Mintish Coffee House

Can’t recommend this coffee shop enough. From the service, to the quality and the flavors, everything is above and beyond. All their drinks are exceptional but my fav is the chai and pistachio latte. I took my friend as well and she said it’s the best chai in the city. All their sandwiches are delicious, especially the roast beef sandwich (all their toppings are so delicious and flavorful) and the Zataar grilled cheese - simple but oh so good!! Also, the owners are exceptional people who work hard for their customers and never compromise on quality. This has easily become our most favorite coffee shop in the city.

AWESOMEEEE! the entire experience was so perfect. Amazing service - they're all SO nice. Coffee and food super yummy. A great area to work for a few hours with my small team. Haloumi sandwich was TOP tier - so so good. Levantine coffee could be stronger flavored! But pistachio and Damascus lattes were perfect. Colleague had the date croissant and loved it. Avocado toast was fresh and tasty - more avocado would be nice for the price! Mintish cake was a sweet way to close out. We decided to do as many of our team meetings here as possible. Perfect vibes and good 💕💕💕💕

I love everything about Mintish!! The three guys have worked so hard to create a fantastic gathering place and experience. Everything I've ordered has been great, but the stars for me are the food, particularly the kunafeh cheesecake (so rich and smooth!!), the zaatar grilled cheese, and the mintish cake. I've also loved the mintish juice and their coffee is delish. The space is beautiful and inviting, the service fast and friendly, and I have a hard time not coming here every day! It's a wonderful addition to the Cap Hill community. Thanks Nano, Mahmoud and Abdullah!

This café is still pretty new, but it’s already buzzing every time I stop by, and it’s easy to understand why. The atmosphere feels warm the moment you walk in. I even watched a woman come through the door, pause when she saw how crowded it was, and a staff member immediately stepped in to help her find a table before she turned around to leave. That kind of attention makes a big difference. I tried the pistachio latte, the date cake, and the basil turkey sandwich. The latte was the star of the visit. It was rich, smooth, and so good I finished it in just a couple of sips. An easy 5 stars. The date cake was another standout. It was perfectly moist, not too sweet, and felt like something you’d want to have with coffee on a slow morning. Also 5 stars. The basil turkey sandwich was flavorful and filling, and I liked the mix of textures, but the olives caught me off guard. Still delicious, just not my favorite part, so I’d give it a solid 4.5. Everyone I interacted with was kind and welcoming, which only added to the experience. I’m already looking forward to my next visit.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️☆ We found this coffee shop on TikTok, and it looked so good that we literally left the house right then and there on a Sunday to try it. We were so excited to finally have a real Arabi coffee spot here in Seattle! The place was a bit smaller than we anticipated, but the vibe was warm and welcoming. The owners were super sweet, kind, and their customer service was excellent — truly such lovely people. Between us, we had four lattes: pistachio, dumasc, and date — and then went back for another pistachio latte because we couldn’t resist. All were flavorful and delicious, though we wished the pistachio flavor came through a bit more. We also indulged in the za’atar cheesy melt and the halloumi sandwich — both were so good! Honestly, we enjoyed the food even more than the coffee. Now here’s where it lost us a bit — as Middle Easterns, we love our spices in coffee. So seeing them use cardamom syrup instead of the real thing was a little disheartening (and okay… a tiny bit insulting 😭). THIS IS HARAM!! We really wanted to love this place all around! That said, we’ll definitely be back for the food and to support the lovely owners. Great service, great vibes — just hoping the coffee catches up to the name!

