What People Are Saying About El Diablo

Featured Review

The Scene – Devils seem to have all the fun. Vivid murals adorn the walls of this colorful, cozy coffeehouse, while Latin beats undulate throughout the room. Sweethearts snuggle in the "love grotto" (a velvet couch hidden in the back corner). On a rainy day, bring a book and cuddle up with a cup of joe. – – The Food – In the morning, sip on a Latin latte (cafe con leche) or a batido (fresh fruit shake). Chocolate lovers should dive in to a Mexican mocha, fragrant with the cinnamon and almonds that flavor their chocolate. Come back for a nightcap. El Diablo offers…

What to Drink:
Kick-start your day with a Cortadita: two shots of sweetened espresso with a splash of milk.

best mexican hot chocolate ever!

by seattlespagirl at Citysearch

This place serves the best mexican hot chocolate ever! spicy, sweet, delish! Just moved to QA and frequent this place a lot. YUM! And the staff all seem really cool. I haven't tried their food yet though, but plan to soon!

  • Pros: hot chocolate, ambience
  • Cons: bathroom is kinda sketchy

Whoa! Yummy coffee, cool digs

by agentlorita at Citysearch

I happened on this place by accident then didn't know what to order and got to have the best tasting coffee I've experienced. So fresh and tasty and just plain unusual. After many good cups of joe in Seattle this was such a delight because of the reinterpretation of the standard, yeah it's good. But this was GREAT! I want to hang longer and play battleship and listen to live music. But I'm afraid unless there is dancing I'll be jumpin' and jiving from the enormous number of coffees I'll imbibe! Wowzer! You must try it!

  • Pros: parking, environment, next to a book store
  • Cons: sells beer?

Best Coffee Shop in Seattle (well, one of the best anyway...)

by shetharbozenai at Citysearch

The painting on the interior wall is what makes this cafe so unique, but the quality of coffee also makes this place worthwhile coming back every other day! The milk foam is always as creamy as whipped cream. The molasses flavored sweet espresso is so addictive... We just moved in the neighborhood, and I can't say that El Diablo was not one of the reasons we bought the house.

  • Pros: Espresso; street parking in front of the store available most of the time; friendly service

Best Coffeehouse in Seattle, I swear!

by snuggles1 at Citysearch

Until I moved to Queen Anne, I was convinced I found the perfect coffeehouse. I came to Diablo to study and I was hooked. It's a great place for desert, reading, chatting or listening to live music provided on the weekends. Definitely recommend the mexican hot chocolate.

I just love El D

by christabelfowler at Citysearch

I used to live right next door to El Diablo. The service is excellent, the coffee is dee-lish and the atmosphere is fabulous! I will be sad the day that all the UW/SPU kids find out about it and it turns into the next Zoka's.

  • Pros: Coffee, Mexican Hot Chocolate, Friendly Staff
  • Cons: none!
