Project Dote Bringing Good Coffee and Community Support to the Heart of Bellevue

Dote Coffee Bar in Bellevue stands out as a unique venue that pairs excellent coffee with gourmet chocolate, all while fostering community connections. Founded by Sarah Doud, who has extensive experience in the coffee industry, Dote collaborates with master chocolatier Chef Ewald Notter to create delightful menu offerings. The onset of the pandemic prompted Dote to launch Project Dote, a program designed to deliver coffee and pastries to essential workers, effectively raising $6,000 in donations to support the community. This initiative not only provided a much-needed service during challenging times but also helped Dote maintain connections with its customers. Doud believes that coffee plays a crucial role in bringing people together, a sentiment echoed in the establishment's mission.

With doors now reopened, Dote Coffee Bar continues to innovate and serve its patrons while prioritizing community engagement. They invite locals to experience their signature drinks, including the Honey Dark Mocha and Tumeric Ginger Latte. Dote's commitment to quality coffee and community support highlights the importance of local businesses in enhancing the vibrancy of Bellevue.
