I heard of them through their great social media marketing and creative drinks they advertise. Downside: Definitely not a great stop to grab and go on your way to work. I stood there waiting just over 10 minutes for a small iced matcha, and it was chunky and not well mixed at all (perhaps because the only barista working was so busy). I tried to mix it more with a hand frother at home and there was just a lot of sticky residue at the bottom of the cup. I couldn't salvage it into something appetizing and just tossed it.

Located across the driveway from…read morethe Claremont Tavern, inside of the house-looking building that is also part of The Bearded Dragon, Goldfinch is a gem of coffee bar. It's just one guy, Gabriel, but he runs a good show. I really enjoy the beans he selects. Often he will offer a shot of what he is brewing today to see if you'll like it. Latte, flat white, cortado, cappuccino - it's all good. The owner is friendly and social, and if you stop in on a weekend morning you'll likely see kids playing card games while their parents watch. It's intimate and social in way that is extremely rare in 2025. If you're shopping for a board game, card game, or gift at the Dragon, you should stop in. If you live in the area, think about making it part of your weekend morning routine. Hours are changing soon to be weekend only, so keep an eye out and don't show up when they're closed!

El Monte Coffee Roasters is one of those solid, dependable spots that does what it's supposed to…read moredo, no fireworks, no overpromising, just good coffee and good vibes. The amaretto iced coffee is smooth, slightly sweet, and easy to drink, and the chocolate chip scone understood the assignment, buttery, loaded with chips, and gone way too fast. Inside, you've got shelves stacked with coffee jars like a caffeine apothecary, burlap coffee sacks casually flexing their single-origin credentials, and just enough cozy chaos to remind you this place is serious about beans. Outside, there's a festive little setup with lights, a giant present looking entrance (Santa clearly approves), and a tiny free library because caffeine and books are a power combo. Bonus points for enjoying the coffee from the car like a true commuter philosopher. Is this the kind of coffee that'll change your life? No. Is it the kind that makes your morning better and your drive more tolerable? Absolutely. The two baristas are elite: no small talk, no life stories, just order pour go. Morning efficiency at its finest. Bonus points for Spanish speakers, because coffee sounds better en español. Rápido, directo, sin vueltas

I had the pastrami on rye with a side of homemade potato salad, and it was hands-down the best sandwich I've had in ages--perfectly seasoned, stacked high, and served on fresh, crusty bread. You can really taste the care that goes into every item here. Whether you're stopping in for a quick lunch or picking up dinner to go, this deli delivers on all fronts: flavor, quality, service, and value. It's the kind of place that turns first-time visitors into regulars. Highly recommended!

With such a large breakfast and lunch menu, it should be called something else like "Where Everybody knows Your Name". I could not believe all the high fives flying around. It's a relatively small shop with both booth and counter service. Clean with pictures covering one wall. I ordered the waffle with honey and assorted fruit ($10.00) and a cup of coffee ($2.75). Yes, it was sweet but that is why I ordered it. I have to say it was also delicious. If ever I'm in the area at lunchtime, I'm going to order the pastrami sandwich ($18). It is loaded with pastrami.
