Ballard Coffee Co

Ballard Coffee Co. is one of those local spots that just feels fantastic. It has this warm, inviting vibe, amazing service, and coffee that is clearly made with a lot of care. Whether you are in the mood for a solid drip coffee or their famous vanilla lavender latte, you can tell every drink comes from a place of real passion.

And then there is the food. Breakfast here is next level. The Ballard breakfast sandwich is a total standout: crispy bacon, a fluffy egg, and melty cheese all piled onto a perfectly golden biscuit. Add a smear of their homemade tomato jam or a kick of spicy mayo aioli, and it is game over. Those biscuits, crisp on the outside, and soft and buttery inside, are amazing on their own or with some of the artisanal jams and butters they have on hand.

The place has outdoor seating, and they are even working on a drive-through soon, so it is as easy to swing by as it is cozy to stay. Plus, they are big on supporting the community. Think live music and art events featuring local talent. Ballard Coffee Co is not just a coffee shop; it is a little hub of good vibes and great flavors that is absolutely worth checking out.
