Revolution Coffee & Art

i’m so sad this place is closing down. i just found out about it and so far i’m a huge fan of their coffee. i sincerely hope they open up in a new location in west seattle or downtown. i think i’ve walked by this place hundreds of times but never even noticed it! it’s so tucked away that it totally does this place a disservice.

Currently sipping the best white chocolate mocha I have ever had while typing up a review on Revolution’s free wifi! I recommend you drop by and get one while you still can.
Unfortunately I may be the last to ever review this hole-​in-​the-​wall gem of a coffee shop. The sign on the door reads «Going out of business. CLOSING MARCH 5TH.»
Damn that bastard we call the economy.

So glad I came across Revolution Coffee this morning after a suggestion from the BECU bank across the street.
I love when you go in to a new place and they ask you if you’ve ever been here before and when you say no they explain all about what they do and serve. This is what happened today.
After being told about all the offerings (food and coffee) I chose a Mexican mocha with whip and a cinnamon bun. Both were kick butt and the service was top notch! I just had to ask the barista if she owned the place or was just great at customer service. Turns out she owns it and has been killing it for 4 years now. I love seeing success like this!
Free wi-​fi. Interesting mix of music played above. Computers to use if you dont have yours. Steady flow of customers.
Enjoy!

Great little coffee shop, tucked away across the street from Wells Fargo at the junction.
My soy latte was a shocking $ 2 (it was coffee HH– 12pm-​2pm daily, after all) and it was delicious. I particularly like that they have regular soy and vanilla soy options available.
Lots of art on the walls, some computers for your WiFi pleasure… happily adding this to my list of coffee shops I can actually work at.

An inviting neighborhood coffee house with interesting art displays each month and an awesome owner, Angie. Three computers you can use. 15 min free with coffee purchase and .10 thereafter.

Great Coffee. Great Art. Great Attitude.

They have shorts! They have $ 1 drip coffee (short). I do wish they had a little more food offerings and a cosier atmosphere.

Let me start by saying that the coffee at this fantastical shop is not to be missed. You can skip the bloated lines at the coffee place down the street and come here instead and get some of the best handcrafted espresso beverages that don’t have one drop of automated espresso — it’s all pulled the old fashioned way; that is to say, the best way to do it. You won’t find any McCoffee here.
Angie is perhaps the most blunt person in the world. If you’re looking for fake flower bullcorn you are likely in the wrong place but if you want your coffee as serious as your barista, get yourself to Revolution Coffee immediately. You will be grateful that you did.

One of those narrow storefronts right in the heart of Admiral Junction, easy to miss if you’ve never been there before even if you’re looking for it. (Hint: it’s in that row of shops between the flower shop/​WaMu and the JackInTheBox, in front of the Safeway. Yes it is – look again!)
Super friendly baristas and decent coffee. I like the atmosphere but I’ve only stopped in on my way to work so far so I’m only judging the morning crowd. I’d be happier if they were open in the evenings, but I’m not paying their bills.
Viva la Revolucion!

Excellent coffee, amazing music always playing, the nicest staff in the world. FREE WIFI! Hence the reason «I LIVED there» when I was unemployed this winter. Also a bakery, so they make their own goodies…

This is a good place for good coffee, some Internet and a spot of art. And Angie is one if my favorite baristas ever.
Update: Revolution Coffee & Art has got new owners. The good news is that the coffee is still the same, the art is still good. But there’s even more news. The new owners are turning Revolution Coffe into West Seattle’s first non-​profit coffee shop. I think that’s exciting!

Great coffee, free wi-​fi, new art every month and a cute barista. What more could you ask for?
