My favorite espresso

by back933

This is a great neighborhood shop. I wish it was in my neighborhood. I go out of my way to buy espresso for my home machine and always have a shot pulled by one of the talented baristas here.

• Pros: Superb craft roasted coffees.
• Cons: Too far from my home.

The smoothest latte in Seattle!

by koolyg

I've tried lattes from dozens of coffee shops around Seattle, but keep coming back to Lighthouse. The shots are perfectly pulled with no bitterness and have a wonderful taste and aroma. But what really sets their lattes above the rest, is the use of top quality milk and expert steaming. The end result is creamy, smooth and utterly delicious. I crave Lighthouse lattes every morning, knowing that first sip will be heaven.

The shop itself is comfortable and unpretentious, while the staff are friendly and courteous. Highly recommended!

• Pros: Wonderful coffee, friendly staff
• Cons: Limited parking, can be crowded during peak times

Worth waiting for this decadent brew!

by costarobin

This is very good coffee and well worth the trip, worth the frustration of finding a place to park, and worth the long lines. The coffee is rich and smooth, and simply like sipping heaven.

I now live in Florida but whenever I'm in Seattle (not enough!) I go for this joe. Thankfully I have wonderful friends and family that send me beans. The coffee shop gladly ships beans, also.

• Pros: Fantastic coffee, Supurb espresso, Luscious latte
• Cons: Lines on weekends, Not in Florida
