La Bella Bean Espresso - Bothell

Absolutely the best coffee and baristas around! The owner, along with her sister and a couple of other delightful staff members, craft incredible drinks. They’re all intelligent, funny, and incredibly kind. Supporting small businesses like this is essential to keep them thriving—let's not allow corporate America to take over! They also have a stamp card system for a free drink, so be sure to visit often! This is my favorite spot.

Sometimes I’m welcomed by Melissa with a smile as sweet as sugar, and other times I get the sassy charm of Callie. But every single time, I enjoy a fantastic cup of coffee. Thank you, ladies, for making my mornings so much better!

I came across this charming stand while heading to meet a friend for lunch and decided to stop by afterward. I arrived just 17 minutes before closing, and although the open sign was lit, no one came to the window. Hopefully, I’ll get the chance to visit next time!

I’m owed an espresso drink because I completed the stamp card and was about to redeem it when six Bothell police officers showed up and escorted me off her property. I’ve tried to redeem it since then, but she told me, "You need to be working." What a disappointment she turned out to be.

We visited this restaurant because it was a favorite of one of our friends, and she couldn't have been more right about it. The staff member we interacted with was absolutely charming, and we thoroughly enjoyed all of our different coffee drinks.
