Have Your Next Meeting at the Roastery

By now, youve probably oohed and aahed your way through the Wonka-esque coffee wonderland that is the new Starbucks Reserve Roastery & Tasting Room on Capitol Hill (1124 Pike St.). But you can still impress friends and colleagues by renting the Coffee Library Room for your next business meeting, small party or luncheon, especially since Tom Douglas Serious Pie contributes to the menu. The 360-square-foot glass-walled room is a sleek, aromatic space that feels clubby thanks to more than 200 books about coffee yet also in the thick of things. The table seats 12, but theres also some balcony space for late arrivals. Rates are $150 an hour, $400 for three hours and $700 for an all-day (eight-hour) event. Inquire at [email protected].
