- 1
Strip District · $ · No. 50 of 157 overall
Old men arguing in Italian over tiny cups at seven in the morning. No laptops, no oat milk theatre, just the best espresso in the city served the way it should be.
Order: Espresso, standing up
- 2
Lawrenceville · $ · No. 58 of 157 overall
The coffee bar that trained half the baristas in this city. Small, exacting, no interest in selling you a sandwich.
Order: A cortado
- 3
Strip District · $ · No. 86 of 157 overall
The modern counterpoint to La Prima two blocks away: bright, careful, laptop-friendly. Both are right.
Order: A pour-over and a pastry
- 4
Homewood · $ · No. 87 of 157 overall
A community coffee shop that functions as Homewood's living room. Good coffee, better purpose, and worth going out of your way to support.
Order: A latte and whatever is baked
