“Great boba tea, and a good staff. I usually love boba tea, and when I saw one of these open near my house I couldn't resist trying it out! I got a Honey milk tea with black tea, 130% sweetness (I have a sweet tooth), less ice, and boba pearls. The inside is pretty nice, with good music and some tables. Be aware that if you come in at a busy time, the tables will probably be full. They have fried chicken too, which is AMAZING! I suggest coming in for Lunch, and getting boba tea and chicken! 9/10, great for a snack or lunch!“
“I've been trying boba places everywhere near me and this one was one of the good ones. I really enjoyed the strawberry smoothie it was so good. The employees were very friendly and I love the little smile on the lid.An excellent boba shop and also has good seating so great place to hang out as well! However one small thing was the boba tapioca balls kept getting clogged in my straw as they were too big! A minor issue they just need bigger straws! Will come here again as one of my go to boba spots.“
“I have been here almost every single morning since I’ve tried this coffee place! I am totally addicted. I’m going to be bringing everyone I know here, it truly is the best and everyone who works here is so genuinely kind and helpful ❤️ also incredibly quick, quality service for the volume of people they can have! I am so happy to have found this place, I get the iced Salty Coffee please do yourself a favor and go here!!!“
“This dine in location is fabulous, but you know who specifically is freakin fantastic? Kieran. She’s the bomb and got me hooked on their lavender goodness, the Moonlight Saphire. When I want to try something new and let her know what I like and maybe not so into, she has never done me wrong. Whether it’s this location or Kirkland, love her smile and recommendations. She is amazing at explaining what’s new and what she’s serving if you have the fortunate pleasure of having her showcase your drink upon delivery. Thank you!!!“
“Great spot to grab some yummy Mexican snacks! The mango was super fresh and delicious. Hot Cheetos and cheese....what else do you need? Maybe some heartburn but worth it! We also got the chicharron preparados but without the chicharron. My daughter doesn't like it. It was still delicious. It's nice to have something culturally different in Woodinville!“
“Bobae is one of my go-to spots, especially when the sun is out. It's a quick walk from the waterfront. While it can be busy, there are times when I get to have a chat with the baristas. Alexis is pretty chill. We often talk about music.“
“I finally had the opportunity to visit the Westlake Plantiful Superfoods and it did not disappoint. I was a regular customer at the Kirkland location but hadn't visited since I moved to Seattle in 2022. I was craving them so bad so I decided to give it a shot. All my favorites were just as amazing as I remembered them!! The Plantiful Toast puts ALL other avocado toasts to shame. It is incredible. My fav! My favorite burger is the Monterey Burger with an Impossible patty. Phenomenal. Highly recommend!!“
“Stepping into this family-run tea business felt like entering a haven of warmth. From the moment I crossed the threshold, I was enveloped in the comforting embrace of hospitality and tradition. The atmosphere was infused with a sense of heritage, as if each cup of tea held within it generations of knowledge and craftsmanship passed down through the family. The selection was diverse and carefully curated, showcasing a blend of classic favorites and unique flavors that tantalized the senses. But what truly set this business apart was the personal touch of the family members themselves, who greeted customers with genuine warmth and shared their wealth of tea wisdom with enthusiasm. Whether it was a recommendation tailored to my taste preferences or a story behind a particular blend, every interaction felt like a glimpse into the rich tapestry of tea culture. In a world dominated by mass-produced beverages, this family-run tea business stood as a beacon of authenticity and connection, inviting tea lovers to embark on a journey of discovery and delight with every sip. It was that good, I came back but this time, I was convinced to try a different flavor.“
“Tra Kirkland doesn’t just have a nice atmosphere but amazing drinks. Our children enjoyed the strawberry lemonade and blue lemonade. We even splurged on the cute robot cups. The lemonades weren’t too sweet, slightly tart and very refreshing. My husband enjoyed the viet coffee and I got the coconut viet coffee. The coffee was smooth, flavorful and cooling on a warm day. They have drinks that cater to every preference from coffee to teas. I would highly recommend this shop.“

“Honestly a great place. Their boba teas are fantastic. I absolutely love their peach milk tea. But on top of that they have good customer service AND really friendly. In addition to being super fast. I've had it delivered and I've also ordered in store it's great every time. Well done guys.!“
“Lock and load coffee! After a recent first time mercury visit, I'm first time hooked and now an official fanboy! I legit walked 25 mins with my suitcase before my flight to grab a Joe from here, it's that rad. The insanely yummy scent of bold espresso when you walk in is utterly phenomenal.This location is awesome and is open early to grab a cup of joe for the start of the morning grind! Mercury's also has a killer rewards system which is dope and saves you a bang for your buck! I managed to get a free 10 dollars worth of points, yummy organic coffee at no cost, what's more to love?Holy smoke too, checkout the hella size of that cinnamon roll, next level dough'pe!!! This branch also have a super delicious range of baked goodies to devour.Support local businesses!!“
