Zoka Coffee Roasters and Tea Company - Kirkland

Award-winning coffee roasters in Seattle, WA with 3 locations across Seattle.

In 1996, University of Washington Alumni Jeff Babcock created Zoka Coffee Roasters and Tea Company. Located at the intersection of Central Ave. and Lake Washington Blvd., this vibrant café has become a hub of activity and community, open seven days a week. Thanks to the small-batch roasting of Zoka coffees, homemade baked goods and hand-sourced teas, it’s often hard to find a seat. Now with the third Zoka Coffee Roaster & Tea House, Kirkland Zoka, customers have recently been given another chance to settle in with a Zoka cappuccino and scone.

The cornerstone concept of the Zoka Coffee Roasters and Tea Company is a focus on our local community. Where other coffeehouses may hurry customers out the door, we at Zoka invite you to stay, and feel honored when you decide to settle in with us for a whole afternoon (that’s why we tempt you with free wireless Internet).
Where we regard our customers with warmth and respect, we consider our coworkers as close as family. Each Zoka partner brings new creativity, ideas and joy to the table, thereby continuing what has become a grand tradition of diversity and originality at Zoka.

We treasure the bonds we share with customers and fellow baristas, and we hope you’ll join us in growing our family bigger still.
