Flor Coffee and Books

Georgetown, Washington DC The wife and I took a quick trip into Georgetown just to get out. I found this coffeeshop on a little side street and thought we would give it a try. They advertise as being a Buenos Aires inspired cafe. I've never been to Argentina, but I liked Flor. It was crowded, but it was also a Saturday...

Black Crown Coffee

Tucson, AZ Needed a morning pickup and this was relatively close to the facility my mom is in. A little run down inside and they were blasting death metal music, but the dude was friendly and they roast their own beans. The son and I ordered their signature iced mocha, called the Tarheel. Very tasty!

Attendant

London UK I’m so glad we got a chance to go here. It’s an old, underground Victorian toilet that they’ve turned into a cafe. The porcelain urinals (pronounced ur-I-nahls) are a table now. It has a cool entrance too. Very fun. We got an iced oat mocha and an oat cappuccino. I really liked the cappuccino and the wife’s...

199F Coffee

London UK Tried this little (very little) spot just down an alley across Oxford St. from our flat. I walked past it at first because it shares the space with a currency exchange business. It was one man behind a tiny desk. We got a cappuccino and a mocha. Both were pretty good! I also grabbed a croissant which was still...

Awecherry Coffee

Alexandria, VA This little coffee trailer parks right next to Goodies Frozen Custard. Unfortunately it's hit or miss as to when it's there. I ordered an iced oat mocha that was excellent. I've made it a point to stop by if they're ever parked there.

Aqus Cafe

Petaluma CA We were on our way back from Point Reyes Station and the son wanted a coffee, so he found this place in Petaluma. It’s in the Foundry Wharf area and is a cute little neighborhood looking spot on the corner. The order counter is a bar and the prices were very reasonable. He and I both got an iced coffee and...

Avid Coffee

Petaluma CA The wife and I stopped in Petaluma after a day at Dillon Beach with the brother-in-law and family. I needed a little pick-me-up and this coffee shop was only a block away from where we parked. It had a healthy number of people hanging around with drinks for a Friday afternoon. I ordered an iced mocha with...

29th Parallel Coffee

Fairfax Station, VA This little cafe is in the shopping center on 123 that has the post office. Our experiences here have been hit or miss. One time we showed up during hours and they were closed. We both got an oat milk mocha. They were mostly oat milk. Both the coffee and the mocha were very weak. I think the trick is...

Amarin Coffee and Bakery

Chincoteague VA I had a long birthday weekend in Chincoteague. We rode bikes from the Airbnb To Amarin for a morning coffee. There pastry selection was limited because it was almost 1100 when we arrived. They don't make "mochas" but they have mocha syrup that you can have in a latte or macchiato. They have oat milk....

Farmer's Union Coffee Roasters

Eugene OR We found this place when we visited a friend in November 2021 and liked it. We were back today for our friend's memorial and had time to kill. We sat and enjoyed a rose latte (the wife) and a vanilla latte with a coffee cake muffin (me). The building likely used to be a warehouse which has been converted to...
