I love coffee.  I really do.  It’s one of life’s simple pleasures… and every morning, I begin my day with a cup of coffee made with freshly ground beans.

I also love coffee shops.  And especially coffee shops with the following:

  • Good coffee… (obviously)…
  • Freshly baked cakes and/or freshly prepared mini-meals using fresh ingredients…
  • Creative vibe… interesting decor… people-watching opportunities…
  • Free, fast wifi…
  • Manageable noise levels… (and extra points for decent music!)…

I have spent many a happy hour drawing, writing and creating in coffee shops.  Here’s a mini gallery of some art & coffee experiences I’ve enjoyed over the past few years… (just for fun!)