Congratulations on a beautiful Palestinian coffee shop. Stopped by with my family for a delicious breakfast and had so many treats. Levantine latte was full of flavour, turkish coffee elegant, zaatar croissants, hallumi sandwich, turkey sandwich and to die for mintish cake. Nothing dissappointed! We are so happy and proud if your coffee shop ❤️🇵🇸🧿🙏🏽

Been here twice now. Not only is it Palestinian owned, the most welcoming staff, the coffee is of the best I've had as a Seattle local. The flavors of the Demasc Latte come out so balanced sweet orange blossom with the coffee flavor. Also, their food is GOOD. Get the zataar croissant. They also have outlets for those doing work. The owners gave sample of seasonal Salep drink for the winter. Delicious. Go support them 🇵🇸

Love their coffee. So bold and smooth. I got the demasc latte and it had a good blend of orange and cardamom flavor. It felt like a warm hug in a cup, perfect for the fall cozy weather. If you're looking to do computer work, this place is a good spot for that as well. The main space is small but they have outdoor seating and a space extending to another building you can use that may offer more privacy and space, which I like as an introvert. Mahmoud helped us today. He was really nice and the rest of the team as well. Definitely will be back to try their pastries and other coffee! As someone who grew up in SoCal, diversity is what I miss about it the most. So happy that there's a coffee shop with Palestinian roots and representation. Congrats, Mahmoud and team!

I chose to visit Mintish for the first time on Indigenous Peoples' Day -- a choice I made with purpose. It's Palestinian-owned, and I already knew the food would be rooted in care, culture, and memory. I wasn't wrong. It was extraordinary. I broke my fast with their Mintish Cake Halloumi and a Pistachio Oat Milk Latte, and it felt like more than a meal -- it was ceremony. The halloumi was golden, perfectly crisp, resting on a minty, herbal base that was layered, light, and deeply satisfying. It had that kind of flavor that unfolds slowly -- bright, grounding, and made with real intention. Every bite had me going mmm instinctively, not just from taste, but from the way it nourished something deeper. Then the pistachio latte -- wow. They make their pistachio foam and toppings in-house, and it shows. It was creamy, earthy, not too sweet, and topped with crushed pistachio and house-made foam that tasted alive. The pistachio oil comes from Felestini, and that richness took it to a whole other level -- it felt like drinking a harvest. The ambiance was perfect -- calming, clean, and thoughtfully designed, with that quiet kind of beauty that invites you to stay awhile. The staff were so warm, welcoming, and deeply knowledgeable -- happy to share about the ingredients and origins, which made everything feel even more meaningful. You can tell they care, and they're proud of what they create. Mintish isn't just food -- it's nourishment, story, and resistance on a plate. On a day honoring Indigenous presence, strength, and survival, it felt powerful to be held by Palestinian hospitality and flavor, which carry their own ancestral depth. I walked out full -- not just in body, but in spirit. This place is truly something special. Go with intention. Let yourself feel it.

This cafe isn't just about coffee, it's about community and sincerity. You can feel the owners' love and passion in every little detail. They're some of the sweetest and kindest people you'll meet, and even their customers reflect that same warmth and care. Everything here feels real and full of heart, from the coffee to the sandwiches and everything in between. Truly one of the best places around.

Beautiful atmosphere with classic Arabic songs always playing, kind and attentive staff, delicious coffee in unique flavors paired with a great savory sandwich and sweet pastry selection - the best cafe in Cap Hill and it's not even close I love the community atmosphere here and that the staff recognize me and remember my name and favorite menu items even though I only manage to make it here once a week I HIGHLY recommend trying the roast beef sandwich - it is the best sandwich I have ever had!

Heard good things about this new coffee shop and when I was in the area for an event I finally tried it. The coffee did not disappoint! I ordered the Levantine latte with oat milk and it was delicious. I also got a za'atar croissant and a lemon mint cake to take home. Both were excellent. The cake was flavorful and moist. The service was very friendly! I even asked if I could leave a poster for an event and they said they would try to find some space for it at the counter. This is a popular spot to get work done too, as it was crowded on a friday morning when I went.

This is a really welcoming and cozy coffee shop. It feels like one of the unknown hidden gems in the city. I only found it because of a friend, but I'm so glad I did. The coffee is delicious, the sandwiches are all handmade to order (no prebagged food), and it's a really great atmosphere. It's run by two brothers and you can tell they genuinely care about the shop. Come check this spot out.

