There is nothing quite like the aroma of coffee in the morning, in the afternoon, and for some… at night.
Some of us will go out of our way for just the perfect cappuccino, the fullest café latte, and some are all about the richest beans.
My guess is you have a preferred haunt with the best barista that you tell all your friends about.
If not, here are a few recommended places to check out. Go to their websites for other offerings like the Smelly Cat’s Chia Tea or Mama’s specialty foods. You may enjoy your visit more if you call them to confirm if they have Wi-Fi or not. Some of us cannot drink our cup of joe without an iPad or phone.
I would have listed these alphabetically to insure my list is incorrect next to your list, but instead they are provided geographically so you can choose the coffeehouse nearest you.
