Now a Seattle coffee institution, Caffe Ladro opened our first location on Upper Queen Anne in 1994. People ask about the company name origin. Caffe Ladro is Italian for coffee thief. When we opened up right next to Starbucks, we intended to pinch their customers with the best Seattle coffee and staff we could find. Caffe Ladro in Lynnwood, Washingtone fuels area residents and commuters with excellent coffee, house-made pastries, and sustainably and ethically produced coffee. If you're in near 196th and Aurora in Lynnwood, we're likely the best coffee near you. We source our beans directly when possible, and roast our blends and micro-lots at our Seattle Queen Anne facility.
