Great spot for a treat. The Crumpet Shop is adorable. The atmosphere is great and the crumpets are delicious. We had the salmon and cream cheese, one with egg and one with cucumber. We also had the house-made lemon curd crumpet which was my favorite. Try it!

The best crumpets I've ever had. They are truly remarkable. They also have free refills on the delicious tea. I walked by this place for 20 years without trying one. Such regret.

Never seen a crumpet before in my life. We only do biscuits down here in the south. But trying these handmade, butter smothered, tea treats open my eyes on a new delicious way to gain weight. Thank goodness Seattle is a walking town.

I found this shop 9 years ago and it was beyond amazing. I don't get to Seattle often but when my cousin and I planned a trip for a concert I told her we had to go here. We ended up going both mornings for breakfast because they crumpets are so buttery good. They have so many options, but you can also customize to your liking. The 1st morning I got egg ham and cheese while my cousin got pesto, ricotta and tomato. We spilt them so we could each try them. We DEVOURED them. The pesto tastes so fresh, the ricotta was perfect and brought all the flavors together. We wanted to get more but we decided to come back the next day. The next morning I got ham, cheese and pesto. I got the lemon and ricotta to go. My cousin got the pesto, tomato and ricotta again as well as ricotta and raspberry. The lemon curd wasn't too tart or sweet, it was the perfect texture. The ham and cheese and pesto tastes like an open faced grilled cheese. I wish I lived closer to this shop. The crumpets are made in house and you can watch them make them.

Absolutely the best breakfast ever! I had the egg, ham, and cheese crumpet, a large bowl of Grouts with currants, steamed milk, honey, and walnuts. The Grouts were amazing and the crumpet was in a class of its own. I also had the fresh made lemonade. There are plenty of stools along the wall inside. I could tell this is a favorite the locals. Well worth a try as it’s a short walk from many of the downtown hotels.

After years of wondering what a crumpet was, I finally found out in Seattle, of all places. The Crumpet Shop is pretty famous and has a street entrance on First Ave, so no hills to climb or go down to eat here. I got the smoked salmon cream cheese with fresh cucumbers, and it was light but still filling. Plus, endless tea and coffee refills! My boyfriend got a bowl of groats, which he liked – he did say it was a bit sweeter than he expected, so next time he asked them to skip the brown sugar. I'd totally recommend people stop by here if they're near Pike Place. A lot of other places get all the attention, but this spot deserves it just as much.

This place is a "must go" when we're in Seattle. Crumpets are sort of like English muffins, but thinner. The variety of choices are wonderful, sweet, savory, or spicy, and everything I've tried has been superb. It's not too much food, but it's worth it, plus you can walk around the market and have room for something else too! Seating can be limited as it's a smaller dine in space, so keep that in mind. Thankfully since it's not a ton of food people are ordering, the seats open up quickly even if the place is full when you arrive.

Crumpets are so very good and yet hard to find in the US. This place is a treasure! Their menu features a huge variety of savory and sweet crumpets. I ordered a Vermont, and it was divine. Along with that, I had their shop tea blend, which was quite good—milder than Earl Grey, and refreshing to start the day. Be aware that there is little seating inside. There may be a line, but they prepare the food fast.

I’ve been to Pike Place market many times, but this was my first time stopping at the crumpet shop. I have definitely been missing out! I ordered the Vermont with a small Matcha latte and it really hit the spot after a long drive from Portland. The staff seemed super cool, too. I can’t wait to come back and try a different crumpet!

First crumpet in my life and it doesn’t disappoint! Yumm! Grab the unlimited tea refills too and pause to enjoy the experience. I ate the basic butter and honey crumpet. And had 2 refills of tea as it was delicious and I was thirsty, haha. I’ll be back!
