Café Hagen (Café and Roastery)

Cafe Hagen Uptown sits at 800 5th Avenue North in South Lake Union, the cafe and roasting facility for Hagen Coffee Roasters. Maria Beck founded Cafe Hagen in December 2019 around Scandinavian and Danish bakery traditions, with locations now in Uptown, downtown, and Queen Anne. The Uptown room doubles as the production roastery, and the team has competed in the United States Barista Championship under the Hagen Coffee Roasters name. The bakery program runs cardamom buns, kanelsnegl, and other traditional Scandinavian pastries beside the coffee bar. Espresso is dialed for clarity. Drip rotates through the house roasts. On weekend mornings the room fills with families walking up from Seattle Center and Queen Anne regulars who came for cardamom and stayed for the room. Order a kanelsnegl with a cortado if you came for the Scandinavian morning Hagen built. Order a single-origin pour-over if you want to taste what the roasting team is dialing for competition.
