J.J. Kaye: Get the El Salvador when they have it, it's a little lighter roast but delicious and complex.
KCRW: My favorite Mocha of all time, and you can get it with Almond Milk! Woah nelly! This sweet deal is even better when you use your Fringe Benefits card!
Nora Johnson: Make sure you bring an extra quarter foe the chocolate covered espresso bean machine- nothing goes better with a large iced coffee in the morning!
Tony Sicilian: Chocolate Espresso Brownie Cookies... FOUR WORDS YOU WON'T REGRET!! Get one... NOW! But seriously! Amazing!!
Papereater Elisabet: Delicious local coffee! Really friendly staff :D "It's kinda like being at a bar, but in the morning." A nice place for some AM socializing.
Joseph C: Black Gold's nice & dark. Bold flavor. I'm normally a French Press kind of guy, this was recommended to me by the Very Informative Barista working tonight. Said they have something better Early AM👍
