Ballard Coffee Co

Decided to try this place out before my appointment today & was not disappointed. Staff is super friendly! Dakota* took care of me at the register and made a fantastic vanilla lavender latte. I also had the breakfast biscuit which was a cheddar & chive biscuit and I got spicy aioli on it, super tasty. Lastly I had the raspberry scone that was also yummy. As for the place itself, not a whole lot of seating, there is a deck with a few chairs and a few chairs out front. I got my stuff to go. But Will definitely be coming back here again.

Was visiting my son in Ballard and he suggested this place for their cinnamon rolls. I got one of those, which was good but I also had the classic turkey sandwich on sourdough and that was terrific. Loved that the turkey was fresh off the bone. I ordered online and drove over to pick it up. It was ready on time and service was good and friendly. Will definitely go back next time I'm in town.

I tend to favor the biscuit creations from the Morsel (UDistrict) and Seattle Biscuit Company (Fremont). And yes, I've tried biscuits from Biscuit Bitch, Honest Biscuits, and the former Biscuit & Bean. Taste is always subjective and whether one is a die hard buttermilk or baking powder biscuit, plain, sweet or savory. So when I heard Biscuit & Bean was closing this Ballard site and retaining their site up north in Lake Stevens, driving often on 15th Ave W, I was curious what would take its place. Eventually I saw some renovations going on and then some activity onsite last month. I had the opportunity to stop by on 8/17/22, snagged a parking spot in their convenient parking lot shared with NoLita. No interior seating, but a few outdoor spots on their tiny deck and some picnic tables out front. There's also the convenient drive-through as an option. Warm, friendly greeting at the counter. I ordered the Ballard Breakfast Sandwich - basically egg, cheese, and bacon in a sliced toasted biscuit. I was offered to add some spicy sauce too, great! However, when I unwrapped the sandwich later at home - zero non-existent sauce. Thankfully, I wasn't charged extra for the missing condiment. Base charge is $11, but with tax/tip it was just under $15. A bit on the pricey side for convenience. The biscuit itself was nicely toasted, the crumb was moist, tender, almost reminiscent of a freshly baked scone. Egg was folded omelette style, not yolky. Cheddar cheese was melty. Bacon was tasty, but wasn't thick cut or peppery. I saved one half of the biscuit for later...and it reheated nicely with added butter and jam at home. The biscuit was decent, but for the price it would be better if was presented as a classic Eggs Benedict. Loved the updated interior, breakfast/lunch and coffee menu, one can eat onsite or to go via drive through or pickup/takeout from the counter. Fresh, made to order. Friendly service and glad Ballard Coffee was able to use this convenient spot with parking along this busy thoroughfare.

Many things to like about Ballard Coffee Co! First, those cinnamon rolls: they're the soft, sweet, yeast dough type with yummy icing. None of those dry, biscuit-like ones here. And they're on the menu daily. Second, their savory menu looks great with homemade sandwiches, etc. Third, friendly service. Fourth, and by no means the least important, they have a PARKING LOT in the back and also a drive-thru window! I hate annoying parking issues and 15th Ave has plenty of them, so this was welcome with open arms.

I got one of their biscuit breakfast sandwiches. I was thinking "Wow, $11 is a little steep for a breakfast biscuit, but that damn thing was one of the best sandwiches I've eaten in a long time. Coffee was excellent as well.

The food is delicious. I had the Ballard breakfast sandwich with avocado and spicy aioli sauce. The biscuit with this sandwich had chives on it which was amazing.. served hot and fresh. The americano was perfect as well. Great flavor. The only reason I'm giving this a 4 star was due to the fact that 2 of of 3 items on my order was wrong. This place wasn't busy at the time so I'm not sure why they messed up. I asked for no bacon... there was a ton of bacon on my sandwich. I asked for cream and sugar and my coffee was black. Since we were in the drive thru I was able to get them to add it and I just removed the bacon myself. No biggie, but seems like a pretty easy thing to get right. We didn't have a big order and it wasn't busy...

Friendly staff, clean atmosphere, they were able to make me a vanilla lavenderLatte and it was perfect. The breakfast sandwich was amazing- simple but one of the best I've ever had

Good service - good food .Had 8 biscuits- several atyles for all o brought it for.Very good.

First time visiting here. Vegan options are limited, but the coffee and biscuit were fantastic. Didn't get a pic because we ate so fast. Our toddler was hyped for the biscuit. If I hadn't looked this up, I'm not sure I'd ever have gone. The building is very understated with some patio seating and not much inside but some benches. Next time I'll have to try the drive through which I was surprised this type of place had. All the staff were very friendly, and I could see us coming here quite often.

The biscuits here are DIVINE! Perfectly crispy on the outside and warm and soft on the inside. A great selection of jams / butters to spread onto it. Pair it with an oat milk latte and you'll be in heaven. Love this place!
