Morning Delight - This tour was an amzing way to drart my Saturday morning! Eric is a great tour guide. He's very knowledgeable of the history of the city and the marketplace. My favorite spot was Lands of Origin. Experiencing the hand roasting and listening to the story of families gathering around coffee for hours was delightful. You have to try the lentil sambusa. Other favorable stops on this tour included the authentic chai, mochi waffle, and Daisy's donuts.

Delightful and Insightful Morning at Pike Place Market - Chef Eric hosted our small group's visits to a fascinating selection of locally-owned shops, where we chatted with the proprietor while enjoying a delicious assortment of coffees, each paired with sweet and savory bites. Throughout, Chef Eric shared the history of Pike Place Market, the coffee trade, and each shop. A delightful morning enjoying and learning about coffee and Seattle. I highly recommend!

Coffee Crawl fun - Chef Eric was an excellent guide. We did the coffee crawl experience. Seeing the market wake up while drinking amazing coffee and eating freshly baked goods was a real treat. I highly recommend this experience. We left happily caffeinated and got excellent recommendations from Chef Eric for lunch. This was a fun way to see Seattle.

Fun, informative, delicious, and just a nice time! - We received a gift card for this tour from our son and his wife. They knew we love coffee and this tour was amazing! We've been going to Pike Place for 30 years and never done a tour before. Chef Eric was our tour guide and he did an amazing job! We started off at Anchorhead Coffee that had the very best cold brew plus a yummy scone! Honey Bunch of Oats Cold Brew was so good that we went back after the tour to buy some large bottles to take home. Chef Eric took us to a few more places: Indi Chocolate where he explained coffee origins and demonstrated a Chemex pour over brew plus we had a sample of chcolate bits cookie; Made in Washington store where we sampled coffee and some salmon spread; a Chai tea at Aditi Chai; waffle bites and thai iced tea at Hashtag Waffles a block away from market; mini donuts from Daily Dozen at the market; and Ethiopian coffee and a sambusa from an incredible place, Lands of Origin, where the owner demonstrated roasting coffee and explained how coffee was originated in Ethiopia. Eric answered all of our questions about the market, the Seattle food scene, and loads about coffee. All of the places were either in the market or just a block away. This tour was great for us locals, but there were a couple others from California that were visiting and this tour was great for them as well. And it was just a lot of fun! Felt very VIPish with Eric knowing all the owners and as we would walk into a place, they had everything set up for us to sample. Very efficient. Highly recommend to anyone you know that loves coffee, or just loves to sample new foods.

Coffee crawl - This is a must do. You get to experience the market before it’s open. Delicious variety of coffee shops and partake in an Ethiopian coffee ceremony. We toured with Eric and he was the best.
