In 2002 Jill Killen saw a need for a family-friendly, community space in the northeast Seattle neighborhood of Maple Leaf. Armed with a passion to provide quality food and coffee, Jill opened the beloved Cloud City Coffee on Roosevelt and 88th. Since it’s inception, Cloud City has evolved into the “town hall of Maple Leaf” with a following of regular customers who make each day feel like home. Since then Jill purchased El Diablo on Queen Anne and recently started Royal Drummer in Ballard. While her menus have expanded, and the coffee program has evolved, the mission and spirit to provide a place for Seattle to call home remains the same. Join our coffee conversation with Jill Killen as we discuss the Seattle coffee scene, her favorite at home coffee drinks and what it’s like to run three beloved coffee shops in the city of coffee.
