Café Hagen owner, Maria Beck, settled in Seattle from Scandinavia with a passion to share the best elements of hygge - the cozy contentment and well-being you feel from enjoying the simple things in life.

For Maria, this cozy simplicity translates into specialty coffee and home-baked pastries enjoyed in an elegant, yet inviting neighborhood space.

An oasis of Scandinavian coziness in the uber-busy South Lake Union, Café Hagen brings the casual yet refined, elegant yet subtle charm of Copenhagen to Seattle. 

The relaxing ambiance of Café Hagen is complete with Scandinavian-influenced coffee from Hagen Coffee Roasters (with an exclusive coffee line roasted only for Café Hagen), Scandinavian style food choices, snack delicacies, and hand-picked fine wine and beer selections.

The food delicacies – from our family Scandinavian pastry recipes, to the homemade sauces, to the made-to-order brunch selections – showcase Café Hagen's passion to deliver a unique, indulgent and European experience with a humble and casual Northwest approach.
