I LOVE Nicholas Coffee. I have been working near Market Square for over a year now. After my first few months of Starbucks disappointments, I ventured into Nicholas.
They have a very large selection of coffees, teas, and European import items. Their pumpkin spice latte not only tastes like pumpkin pie, but its a full $2 cheaper than Starbucks'. Every day, they make fresh whipped cream, roasted peanuts, and peanut butter.
All of the baristas are extremely friendly and helpful. They also have amusing facebook updates, some of which contain Bill Cosby sweater references. I also enjoy their innovative latte creations (See the 'Batman' themed latte menu I posted).
Nothing to complain about.
