MAK Daddy Coffee Roasters | Downtown Yakima

downtown yakima doesn't have a lot of independent roasters doing this seriously. mak daddy coffee roasters on north 1st street is one of the few places in the valley where the roasting happens close enough to matter, and you can feel that in how the coffee actually tastes, not just in how it's described on a menu board. union gap and yakima blend into each other out here, and this spot sits right in that working-class, unpretentious stretch of downtown where nobody's performing anything. the local reputation is real and it's been built slowly. if you're anywhere near north 1st on a weekday morning, the drip coffee is the honest move.
