BIZNOTE: New West Seattle Junction coffee-and-pastry shop Panterelli opens

Thanks to Dwight for the tip! The coffee/pastry shop that Pizzeria Credo proprietor Jacques Nawar has long had in the works next to Junction Plaza Park is open. Panterelli is all about choux pastry – cream puffs, for example.

This is not the proprietor’s first venture into sweetness – he also operated Naked Crepe for a few years in the northernmost commercial space demolished for the under-construction mixed-use building. The 4210 SW Alaska space where Panterelli is now open was previously Western Jewelry and Coin Exchange (known casually as “the watch shop”). Panterelli’s hours for starters are Wednesdays through Sundays, 8 am-3 pm.

I had a hazelnut passion fruit cream puff – incredible! And the best cappuccino I’ve ever had, hands down!

I wouldn’t complain if he decided to add crepes to the menu at this new coffee shop as well! Nothing quite goes so well with coffee as a nice delicious warm crepe and I don’t know of anywhere in W Seattle who makes crepes currently.

Italian choux is fantastic! I was wandering one day in Courmayeur, Italy, where I lived at the time, and saw a linen-lined basket of what I thought was dirty and dusty large fungi sitting outside a shop. They turned out to be delicious creme-filled pastries. It would be great if this new place made cannoli. Now we’ll have both French and Italian pastries covered in the Junction, and hopefully real Italian cappuccino as well…

The early birds get the “choux.” I showed up a bit after two, and there was a “Sorry, sold out” sign on the door.

Until things build up a little bit, you want to be here early! Line out the door this morning and Jacques is already running low. If you can make it while supplies are in, it’s well worth it. My partner and I were blown away by the incredible texture and flavor. Promises are being thrown out that more food will be available in the coming weeks to accommodate the hungry customers!