“I really love this place. The staff are really nice and just the place itself is really nice. There is usually music and games that you can play while drinking your drink. Sometimes the drinks take a while to get because there are a lot of other people but it is worth it!“
“This place is fun! It's a really good spot for a catch-up time with your friends, or if you're like my roommate and I, just a place to go to "get out of the house." The last time we were there, we noticed that there were board games in the front and got really excited. So we pulled one out and started playing. It created such a good vibe all around. The drinks are really good, and the service was extremely friendly. Because of the board games, my roommate and I will probably be back to hang out there since we live so close.“
“Tropical Berry is an absolute gem! Not only do they serve unparalleled açaí bowls with the freshest organic açaí imported directly from Brazil, and their coxinha is irresistibly delicious! What truly sets this place apart, however, is their outstanding customer service. Every visit feels personal and warm, like I'm being welcomed into a friend's home. A must-visit for anyone craving an authentic and delectable Brazilian treat!“
“On a recent trip to Seattle with friends I was thrilled to find this little organic cafe where I could get my morning celery juice and custom smoothie. We had breakfast here every day and lunch one day too. All food was extremely fresh, organic and reasonably priced. The guys at the cafe were super friendly and accommodating. I will definitely be back and highly recommend.“
“My favorite bubble tea in Seattle! Amazing tea selection and not as sweet as most other places I've tried. Cute window seating and decor.Dietary restrictions: They offer alternative milk options (as well as adjustable sweetness and ice levels)“
“Finally! We sampled Lasa Sandwiches and Pearls—a Filipino culinary experience. Opting for a rice-free option, I tried the Longganisa with eggs and bread, beef lumpia, and Taho milk tea. Meanwhile, Luke opted for the adobo sandwich. I personally preferred the adobo over the Longganisa. It's a unique and worthwhile experience, especially if you haven't tried it before!“
“I have ordered jalebis for two event and both times they were hit! crisp and juicy… can’t wait for the store to open and try many more varieties. Other than food I would give a shout out to the customer service as well… they are amazing with customers!“
“Main reason I go here is for the waffles and the occasional drinks. Service is pretty fast on weekdays but can get really crowded towards the weekend. Going to this place during a weekend rush is kind of annoying, especially when other people are really loud and ordering A LOT of items.Workers here are pretty cool. If there is a problem with your order or drink, ask any of them about it and they will correct it fast.“
“I ordered the Thai Green Tea with boba. Overall the drink was good; a bit on the pricier end but it was of a decent size and hit the spot, so I can't complain. However, the employee working the register convinced me to not do 0% sugar but 50% because tea would be bitter otherwise. I should have listened to my gut instinct because even 50% was a bit too sweet for me. :(I still liked my drink though and would recommend both the cafe and the Thai Green Tea specifically. If in the area and craving boba, I'll definitely stop by again. Service was fast too.“
“We ordered Carillon Kitchen Thanksgiving dinner and it was fantastic! Loved everything and it traveled well for reheating. Great job! It was reasonably priced, plenty of leftovers and made our holiday special. Thank you! We plan to order next year! ?“
“Just wanted to share awesome positive vibe of this place. We only got a bottle of water there, but experience left me happy. My daughter was very thirsty while we were on a stroll around UW. We kept searching for it, but couldn’t find any. We ended up coming to a cafe which was closed a time. I went in, explained a situation and asked if I could buy a bottle and quickly leave as nothing else was open. Staff was very nice to us and allowed us to get one. It was very kind and made our evening with frustrated and thirsty toddler much nicer. Thank you and we will be back when you are open.“
“This place is so peaceful ? it's a spa like yoga studio. Yoga teachers and the staff pay so much attention to detail! Their personalized touch like remembering names or offering tea at the end of class - those little things really make it special and cozy.I particularly enjoy Sarah's classes: she encourages every one to follow the class at their own pace, and teaches you the benefits of using the props. I have been to multiple yoga studios, it's the first one that teaches me how to adjust all the yoga positions to fit what my body needs!Overall, very warm space that has elevated my yoga experience, makes me happy! YAY!“
