Tod was awesome! Very impressed with his well rounded knowledge of area, food places, and coffee! I highly recommend this tour!
Great tour! Tod is extremely knowledgeable - everything you need to know about coffee, interspersed with coffee culture in Seattle. Also has an extensive list of places to eat and drink coffee around the city. A local who is excited to share his knowledge and experiences.
Tod was ah-mazing. The love for his city is apparent, and he offered great recommendations. Loved learning about coffee. Would recommend to friends and family. Thanks Tod!
Tod was a very knowledgeable tour guide. You could see his passion for coffee, Seattle, Seattle coffee, fair trade and social responsibility. The progression of the tasting was very nice and the ending tasting was the perfect delicious end (and a coffee order I never would have ventured to try in my own). Tod is a fast talker (which I appreciate because I’m a fast listener) but if that isn’t your thing, he is open to slowing it down.
Tod's very enthusiastic about Seattle. The cafe selections are quite unique, overall it's a great experience.
I thought I knew a bit about coffee before going on this tour, but I learned so much and Tod was an incredible tour guide.
Todd was great!! Thank you much....
Tod was a phenomenal tour guide for our private coffee tour in Seattle’s Capital Hill neighborhood. He offered insightful history and context about the city, the neighborhood, and Seattle’s coffee-and-community culture. We learned so much from him about coffee origins, growing, and roasting. His tour blended coffee knowledge, city history, and lifestyle history which was especially helpful for us as first-time visitors to Seattle. He was easygoing, highly engaging and personable, and provided information at an energetic pace that did not feel rushed in any way. He was willing to entertain all of our questions. His tour was equally fun for the teen and the adults in our family.

Erin was knowledgeable and friendly. She helped us understand the history of coffee in Seattle while we tasted three distinct types of locally-roasted coffee. We also learned about Jimi Hendrix and the culture/history of the Capitol Hill Area. This was an outstanding tour and highly recommend it—great value with an excellent guide.
