Jibe Espresso Bar 7001 Seaview Avenue Northwest, Seattle, WA 98117

"As for coffee I’ve only had the psl and it was okay the first time but this last time was really good. For food I’ve only gotten the, “Brekky on a Bun,” and I thought it was really good! The staff are always really nice and I’ve enjoyed hanging out there both times."

"Jibe Cafe has been my go-to spot in Ballard for the past three years. Its charm lies not in perfection, but in its interesting quirks. The place is usually bustling, and admittedly, can feel crowded and cluttered both front and back of the house. However, the intriguing artwork adorning the walls adds a unique touch that makes up for the chaos. The coffee menu, I must say, is a bit on the pricey side. The quality varies with the barista on duty, sometimes it's a hit, other times, a miss. Their homemade syrups, though creative, tend to fall short in taste compared to the standard name brands. Their food menu, on the other hand, is fairly decent. The tuna melt is a reliable choice, and their homemade soups, when available, are often a delightful surprise. The Brekkie sandwich, although good, is a bit of an investment. One peculiar practice they have is repackaging Costco-bought animal crackers and snack mix into zip lock bags, selling them at a significantly higher price. It's a bit odd and can feel somewhat overpriced. In all, Jibe Cafe is an interesting place that has its quirks. It's not for everyone, but if you appreciate a unique, lively atmosphere and a decent sandwich, it's worth a visit. The experience is like the coffee - sometimes it's a hit, sometimes it's a miss, but it's always interesting. Three stars for the charm amidst the chaos of the Marina."

"I ordered two, 12oz vanilla lattes. $7.43 each. With 15% tip, my bill was $17.50 Thats about double than Starbucks. Ok, I get it. You cater to the wealthy yacht owners. My issue was it was completely flavorless. I couldn’t taste vanilla, nor could I taste coffee. So….$7.43 for hot water. Staff were like zombies. Not friendly at all. Atmosphere is a little cluttered and appears kind of dirty. I’ll stick with Firehouse cafe down the street."

"They only had grilled cheese and tuna melt sandwiches for lunch. I got the tuna melt. It tastes good just wish they had another option."

"Very good americano and sandwiches with a spectacular view around the corner. Friendly and responsive service. Waterfront oasis."
