Give me Caribou any day of the week over Starbucks. Yeah, I said it. But to be honest, I'd take a small, local coffee place over a chain. But I really do like this Caribou, in Dilworth. It's just a really nice place to grab a cup of joe--nice environment inside (always clean and never too packed, especially if you're not coming in the morning or on a Saturday), friendly employees, lots of places to sit, and an outside area if it's warm or sunny out.
The selection is pretty good--nothing that's gonna blow you away, but definitely solid. Kinda what you'd expect from Starbucks, minus the way-corporate feel. Very good baristas, as far as I can tell.
And if you're hungry for something a little more substantial than the muffins and bagels they have there, walk through the door they share with Bruegger's and grab a bagel!
