Situated on NW 54th Street, it draws in locals who appreciate both solid coffee craftsmanship and a cozy setting that isn’t overrun by weekend crowds.

The café stands out with a diverse menu that caters to many tastes: from classic espresso drinks like cappuccinos and Americanos to seasonal specialties like the brown sugar cinnamon cortado or an affogato for those wanting a touch of sweetness and texture. Their 8oz oat milk latte and egg nog latte hint at thoughtful dairy alternatives and festive options, appealing especially to those who enjoy a little creative twist in their cup. Pairing your drink with a coffee cake or a savory bacon and eggs with ham makes Woodland a good spot for a light breakfast or a midday break.

Those who appreciate a variety of flavors and accommodations (including vegan and gluten-free baked goods) will find Woodland’s offerings balanced between wholesome and inventive. The seasonal flavors like macadamia and rose hint at a subtle seasonal rhythm, keeping the menu feeling fresh without overwhelming choice.

All told, Woodland Coffee works well as a dependable, comfortable coffee shop where you can tune into your own pace — whether that’s a quick espresso before a big day or a slow sip accompanied by quiet conversation or solo focus time.

Had a gingerbread latte and a raspberry bar. Both were fantastic, will definitely be back! Loved the cozy quiet vibes too. Would be a great place to read a book or do some work

We were in the area dropping off our bikes for an end of season tune-up and decided to get some coffee. This place was close. So we decided to give it a try. The place was set up very nicely and kind of reminded me of several Portland coffee places. They had lots of different flavors to choose from and I got the pumpkin spice hot latte. We also, got a scone and was kinda surprised that they didn't offer any butter, jam or even to warm it up for us. I think they should at least offer something as the scone was pretty dry. Probably won't go back , which is ashame as the coffee was pretty good.

Came here at 630am for a quick coffee before heading to Mt. Rainier. So good I had to come back the next day. Excellent quick service as well.

We are visiting from Southern Indiana and stopped in on our way to hike in the North Cascades. The girl who was working was so nice and helpful. We got two coffees, two danishes and two sandwiches for our hike and everything was reasonably priced! We would 100% go back.

Great baristas. Comfortable atmosphere. Nice indoor as well as outdoor area. They have a fine selection of vegan, gluten-free and regular treats/baked goods. The coffee and tea they serve is delicious! Finally a place that had descent drip. Good hours too 7am-5pm.

This is a great little coffee shop. It has a nice layout with indoor and outdoor seating. The design is nice too with natural wood throughout. The place is nice and clean and the service was really good. We ordered a couple of latte coffees and a blueberry scone and enjoy all of them. Overall, thumbs up recommendation.

Awesome spot. Was here on a personal trip and I needed a spot work. Wifi was great, atmosphere was quite, parking was easy (parked just north on 14th Ave NW for free!), staff was amazing. Open on Sundays. Has outside seating. No doubt a secret gem! Aubrey was awesome!
