Great Coffee, Food, and Wine!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! It's a great place for coffee and also offers delicious food and snacks, similar to Starbucks. I was pleasantly surprised that they also serve wine. The atmosphere and service were both rated a perfect 5, and the food also received a 5-star rating. Parking was easy with free street parking and plenty of spaces. The wait time was non-existent, and wheelchair accessibility was good. I highly recommend this place to everyone.

Excellent Coffee, Great Experience
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic, especially concerning the coffee. There's a lot of competition on Stone Way and 45th for coffee, but I think this place is even better than Stone Way Cafe and Feva purely in terms of coffee. The food was excellent (5/5), and the atmosphere was also very pleasant (4/5), being quiet and easy to talk in. The service was top-notch (5/5).

Stone's Throw: A Comfortable Hangout Spot
My experience at Stone's Throw was quite positive, especially concerning its atmosphere. Unlike other coffee shops in North Fremont that struggle to provide comfortable spaces for people to hang out, Stone's Throw offers a variety of nooks and crannies, perfect for studying. They also have sunny seats and a patio, making it a very inviting place to spend time.

Cozy Cafe with Great Coffee and Sandwiches
My experience at this cozy café and mini market in Wallingford was delightful! I enjoyed their great coffee and found the breakfast and lunch options to be tasty and reasonably priced. I especially loved the Smokey Chicken Ham Sandwich. The café also offers a nice selection of snacks, drinks, and wine. Parking was a breeze with plenty of FREE parking, and the staff were super friendly. Both the indoor space and the dog-friendly patio are perfect for relaxing. I would love to see the menu expand with some seasonal options, but overall, it's a place that definitely deserves more customers.

Absolutely Wonderful Coffee Shop Experience!
My experience at this coffee shop was lovely, filled with the presence of wonderful souls. The staff was super friendly, and I was amazed by the fastest coffee I've ever seen. Not only was it fast, but it was also delicious and truly set me up for success for the rest of the day. Considering it's in Seattle, the pricing was spectacular, and there was an impressive variety of options, from hot items to all sorts of snacks and beverages. The cafe itself offered great vibes and was incredibly dog friendly! Every item my family tried was a hit. We will definitely be coming back, and I genuinely have nothing negative to say overall. Keep up the good work!

Excellent Coffee and Comfortable Atmosphere
I chose Stone’s Throw for its location when in need of caffeine before a meeting, and it far from disappointed. The barista was friendly, knowledgeable, and it was obvious he cared about his craft and his customer service. His co-worker was friendly too, and both were good conversationalists. Our drinks were well made; I appreciated that my matcha was not overly sweet. The market part of Stone’s Throw consists of carefully curated products. Had we been in need, we’d have no doubt been enticed by several items. Next time we’re in the area, we’ll plan time to enjoy our drinks there. Stone’s Throw is one of the too few cafes to have adult furniture, as in comfortable chairs and well-made tables. Also, there is a nice-looking patio.

Great Coffee, Chill Atmosphere, Cashless Issue
EDIT: I really didn't want to have to write this, but unfortunately the actions of MasterCard and Visa targeting the income streams of LGBTQ+ content creators mean that, by being cashless, this coffee house is complicit in discrimination and bigotry. This is a premium coffeehouse with an atmosphere I adore. They offer great coffee and all your coffeehouse favorites. The recently introduced new breakfast sandwiches are an upgrade, and while it's not a budget place, it is good value for the money. Their in-house lunch sandwiches are a highlight, alongside a wide variety of pastries. I love the chill atmosphere here; it's a good place to decompress with a consistently small crowd, which maintains the atmosphere without feeling rushed. For the comfiest seats, arrive early, or enjoy the outdoor area at the glazed wood table (weather permitting). The outdoor area can be a bit loud due to traffic, particularly trucks, but the 44 trolleybuses are quieter. Despite the outdoor noise, I appreciate having the option. On Wednesday afternoons, the barista plays some very nice music selections, often from the 60s and 70s, with a downbeat vibe. The tree mural on the wall opposite the entrance is also a lovely touch. Many people work here, making it a great spot for schoolwork during the academic year. The clientele is generally not too loud, aided by the separation of the ordering area. If you plan to have a loud conversation, please consider taking it outside. The string lights are pretty at night, but this effect is only visible in winter when they are open late enough. Dog owners seem to be the main users of the outdoor space. At lunchtime, check the cooler for non-coffee options like alcohol, soda, and kombucha, along with reasonably priced snacks (including premium options) and beer and wine on tap. I only saw one barista who was also handling table service during my visit, but it was a slow time. I've penalized one star for being cashless, which is an equity concern, preventing a perfect 5-star rating. Overall, whoever was picking the tunes on Wednesday afternoon, you're awesome!

Favorite Cafe, Delicious Drinks & Paninis!
My experience at this cafe was amazing! It's a great place to focus, and the employees truly care about their customers. The panini, london fog, and chai were all delicious. I highly recommend it; it's my 10/10 favorite cafe in the area.

Cute spot with great drinks and patio!
My experience at this restaurant was great! I loved that they had wine and beer on tap. The patio was also a fantastic feature. The service was friendly, and they offered small bites and a larder-type market. It's a super cute place!
