. "I feel stupid when I go here. \n\nI'm a lifelong coffee addict, so I appreciate good coffee, which they definitely have. And although I do appreciate that the staff is knowledgeable, they do come off as pretentious. \n\nI definitely felt pressured to get a plain espresso (which I didn't want to drink, really) for fear of being judged for being uncultured. Then I had to sit in the corner and look like an asshole just drinking an espresso in the middle of the day like it was no big deal. I mean, this is America people!\n\nIt was worse for the woman in line in front of me though, who ordered a coffee and asked if they have flavored syrup and the baristas looked at her like she just ordered a side of dead baby. \n\nBasically: coffee is good, but make sure you know what the hell you're doing when you go here!"^^ .
