Ember Goods Opens Second Location in Olympia
On 4th Avenue

If you’re in Olympia and love a good local coffee spot, there’s a new location you might’ve already driven past.

Ember Goods has officially opened its second Olympia location at the historic Filling Station on 4th Avenue, expanding one of the city’s most recognizable local brands.
Operating as “Ember Goods at the Filling Station,” the new space brings a different kind of convenience to the lineup — while keeping the same identity people already know.
☕ A New Format, Same Local Brand
Unlike their original location, this new spot is designed for speed and accessibility.
The setup includes:
A drive-thru option
A walk-up window
A streamlined but expanded menu
Coffee, pastries, and grab-and-go items
It’s built to serve both commuters heading through 4th Avenue and locals looking for a quick stop just outside the downtown core.
⛽ A Historic Location Gets New Life
The Filling Station building itself adds character to the experience.
Originally built for automotive use decades ago, the space has been reimagined into a modern coffee stop while maintaining its recognizable structure — blending Olympia’s past with its current wave of small business growth.
It’s another example of how older commercial buildings are being repurposed across the South Sound.
📍 Why It Matters for Olympia
Ember Goods has already built a strong local following, and this second location reflects:
Continued demand for local coffee brands
Strategic expansion into high-traffic corridors
Confidence in Olympia’s growing population and daily activity
For customers, it means more convenience.
For the city, it signals healthy small-business growth.
🌱 A Growing Local Coffee Scene
Olympia has long been known for its independent coffee culture, and Ember Goods is part of that next generation of shops expanding beyond a single location.
Rather than outside chains dominating the market, local brands continue to scale — while keeping their identity rooted in the community.
