Top Dead Center (Cafe) Seattle

The chorizo sandwich is stunning, mild and well seasoned it’s like nothing in Seattle, Bread is perfection. The roaster chosen for the Vietnamese iced coffee makes it (imho) the best in town, it’s so smooth and satisfying. If you’ve ever been put off by the overly sweet robusta kind in the past, try this! both are good, but this offers a smoother experience everyone should try. It’s a lovely local business with incredible food, and the egg tarts are unbelievably good. Give them a try!

Dropped into the new neighborhood coffee hangout. What a hidden gem with neighborhood character! The coffee was spot-on delicious. I learned that Andy, the owner, hand makes each delicious sandwich from fresh sliced ingredients on site. You MUST try the Portuguese egg tarts. YUM! Definitely coming back here. Looking forward to bringing my motorcycle down to embrace the shops roots.

Great tasting coffee! I also love their egg tart. Super nice vibe with lots of seating. Great service, highly recommend it, would come back.

Just moved from Kansas City, where Blip Coffee was our home away from home. So happy to find Top Dead that feels so similar. ♥️ Gorgeous and delicious, both the food and the coffee! 🛞🛞🛞🛞

New spot in town, nice atmosphere and the owner Andy is very chill. Motorcycle themed with meetups planned in the future. Had an empanada, and I have to say, I don't think I've had a better one in Seattle. Perhaps a bit unexpected from a motorcycle themed coffee shop in Seattle, but not unappreciated.

This place is great. The space is bright and welcoming. Great food and drinks. Love coming here on a Sunday afternoon and having a drink. There’s some outdoor seating if you want to sit in the sun. Highly recommend adding this to your local favorites!

Fun new spot in the neighborhood! Love the outdoor seating / side room that welcomes a nice breeze outside of the sun. Drinks were served quickly and you can tell a lot of thought goes into the choices served. Would love to see some GF options so I can try more food!

So excited that they’ve opened! Awesome coffee, delicious egg tarts, and cannot wait to come back for the sandos! Andy was so friendly and we hope it’s a new favorite neighborhood spot! :)

Really great local spot. Has two separate sections, one coffee shop area and one area for the bar. Got a vanilla iced latte and chicken empanada. They were both great and I'm very picky. Service was nice as well. I do wish the location wasn't right on aurora.. very busy and sometimes sketchy street for anyone not familiar with it.

Great tasting coffee! I also love their egg tart. Super nice vibe with lots of seating. Great service, highly recommend it, would come back.

Top Dead Center makes an enchanting mocha. Probably the best coffee I've had in my life. The tinned fish, marcona almonds, burrata, berries? Yes. Enjoy in their patio space, amongst motorcycles on comfy chairs. Perfection.

Great new little place. Great espresso, very delicious Portuguese custard tart. Owner seemed nice and happy to tell us about the new place. Will be stopping by again soon!

Great new place with delicious sandwiches. I'll go back for the Portuguese and Spanish sardines!
