Five Stones Coffee Company

Who keeps rating 5 stars?! I used to love coming here with friends back when I was in college but now, it has an entirely different vibe and ambiance. On weekends, it seems to be run by a group of high school teens who seem to be fond of chatting in the back instead of working. All my high school friends who I connect with when I'm back home say the same thing about this place. And it seems other yelp reviewers have noticed this as well... anyways, I came in and ordered, waited at the bar for around 10 min (no other customers in front or behind me in line) before someone finally came out from the back and asked if I got my drink yet? Like no, I'm standing here staring at you -- learn to read the room! It's just so unfortunate because I love the mocha baccio and this used to be my favorite coffee spot in Redmond. I don't think I come off as unfriendly either and I always tip whatever the automatic setting is...The older crew seems to work on the weekdays (mornings I think), are far more efficient and friendlier so I would recommend coming in then! Or try the bellevue location -- I've had great experiences there!

Tried this place for the first time as I had time to kill before an appointment nearby. I'm big on chai latte and can be picky so when I saw the great reviews here for their chai latte, I had to try for myself. It's actually very good. I got the spicy chai latte with oatmilk and it's very tasty and the spice isn't overwhelming. I don't eat a lot of spicy food, but this I can handle. It has just the right amount of kick to get you started in your morning. Highly recommend it if you are looking to enjoy a good chai latte.

I don't think there's a better coffee place than 5 Stones in the Redmond area. Their Hazelnut Mocha and Hazelnut Latte both are delicious. This is the first time I tried Kouign-amann. I enjoyed every morsel of it - definitely an amazing pastry. My only regret is that they couldn't warm it up given the closing time. I believe it might be a seasonal thing and it may not always be available. The place has a good sitting area and I always see people coming here and working.Good environment to work. After all what's better than slurping the best coffee in town and working.

I came here twice I've gotten good service twice when I came here. The coffee is really good & so is the food I went on a Saturday it wasn't that busy as I thought. The person that took my order was. Amazing & loved his customer service. I will be coming back

My favorite coffee shop in Redmond! There's a wide selection of drinks, pastries and options to buy beans if you'd like to make your own beverages. Some of my favorite drinks include the white chocolate mocha, lavender latte and harvest latte (their take on the pumpkin spice latte)This would be a cute place to get work done, but seating is pretty limited and it's pretty bustling from the moment they open.Located by the transit center, this is the perfect place to stop and grab a drink before your commute. It's on the pricier side, but not terribly egregious by today's standards. Highly recommend!

Tried out this coffee house early morning on a Saturday and came back again the next morning. It is convenient to have a decent café around Downtown Redmond to open at 7 AM compared to 8 AM like most other ones.I liked both the signature and seasonal drinks that I tried. - Cafe Stefano ($6.15 for 12oz)- Brown Sugar Lemon Latte ($6.15 for 12oz)Pastries were rather standard, but good enough to pair with the drink. Select pastries can be toasted to warm up.- Nutella Cruffin ($5)- Raspberry Cruffin ($5)- Raspberry Streusel Danish ($5.50)The shop is near the Redmond Transit Center and is a relaxing place to spend the beginning of the day. Guest Wi-Fi is available.

If you love dogs, coffee, and pastries then you need to come here for breakfast. Especially on a sunny summer Saturday morning. So many friendly dogs and the coffee and food was good too. Highly recommend the sticky bun (maybe with a not too sweet coffee). It was quite busy so expect to wait in line, but it's worth it. Would come again next time we visit Redmond

I am a huge fan of local coffee shops and I am glad I stop by to try it. Got the mocha bacio with oatmilk which was so smooth and velvety. I am definitely coming back to try other items.

Ugh, this was so bad and I'm so disappointed. I ordered a 12oz iced matcha latte with hazelnut syrup and almond milk. The matcha was super grainy (you could see specks of matcha, so it wasn't whisked properly). I couldn't taste any of the hazelnut. And the milk overpowered the entire drink - it tasted like the shelf stable almond milk that comes in the non-refridgerated containers, super artificial and tasted like preservatives. Not sure what they used but it was just awful!! They also made the drink too hot, so when they poured it over ice, it melted within 5 mins and completely diluted the drink. I hate wasting food but I had to throw out a quarter of the drink because I just couldn't finish it. My friend ordered a decaf latte and she said it was just fine, nothing special, but not bad at all. I ordered close to closing time and also forgot to ask for almond milk until after I paid...I'm not sure if that would have affected the quality of my drink, because I did ask the barista to ring me up again, but she said it was fine. I hate leaving such negative reviews but I just had a really poor experience. If you go here, don't get the matcha, try the coffee instead.

The coffee is delicious and velvety smooth and the breakfast sandwich was very good! I had the mocha bacio, one regular latte for my husband, and a breakfast sandwich of eggs, cheese, avocado, and a slice of heirloom tomato! The sandwich was a handful and fresh, no tomato butts or weird egg substitutes, and the mocha bacio was perfect! Definitely coming back to try the matcha!
