Story Coffee & Tea

Went here earlier today with my partner for the first time to do some work. I tried their hojicha chocolate drink with foam and asked for it iced. The barista told me they hadn't made it iced before so they warned me it might taste imbalanced/not as good. However, the drink was SOOO delicious!!! I was surprised at how much I enjoyed the drink. Definitely will go back for it, although it was a bit pricey with the foam. We also got two desserts and felt they were okay and pricey, but the service, atmosphere and drink were excellent. I also loved how they were offering free pride stickers! Keep in mind that the wifi was unstable and had difficulties remaining connected.

Stopped by for an iced oat milk mocha. When I stepped up to the counter I said "hi, how are you," and the barista asked me for my order. Which I thought was kind of strange. I feel like smaller coffee shops are usually friendly and this barista was giving disgruntled Starbucks employee.My drink ended up being just under ten dollars, but tasted mostly like watered down milk. The mocha was stuck to the bottom of the cup and even after stirring the flavour wasn't even in the drink with some sips being too sweet and others being almost slimy in texture. I also had to wait almost twenty minutes for my drink to come out so definitely don't pick this place for coffee if you're in a rush.On the plus side, the quiet and organized atmosphere makes this place perfect for getting work done. There were multiple people on laptops and lots of space to sit and work. While I was waiting for my drink, I was able to get at least two things checked off my to-do list which is always a win.

Really cute coffee shop in Downtown Bellevue with plenty of seating. They provide 3 hour validated parking. The shop is adorned with plants, books and products from local artists. They have an amazing selection of speciality coffee and pastries. I got the lavender mousse cake and black rose latte. Both were beautiful and delicious.

Cute coffee set up in downtown Bellevue, Story Coffee hits my right spot. Love the vibe of coffee and plants, never goes wrong. This one is in place of Honor Coffee, I came here few years ago, Story is a new one in the same location as Honor shut the doors. We got their signature drinks- Black Sesame Rose Latte and my friend got the Honey Toffee Latte. Both tasted so nice, there were rose petals and toffees in both our respective drinks. Other options like non caffeine drinks are available too, food options like usual bakery items were available as well. Baristas were so friendly and nice! Parking is validated if you park in the Allen parking spot, there are two so get the right one to avoid fees!

The name says it all Coffee and Tea with some pastry options. I had a very well made chai latte. Ordered a couple of pastries. They were also very good. Surprisingly not too sweet which I liked a lot. Service was quick and friendly. The shop was smaller than it look from the website pics. The pastries were deceiving. It looked like it was covered with fondant or hard shell. But it was sold and smooth. Very "instagram" worthy. lol. The ambiance was cute. It's great place to stop for snacks and coffee with friends.

Settled here for the afternoon. BY GOD! The pastries are sourced from four different bakeries, but this place chooses the right ones! I suggest the mango passion fruit salted caramel cake. It is to die for! Their coffees are hand crafted and to perfection with seasonal flavors. The service is remarkable and very professional! There is a ton of space to relax and work or relax and fall asleep. There is free Wi-Fi! Making this my go to in Bellevue!

PARKING TIP: GPS it to "Alley 111 Parking Garage'. The cafe validates 3 hours of parking & the cafe is right outside the garage Decent amount of seating but the wifi was spotty. By 2-3pm it was pretty busy/full on a Saturday afternoon. For 3 items it was $28 which is pretty pricy! All items we ordered were tasty though!

I'm taking a moment out of my day and shout out KAI and the other beautiful Asian-descendant gal (in a purple sweater) who works at Story Coffee. I walked in and ordered a black sesame latte. It's my first time here. The gal who took my order was so kind and patient. I couldn't make up my mind. One of those days. She answered all my questions and I even learned a new thing. I just appreciate excellent customer service. I had to re park cause I drove into the wrong garage. It happens. The signs are misleading of where exactly to park. The male over the intercom was not very nice and abrupt the call. I walked back in and Kai knew I did not have a pleasant experience. The male should have waived the parking fee. I understand each garage has their own rules but being kind goes a long way. Kai went ahead and made me another latte as my previous was cold. It was the sweetest gesture and totally made my day. I will be back, not only for the excellent coffee, but for this above and beyond service. A hidden gem in Bellevue. Glad I chose this spot on a Friday afternoon. Thank you Story Coffee!!!

Cute cafe with plenty of seating and good Wi-Fi in 3 hours validated parking.Our favorite drink was the Black sesame cold foam top and we really like the spinach cheese brioche bun.Great place to get some work done or hang out with friends. The drinks are a little on the pricey side but they were great

Good coffee with quick and friendly service. I have had the honeycomb toffee latte, black sesame latte, banana walnut bread, and the ginger molasses cookie. The cookie was my fav, and the slice of banana nut bread was definitely very filling. I love that this café is currently selling mini cakes from @from_v_with_love_cakes. If you've ever had her cakes, they are so yummy! The café itself is very spacious with lots of room to work/study, and I love that they validate for 3 hours. I will definitely try to come back because they seem to always have lots of tasty seasonal drinks.