Yup, will be back! Wanted to support a new Seattle business, and they know what they're doing. I ordered the demask latte and it was 10/10. A little on the sweeter side, will order less sweet next time, but truly the perfect blend of cardamom and orange. The snacks and pastries looked really good, will have to go back for some fall goodies. Space was relatively big, lots of seating for studying/working. Parking: street parking around the neighborhood

The aroma of the place pulls you in. The friendliness of the staff makes you feel like you are at home. The coffee is smooth. I ordered the pistachio latte and it was warm and velvety with notes of roasted pistachio and caramelized sweetness. Each sip was rich and nutty, balanced by a silky espresso finish. The croissants are flaky and buttery with the perfect exterior. The avocado toast was just as delicious. Fresh and bright ingredients but I just wish it had a little more avocado on it. But still a complete perfect bite. Tucked away on a quiet street in capital hill, parking is available on the surrounding streets. There is one ADA parking spot close by. The place gets busy and packed and rightfully so. This coffee spot should be a regular spot in everyone's rotation.

Love love love!! I've been here a few times and each time just gets better and better. Definitely recommend trying their tiramisu latte - it has the perfect amount of sweetness without overpowering the espresso flavor. My favorite is their roast beef sandwich it's packed with flavor and super filling. The space itself is pretty small but perfect for remote work/studying or just catching up with friends. The service is super nice and the employees are great at explaining items from the menu. Definitely recommend stopping by if in the area!

My sister and I went today and got lattes/the mintish juice, as well as the zaatar grilled cheese. They absolutely knocked it out of the park, best juice i've had in a long time, and the lemon mint combo felt like the perfect last kiss of summer flavors. The flavors were just amazing all around, unlike most typical Seattle coffee shops. To top it off, the owner introduced himself, and was absolutely delightful to speak with. So glad to be able to visit such a special spot, and will certainly be coming back regularly.

This is amazing how a new indie cafe located on tree lined street one block from Broadway felt like a restful oasis (9/14/25). I savored a Leventine latte and a moist date cake. I sat at the counter facing the sidewalk. It was pleasant having the windows open and just enjoyed being onsite. I look forward to a return visit to try other menu items, especially the sandwiches. Another welcomed addition to Seattle's Capitol Hill neighborhood!

The chai was very tasty and so was the Levantine coffee cake slice. They were out of lots of things I wanted to try so I'll have to come back and try more. The staff are very sweet and it was lit for a Sunday when I was in with nowhere to sit down, it was so busy. The ceiling is really pretty and there's lots of windows and a patio if you prefer outside. They are dog friendly so that's a pro for me too.

What keeps me coming back to Mintish is not only the beverages, food, and pastries but also their exceptional hospitality. I have never met owners and staff who are so approachable and dedicated, putting their hearts and efforts into everything they provide for customers. Learning how they started to open revealed their patience and eagerness to bring uniqueness to this area. I learned Levant because of this store. They are living up as a rising sun as well. The place is decorated with creativity, and many people enjoy the open window. The flavor of Turkish coffee is strong, intense, rich, and aromatic. I prefer it black, but I've heard other customers rave about the flavored options. All the signature coffees I've tried, as well as those I've overheard others trying, have been outstanding. The pistachio cheesecake is unlike American or Japanese cheesecake; it is rich, and you can taste the pistachio. My friend, who isn't typically a cheesecake person, enjoyed theirs a lot! The date cake lives up to its description as a rich spiced date cake. I love dates, and if you do too, you will fall in love with this cake. It took me three days to finish! We can't wait to try more of what Mintish has to offer and enjoy being in the space. Thank you for bringing such unique dishes, coffee, and beverages here!

The perfect little cafe nestled just below Broadway within more residential parts of Cap Hill. I tried the halloumi sandwich which was delicious and perfectly seasoned. For drinks I tried the Levantine latte and pistachio latte. The pistachio uses homemade pistachio cream which was so delicious and the standout of this visit. I want to come back to try their cakes!

