How did I visit Central Coffee for the first time at the Southend location? Not sure, and not sure if it matters. It's great coffee and a great atmosphere. I would call it low key; simple seating, interesting artwork on the walls.
I ordered my favorite caramel latte iced, and it was delicious. I notice they have a lot of baked goodies to munch on ( biscotti, muffins, etc). They have free wifi as well, if you want to stay and do some work, and it's quite enough to read in there.
