Ghost Alley Espresso is a coffee shop located at Seattle's Pike Place Market. The business is sited on Post Alley in the city's Central Waterfront district, in a space that previously served as a bathroom attendants' room. In 2015, Rosemary Behan of The National described Ghost Alley Espresso as a "gorgeous, almost miniature-sized one-off coffee shop that uses the high-tech Modbar system – allowing it to mimic any espresso machine in the world by changing the settings".[3]

According to Los Angeles Times, the business is a "hole-in-the-wall coffee joint".[4] Leslie Budewitz's 2013 fiction book Peppermint Barked: A Spice Shop Mystery describes Ghost Alley Espresso as a "hidey-hole carved from a former storage and rest station for Market vendors".[5]

Ghost Alley Espresso serves coffee drinks with an emphasis on unusual flavors such as "salty nut" and turmeric mochas. The shop has a small counter with a few stools,[6] and has served as a starting point for ghost tours.[7][8]

History

As of 2022, Michael Buchwald is the owner of Ghost Alley Espresso.[9] Previously, Mercedes Carrabba owned both Ghost Alley Espresso and Market Ghost Tours.[10][11] In 2014, Christopher Reynolds of Los Angeles Times said Carrabba converted "a 147-square-foot closet into this snug caffeine haven and tour-guide headquarters".[12]

In 2020, Carrabba read excerpts from her book Market Ghost Stories at Ghost Alley Espresso and other supposedly haunted locations at Pike Place Market.[13] Rachael Jones of Seattle Refined has said of the haunt: Шаблон:Quote

In 2013, Ghost Alley Espresso participated in the Post Alley Hooley, a "neighborhood party" presented by the business-and-resident group Post Alley Project.[14] The coffee shop was one of two in Seattle with a Modbar system as of 2015.[15] During the COVID-19 pandemic, the business accepted orders via the front window.[16]

Reception

Ghost Alley Espresso has been recommended in multiple editions of the Not for Tourists Guide to Seattle.[2] In 2017, Rebecca Mongrain of Seattle Refined said Ghost Alley served the city's best mocha.[17] Reviews in Eater, The Infatuation, and the Seattle Metropolitan have encouraged readers to visit Ghost Alley Espresso instead of the Original Starbucks.[18][19][16]
