Directions

A welcoming neighborhood cafe on 3rd Ave South known for silky, carefully made coffee drinks and handmade sandwiches. Order the Babu Latte (try it half-cardamom/vanilla), Golden Branch, or Spinach Egg Soufflé—reviewers came back multiple days in a row. The outdoor patio is lovely, but there are no outlets if you're planning to work there.
