Cheerful two-tone drawings on the walls and blue tile on the counter both evoke the nearby waves that lap at Alki Beach in this multi-roaster cafe, demonstrating its effort to embody the spirit of the neighborhood. Between brewing coffee from a rotation of local favorites including Boon Boona, Dorothea, and Camber, and serving pastries from Seawolf Bakers, this spot brings together some of the city's best. The view from the dark wood tables in the loft make it a great place to watch the rhythm of life in North Admiral.

Consistently good coffee by a local small batch roaster is the highlight at this High Point café. The white walls ringed at the top by a shelf of plants give it a lush, green feeling, and the expanse of tall windows lets in natural light. The bright, colorful space and tiled counter welcome guests coming for breakfast sandwiches and pastries or for hot sandwiches on sourdough bread. The full food menu is available from 8 am--2 pm. Beverages include standard espresso and drip coffee choices, and they also have house-made syrups.
