In February, I came to do some work on a weekday before lunchtime. The cafe is busy, most tables were taken. I got the Seasonal Beverage Strawberry Mocha and a cinnamon roll, which were both alright. The baristas were very nice. I hear people ordering sandwiches closer to lunch time.I like the vibe of this cafe inside a bookstore, it's quieter than a regular cafe.

Line wasn't super long but slow. Ordered the golden hour latte (12oz), absolutely amazing ! Honestly one of the best lattes I've had.

This is a cute little café inside of the bookstore. My friend and I didn't want to wait at Oddfellows for brunch so we grabbed a small bite and coffee here instead. They heat it up our pastries, but it wasn't warm enough in my opinion. I would recommend coming early as the place does fill up quite quickly. The ambience is a bit loud so I would suggest bringing headphones if you want to work.

A lovely quiet cafe to stop by with a friend to catch up about life, or to sip on coffee as you study or read a newly purchased book from Elliot Bay (the bookstore housing the cafe). You're really just here to study and read in a productive setting more so than to eat the food and coffees.I thought the 8oz latte was pricey - it was good though. Took the chicken salad to-go. It was okay, tasted healthy.

3 stars for my second-favorite cafe inside my favorite store in Seattle? What sense does that make?!Perfect sense when you consider:- there's never anywhere to sit (not their fault)- the glacial speed of the wifi (definitely their fault) Even so, I try most weekends to snag a spot. Reading or working in this cozy space, herbal tea in hand, after browsing the shelves for treasures, is a teeny tiny paradise.The vibes are right, if you get lucky enough to grab a seat and don't need modern wifi speeds.

Super cute and quiet cafe in the back of a bookstore; the baristas were were nice and quick. I had an iced, oat milk, matcha latte and it was good - not my favorite matcha ever, but refreshing and a good flavor. Overall, go for the vibes, a quiet place to work or read, and enjoy the atmosphere.

Just went here and asked the "barista" short haired female a question and she has the attitude and asked very rudely "I'm sorry?" in a very snarky way. She could have asked in a different tone. Guess what, I'll take my business somewhere else where customer service is at least above par. Too bad from a visiting patron to have such a bad first experience. Good thing I haven't ordered yet that's why I was asking a question. Plenty of better cafes around with employees who know what customer service means.

Little Oddfellows is such a cute cafe tucked inside of Elliott Bay Book Co!! there's a decent amount of seating, and I had no problem getting a nice corner seat when I came on a Saturday night around 6:30pm. With that said I definitely think it gets a lot busier on a normal day!I ordered the 16oz seattle fog ($6.61) and I LOVED it!! there's something about tea and milk that is so yummy and comforting. I thought the flavor was great and i would definitely recommend getting this. I will say there's been one persisting issue -- their wifi has been down for months :( I last came to study here in february and was surprised it's still not fixed as it's april. the cashier told me it will be fixed sometime in june which is a pretty long process for a cafe that would otherwise be so ideal to study at. All in all, I absolutely love the aesthetic of the cafe and also the worker was friendly!! it's also so perfect that you can browse the bookstore while you're there. they also sold merch like tote bags which I thought was so cute!!

I'm conflicted. On one hand, having a full cafe inside of Elliot Bay Bookstore is a genius, almost necessary move. Unless you're here on an early weekday, it's usually packed and lively; god help you if you're trying to get a seat after classes get out. Feels like folks from all over the city flock here; it's fantastic for people-watching, to see and be seen. The baristas are friendly and quick with drinks, even when it's busy. The Seattle Fog is a tasty spin on its cousins from across the pond.However, the drinks are rather overpriced. The bathrooms are ran through, but that's understandable with all the bookstore traffic. The WiFi is pretty awful, and was completely down the last two times I was here. It's not perfect, but it's a cozy and comfortable spot to include in your regular routine. Save me Little Oddfellows, Little Oddfellows save me, etc.

the lighting was so terrible and painful. I don't know how anyone enjoys sitting in there. I genuinely feel bad for the people working there and cannot imagine how their brains handle that much stimulation. Not only are the lights HORRENDOUS, the music is WAYYYY too loud. please consider being more inclusive!
