Comments: Caffe Migliore is centrally located in downtown Seattle. It’s closed on the weekends, so that gives you a pretty good indication who their main clientele is – people working in downtown during normal business hours. Caffe Migliore is centrally located, which makes it a great place to meet up for coffee if you have other friends who work in downtown. It’s also a ideal to meet up, because although it’s a very small space, there always seems to be space to sit. That’s because most people take their drinks to go back to their offices.  So many times, especially in the morning, they’ll be a line out the door, but many seats available.

Caffe Magliore definitely gets lost in amongst the vast sea of Seattle coffee shops.  We rarely think about it unless meeting another downtown working friend for a coffee meet up.  They have outsourced pastries and their website states they have paninis for lunch from DeLaurenti in the Pike Place Market, although I’ve never had one here.

We didn’t know this, but they roast their own beans and I really do like their espresso, which I believe is an Italian Roast.

Not much else to report here. It’s a convenient downtown spot that is rarely packed that serves really good espresso with some food options.

Eavedropping  Convo:  Two gals having a coffee at the table. One of them hears a woman with an Australian accent ordering a latte and then yells to a man, “Do you want a watah(water)?” One of the gals at the table turns to the other and says, “Oooooh. She has a Australian accent. So hot!”
