Eastern Market's best coffee. If you plan to get some work done don't go in with high expectations as there is not much seating indoors.

Get a latte with a perfect espresso to milk with fluffy, cloud like foam. Latte art free of charge.

Great coffee and the baristas are nowhere near as pretentious as those at Murky where.

Get the bela lugosi. You'll never crave a pumpkin spiced latte again, unless they make one at Peregrine.
