Queen Anne Ave’s ‘caffeine corner’ turned yoga corner?

August 24th, 2009 · 15 Comments

Queen Anne residents know caffeine corner from the scent of espresso beans roasting a mile off. No matter which coffee houses open up shop there, the intersection of Queen Anne Ave. N and Boston Street is always brimming with cafes ready to supply that much-needed caffeine fix. The current residents of caffeine corner are Starbucks, Pete’s Coffee & Tea, Teacup and Caffe Ladro (so it’s not right on the corner, but it’s just stone’s throw away – it still counts!).

Rumor has it that just a few doors down from caffeine corner the currently empty space at 2215 Queen Anne Ave. N is soon to be a yoga studio.

We haven’t confirmed this yet (we did a little snooping and questioned one of the guys working inside), but if this is in fact a yoga studio to be, it will make the third on the already coffee and yoga-laden corner.

Haute Yoga is just across the street at 2131 Queen Anne Ave. N, and although it’s the newbie in town (Haute just opened back in June), there’s often a crowd outside the door, yoga mats in hand, waiting for the next class to start.

Yogalife is also on this corner (at 8 Boston Street, right above Opal Bistro), and it has an edge-up on its two competitors – a 1,000 square-foot studio.

With three yoga studios on one corner, you’ll need four nearby choices for a post-workout caffeine boost!

We’ll keep you posted as we find out more.
