Seattle's Best Coffeee is pretty solid. You don't see too many freestanding ones though. The only freestanding one that I've been to was in Seattle. I do enjoy their mocha latte and regular coffee. A lot of Seattle's Best's are in Borders and airports.

I personally think that this coffee tastes a little smooth while still being bold which makes it a little better than starbucks. However it doesn't have the same kick. I had some of this stuff at a boarders book store and I'd have to say if the actual chains are even half as good in seattle, I need to take a trip to the city of grunge and coffee shops.

Seattle's best is by far my favorite coffee.

Its owned by Starbucks now but I like it better.

I drink only Javaberry. I prefer it because it has the unique taste and natural aroma.

Lotsa hype by clever West Coast marketing types. Green Mountain in Vermont is just as good. Just no coffee bars to hype it.

i get lost out here in the east looking for good coffee - SBC will always be my fave - i have found it at a local cinnabon - and have shared with my new co-workers - even the ones who don't like coffee much like SBC -just got to teach them to leave the sugar and milk out - i go home once a year to Seattle and bring back at least 4 lbs each trip- mom sends me care packages too - now that makes me a true fan - this is the don't leave home without it kind of coffee

One that was located near my home just closed down. It's a shame, too, because the quality of their beverages is head and shoulders above Starbucks. Major caffeine rush plus good taste.

Good stuff, have never been to a store though...Not sure where any are based...Have had it at airports though...

This is some strong ass coffee. Not many locales here in the midwest, though.

They live up to their name. Way, way better than Starbucks.

This is good coffee.

Very good but not great. It's most definitely a whole lot better than Starchunks.

I'm referring to the bags, not the coffee. I have been trying to email these comments directly, but addreess on bag doesn't seem to work. I buy the procuct in whole bean form at Raplph's Market in Sherman Oaks, CA approximately every two weeks - 1/2 to 3/4 lb, and grind it there into Seattle's Best bags provided. I store it in the bags, inside of a freezer bag, at room termperature. After a few uses, the bag begins to separate - sides and bottom, so that coffee is leaking all over the place. (try to convince your wife that you have thoroughly cleaned up the mess). Those are my constructive comments. Joe Friedman joefriedman1@cs.com

Had a Seattle's Best Coffee for the first time recently and was impressed. I would put them in the same league with Starbucks if not better. Highly recommend you try it!

Average. Better than Starbucks, so they're not entirely misleading in naming the chain.

Finding Seattle's Best coffee is the only problem I have found with it. Bring back the online ordering.

'tis a far, far better cup than that crap over at Starshmucks. It costs a wee bit less, and is served with a ton less attitude, too.

Best coffee of all the chains!

Something funky going on with their roasting process - don't care for the taste. Workers do know how to make the coffee.

its okay .. and its a perfect match with Cinabon .. but should focus on the seats its quite uncomfortable ! they dont have that much of varaities though that's why its gets 3 ! yeah whoz next

I have been to many coffee shops and I liked most of them, but not for the quality of the coffee. I generally like a place because it is nice to hang out in, or they have funky flavorings. Not so with SBC- they make serious coffee. I went to Seattle once and let me tell you they have a coffee shop on just about every other corner. By far of all the ones I went to SBC had the best coffee. That's when I became a caffeine junkie.
