Seattle is a city that runs on coffee. It’s impossible to take even a short walk around any neighborhood in the metro area and not stumble over a handful of cafes and coffee stands. Not all coffee or coffee shops are created equal; There are a variety of criteria upon which any discerning local coffee-addict will choose the brand and location to get their “fix.” One must consider the quality of a brand’s coffee and it’s taste, the design and layout of the cafe, and the overall ambiance and vibe of the shop, and, sometimes there’s also just something special, maybe a bit intangible that sets a place apart, right? Armed with these prerequisites and a blatant disregard for hypertension, we set out to drink our way through the top ten coffee shops in the Seattle Metro Area!
** And, since I spend a lot of my time exploring places due to writing this blog and looking for an ideal place to plug-in and get to work, I’ll give you the skinny on whether or not these make for ideal workspaces.
SO, take a trip around Seattle with me and lets get way too caffeinated – maybe you’ll even find new favorite coffee spot!