Their pistachio latte was really good. It was a nice hot beverage during this fall season. Caught the light rail up to Capitol Hill. A colorful tree-like art piece is right next to the cafe. Chihuly maybe? I was greeted when I walked in and the dining area was already packed. Lots of laptop campers. They might need a bigger space in the future to accommodate their growing customer base. I wasn't planning on sticking around but a couple of customers got up as soon as I grabbed my drink and I was able to sit for a bit. They're definitely on my top 5 Capitol Hill coffee shops. It's a warm and welcoming vibe. I give them a high walkability score as they're near the bus line on Broadway and they're about a 7 minute walk from the light rail station.

Friendly and customer service oriented! Love the ambience. I had the pistachio latte and banana bread. Love them and can't wait try more options from this place.

Amazing experience! 10/10 customer service sold me right away but these DRINKS ‍ We tried the Levantine Latte and Mintish Juice The Levantine Latte has a delicious depth with notes of cardamom and honey Th Mintish Juice is a mint infused lemonade which is so refreshing. I love that the mint is so potent! Definitely coming again, thinking of trying the Pistachio and Demasc lattes next

Excellent food and service quality. I've been missing out on having Levantine coffee my whole life and these guys made up for it. 10/5 stars if I could for the overall coffee, food, and hospitality experience. Hard to pick a favorite - captured moments below include: Pic 1: Pistachio latte (iced ofc) Pic 2: Pistacho, Tiramisu, and Date latte. Kunafeh Cheescake, Dubai Chocolate Cheescake, Date cake w caramel sauce Pic 3: Zaatar grilled cheese Pic 4: Basil turkey sandwich & choco chip cookie

Brand new spot in Capitol Hill and already a fave. The space is modern but super cozy! Perfect for hanging out or getting a little work done. I got the pistachio latte and wow...so good. Not too sweet, just that perfect nutty flavor. I also grabbed their Zatar grilled cheese and it hit the spot! The staff was So friendly and chill. You feel welcome the second you walk in. Highly recommend that pistachio latte if you stop by!

Out of all the new Arab coffee shops that opened, this has the best staff, service, and coffee. I even tried their roast beef sandwich. Tasted amazing. Such a wholesome Ambiance.

Mintish is such a gem! warm atmosphere, smooth coffee, and genuinely kind people behind the counter. I've been, and it was delicious! Can't wait to bring my two girlfriends here next time. Seattle needs more spots like this; cozy, real, and made with love.

It was one of go to spots during my limited time in Seattle. The staff are very friendly, the coffee is delicious. A nice café. I recommend it

line out the door n a saturday morning! seattle has shown love for falesteen and its people by supporting this new-ish business run by two palestinean brothers. the ambiance, welcome and menu offerings are consistent what you would expect from a business that highlights the bounty of that area of the world and i'm more than happy to go out of my way to try this business, given how besieged the homeland is. i only had time to grab a to go beverage so i ordered a 12oz levantine latte which was flavorful but didn't deliver on the cardamom flavor i was hoping for. i had asked for it to be heavy on cardamom but despite the emphasis on that ingredient, it was still very good. all tables were occupied when i was there and people were ordering baked goods and sandwiches. the one drawback for those who don't live in the capitol hill neighborhood is the obvious parking challenge; today i lucked out but this would be a place that would be easier to access if you lived in the 'hood or were roaming around on foot. if i lived closer, i'd probably be here with regularity due to the menu options and the warm hospitality. i wish them well with the business and i hope that people continue to come out to support businesses that reflect the rich cultural diversity of our corner of the country and of the greater world!

I love everything about Mintish!! It just opened in my building and the three guys have poured their hearts into making a beautiful, welcoming space with delicious food and drinks. I have trouble not going every day! My favorites so far have been the kunafeh cheesecake, za'atar grilled cheese, and mintish juice, but everything I've tried has been so good. The space is bright and airy and cheerful, with careful attention paid to the smallest touches, like coasters. Nano, Mahmoud and Abdullah are so kind and welcoming, and I'm so glad they're my new neighbors!

