Espresso Vivace

most delicious espresso the city has to offer…hands down!

The best coffee ever.

All other coffee shops have been ruined for me after coming here—easily the best cappuccino I’ve ever had.

Great coffee, but there was a long line and I didn’t know what I wanted. I needed a second to think: cappucino…or soy latte… but the barista actually yelled at me to make up my mind. That made my experience a little less pleasant, but I’ll go back maybe when it’s not so busy.

Best coffee outside of Italy.

I go here to socialize, chat, and casually draw. Both Vivace locations are great for that. However, this place is in no way condusive to any type of work (creative work, accounting work, programming work, construction work.)

This isn’t a bad thing. Vita is a better place to get down to business; Vivace is a chatty lovely place with comfortable seating. It is a ying/yang thing of complimenting each other and it makes for a more complete neighborhood. (um…i heart capitol hill)

I discovered this shop a few weeks ago while going to the Seattle International Film Festival, and it is hands down the best coffee I’ve ever had. Get a cappachino. The flavor of the coffee is so good. Perfection!

The wait wasn’t long and the atmosphere was just right. And the coffee was pretty damned spectacular. The frilly foam decorating is enjoyable enough but then again I wasn’t there to consume design (that said, I know some people who would consider that the height of their existence).

Back when I was a young coffee drinker, I would stop there every morning on my way to work.

A lot of my friends didn’t even know it existed until I invited them to go, but now, that’s our “go-to” place for espresso and tea. Their spiced cider is absolutely amazing!

I also like the atmosphere – not too loud, not too quiet. It’s all pretty laid-back. I love Vivace!
