I was first turned on to Vivace by a friend when I moved to Seattle. Although I don't live on Capitol Hill, I make a trek over to Vivace with surprising regularity. It has also become a stop on my 'Seattle City Tour' for guests that are visiting Seattle.
Their coffee is incredibly good, it seems to possess a level of refinement that you just don't get at other coffee shops. Even guests that don't appreciate good coffee can appreciate the latte art that is carefully created on the top of each latte. This location is also adorned with photos of different and unique latte art.
