About us

Upwell is West Seattle's reliable spot to drop in seven days a week to find something delicious to eat and drink. During the day we have a dynamic coffee program with house made pastries, breakfast, and lunch plates. To keep it fresh and interesting we always feature two roasters to brew espresso, pour overs, and specialty drinks from. Our core partner is Herkimer Coffee from Seattle's Phinney Ridge neighborhood who has been sourcing green beans directly from farmers around the globe since 2003. They have been an advocate for sustainable pricing and quality since the beginning and we couldn't think of a better group of folks to support, and the coffee's really good too!

Our current featured roaster Second Love Coffee Roasters is a small-batch specialty coffee roastery and café located in Des Moines, Washington. Founded in 2023 by Philip Mendoza and Scott Braaten, the business is built on a "community first" philosophy. Come try their Colombia El Vergel Roast with notes of blueberry, hazelnut and tangerine in the Horchata Cortado or any of our seasonal drinks!

Come nighttime the space transforms into a wine bar that has fifteen+ wines by the glass, vermouth cocktails, and a full dinner menu Tuesday - Saturday from 3:00 - 10:00 PM.

Sunday & Monday drop in for a glass and a slightly paired down food menu until 5:00 PM.

Coffee, pastries and daytime menu available everyday from 8:00 - 3:00 PM.

Tasting Tuesdays are drop in from 5-7 and we'll have a rotating lineup of killer wines and good looking winemakers pouring them to answer all your questions.
