Gold Cup is the spot for real coffee lovers - their go-to beans have floral tones. I recommend their avocado toast!

Try the color-changing tea (they'll know the one) and a salmon and caper crepe for lunch, or a seasonal flavor latte and one of the baked goods! You can't go wrong here!

Worth the Drive
These may be further than 30 minutes away, but they're worth it!
This may be a far distance with traffic, but it's worth it! Paired with the Michelin star winning Din Tai Fung restaurant, this is a mall like no other.
Boom Crepes
9432 Southwest Washington Square RoadThis may be a far distance with traffic, but it's worth it! Paired with the Michelin star winning Din Tai Fung restaurant, this is a mall like no other.
Such a unique thing to have a Michelin star restaurant in a mall... but it is an unforgettable experience in my book! Worth waiting in line to get in for! Pair this with Boom Crepes!

Barista is where baristas go to drink coffee.
It's not budget-friendly, but you won't find a better tasting brew.
While you're here, 23rd is a safe place to get a taste of more local flavors. Try Little Burger place nearby and get ice cream dessert at Ruby Jewel's or Salt & Straw! If you're more of a baked goods kinda person, dessert at Papa Haydn *if you have room for their enormous portions!*

The culinary delights of Tusk are legendary. If they ever bring back brunch, you've absolutely got to go. I took my mom here and we literally were seated next to the cast of Portlandia.

Sightseeing
Have you dreamt of having Egyptian coffee whilst people watching atop a covered double decker bus?
No? Well, you haven't lived until you've visited here! Order an Egyptian coffee, the Mint Thing (whole milk is best with this one), and your coffee drink of choice. You won't regret it!

The Waterfront has recently been renovated and it's a beautiful place to bike, walk, run, or play a game on the lawn! Many great restaurants! Avoid the Yard Milkshake Bar - the flavors don't justify the prices. Kafiex isn't that great either, but you can't go wrong anywhere else!
