The home of Starbucks has more to offer.
I am never opposed to going full tourist! Sometimes you've got to embrace the chaos. Honestly, I go to Pike's Place Market every time I'm in Seattle. The Salmon Sandwich at Market Grill is one of my favorite lunches. So if you have the tourist itch, (and don't mind waiting in lines) you should probably visit The Original Starbucks and the Reserve Roastery. I get it. But this is for those of you who just need a really good cup of coffee. Not one you can get in literally every other city in the world. Here are your three must try coffee shops in Seattle:
