What's it like to visit at a Starbucks Reserve Roastery?

At a normal Starbucks, you arrived at their doorstep, order some coffee, wait, and then you can sip some coffee but do you want to get the most out of your Starbucks experience? Visit a Starbucks Reserve Roastery, that's why!

Setting them apart from your normal Starbucks, a Starbucks Reserve Roastery offers the rarest, most extraordinary coffees crafted exclusively in a place like this. You can think of it like visiting a fancy car factory where you can see an ultra-expensive car being handcrafted by artisans while you watch them assemble their masterpiece.



The first ever Starbucks Reserve Roastery was opened in Seattle's Capitol Hill neighborhood since the end of 2014, just nine blocks from the first Starbucks store in Pike Place. In addition, Shanghai and Milan had their own Starbucks Reserve Roastery and in the future, they will open ones like this in New York City, Tokyo, and Chicago. But in the meantime, I went to the first ever Starbucks Reserve Roastery to see what's what.

Not only you will be greeted with the biggest servings compared to your usual Starbucks hangout but you get to see the process on how their globally-sourced coffee are roasted, processed, and produced to deliver the master stroke of a coffee you are seeing it now.



Seeing how its made is like you're entering the factory minus the no-photography regulation. As a matter of fact, people like you and me are having a guilty pleasure to learn Starbucks' secrets to success but don't worry. Nothing's stopping you to experience the tips of the trade that flourished Starbucks into one of the fastest-growing coffee shops in the world right now.



There is a sculpture of the one as seen on the Starbucks logo on display.



Aside from offering some of the rarest and most exclusive coffee blends you can only find at the Reserve, you can chow down on some pastry such as those delicious breads at their Princi bakery corner of the Reserve. You are going to love the selection of pastries in store when you get there.



Visitors can sample some of the most unique blend of coffee or espresso of any kind and in case you brought kids, you can order them some ice cream. Because most of the coffees, be it hot or cold, served at the Reserve are so unique, your fervent wish after sampling them is you might be visiting this place again for some more. That's the magic of the Starbucks Reserve Roastery because their blends are somewhat between Rare, Epic, and Legendary.

When you're happy with your visit at Seattle's Starbucks Reserve Roastery, you can buy some souvenirs from the trip, knowing that you've visit a very exclusive Starbucks with some of the most exclusive coffee blends you won't find anywhere else.



This visit to the Starbucks Reserve Roastery reminded me that I have gotten the chance to experience the ultimate Starbucks experience coffee lovers will enjoy. From their tips of the trade, their exclusive offerings, and such classy atmosphere, it's no doubt coffee lovers found their little Holy Land on their taste buds.

So, if you are spending your time in Seattle, be sure to check out the Starbucks Reserve Roastery at Capitol Hill if you have time. You will be glad that you are part of the ultimate Starbucks experience.

The Seattle Starbucks Reserve Roastery is located at 1124 Pike St., Capitol Hill, Seattle, WA, and it's open everyday from 0700 to 2300 hours. In a general 12-hour format, that's 7:00 AM to 11:00 PM. Thank you for understanding and enjoy!
