Crown hill is an interesting neighborhood that intersects with greenwood and Ballard. Those neighbors have distinct identities and therefore are a bit easier to find expected cultural interactions. Turtle coffee provides a quiet and kind space that gives pause to most of the less approachable spaces within north Seattle. The barista was patient with her greeting and presented all of her establishments options with an efficient kindness. I don’t know if I’ll have many reasons to come to consider crown hill, but if I ever want to spend time at a coffee shop, and enjoy a place for coffee standards, atmosphere and comfort in a building. Turtle coffee will be the space for me. I’m glad I have a new home for all my coffee needs. The right place for someone to feel okay coming out of their shell
Nice relax spot to do work. Coffee is great and pastries are amazing. I would definitely come again for the scones.

Owner was lovely! She hand bakes these scones and they are AMAZING!! I could eat like 7 of these scones!I got the white mocha latte and it was the right amount of sweetness too. I was getting gas nearby and I saw it and thought of I'll grab coffee and a snack.So glad I stopped by! Plenty of parking as well and it's free!Parking: Right in front

Rude owner who often disrespects customers. We went in a group of 3 and one person didnt order anything. The owner came to the third person and said he can sit for free until he orders anything. He patiently explained his medical condition and how he cannot eat or drink what’s offered (mostly unhealthy). The owner said he should go to a place where there are things he could eat. It was sad and embarrassing as we were catching up as the person recently got discharged. Inhuman behavior by the owner, will never step foot again.Dietary restrictions: Not suitable for any dietary restrictions like gluten-free or keto or low carb

I came here twice with my son and was treated extremely rudely by the owner twice. Not family friendly despite the little table and chairs near the fireplace. Despite it being the closest coffee shop near me, I would never step foot in here again even if the drinks were free.
I was just in the area and came by for coffee. Very cute place with lovely service. I like that it's open and not cramped. Very clean!

Great selection of coffee drinks for all drinkers, and a solid Americano. Most impressive are the baked goods, like scones, that they make in-house. In my opinion the quality of those scones rivals some of the bigger bakeries in the city.

Their food menu is not so great. Sandwiches not so tasty. The place is good location. The owner is loud and rude. And not open to feedback. the other Coffee server is okay. Wouldn’t recommend to others.

Super friendly and fast service, and my latte was delicious. I highly recommend the scones - they are almost biscuit style and fluffier than I'm used to, but fresh baked in house and come in a variety of flavors. I had the peach style and it was great. Would have stayed longer to enjoy my coffee, but the sun beating through the window was unbearably hot.
Great food and amazing drinks.
