What travelers think of our USA experiences
What you’ll do
You’ll join one of our local Seattle hosts to get to the bottom of the city’s coffee culture, although after a few cups, you might be sprinting not crawling.
In a city that prides itself on having the most coffee shops in America, it goes without saying that you’ll end up enjoying a cup or three.
The coffee here picked up where tea and vitamin D left off (can we thank the famous Seattle drizzle for this caffeine-obsessed culture?), and the city is now a mecca for all things coffee.
You’ll get to visit the original Starbucks Cafe in Pike Place Market - all in the name of history, of course - as well as discover some trendy brew labs and the unique, quirky and independent coffee shops on which the city prides itself.
Try your hand at being a barista at the La Marzocco Espresso Lab - it will give you a greater appreciation of the work of a barista when you sip your next cup - then let the professionals show you how it’s done.
With the right pastry, cake, or bake alongside (which of course you’ll also indulge in), you’ll be in coffee heaven in no time.
