Waldo, Brookside, Plaza

Waldo

Second Best Coffee: super hip little spot next to Boru. Don’t let the name fool you. It’s good. 

Brookside

Roasterie: This is, I think, their biggest cafe. They have spots around town, but either this one or the one in the Corrigan Station building downtown would have to be my favorite. Local coffee brand with many different roasts (my favorite to this day is the Scottish Highlands). If you're looking for an espresso drink, the Brookside Bob is a great minty option!

Plaza

Kaldi’s - Either location, there are two on the plaza. Do note that both locations are relatively small. The spot on the west plaza has much more outside seating which is great when the weather cooperates. The honey almond cold brew is one of my go-tos during the summer months.
