What to expect at a coffee shop

Coffee shops and cafes run from drive-through espresso stands and national chains to independent roasters and neighborhood cafes with pastries, light breakfast and lunch. Many double as workspaces with Wi-Fi and outlets, while others focus on quick takeaway service.

What to order

  • Drip coffee or a pour-over – the best way to taste a roaster’s beans
  • Latte or cappuccino – the most ordered espresso drinks
  • Cold brew – smoother and stronger, especially popular in summer
  • A pastry or breakfast sandwich – many cafes bake in house

Good to know

  • Mobile ordering skips the morning line at chains and many independents.
  • Plant-based milks and extra shots usually add a small charge.
  • Some cafes limit laptop use at busy times – look for posted policies.
