Seattle Coffee Company was first started in London by a husband-and-wife team – Alley and Scott Svenson – who were inspired by their experience with specialty coffee brands in their hometown of Seattle. Seattle Coffee Company was brought to South Africa by best friends Pete and Barry, two South African locals.
Their first local store opened in Cavendish Square, Cape Town, in November 1997 and has since become a popular destination for coffee enthusiasts. Seattle Coffee Company is known for its commitment to quality coffee and offers a variety of coffee blends, espresso-based drinks, and other beverages.
To pair with their coffee, they have put together a food offering in stores that stands shoulder-to-shoulder with their coffee – hand-made and artisanal snacks for which you will repeatedly come back, The Way You Like It.
The chain has numerous locations across South Africa, often in shopping malls and other high-traffic areas. The ambiance in Seattle Coffee Company shops is typically relaxed, making it a favored spot for coffee on the go and casual meetings.
