Great location on NW corner of 59th Ave. & Beardsley/101. Convenient if you're coming southbound on 59th Ave. and need coffee before hopping on the 101 to get to work.
It's like all of the other chain locations of Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf. Same selection of beans, reasonable prices, and I like how they give you a complimentary cup of coffee & paper coffee filters with a purchase of beans.
Drip coffee is excellent, among the best as far as coffee chains go. They often have multiple coffees to choose from, both dark roast and lighter roast. Certainly better than Starbucks.
Barista prepared drinks aren't so good. Staff is mostly young kids who are polite as far as retail goes, but not so skilled as baristas. I've noticed a high frequency of overheated milk in the lattes (you can't miss this on the taste side of things).
There's always a few people here but I've never seen it crowded, except perhaps Friday and Saturday nights as the Sushi restaurant crowd spills over.
Located in a clean, safe area.
