"I definitely like the idea of having equality with it now," Brandon Peters, one of the stand's Dreamboyz, told the station. Male and female customers alike told KIRO 7 that the baristas were “hunky,” “just adorable,” and “very good-looking young men,” and that it was nice to see men stripping down for a change. Twenty-five miles north, in Everett, Washington, city officials have waged war on bikini baristas, leading to a bitter legal battle so acrimonious that one stand put up a sign accusing the city of being "more worried about bikinis than drugs and our homeless crisis." In Seattle, though, shirtless male baristas with washboard abs and bulging biceps are getting a friendly reception. And they've learned the trick to serving an Americano without being too cool or too scalding.Ja’shaun is waiting for ya! Come show them some luv! 324 Broadway E, Seattle, WA 98102!Ī post shared by dreamboyzespresso on at 10:09am PDT So how's it taste? Wonderful! The coffee taste is clean and bright, with that almost chewy texture that everyone who loves their espresso knows what I'm talking about. To top it off they don't try to charge $2.50 for a short Americano, which I get too often these days. And if the timing is off they dump the shots instead of trying to pass them off on unsuspecting customers. I can't tell you how many times I've watched someone try to pull shots without properly tamping the grounds. Then the baristas use proper preparation methods. They grind up Cafe D'arte, which is a good start: quality beans make screwing things up harder. But lightening service and pleasant conversation isn't why I spend my hard-earned dough on take-out coffee, IT'S ALL ABOUT THE COFFEE! and Espresso Ave doesn't disappoint. And every time I went the staff was friendly and chatty in just the right amount. It gets compared to another Everett shop with multiple locations that starts with a "B" but I tried them and they don't stand up.įirst off it's a double window drive up, and every time I went they had two employees, which is good because trying to work two lines by yourself makes for slow service.
Wrongo: Espresso Avenue not only lived up to the hype, it exceeded it. So I did a little google search after trying several outlets in Everett, WA and coming up disappointed, and one of the top-rated in town was a drive-up, which usually means two things: Bad coffee and reviewers with no taste buds. Even in San Francisco it takes a little sniffing to suss out a good cup, and what's up with serving coffee in those cereal-bowl sized cups anyway? be wary and patient if you're looking for a quality cup of 'spro. Unfortunately, once you go outside the city limits of Seattle, WA you have to. OK I'll confess to being a coffee snob, but hey, it's the little things that make life enjoyable, and for me a good cup of espresso is high on that list.
