I heard about this place from a friend. On a shopping trip to Bellevue Square mall, I made a detour to find this place. It is tucked away in Lincoln Square South. Tl;Dr: worth the effort of walking through all those sky bridges and trying to find the place!! The cafe is lovely! It has a great vibe about it! I tried their daily filter coffee and found it quite flavorful! They’ve a lot of Italian coffee options and I love their pastry/dessert offerings!! They’d some delicious looking croissants! I tried the passion fruit panna cotta and it was… heavenly!! The cream was sweet and so Vanilla! 😋 And, the contrasting tart of the passion fruit jelly topping the cream was yummy! I liked the size of it too! Any more of it may have made it too sweet! If you’re around Bellevue Square or Lincoln Square - definitely check this cafe out!!

Another coffee shop in Seattle? To gain a foot hold here is difficult. Remember Starbucks? Anyway, Dote is unique. It sources many of its beams from Africa. The hazelnut mocha and the honey black mocha are unreal. So smooth and satisfying. Still have a few bucks left in the wallet, just spend that on the almost crossant. It’s expensive…. but it is good.

Hands down the best iced latte I have had in my life. The espresso glides through the rich milk and comes together beautifully. If I worked near here, I would be getting my coffee here every single day. It's just too good. There's also ample seating and a new mini food court beside it, which also has a lot of cool choices. There are also restaurants in the same area if you want a sit down place.

Overpriced & overrated like anything in Bellevue honestly very disappointed. I usually go to Dilettante Mocha Café at Bellefield Office Park near by, will stick to that. I’m a huge coffee connoisseur and this mocha taste like pure milk. I’ve asked for 2%. I don’t wanna be one of those people complaining but when you’re paying that much for a cup of coffee in such an expensive area better be the best damn coffee I’ve ever had!

Delicious, but pricey. In my opinion it's absolutely worth stopping by. The coffee options look relatively simple, but the flavor is great. The staff are very friendly and helpful.

I am delighted to write a heartfelt, five-star review for my absolute favorite local coffee bar in Bellevue. For years, this haven of flavor and ambience has remained a constant source of joy in my life. Typically I love visiting this coffee stop on a Sunday afternoon! And every time the baristas are super friendly. Every visit has been guaranteed with really good quality coffee and an atmosphere that exudes warmth and comfort. Highly recommend!

Incredible coffee, i tried the madagascar vanilla latte, also ask for the temperture of the coffee at 80º and they just did it perfect I would said the best coffee i tried in seattle. The barist did a really good job. She know what she was doing. The personal really nice. For sure coming back

A nice sweet shop after a good dinner in the surrounding area. I bought a set of truffles and an ice-cold chocolate coffee it's delicious. This place also provides free ice-cold water. The beautiful server is very friendly and helpful. If you're in the downtown Bellevue area give Dote Coffee a visit. You’ll like it. Thanks for reading this review. Please follow me to good places to eat and fantastic places to visit on YouTube under LEE THOEUN.

Grabbed a Cortado that tasted just okay. I came here with higher expectations that the coffee would be great since it’s a coffee bar. The service and Atmosphere were nice though.

My friend and I went to Dote and ordered latte this morning. Since my friend is pretty into latte art so I asked the barista if she could make her cup a latte art. The barista was so kind and made gorgeous latte art for both of us! She kicks off a beautiful weekend for us :)

Don’t get Starbucks but go to Dote. Great service and great atmosphere. This place is surprisingly amazing.

Plenty of seating! And wow the coffee is fantastic. It is stronger than I'm used to and I got the white chocolate vanilla latte. Absolutely love it. The decor is very inviting and there's people working on their computers while enjoying their coffee.

Super random but this place has the best panna cotta in the Greater Seattle area! A bit pricey ($8), but worth it imo. Their staff is also super nice!

Love Dote and I’m there every other day. Their signature hazelnut milk mocha is the absolute best! Though I wish they hadn’t reduced the ganache due to cost cutting..

