I come from a life in the brewing industry so to me the Starbucks Reserve Roastery feels more like a brewery than a roaster and I love that about it!! The roasting equipment rivals some of the nicest breweries I have ever stepped in, and this just speaks to the amount of quality, detail, and love that Starbucks put into this place! The single origin coffees are absolutely amazing, and it shows you exactly how different single origin beans are. As a coffee roaster myself, these are some of the best single origin beans I have had at any coffee shop. The adult beverages and food here is absolutely amazing too and definitely worth experiencing. I come here every time I am in Seattle, and I recommend at least experiencing this place once in your life!!
A great place to spend your evening, given the weather conditions in Seattle. It’s a warm and cozy place.
I like the interior of this place with warm lighting and seating areas spread across . They have coffee section, spirits section( yes there is a bar 😀) and the bakery section.
I like those huge roasting machines and the fancy coffee grinding and brewing machines on display.
The bakery section had fresh chocolate croissant even in the evening and the price was nominal.
I highly recommend this place.
I decided to go on an all day walk about, and this was my first stop of my day. I've started to experiment with brewing techniques and coffees, so I thought I would grab a cup and wander. The scent of roasting coffee was very pleasantly wafting in the air. There were lot of tourists milling about the merchandise. There was a line of folks waiting to get their caffeine fixes and maybe a pastry to go with it. There is plenty of areas to sit and enjoy your cup while taking in the lovely day. I caught the last part of a presentation on vacuum brewing that looked rather fun.

Awesome place. Feels very upscale and have plenty of place to sit and hang out. So many stuff going on in here, fresh roasting, food made in house, awesome staff, the list goes on!
I had to try the aged whiskey barrel cold brew, it was awesome! Even served with a whiskey cube.
Must visit when in town!
The review is more of how different the fancy Starbucks vs normal. They serve Alcohol with coffee drinks. They have more food like pizza with verity of toppings, different type of sandwiches, and pastry options. My brother like the tiramisu, it was $11. Price are expensive. My sister in law did not like her espresso martini, it was too sweet for her. It has nice open area and you sat down to enjoy your coffee. You can use your Starbucks app to pay but no reward on purchase.
If you are a coffee or tea lover, you will enjoy this Starbucks experience. The line to get in was a bit of a wait, but it was really cool to see this roastery! There was plenty of food and drink options to choose from on both sides of the building. There was also really neat merchandise that you would not typically find at a Starbucks. Definitely worth a trip to just see and experience it at least once.
I lived right next door and have come here a few times when accompanying visiting friends. They enjoyed the experience.
There are two pastry and food service counters, a big merchandise area (the products are branded as Starbucks Reserve, not Starbucks!), and huge coffee roasters in the back. It's definitely a cool place to visit even if you are not a Starbucks fan. Drinks and food are pricey, of course, and there is often a line outside!
I bring my family and friends to this unique Starbucks place so they can have a different experience. Food is really great especially the pizza matched with your Starbucks drink. You can never go wrong whether you come in the morning or evening.
