There is little doubt that Seattle is perhaps the coffee capital of the world. At least that is where the revolution for specialty coffee started. To this day Seattle has some of the highest demand for coffee.

Two of the most popular Seattle coffee franchises are Seattle's Best Coffee and Seattle Drip Coffee Company. Seattle's Best Coffee is named because they won a competition in the early 1970s and were declared to have the best cup of coffee in the city.

Seattle Drip Coffee Company is a leader in drive-through coffee franchises.
