"Caffe Vita is a Space Needle-adjacent spot that’s perfect for grabbing coffee and watching the DJs at KEXP’s recorded on-air shows mere feet away in a sound booth. Sure, that “cookie cereal milk latte slushy” on the menu is really a Frappuccino wearing a trench coat, and sometimes the espresso tastes a little bitter on an off day. But the hiss of pressed beans mingling with the chatter of indie rock at the large Seattle Center space will make you feel immediately like a local. And if you need a souvenir, buy some vinyl at the kiosk in the back." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley
