The Grind

We decided that we would live up to the name of our blog and give you all a taste of something most Seattelites take very seriously: coffee. This is the first of hopefully many reviews of our favorite coffee refueling pits stops in Seattle!

First, we must make the disclaimer that not all coffee shops in Seattle are the same...

Yes, Dr. Evil is the CEO, but the real issue is that the coffee leaves an aftertaste similiar to that of charred bath water (thumbs down). To their credit, the Starbucks in our lovely Wedgewood neighborhood has a really charming dual-sided indoor/outdoor fireplace that offers locals some extra comfort during the rainy season.



Notice all of the customers...

THE GRIND

Each establishment will receive a rating in three different categories, 0-5 shots of espresso in each category:

A) THE DRINKS - taset, presentation, etc
B) THE BUZZ - vibe, ambiance, etc
C) THE AFTERTASTE - our chance to summarize our general impressions of whats good and whats less than good

Chrissy rates, Jake rates.

With this easy guide just a key-click away, you will be a bit more informed while navigating the extensive java network in Seattle. We hope you enjoy reading as much as we will "researching"! Stay tuned...
