"URL looks less like a coffee shop and more like those fully furnished model rooms at CB2 that make you feel bad about your home's interior design. It is indeed a coffee shop, with macchiatos, avocado toasts, and all. The hygge vibes of natural wood and abstract paper lanterns make for an incredibly zen work session, as long as there's a seat available among the single long table and couple of small ones. Be sure to order the Walk To Work, a rich iced latte topped with a soft mound of cinnamon-dusted whipped cream." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley
"Sometimes, iced coffee is simply a means to shock yourself awake. And sometimes, it's a means to consume dessert at any time of the day. URL's Walk To Work falls in the latter camp, as an iced latte topped with velvet-soft whipped cream and a shake of cinnamon. Each time you knock some back, you get a rush of cold coffee with the occasional whipped cream glob, and we can vouch that it's perfect for walking to work." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley
"If you're looking for somewhere to get work done and/or phenomenal espresso in First Hill, URL is an oasis in a neighborhood full of hospitals. It has CB2 energy—the hygge-ness of natural wood and abstract paper lanterns make for a relaxing work session. Regardless of whether you're hanging out here or not, be sure to order the Walk To Work, a rich iced latte topped with a soft mound of cinnamon-dusted whipped cream." - aimee rizzo, gabe guarente
"This small cafe on First Hill is a designer’s dream. The tables and shelves and sleek and contemporary, the stools made from skateboard decks add a note of punkish whimsy, and the light-filled space feels bigger than it really is. URL doesn’t do a lot of custom drinks but makes its own sweet cream, and whether that cream is lathered on an iced coffee or dropped into a shot of espresso, it transforms an already good coffee into a day-defining highlight. Speaking of day-defining, if you can find an open seat here, get the tomato ricotta toast — fancy toast may be why millennials can’t afford homes, but who wants a home, anyway?" - Harry Cheadle
"This slick-looking cafe on Broadway serves up a smoky, earthy cold brew made with a glass dripper. If you’re walking to work be sure to order the, uh, Walk to Work, an iced latte with cinnamon-dusted whipped cream that will make you want to skip work. If you’re hanging out, yo get to admire the bright shop from wife and husband duo Zoey Jung and Ethan Choi — the latter used to be a furniture collector, which comes through in the attention to design detail and meticulously crafted beverages." - Rachel Hopke, Harry Cheadle, Eater Staff