We found this place by coincidence because we wanted to avoid walking through the cold outside. This place has unusual espresso machines which caught our eye and is somewhat of a mix between bar and coffee shop. We've had their classic affogato and whiskey double dark. Give their boozy coffee a try, it's a nice change from your average coffee shop and the espresso was better than expected, too.

The warmed almond croissants are delicious，vanilla Latte using the accompanying cup is average, the table has a little pastry crumbs.

Nice little coffee shop inside the Lincoln Square. Since it's tucked away, it's a quiet space to enjoy the coffee and chat (at least when I visited). Their chai tea latte tastes bit different from Starbucks', which I liked! It's less sweet and stronger chai flavored.

Nice selection of pastries and coffee. You can also get boozy coffee here if you’re needing that extra boost haha Their Ganache Signature drinks are all very tasty. Fast, friendly and efficient service.

Loved their pastries and treats - I tried the pistachio macaron and was pleasantly surprised that it was filled with ganache and not buttercream (which I haven’t come across often in pistachio flavored desserts) and it wasn’t too sweet either! Probably my favorite macarons in the Bellevue area. Their assorted chocolates were also great! Can’t say too much on their drinks since I’ve only ever tried the iced matcha lattes, but it was surprisingly good (enough for me to keep getting them every time) and not as sweet as I’d expected. Usually the barista asks if you want a flavor/sweetener with it, and vanilla is perfect to go with it. Service is sometimes great, sometimes so-so. Usually the service is very friendly and attentive, but a couple times we’d see a barista who just did not seem happy to be there at all - but it’s not in any ways a dealbreaker. The space is modern and beautiful, and there are plenty of seats both in and around the cafe.

Our caramel latte and chocolate croissant was delish delicious! Place was very clean and quick service!

A hidden gem of decadent coffee drinks! The chocolate - both in various drinks and in the confections - was rich and delicious, and the espresso well paired with it. Perfect for a treat for yourself when you'd like a unique pick-me-up.

I had almond milk latte. It was really good. The first sip had a little bitterness, not too bad. Following that was rich and strong flavor of natural sweetness. No acidity. Not smoky. One of the best latte I have had. The staff were friendly.

Tried here on a trip to Seattle. They have great coffee and friendly staff. Convenient location near our hotel.

BEST COFFEE EVER! We are regulars and go out of our way to get their coffee few times a week. When we lived closer we used to go daily. They use house made syrups and excellent quality coffee beans. Their coffee is one of the smoothest I've had to this day. Pastries are also exceptional.

Hip Coffee spot. One of the best coffees I've had and I travel quite a bit so that says a lot. They make their own syrups, judging by the flavor and the bottles with actual vanilla beans in them. I bought their ganaches to take home when I left. We're enjoying them very well still.

Absolutely sensational! My gal and I embarked on an extraordinary journey at this coffee haven. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted by the most charming and efficient baristas who set the stage for what would become an unforgettable experience. The seasonal coffee was an enchanting masterpiece, steamed to utter perfection, with just the right amount of sweetness that danced upon our taste buds like a symphony. Meanwhile, my dear friend indulged in a steamed chai tea latte that struck the perfect balance between sweet and spicy, igniting her senses with every sip. Our initial delight led us to go for a splendid round two, where we savored a heavenly chocolate cookie that boasted an otherworldly flavor, so magnificent that I implore you to experience it for yourself. And oh, the iced matchas, a divine concoction with the precise harmony of natural sweetness and a milk-to-matcha ratio that could only be described as superb. But the magic didn't stop there. The chocolate in that cookie was so mind-blowingly exquisite that I couldn't resist the allure of round three. A small mocha, as expected, did not disappoint and left me in awe of this coffee oasis. Every visit to this place is a delightful journey through the realms of flavor, an enchanting experience that will have you coming back for more. Don't just take my word for it; let your taste buds be the judge. An extraordinary adventure awaits, my friends!
