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

This is a must-not-miss location for monthly art walk with it's friendly, knowledgable baristas and it's always interesting gallery shows. There is music, there is art, there is the 'cool kids' and more. I always feel right at home here, no snooty attitudes, warm and inviting atmosphere and yummy drinks and nosh.

Pros: Great Coffee, Attentive Staff, Warm Atmosphere

very cool place - very comfortable spot, outstanding espresso drinks (Illy) and excellent music - the morning I was there, the barista was playing Interpol. highly recommend getting there at 7am and bring something good to read, buy a delicious pastry and at least two cappucinos. settle in to savor the time you have to hide from the world in this cozy cafe.

Pros: great espresso, talented barista, beautiful cafe

...In Seattle. Great donuts, excellent atmosphere, cozy, hip, cool, quality clientele, locations are amaing. They really do it right. Period. For a good place to read the paper, get some great coffee adn pastries, you cant go wrong. This is a what a coffee place should be like! And for $2.25 knock yourself out w/ a large drip coffee and one of their excellent donuts. Can't go wrong....

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.
