Directions

Move Along Coffee is a walk-up window café on West Grand serving excellent specialty coffee from Gaslight and inventive pastries that change regularly. Get the croissants, donuts (try wild blueberry caramel corn or lemon poppy seed), and seasonal drinks—the owner personally chats with regulars and even has dog biscuits for four-legged visitors. Fair warning: there's often a line and wait, but regulars say it's absolutely worth it.
