The newest addition to Downtown Bremerton’s coffee scene, Café Omni feels like a breath of fresh air. With sunlight pouring in and its thoughtful design, this open space channels Seattle café energy while still feeling right at home downtown.
Their homemade cinnamon rolls are quickly becoming "the best I've ever have" among locals. Plus, they have plenty of smoothies, sandwiches, latte customization options, and vegan-friendly options on the menu.

📍 822 Burwell Street, Downtown Bremerton

A visit to The Coffee Oasis is about more than your morning cup, it’s also about investing in the health of our community. Every purchase supports this local nonprofit dedicated to supporting youth-focused programs, making this café a meaningful place to gather. Plus, they roast their own beans which you can buy and take home.
Inside, the space is warm and welcoming, with a variety of seating options designed for whatever your day calls for. Whether you’re meeting a friend, bringing the family, or settling into one of the oversized leather chairs with a good book, this café is a comfortable place to land.
📍 409 Pacific Ave., Unit 201, Downtown Bremerton
Vibe: Cozy • Creative • Family-Friendly • Downtown Core
Cups Espresso & Café is truly a downtown all-in-one. From coffee and espresso drinks to paninis, baked goods, milkshakes, soups, breakfast and lunch options, and even acai bowls! And their clever barista’s have a great time curating fun, pun and pop-culture worthy monthly drink special menus! (October's Menu included a crowd favorite: "Bella, Where the Hell Have You Been Mocha")
Located in the heart of Downtown Bremerton at 4th and Pacific, Cups offers a spacious interior that feels especially inviting during the winter months. The electric fireplace, shelves of board games, and relaxed atmosphere make it easy to stay awhile.
*Cups also proudly hosts the Downtown Bremerton Association’s monthly Team Bremerton meetings, reinforcing its role as a true community hub.
Fraiche Cup
📍 105 Washington Ave., Downtown Bremerton
Vibe: Family-Friendly • Ferry-Adjacent
Fraiche Cup is a reliable favorite for mornings on the go or mornings you want to slow down. Known for serving more than just coffee, this café offers fresh breakfast sandwiches alongside your favorite drinks.
With plenty of seating and a relaxed atmosphere (almost giving 'cottage core'), it’s an ideal place to work remotely, catch up with a friend, or simply enjoy a warm drink while waiting for the ferry. Its close proximity to the waterfront makes it a natural part of any downtown or commuting routine.
📍 80 Washington Ave., Downtown Bremerton

Hemlock Grove Café is a newer addition to Downtown Bremerton but quickly becoming a favorite stop for ferry commuters and locals alike. With an impressive range of options and customizations, the menu is designed to accommodate a wide variety of diets and flavor preferences.
Beyond coffee, Hemlock Grove shines as a creative space. The café houses locally made art and goods—everything from paintings and candles to cards and small gifts—with artists and makers keeping 100% of the profits. It’s a place where creativity and community naturally intersect.
📍 655 4th Street, Downtown Bremerton
Vibe: Walk-Up Only • Family-Friendly • No-Frills Classic
Located right across the street from the Burwell Gate (Park and Burwell) to the shipyard, this walk-up coffee stand has been a go-to for shipyard workers and early risers needing a reliable, quality cup to start the day. With breakfast burrito and sandwich options too!
Fast, friendly, and rooted in daily routines, Bremerton Grounds represents the working heartbeat of the city where coffee fuels long shifts, early mornings, and familiar exchanges between baristas and regulars.
