The Vibe
You've heard about The Newstand Coffee, right? It's that little spot downtown with the solid 4.8-star rating, and for good reason. Think bright, airy space with a definite minimalist vibe, usually bustling but never chaotic. They're known for their expertly pulled espresso drinks and a rotating selection of local pastries; the almond croissant often sells out quickly. It’s perfect for a focused solo work session in the morning, or a quick, casual catch-up with a friend over lunch. Parking can be a bit tricky right out front, so aim for street parking a block or two away, especially around the noon rush. If you’re there for coffee, I’d recommend their cortado, and definitely try one of their inventive seasonal lattes.
