Fonté Coffee – 1st Avenue

We had a great time at this place! After a concert, we stopped for brunch with the kids. The food was delicious, and my Desert Rose coffee was a pleasant surprise. The atmosphere was lovely; we’d definitely come back. The only small issue was the cashier girl also serving, causing a slow line to order. But the staff was incredibly nice and caring, so it wasn’t a big deal. I wanted to take pictures of the food, but it disappeared too quickly!

I really enjoyed the Turkish latte I ordered here — it had the right amount of foam, sweetness ,and spices. My family members ordered other espresso coffee drinks (Rose Latte, Mocha Latte, Caramel Latte) and equally enjoyed them. The atmosphere inside is comfortable and relaxing, with a terraced floor plan that gives a certain cool vibe ambiance. It’s a great spot to sip some coffee and chat with friends.

One small complaint: The prices on the food were kind of pricey. For example, $12 for a chicken wrap that wasn’t that large. But otherwise, this cafe is excellent and I would highly recommend it. It’s located right near Seattle Art Museum and a few blocks from Benaroya Hall, making it a great stop before you go to other places. So the price is probably related to the convenience.

The Aztec mocha was very good! Had a hint of cayenne pepper. The breakfast burrito was very flavorful, and it was wrapped in puff pastry, which I think is cool and innovative. The cashier was very patient and friendly.

Hard working people working hard. Customers in the know – on the go – are here. Good coffee. Good cinnamon roll with a gooey, sticky,tasty bottom. The menu appears to be well crafted and the dishes coming out of the kitchen, wonderful. Cool, hip, with an underlying quiet excitement. Fun! Come here. Be of good cheer. Celebrate your life.

Descent place to stop before a concert at Benaroya Hall, if you are looking for good coffee and descent dishes.
This is a combination between a cafe and cafeteria.
Cleaning wise, tables should be wiped and cleaned, while people are seating and eating and for sure after each customer.
