Macrina is a Seattle favorite that lives up to its reputation every time. Their pastries range from flaky cinnamon rolls to rustic scones, all baked to perfection. Breakfasts are hearty and flavorful, with herb-roasted potatoes and fresh fruit adding just the right touch. Their ciabatta roll is a staple, used in many of the breakfast sandwiches, and well worth the spotlight. The café has a warm, bright layout with both indoor and outdoor seating. Service is friendly and organized, even when the line stretches to the door. Coffee is strong, hot, and served fast. Everything from the baked goods to the atmosphere feels polished but never pretentious. It’s the kind of place where you can enjoy a full breakfast or just a quick morning pastry with ease.
