Aimee Rizzo ofThe Infatuation wrote, "URL looks less like a coffee shop and more like those fully-furnished model rooms at CB2 that make you feel bad about your own interior design skills (or lack thereof)... The hygge vibes of natural wood and abstract paper lanterns make for an incredibly relaxing work session, as long as there's a seat available among the single long table and couple of small ones." She also opined, "If you're looking for somewhere to get work done in First Hill, URL is an oasis in a neighborhood full of hospitals."[5] In 2023, Rizzo included URL in the website's list of the city's best cafes for working,[6] and she and Kayla Sager-Riley included the Walk to Work in an overview of Seattle's besticed coffee. The duo wrote, "we can vouch that it's perfect for walking to work".[7] Rizzo and Gabe Guarente included the business in a 2024 overview of Seattle's best coffee shops.[8]
InEater Seattle's 2023 overview of recommended cold brews and seasonal coffee drinks in the city, Rachel Hopke and Harry Cheadle said Choi's experience as a furniture collector "comes through in the attention to design detail and meticulously crafted beverages".[9] Cheadle and Mark Van Streefkerk called URL "a designer's dream" and recommended the tomato ricotta toast in the website's 2024 overview of Seattle's thirteen "essential" coffee shops.[2] Melissa Santos said the sandwiches are "pretty good" inAxios Seattle's 2024 list of nine coffee shops forworking remotely in the city.[3]
