Drip has given me a reason to get up early on saturdays and sundays, no matter what time I get to bed. I used to sleep in, but no longer.
The coffee is fantastic. Organic or Fair Trade? I think so. But who cares, it's so delicious.
The food is consistently amazing. Also organic. But best of all, it's just the right amount and not pricey.
The music selection is always different and pleasant.
The ambiance is wonderful.
The owners and staff are great people and are always up for talking.
Also, unlike other coffee shops, where people sequester themselves, twittering away or burying their noses deep in text books and beat novels...
Drip encourages community between its patrons. BUT if you want/need to escape, appear mysterious, or "read" your book....you can always go into their spare room, which is more dimly lit and aptly designed for your hermitage needs.
Highly recommended.
