What Jeffrey Bade likes about Emerald City Coffee:
I've been a huge and enthusiastic supporter of Brian's and Emerald City for around 10 years now. The coffee, food, and service are consistently excellent. Keep up the great work, EC! View all feedback.

What William Southerland doesn't like about Emerald City Coffee:
That said, I’ll likely continue to visit because it’s conveniently located on my commute, and I truly appreciate their commitment to the community. I just hope they'll consider adjusting their espresso preparation so that the drinks have a brighter flavor and less of an acrid taste. View all feedback.

Great strong cups of drip coffee at very competitive pricing esp if you can answer the trivia question and get 25c off.
