Been coming to ICC, (yeah thats what the cool cats call it) since it opened up many many years ago. And like anything it takes a bit to get a hang of things, but my family and I have always been loyal to Ryan (the owner) and his crew. On any given day I can walk through the door and they know exactly what my wife and I are having. Seriously, theyre that good. By the time Im done signing the credit card charge receipt they have my coffee waiting at the end of the counter. Ive heard people say theyre rude... But I dont know what planet they were on. These guys always ask my family, my health, plans, and everything in between. They are the best. As for the coffee, every batista is going to be a bit different. But consistently Id say the coffee is great. My cougar mountain latte is always nice and foamy and the shots are poured perfectly. They use Stumptown coffee which is way better than Starbucks burnt roast. The coffee tastes strong and distinguished without it being bitter. The pastries are all locally sourced. Ryan works with local bakers and pastry shops which is amazing. I love supporting local businesses. These guys are totally local and Ill give them my money way over going to Starbucks greedy enterprise. Support local, drink good coffee, thank me later!

Sum up: Good blended drinks. Too busy and loud to study. Pros: I really like their macaroon blended coffee and the coconut/chocolate bits it has in it; I usually add cinnamon to it! The service is very fast, as well even if it is super busy. I have tried a variety of pastries that have been really tasty. Cons: For a while I did come twice a week and got bored of their menu which hasnt happened to me with other coffee places. If you are looking to study or work this isnt the ideal locations as most tables are always full and it is louder than the average coffee shop. Also, I usually have to wait in a line of 3/4 people to use the bathroom since there is just one stall.

First time going and while we were quickly asked what we wanted, we were rushed. Impatient order taker was visably annoyed with my questions, and couldnt fulfill my desire for a simple ice blended almond milk latte with a flavor. I accepted a hot one, and both the milk and the shots were burnt. I couldnt take more than 2 drinks of the coffee before tossing it. The other customers were the only pleasant part of the experience.

First time here, and so glad I came. The building is a little tricky to find, but it is so precious. The staff was a little short, but it looked like they were just getting over a rush. Not too helpful either, seemed irritated when I asked questions. The coffee though? Incredible. Really smooth and not too sweet. They make their caramel sauce fresh. Pastries were great too. Definitely will be swinging by more often.

This is a great local spot that has a good variety of coffee roasts as well as espresso drinks. I had a chocolate and vanilla latte which wasnt too sweet at all... something i really appreciate. A lot of people here had their kids with them which you dont see too often in coffee shops. It had the vibe of a place you could hang out a while and talk. I also bought a bag of beans they roast themselves which was quite good.

I am not fancy. I get drip coffee and oatmeal. The drip coffee is great, which can often be a good measuring stick for the quality of the rest of the coffee drinks. The WiFi is good. Although it is busy inside, I have never had to wait for more than 1 person in front of me. Plenty of comfortable places to sit and hang out. I have sat for hours writing a paper and stayed jyst long enough to get my stuff and go.

Issaquah Coffee Company is a well rounded coffee shop. Its in downtown Issaquah among a few other interesting shops. The staff are friendly, attentive, and they offer a variety of goods from specialty coffee, pastries, quiche, and even kombucha. There are dozens of tables and seats and very strong wifi. Check in on Yelp (theres a $1 coupon for a latte when you do), sip your coffee, and stay awhile.

Stumptown Coffee, Kombucha, pastries, sandwiches & free Wi-Fi. Hidden local spot next to the Issaquah river in Gilman Village with tables, couches, kid area & outdoor seating with heat lamps for those cold WA days. Definitely one of my favorite spots in the Puget Sound region. Almost always bustling with locals & can definitely get loud but when you find a spot, you might not ever leave.

My hemp Cougar Mountain latte was amazing. Im an instant fan of this coffee place. If youre lactose intolerant like me, youll love the selection of alternatives to milk- hemp, almond, rice and soy. They have it all covered. They also have gluten free options. I had the gluten free banana bread and loved it. Ill definitely be coming back on a routine basis.

Just fine. Many seats, but not plenty of spase. People kinda sits on each others. Not much privacy. Its messy behind the barista place. Overall place looks like chaotic and dirty. Bakery doesnt seams attractive. I didnt feel the atmosphere. And because service was really nice, Im definitely come back and will give to it another chance.

This place had so much character and potential, but the reality is a letdown. Rude baristas, dry pastries, soggy microwaved sandwiches, and coffee that despite being Stumptown roasted always tastes watered down. Also kinda dumb is the "No Dogs Allowed" sign, considering the owners dog is in there every day. Go to Seattle for good coffee.

A very nice little cafe in a beautiful Gilman village shopping area. They have outdoor seating and many indoor seats too. You will find many people spending their work day in this cafe so getting a seat could be difficult sometimes. I would love if they start serving more vegetarian food options which is not just sweet.

Absolutely the best coffee shop in Issaquah. They use stumptown beans and the staff is great. I definitely recommend coming here if youre already in Issaquah. I would avoid the most popular times though because when theyre busy I feel like the quality of their drinks suffers a bit.

Discovered this gem yesterday! It served awesome coffee and tempting home made cookies and snacks . I am so happy to support a great small business that makes fantastic coffee. It is popular Especially for families, but everyone is welcome. I will return for sure, maybe today.

Issaquah coffee started out as a place that was close to my work and then became the only place I would dare go to for coffee. Great service, great coffee, yummy treats (try the banana bread!) and they dont mind if you camp out while you work or read. Just go, already.

Nice and friendly environment. Coffee is OK and overpriced. They allow dogs to roam around the shop with no leashes on and this can make it hard for someone with allergies or who is not comfortable around pets to sit down and have a nice time.

What a lively place! I stopped in here to do some reading. They have lots of outdoor seating in the middle of a "village square." The buildings are arranged in a loose cluster, with Issaquah on the outside. Great coffee and customer service.