“Been taking Henry’s Internal Cleanser on and off for years now. Great product to supplement fasting routines, etc. Three scoops and you REALLY feel it. I like to think of it as a tire clearing a culvert pipe chained to a tractor. YouTube a related video. You'll get an idea of what I mean. First order of business in the morning, out of three total scoops, I prefer mixing one scoop at a time with Cranberry Juice. Drinking it with water is intolerable. At least for me it is. Don't let it sit. Drink it immediately after mixing. Use one of those shakers. Drink lots of water after and don't be a couch potato. Walk around. When it comes time to relieve yourself, most likely the next day, there is LITTLE warning. Highly recommend.“
“I was brought here by a friend. Walking in, the aroma of fresh ground coffee was amazing. Great place to gather with a group of friends. It was cool to view the roasting of the coffee and the creating and baking of their fresh pastries. Quite the variety to choose from. Very tasty!“
“Came because a different cafe was unfortunately closed but also because the pictures were so enticing. Which we're SO GLAD we came because the drinks my husband & I ordered were delicious, addictive, with friendly & quick service from the staff. We definitely look forward to coming back to try other drinks from the menu.“
“This is one of my favorite dessert spots! All of their drinks and chè are amazing, and the pandan waffle is a dream. I like the red bean combo, taro lover, Bambu combo, Fruit addict. So many great options to choose from. I've ordered the pandan waffle at other locations, but they never compared to this location. Theirs is always big, crispy and chewy!Việt owned and operated! I miss Nhu, but everyone is kind and great.“
“Cute place to get your healthy drinks and snacks! So many great options to choose from, whether you want a smoothie or an açaí bowl. I got the Coffee Kickstart for myself and a dragon fruit bowl and an açaí mango bowl for the kids. They were all amazingly delicious Customer service was great and the owner even took time to greet and chat with the customers. I'm hooked and definitely coming back!“
“Great options for gluten free diet, including vegetarian options. Everything we got from here has always been delicious!Vegetarian options: The gluten free, vegetarian lasagna on their Deli is delicious! The deli menu may vary.Dietary restrictions: Great options for gluten free food.“
“I love this place! I order custom blend juice with strawberries, blueberries and mangoes, it was so fresh and smooth. I appreciate they don’t use plastic cups and when you bring back mason jar, you get discount off on your next order. Thank you so much Jay, you were very hospitable and we will definitely be back!“
“The poke here is delicious! The brown rice is cooked perfectly, the tuna is very tender and fresh, and the traditional sauce is ?? The portion sizes are also great for the price, and the gentleman at the front was very kind. Also, the tarot boba tea is ?. It’s hard to find good tarot tea too, so I will definitely be coming back ?✨ I also really like the style of the cafe, but I do wish it felt a little more cozy/less empty? ❤️ But don’t let that deter you from enjoying the food ☺️“
“I am White Zombie addict. I have tried a couple drinks here, but I come back for the White Zombie. I had a Blueberry Cream Cheese muffin this morning and it is divine. The staff here is always cheery and nice whether it is a hot summer day or a dark and rainy morning. Great neighborhood coffee stand.“
“Love this boba shop. The staff are sweet and accommodating- I like their drinks because I know I cannot make them at home so it’s worth it. I always get fruity drinks and I love the Hawaiian or Mango and Passionfruit green tea with kiwi and aijiyu jelly! Always fresh aswell which is amazing!!!“
“Absolutely YES!!! This place is delicious and the owner is so nice!! I was visiting the area for work with a colleague and we tried this place after dinner. I had the coconut and walnut ice cream with fruit and sweet cream on top. It was amazing!! I wish I could go back and get more. My colleague had the coconut and pineapple ice cream and he also loved it. Highly recommend!“
“I just got a coffee from here and ordered the Toffee Mocha per recommendation from the barrista. The drink is awesome, which makes sense given the people behind the drink. What a great way to start the say. Great coffee made by great people! I recommend pre-reading their menu or asking for a recommendation from their signature coffee list.“

“The venue offers a spacious seating area and ample parking. The service is polite, though it lacks warmth and enthusiasm. Initially, I aimed to be understanding, acknowledging that not everyone has their best day or needs to be at their peak performance at all times. However, I believe a simple smile and greeting can significantly enhance the experience. I've decided to modify my review to more accurately reflect my feelings. We normally visit the Bellevue location, and this was my first time choosing this particular venue. Based on my experience, I will most likely be returning to Bellevue in the future.Wheelchair accessibility: Easy to find and parking right in front of storefront.“
“I ordered the chia pudding berry parfait with peanut butter granola.-The server was friendly and helpful with suggestions.I received my food pretty quickly!I loved the combination of granola and chia pudding. However the granola tasted like puffed rice and not toasted oats. All in all, it was tasty!“

“This was my first visit to Emerald City Smoothie. I stopped by in the evening and had the large PB&J. The fruit to peanut butter ratio was perfect. It was suggested and made by the very helpful staffer Camilla. This location is inside the LA Fitness (or the old Larry's Market for all you old time locals). Great space, I'm glad it's open to anyone regardless of club membership. You should give them a sip!“
