Cedar River Espresso

Fun little espresso stand that is easy to miss if you don't know it's there. Highly recommend it if you are in the area or passing by and you want coffee or snacks, maybe a nice ice cold refreshing beverage, whatever your desires need.Staff are friendly and the prices are good and fair. Easy in and easy out for this place as it's right on the main road.

I pass this place all the time but I've ignored it until today. I stopped by to give it a try and was pleasantly surprised to find Italian espresso that is on par with my favorite coffee places - French Bakery in downtown Bellevue and Storyville. Rich flavor that tastes delicious!I also got a chocolate chip cookie which comes in a bag - usually a bad thing in my opinion - and was pleasantly surprised to find that these cookies are made by Seattle Favorite. If you aren't familiar these cookies aren't too soft and aren't hard, nor are they overly sweet. It's like the Goldilocks cookie that's just right. While not as good as the amazing fresh baked goods at Storyville, I did like them better than French Bakery's cookies. This place is worth a try and I'll definitely be back when I'm in the mood for some delicious premium Italian coffee!

Cute little drive up and on the other side walk up coffee shop. They had a fairly large menu with a lot of different coffees, teas, Italian sodas, etc. I got the 16 oz iced white chocolate mocha with half and half. It tasted pretty strong and slightly bitter. This would be great in the morning before work instead of after. Not sure if I'm going to get any sleep. Might have to pop some melatonin. I also got a white chocolate macadamia nut cookie. They didn't have any out, but gave me a frozen one, which was just fine because it is hot as hell outside. I also ordered a raspberry Italian cream soda for my daughter. Which is one of my favorite drinks to get anywhere I go. It was tasty and she enjoyed it as well. Overall super cute spot for that caffeine fix.

I was invited and showed up right after graveyard shift 5AM, so this invite was super convenient.This is a cute little coffee hut drive-thru only although I do think they have a small two-seater area in front of the coffee shop allowing you to also walk up and order. Offering coffee bagels cookies and other light snacks. I ordered a short white chocolate mocha I was going to go with the white chocolate Americano but Ellie the barista explain to me the difference and her personal taste so I went with the white chocolate mocha and it was a great choice.I've gotten a little spoiled by these smaller independent coffee shops over Starbucks and the one thing that I noticed is you actually still taste the coffee. The White chocolate mocha was a blend of espresso steamed milk and white chocolate white I could still taste along with coffee, also ordered a Canadian bacon cheddar chive bagel, I believe the company this expresso shop uses is blazing bagels. I had to get a muffin top because not many places sell muffin tops anymore so I was excited to see muffin tops!!This location is convenient sharing the parking lot with a gas station so you can gas up drive-thru get coffee and be the first to go as early as 5:00 in the morning!!!

My whole family used to go here, and only here, for our wake up juice. Morning barista couldn't be on time at all. Thankfully there is competition. They, at least, act as though they want our business.

Wonderful service and super quick. I ordered a white chocolate mocha and it tasted great! No complaints here, also I had a snickerdoodle cookie which was perfect. Good spot to get gas and a coffee to go.

Went here to check out their mochas and im in LOVE! (: as a sweet tooth but still like my sugar toned down this was perfect! While I feel Caffe D'Arte coffees are OK the baristas here did a great job balancing it out and are very friendly. Going to be a go to when my shifts end up in Renton! It was a great way to start my work

I got a an iced vanilla coffee. Honestly it was really delicious for such a simple drink. Really refreshing, with full flavor of the espresso that I was looking for, without that burnt being flavor.It's a really good price, and whoever was working on Sunday was super cool. She was really easy to talk to you and really fast.

Stopped by the coffee stand and was greeted with the best customer service! I got a white chocolate americano which was great, especially with how picky I am about coffee the espresso was great! And I got a English muffin breakfast sandwich which I wasn't a fan of it was just to dry for me! But overall the coffee and service made the visit worth it!

Great staff and quick service. I ordered an iced mocha and m&m cookie. Both were delicious and easy to order from your car or walk up. The barista was fast and kind. She was balancing the drive up window and the walk up window like a champ. If I lived closer, I would stop here for my morning joe on the way into work. If you want a quick coffee before a hike or ice skating, this is your place. I want try one of their summer drinks because they sounded so refreshing!
