“ Monkey Grind is the kind of coffee shop that pulls a community together. It's a friendly place to meet your neighbors and get to know them better. The coffee and food is great, and the atmosphere is wonderful. Everyone who works here is friendly and human. The art installations have great variety and showcase amazing talent from around the city. I couldn't ask for more in the heart of my neighborhood. ”
“ Best Latte I have had in a long time. Barista is pleasant, relaxed, and good at his craft. The sandwich and cake were also really good, and I loved the outdoor table in the shade. I would definitely recommend, and if I was local I would return. Wonderful experience. ”
“ It was a lovely place close to our hotel that felt welcoming and cozy. The lady working there clearly was more than familiar with the various people who came in and the hot chocolate is delicious. The only complaint I have is my brother's bagel was a wee bit burnt. ”
“ Coffee @ Monkey Grind Greenwood never disappoints. What I love is the warm, attentive and welcoming customer service at Monkey Grind. The retro chic ambience is unpretentious and cozy like a living room. The pricing is affordable. I feel at ease here. I would love to buy their mug if available ”
“ Not a bad spot for working/great coffee. Love the atmosphere for working. Very hip style. Wish there was more outlets but can’t complain. In terms of the coffee, had the Mexican Mocha. Great change of pace and had a bit of a spice to it. Would recommend the 8oz as when I had 12 started to get a bit jittery. Either way, love the place and the staff seems lovely. Would recommend but just be aware it is a smaller space so it can be best when it isn’t as busy. ”
“ I love the taste of their espresso and their egg&spinach croissant is simply delicious. Very welcoming baristas, and cute decor. ”
“ Incredible espresso and food! Was nice that it had a couple gluten free options as well. Best americano I’ve had in Seattle so far! ”
