What People Are Saying About Zeitgelst Kunst & Kaffee
The Editor

In Short – Exposed brick yields to saffron-stained wood shelving and a wall of glass. Put simply, this is a city coffee shop. Regulars from neighboring businesses stop in for shots to keep them going, while artists and writers cozy up to the scattered bistro tables outside. The baristas take their jobs seriously, as befits deep, smooth illy, the house brand of espresso. The cafe also serves a variety of pastries and grilled sandwiches at lunch.
THE BEST COFFEESHOP IN THE U.S.!
by abeal7572
An excellent coffeeshop in one of the most eclectic areas of downtown. A MUST to visit! this is hands down the best coffeeshop I have ever been to; better than any in all of Seattle, Portland, Las Vegas, or my current home of Phoenix. We will be stopping in when we visit Seattle later in the summer.
- Pros: Ambience, coffee and food all top notch.
- Cons: Since it is downtown, it may be inconvenient for those in suburbia.
Beautiful coffeeshop
by rosemarytran
Zeitgeist is bar none the most beautiful, and inexpensive coffeehouse in downtown Seattle. There is great ambience, attractive baristas, interesting art shows, and delicious coffee. I would recommend Zeitgeist to any tourist coming through Pionner Square, or any local living in downtown Seattle ore the I.D.
- Pros: Service, coffee, sandwiches, art, ambience
- Cons: None

Brian- This is a former groopie. You gave me some early lessons about coffee and roast profiles. My son and I own Metropolis Coffee Co in Chicago. I now know how much effort goes into maintaining quality after 2 and 1/2 years of roasting with running a a coffeehouse . Your place is great! You deserve all the success that you get.
The owner and staff are knowledgable and friendly; the feeling is wonderful, very much like my favorite places in Italy, France and yes, there's a Zeitgeist-looking place in Lima,Peru too. Hope to get back to Seattle soon and say hello, and enjoy a good cup.
- Pros: great coffee, espresso, soups
The Details on Zeitgelst Kunst & Kaffee
When to Go:
Make it a stop on Pioneer Square's First Thursday's ArtWalks--ideally timing the espresso for right in the middle of the evening.
