIMO!)

 
Cafe Zingaro  
The people there are really cool. The coffee is good and they have free Wi-Fi.  
Uptown Espresso  
I do enjoy going to Uptown Espresso. It is one of a few coffee shops in Lower Queen Anne that has free wi-fi for its customers. Their coffee is very good and I highly recommend Uptown Espresso. Plus the have free Wi-Fi.  
Cherry Street Coffee House  
The coffee is tasty. The food rocks! I am a huge fan of their BLT on the baguette. Plus the have free Wi-Fi.
