Stumptown Coffee Wins my Heart

I live in New York, home to some of the best food in the world. The same can be said about coffee too. There are so many great makers of coffee in this city that it’s sometimes hard to keep up with them all.
A few weeks ago, I walked by Stumptown Coffee Roasters, a place that I had heard about but never ventured to try. I had heard good things, but never realized just how much I’d grow to love their coffee in such a short time period.
The store has its origins in Portland, Oregon, with a few locations throughout the city and some others in Seattle. The founder of the chain moved to New York, and that’s all to our benefit, as the first of a few planned branches has opened here.
I can’t say which of the coffees happens to be my favorite. I might equally love them all, to be honest. What I do know is that patrons all seem to claim that everything there is top notch.
You’d be surprised to know that Stumptown coffee doesn’t really cost any more than you’d pay at a major chain, which happens to be a great thing. The atmosphere, though it lacks seating in this particular location, also seems to be one entirely based around the quality of the coffee.
I’ve never been a regular coffee drinker, but Stumptown seems to be turning me into one. I find myself craving it every day now, and I know that I’m not the only one.
In a city like Seattle, there’s so much great coffee. That’s one of the city’s claims to fame. If avid coffee drinkers are claiming that this is the best around, I’d say that’s a pretty high quality endorsement right there.
If you have a Stumptown near you, consider yourself lucky and try it out. If you don’t, hope that the chain expands, and take advantage of any traveling opportunity you may get and try it out.
