I'll throw out a possibility.

Younkers i can do. its just about 50 miles to there from my house. if i can plug in there (do they have charging?) for about 60-90 minutes and ride with someone to Starbucks that would work.

Sounds like a safe bet.
Here is an alternate place. Has the best Yelp rating of coffee shops nearby. I've not been there. Problems - need to park nearby, since they don't have a parking lot and have to pay in cash.

Same here. Apart from the bad coffee you get at *$s.DaveinOlyWA said:
There is also the Burian Press which is closer to you - not sure whether you can make it there and back without recharge.

Limited on-street Parking, but reportedly there is an "open" lot at 225 S Logan Ave. ?? ... and some other parking just a "few blocks" away?
A "smaller" establishment, probably OK for smaller groups.
Apparently it has WiFi available.
CASH only, no "charging"!
Enjoy, and please let us know how it works out.
If you are bringing a LEAF, you might call ahead and see if the owner (Mike, I think) can "reserve" a parking spot right in front of his cafe, for your special "attraction". Just an idea.
It's on a one-way street, I think.

How about the big blue and yellow box in south Renton? Wifi, acres of free parking and breakfast served at 9 am on Saturday, Swedish pancakes and Lingonberries $1.99 and scrambled eggs and bacon $.99, and I can charge it. Store opens at 10 am. Eco-sensitive retailer. They might feature the Leafs in their covered parking area near the entrance. I'll have to stop there anyway if my significant other hears that there is a reason to go to Renton.

Let's do it. I'd rather go indi as well over Bucks and glad to see a decent option. Downtown Renton is old stomping grounds so I think this is great.
Anytime that day works for me but given that Dave is coming from Olympia - Noon as a time or does someone have a strong preference for earlier?
and I'll have my LEAF by then as well. Younker has four charge stations total and I believe two are out front. I'll know soon enough.
Dave - I'd be happy to meet up earlier at Younker and carpool you over.

Since we are meeting for coffee & not lunch, I prefer a slightly later timing. 1:00 PM.SeattleBlueLeaf said:
If there are enough Leafs - we could all meet at Younker & go in a Leaf procession !

Are people open to 1/6 instead of 1/5, if forecast says 1/6 is better than 1/5 ? We won't have good forecast until 1/2 or so.
