A Visit to Leon Coffee House

A Nutella Mocha with latte art from Leon Coffee House in the U-District.

I happened to be in the U-District getting some work done on my car, so I decided to check out Leon Coffee House. I'd heard fun things about this spot, located next to the Neptune Theater. When my husband and I walked in, the place was lively with students on study breaks from the UW. The aesthetic was on point with pink walls, cute signage, and lots of selfie opts for posting online.

My husband and I got a Nutella Mocha. They do super cute latte art at Leon Coffee House, so I was excited. They also serve you a cookie with your coffee, which was a nice touch. They have an upstairs with seating and lots of tables on the main floor. I had fun posing with the various props.

The coffee tasted rich and just like a Mocha should be. Then we had to quickly finish it when we realized we'd forgotten to purchase parking. They also serve food like cake, waffles, and sandwiches. But people go for the adorable coffee art and overall vibe of the space!