Yikes. Mintish Coffee House is the definition of "Instagram over substance." and they must be buying Google reviews to make it seem hyped up. The coffee tastes like it was brewed with melted plastic bottle syrup, and somehow - somehow - four people behind the counter still manage to take fifteen minutes to make one drink. Fifteen. For something that tastes like regret and burned milk. The shop itself? Tiny. Hard chairs. Zero chill. You can't even sit with your friends unless your friend is imaginary (and even they might leave). Then there's the ordering process - picture a game of "telephone" gone terribly wrong. The barista can't hear names, spell names, or apparently recognize typical coffee drinks. After butchering your name, and your order, they sprint over to make your coffee... and, shocker, it's awful. No chatting and lovely owners like the Google Reviews make it seem - just a group of people that have no idea what they are doing. I got scorched milk and espresso sludge, a receipt with my name spelled incorrectly, and nowhere to sit to process the disappointment. I came to Yelp after seeing hundreds of 5-star reviews and a perfect ranking on Google. Hundreds of glowing ones over on Google Maps from "world travelers" who've reviewed random business all over the world, just enough to show 2-3 revies on their profile but they don't make any sense and are from nowhere Florida, then another in London, and apparently this shop. Somehow this random coffee shop that's been open for - checks notes - one month. Buying reviews is the only thing they're doing efficiently. Seattle, we can do better. Let's support the coffee spots that actually care about beans, not bots.

Stopped by Mintish while visiting from out of town. A friend had brought back the Demask Latte and I was blown away by the flavors, had to see it for myself. The shop is very cozy and cute, and the staff were patient and kind. I went back on multiple occasions to try different things! Would definitely recommend all the lattes and the pistachio croissant.

Superb vibes, very friendly staff and a lively Levantine touch. We tried the Zaatar Grilled Cheese and Pistachio Latte, both were very delicious & by far the best pistachio latte in Seattle!! We will definitely come back again soon!

The pistachio latte was delicious, smooth, and full of flavor. The place has such a nice atmosphere, and the service was spot on from start to finish Highly recommend

While visiting Seattle we knew we wanted to stop at this lovely coffee shop. Palestinian owned and spectacular in their service, the quality of the food and drinks was also next level and the general feel in the space was so nice. They have extra seating indoors in cooler weather and the bathroom is super clean. We had the Levantine Late and it was amazing, the zaatar grilled cheese - soooooo good you can't miss this, a stunning citrus cake and their caramel macchiato which also was very good. Highly recommend this lovely spot with the sweetest owners and phemeonal food and drinks!

Best coffee in Seattle! Most unique coffee shop in Seattle! Friendly people who work there! Also, Mintish has a great and convenient location in Capitol Hill. It's definitely worth going there. You will not be disappointed at all. You will love it there. Trust me. I am the most picky person in Seattle and I am also actually from here born and raised.

Absolutely loved my experience at this spot! I ordered the Pistachio Latte (upon recommendation, of which I am so thankful) and a Halloumi Sandwich - both were amazing!! Everyone I interacted with was so friendly! There was a bit of a line when I arrived, but the line moved efficiently and swiftly -- which gave me a chance to read the menu. (I almost ordered the date latte and still want to try it. Will just have to come back to Seattle!) Definitely recommend if you're in the area!!

Im so excited for this new spot on the hill! Everyone was friendly and very passionate about their products. My partner and I had the Demasc latte and the Date latte, with a lemon cake to share. Everything was so delicious. Looking forward to coming back for more!

Thrilled to have this in Capitol Hill! Truly such a treat to be able to walk down the hill to a friendly, comforting, and familiar establishment. The three guys who started this lovely coffee shop are incredibly hospitable and kind and its clear they have put a lot of thought and effort into the menu and overall experience they offer. I had the Demasc latte and can happily confirm the orange blossom + cardamom combo is genius and was thoroughly enjoyed. I also had the grilled halloumi sandwich which was delicious and generously filled with that coveted, expensive, hard to find perfectly grilled halloumi along with fresh tomato and cucumber and the perfect olive tapenade to tie it all together. The labneh and avocado toast was fresh and light with the perfect drizzle of sweet balsamic glaze complimenting and balancing the tart labneh. The passionfruit mojito was really refreshing and delicious also. The atmosphere and details of the space are as tasteful as their menu items, featuring design elements and Arabic text as well as murals on the walls paying homage to our ancestral lands. Welcome to the neighborhood, Mintish!

