Liberty Cafe - Renton

I just had a very lovely experience here. Debby is extremely friendly, welcoming and kind. The chai tea she made was absolutely incredible and the sandwiches and soup are also very delicious. She even let us pick out the music! We had great conversations and I feel that this place is not just a cafe but a very therapeutic experience. Businesses like these are so important for the community and I highly encourage anyone to try this place if they are in the area and what good food, good coffee, and a good experience.

Recent discovery for me, the owner was so welcoming, accomodating and kind. You can tell she really cares if you enjoy your drink. Prices are reasonable. The traditional macchiato convinced me that all the espresso drinks are definitely worth a try, and it's the best dirty chai we've had in the area. (She makes her own blend! There's definitely nothing from a box or microwave here! Definitely coming back as much as possible. The environment isn't for everyone but that's fine by me. I love that the cafe supports local artists and doesn't have that cold corporate feel. A true gem in Renton for sure.

If a hoarder had a coffee shop, it'd be this one. I don't understand the piles of furniture and random stuff everywhere... While it didn't seem dirty, it didn't seem exceptionally clean either. The piles of things behind the counter, a display cooler near the register full of plastic and junk, packaged food items for their menu tucked all over the place, and an ancient cooler full of God-knows-what hidden under some janky silver insulation didn't really bring a sense of confidence that our drinks would be good. Coffee was maybe a 3 out of 5 for me... Atmosphere is enough to keep me from returning.

Adding a bit more detail per owner's request. I came in on a Sunday morning to eat some breakfast and have coffee with friends. We ended up getting two breakfast sandwiches, a cup of soup, and two Americanos. The employee was helpful and willing make a breakfast sandwich even though they were out of sandwiches. It took a while to get our food. I think about 15 minutes. When we got there, there were no customers but people did start to come in when we were waiting for our food. The coffee and food was okay. The soup was a bit watery for butternut squash. Customer service was good, but food and drinks didn't seem to hit the mark. I will probably try and come back again.

The customer service was amazing. The lady was very helpful and kind. The drink was for my uncle and he liked it. The place was a bit crowded with a lot of stuff. It had too many things going on. The place we sat down was the only place I can see in the coffee shop that you can sit. It’s cozy but it is overwhelming at the same time. The music was really good. I will come back but not on everyday basis.
