Reviews for Uptown Koffee and Kafe in Milton, WA
Got a latte from the drive thru once and that was a pleasant experience. Came back a few weeks later, choosing the place because... it had indoor seating and I am training a new coworker for home health rehab services and we needed a meeting location. Iarrived and had my order taken by an anxious employee who appeared to be running around like a chicken with her head cut off.Ordered a latte and eggs benny, approximately $18, $23 after tip. I understand how flustering the service industry can be as Ispent 20 years in it. She disappeared for a few minutes, stating only one credit card machine was working. I was eventuallyshown to a table. My new coworker arrived a few minutes after I did and was met with hostility at the counter when he said hewas coming to meet me, wasn?t ordering anything. The owner came out and began yelling that she can?t just let people insidebecause she is not Starbucks, but a small business and we needed to understand why she would not let my coworker in. There is astanchion at the entrance that they will not open until you have ordered and they show you to your table that they select. Iasked the owner if I could just have my order to go, and she got flustered and eventually agreed to let my coworker in, but notwithout grumbling. He ended up ordering a drip coffee, they served him a cappuccino instead, he did not complain. He orderedscrambled eggs with cheese and toast. The cheese was unmelted on top of eggs that were whisked once in the pan, not reallyscrambled. My eggs Benny had good sauce which the owner reported she added more hollandaise since I had ordered 2 extra eggs.All 4 eggs were not poached but very over cooked, close to hard boiled eggs. We were there approximately an hour. There were 4people inside when we arrived and no one came in after us. When we went to leave, we were told we could not use the door weentered through- the door that is closest to the parking lot. Instead we were directed to exit at a door facing the Read more
Loved the atmosphere, food, smiles, and kindness! Has a down home feel, food was like being back at my great-aunts house on the... farm again. Had the Hen in a Nest BLT. DELICIOUS!! Can't wait to come back and try the Paulk next time! As if it couldn't getany better, LOVED my coffee!!!! Two thumbs up!!! Read more

A little pricey. A BLT with chips and a pickle is $18. That being said, it was pretty good! Coffee was decent. I like the... environment - they were putting out some cute Christmas decor when we were there that are for sell in the gift shop. Read more
Ordered an iced tea that was so bitter that we threw it out. My coffee was ok. Was met with attitude when I didn?t want to buy... the homemade pie. Ordered a slice of cake that must have been from the Stone Age; will probably suffer from dust lung for therest of my shortened life. Even warming it didn?t resuscitate it. Was told that I should check out the ?gift shop? that nowfills the cafe. Last time for me! Read more
Love love love this place! Everything we?ve tried so far here is delicious and made fresh. Fair scones are also made here but... imo way better. Owner Missy and staff are super friendly and professional. One of my favorite go to spots in the neighborhood. Read more
This is a quaint establishment. Been around for almost 5 years at the time we visited. Had the pleasure to meet Missy Feitz the... owner aka the chef in the kitchen. The place was clean from the parking lot all the way into the restaurant. The gift shop has alot of items are quirky and fun. One thing that caught my eyes was the Your Local Loco Moco (added spam, why not!) A very riskymove putting this item on the menu if not done right. We also ordered the Hen in a Nest BLT, Blended Caramel Frap, MangoStrawberry Twister and quickly upsold into getting their scone which was worth it. The warm, soft scone was a wonderful openingact to our breakfast. It wasn't too cakey nor overly sweet and full of blueberry flavor. The coffee and smoothie were fantasticbut the food came fast and hot. The dishes were neatly presented. The BLT has perfectly fried eggs in the center of the breadwith still runny yoke. Vegies were fresh and the whole thing was simply delicious. Frankly I was a bit nervous about the LocoMoco because we have had some bad ones even in Hawaii but to my surprise, they did everything perfectly from the runny yoke tothe use of the correct type of rice and cook it perfectly. Gravy was one of the best that I had ever tasted (I know it is onlybrown gravy but this is simply plate licking worthy). Balanced gravy consistency allows it to coat every morsel of rice. Lastlythe spam was fried just right. Any spam lovers would know the must for crisp skin and juicy center. This was our favourite dishof the day. In short, this establishment deserves my plate-licking ovation. Read more
It's ok in a pinch but I'm really not impressed with the coffee. I've tried 4 times to see if maybe it was just the barista.... However the lattes always come out weak and burnt. Bummer since it's so convenient and the staff is great. At least they haveother niches to draw in customers. Though I don't drink alcohol or eat out much. Read more
