    Everything. These baristas are some of the best in the business in terms of knowledge and preparation. They roast locally and take extreme care in their preparation. A+ experience.

    The best cup in town uncontested, but where they really shine is service. All the staff are friendly and personal with superb taste in music. Sit back, relax, and catch some tunes and caffeine.

    Do yourself a favor and ask the hepcats behind the counter to recommend a swell pour over -- they're the experts.

    Really love the cold brew ice coffee here. You can buy it in a resealable bottle, so you can break it out at a moments notice and get your caffeine fix without having to brew up a pot of coffee.

    Best coffee on this side of the hudson, and rivals some of the best coffee houses in NYC, plus they roast their own beans.

    If you like your coffee really hot (temperature wise) then order the pour over Kenyan. Be forewarned though it's very strong.
