Stellar Coffee Co.

The place was comfortable to have a break, big space, the tables and chairs were well-organized. Also, the coffee that the waiter served me taste good.

Wow! Amazing, tasty hot and cold beverages. I was able to sample a peanut butter/ banana protein smoothie that was outstanding. I also had the best mocha in my life here. Who knew it could be this good!

Patrick makes the best Chai in town! Dirty or not, it's mega-tasty!

I am a coffee geek, (literally), and espresso, more specifically. so I ordered my favorite... a double shot of espresso, straight up, no milk or sugar. their equipment was first rate, but that is not always an assurance of good espresso, but at least it's a good sign. the secondary accouterments were not quite top shelf. ie: the portafilters were not bottomless, the barista did not weigh the grounds, or the pour. further, he banged the portafilter a few times, settling the grounds. but he DID do a proper 30lb tamp, AND he watched the whole pour, which was a good sign. A conscientious barista would dump out a bad pour and make a new one. most important is how it tasted. it was... FABULOUS! sweet and caramelly, and had less bitterness than I can recall in a long time. i consider "sweet and caramel" espresso flavors to be traditional, not cutting edge, but that is fine with me. that's how i like it. they are co-joined by a bakery, so their pastries are fresh and good.
