Anchorhead Coffee’s three locations in Seattle — and one in Bellevue — offers something for every palate. The cafe’s pineapple coconut caramel latte balances sweet and acidic flavors, creating a kind of caffeinated piña colada you can take to the beach or the ferry terminal. Anchorhead’s housemade blueberry oat milk nitro latte is an unexpected pairing for those in search of a more mellow fruit. For those in search of hydration, the soda bonita is a spicy sparkling watermelon juice with ginger, habanero, and lime.

Fulcrum’s seasonal menu changes with the weather, featuring drinks that incorporate ingredients like ube, rose, tahini and sesame. The cafe’s sleek but welcoming interior design radiates sunlight no matter how cloudy, generating an endless summer mood year-round. If you’re already awake and caffeinated, Fulcrum’s housemade muddled strawberry basil soda is a refreshing treat.

Boon Boona’s summer drinks are inspired. For lattes, try the toasted coconut white chocolate mocha, or the orange blossom latte for a bright and floral flavor. For decaf options, the cafe’s housemade rootbeer is herbaceous and sweet, and the peach peony iced tea is a delicate floral treat to keep you hydrated.

Valentina’s Cafe stands out with their single-origin Mexican chocolate habanero mocha and flor de Oaxaca lattes. The Tulum latte features coconut cream, and the Valencia’s orange coffee pairing makes every morning better. For non-coffee options on hot summer days, Valentina’s is featuring a habanero-lime agua fresca.

Ghost Note Coffee balances flavors with care, precision, and beauty. Preparing many of their seasonal drinks in a martini shaker, Ghost Note’s espresso tonics, lattes, and other offerings are an elevated experience. Try an effervescent tonic or the Soundscape shaken with vegan cream, non-alcoholic rum, and root beer bitters. Or ask for a suggestion, because the menu is always evolving.
