Best coffee and great service

by denisebrown100 at Citysearch

One of my all time favorite coffee places, great service and great atmosphere! Try the Berkely blend late in the afternoon its a real pick me up. Also if you're in the mood for a little extra kick ask for a couple of "shots" of espresso.

• Pros: Nice quiet and sophisticated
• Cons: Location is hidden. You have to know where to find it.

Better than Broadway

by ex_mousekteer at Citysearch

I much prefer going here for coffee and beans, even though I live close to the one on Broadway. They are much friendlier and the service is great. Perfect latte every time. I also like the little Italian bistro feel to the place. Perfect and cozy in winter.

• Pros: Friendly staff, Quick
• Cons: parking, Small

BEST COFFEE ANYWHERE

by javajames at Citysearch

The coffee and presentation might actually be better here than at the Broadway shop. Like its sister shop it fits in perfectly with its urban setting; clean, vibrant, & sophisticated which makes it a perfect match for financial district heavies or State Street shoppers. The place gets packed, but hang in there the service is outstanding, fast, and professional. Milk drinks are prepared with "latte art" which is actually quite beautiful... But, above and beyond everything the coffee is the absolute best!

• Pros: Great coffee, Efficient service, Downtown chic
