My foodie and coffee snob friends rave about Midtown Coffee, so I know their coffee and espresso drinks are very good. Myself, I must confess I've only had their espresso, but it's that stellar espresso that keeps me coming back! I gotta give it 5 stars on that alone, because espresso this good is VERY hard to find.
When I try a new coffee house, I order a double espresso shot and dare them to impress me, as it'll glaringly reveal any compromise in technique or quality. Impress me they did!
