| - No hippies here!
I have nothing against hippies. I love them actually but do you ever feel like every coffee shop is just littered with them? I mean, do you just hang out here all day and take up valuable creative space? I needed to find a coffee joint that was quiet, served kick-ass coffee and baked goods and a comfortable place for me to work.
I found it!!!! Urban Beans is my Easter egg. I was scared this might be one of those ultra modern, cold, coffee shops but while the decor is minimal, the impact it made felt like a firm hand shake that said, "Come in, stay for a while." And that's exactly what I did.
There are so many tables here. No couches, which I thought I would miss, but I actually don't mind. All the chairs are different at every table which gives it an organized antique look. The area rugs bring warmth to it as well. I am set up next to a window, watching people and cars pass by as I "work."
There is also a covered patio for nice days. I can't wait for the weather to warm up a bit so I can try that out.
I ordered a toffee nut mocha and bought some home made toffee. The coffee came to me with a cute foam feather and a tasty coffee too. Not sweet and was a strong coffee. Exactly what I needed.
The toffee is sooooo addicting. A caramel, buttery chunk with nuts and covered in chocolate. I can't wait to try the other cakes and muffins here too.
I commend Urban Beans for making this a great escape from the day.