Maybe the best hot chocolate I've had in Seattle. Date cake was super flavorful and delicious too!

Came here to support a new coffee shop in Seattle. Got the pistacho latte, date latte, tiramisu latte, date cake, Dubai, chocolate cake and kunafeh cheese cake. 10/10 recommend it was lovely service, coffee was great and everything was delicious.

Need a change from the same tired coffee and same tired pastries? This small CapHill coffee house is for you. Coffee flavors are inventive and subtle. Pastries and sandwiches delicious. Staff friendly. Visit!

Service here was decent however I wish the avocado toast had a little more avocado otherwise it was really tasty. The space is small and a bit dim. There's seating inside and a little seating outside. Overall, I'd come back here to try their drinks and I recommend this coffee shop if you're ever on Capitol Hill.

Been here multiple times already and it is my new favorite cafe!! Got their pistachio latte and strawberry mint shake and it was incredible. Smooth coffee and very refreshing mint drinks. Service and ambiance is also amazing. Will be coming here often!

The most delicious panini and the most delicious latte. It was so interesting with orange flavor. Loved it. And the vibes are immaculate. The nicest people too and service is top notch.

Mintish Coffee House has such a warm and welcoming vibe. The drinks are perfectly balanced you can taste the quality in every sip. The staff are friendly, fast, and make you feel at home. It's the perfect spot to relax, study, or meet friends. Definitely one of the best cafés in Seattle

Really good pistachio latte and helpful and friendly staff. Glad to have them in the neighborhood

Excellent latte, pastries are amazing with unique flavors and made in house! Cozy & welcoming, will definitely go back.

Everything was amazing! Great hospitality too, don't miss the desserts! We had the pistachio latte and date latte and both were fantastic

Came here with a friend and ordered a Levantine latte. This was hands-down the best latte I'd ever tasted. For folks who like their espresso drinks flavorful but not terribly sweet, this is the place for you. The baristas were very attentive, greeted each customer, and made sure that their order was done just the way they liked it (toppings, flavors, etc.). And what a cute cafe! Will be back for more delicious, nutty lattes!

i love that this is the first levantine coffee shop in WA! the staff was SOO friendly, welcoming, and helpful this place is popular, so it was quite full on a sunday afternoon when i went, but i was able to find a seat easily patrons were there all day until closing, some working on laptops and reading, others socializing the seating in the cafe consists of regular tables and chairs, high counter tables, and a comfy corner with pillows there is also outdoor seating and additional tables in an indoor hallway outside of the cafe yes you can technically find street parking, but it was pretty hard for me, so i paid $6 to park in a nearby garage via spothero (a parking app) there is parking right in front of the cafe if you're lucky they have easily accessible outlets for charging i got the pistachio latte and turkey basil sandwich the pistachio latte is "not too sweet" (i like sweet, but i know some people like not too sweet) i specifically liked how with every sip, i got some crushed pistachio nuts too, so the nuts weren't just on the top of the foam i'll be back for sure - i recommend everyone to check out this cafe!

This is my new favorite cafe in the neighborhood. I love love the spiced rose chai and the demasc latte and what makes the cafe extra cozy are the folks behind the counter. I can always expect the best customer service when i walk in. 10/10!

The baristas are lovely, the coffee is delicious, and their flavors are unique and interesting. Such a great addition to the neighborhood!

Great atmosphere , friendly staff, and yummy drink and food options. I'd definitely recommend to anyone needing a place to do homework or online work, or to someone needing to grab a quick drink or bite.

Lovely new coffee shop. The interior is well designed and thoughtful, and even more importantly, the coffee and tea and snacks are delightful. My friends and I shared a zatar croissant and "mintish cake" which was a lemon cake with some mint in it. Both were fantastic. We also got a few different lattes, I particularly liked the cardamon latte. Great service and a good experience overall. Highly recommended.

Delicious food and such fun lattes, warm ambiance and kind and attentive staff. So happy to support this business!
