    Have a conversation with the friendliest guy on earth at the slow bar and you might score a sample of an unreleased coffee.

    Super coffee in a semi-industrial space. Crowded but not hard to get a table.

    enjoy the ambience of a coffee shop that loves coffee, rather than a makeshift internet café. Unplug, unwind, enjoy their music and a damn good latte.

    Every month or so they have an informative "Brewing Better Coffee at Home" class. Ask about it at the counter!

    On weekends they open an area in the back on Caledonia Alley. Only 1 barista, but no lines so ends up being far faster

    If it's the weekend, skip the line & grab your fix from the back alley. Download Pay with Square to pay w/ your name bc cash is so 2010.

    The "slow coffee" bar is often faster than the regular line. Try refining your coffee palette and ask for tips on how to taste the single plantations

    I wish I wish the pig heads weren't there staring down at us forever but the hot coffee grinders make up for it. And no wireless. Someone is on to something wonderful.

    Don't be discouraged if the line is long; it moves right along, and the coffee is worth the wait. Also... the cuteness of the staff is only exceeded by their niceness.

    Bring your own WiFi, but if you forget, you can sometimes get smidgens of Internets in the very front.
