Starbucks

Some parking is paid metered

Very nice baristas and pleasant atmosphere. They have some little tables outside which is charming or you can walk back toward the brook. I had a decaf Mocha made just the way I like it and it was a relaxing little mini-break.

The location is nice, and the baristas were nice, but I wasn't entirely happy with the service. Maybe it was just an off day for them. I ordered something simple: a grande nitro. People after me ordered several hand crafted drinks that are far more involved (I was a former barista at another location, so I have an idea of how long some drinks take to make). Somehow those drinks all came out well before mine and they were working on other drinks that were ordered after them before I had to interrupt and inquire about my simple coffee on tap. Turns out they just left it right by the tap and forgot about it. The place was not terribly busy, so there isn't really an excuse for it. I'm not from the area, so I'm hoping this isn't a trend here.

Mmmmm....peppermint mocha with soy milk.