“My boyfriend and I just moved here and wanted to find our new açaí bowl / smoothie spot and emerald smoothie was the place to try. Walking in the lady working was super nice and patient with us looking at their large menu. We ordered a açaí bowl and smoothie and they were both very delicious!! Definitely recommend and will be coming back“
“this is my favorite coffee stand I have ever been to. the staff are awesome! especially Nikki she is always so welcoming and friendly. she always shows that she cares about her customers and making them feel like they are important to the stand. ++ the drinks are delicious“
Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt • $
“It’s not the heavy yogurt like Greek yogurt type but more on the light side. I loved the peach flavor and a huge piece of peach in it with mochi at the bottom. The only criticism is that I wish the yogurt could be heavier. But overall I would recommend this place and go back and try other flavors.“
“As first time consumer it was really tasty and wonderfully good to boot I recommend this place if you want get healthier I recommend this place and the food hereParking: Parking was on the street it’s normally Paid parking but since I wasn’t going to be there long. There others who did the same as I who didn’t want to pay for just few mins to go in order then head out.“
“I love Nekter! I've been a few times now and always have a wonderful experience. The staff is always cheerful and helpful and seem knowledgeable about what they are serving. The juices are really high quality and all have wonderful ingredients and no additives. My favorite thing I've gotten is definitely the PB&J bowl- the chia raspberry pudding was just a cherry on top of some of the best acai! This is definitely my new go to spot for breakfast bowls. The area is modern and inviting for anyone who wants to enjoy their treats in person, but I generally take mine to go. Wonderful spot if you need something healthy and quick!“
“Absolutely recommend this place for dessert! Refreshing range of menu items featuring fresh fruit… Especially mangoes! Tried several menu items and everything was a delight. The mango mochi was a hit! My kids enjoyed the bubble waffles. Also ordered a mango coconut dessert to-go And while it was delicious, I expected it to be a bit bigger as the dine-in servings seem slightly larger. Nevertheless, would visit again and probably dine-in to get a full experience. Service is kind and friendly and the overall atmosphere busy and cheerful, especially on the weekend!“
“First off, this smoothie place is inside lifetime fitness. It is just around the corner to the left once you come in (near the swimming pool). It's not marked outside that I could see.The lady who helped us was so nice and friendly. She let us customize our smoothies and gave great recommendations. I would highly recommend visiting Nrgize. They have a wide selection of healthy smoothies, some that are just fruit based, some that are geared towards working out and some that are full of veggies. In addition they have a few "treat" smoothies and coffee based smoothies.“
“We needed a little mid afternoon caffeine kick on our drive out of Seattle so we decided on this spot because it's near the freeway and they have online ordering. Selection - they have a very basic selection of boba teas and options. I'm lactose intolerant and decided to get their lemon black tea with boba and grass jelly. Service was friendly and they had our drinks ready upon arrival. The space of the cafe is really cute and clean which I appreciate it! Boba - I got my lemon black tea at 50% sugar and it was just right. Not overly sweet and very refreshing. My only downside was that I kept getting lemon seeds in my mouth, but at least they used fresh lemon. The boba was decent, not the best or worst I've had. The grass jelly though was just ok....the texture was a little weird from the usual.“
“This place is my go-to for fresh fruit smoothies. It's a grab-and-go type of shop, easily accessible with ample, free parking outside and a bus stop steps away. I've probably never been inside more than five consecutive minutes, nor seen a line more than two people long.The operator, Zach, is friendly, fast, and pressure-free-patient as you choose a regular or large size from the display of 40 recipes. He's also a certified nutritionist (a plaque on the wall says so).You might think from the intense flavors that the smoothies here are loaded with added sugars, but--surprise--that sweetness is completely natural! (I've tried replicating the quality myself, and can vouch for the wonders of banana and citrus.)As a quick source for a healthy indulgence whether I'm too busy for a full meal, feeling under the weather, or wrapping up a workout, Emerald City Smoothie holds a special spot on Aurora Ave and in my heart.“
“Great smoothies. Nice variety between veggie smoothies and fruit smoothies. They also sell other products such as protein powder, bars etc. The staff there is always very nice. We can also by a large one and have it split into two cups for kids.“
“The store provides a convenient grab-and-go service along with serene background music and has room for up to 15 people to sit. Lots of open space to wait for your order. I tried original bubble waffles and avocado smoothies and the puff cream for the waffles. We really liked the puff cream and smoothies are okay.The puff cream is worthy try.“
